TILE Address.

The address OF Chairman LEONARD to
the Democracy o. West Virginia appears
in the REGISTER this morning., and is a
timely appeal to the party to follow up
their MAGNIFICENT victory in October
with an increased majority in Novem-
Der.
We have no fear, nor has Mr.. LEON
ARD, that the Democrats cannot easily
carry the State next Tuesday, and nofears
that they will not, except it were by being
deluded by their opponents into an in
difference about going to the polls,
through the certainty OF carrying the
State, or by entering into the schemes OF
pairing and trading, which our oppon-
ents are Offering on every hand.
There will he money, too, rs Mr..
LEONARD and the REGISTER have al
ready advised, doing its work wherever
such methods can be usel with safety.
But West Virginia cannot be bought.
Neither DO We want TO see the Demo
cratic majority reduced by such intiu-
ences. Let every voter do his duty on
next Tuesday.

Is their desperate anxiety to dis
prove the GARFIELD letter the Republl-
cans are proving entirely too much.
The first reiutation OF the letter which
they attempted was to charge that an
educated man like GARFIELD would not
write "companys" when he meant
companies" but now theytry to tas'en
the letter as q forgery upon anewspaper
writer, who is just as much OF an edu-
Gated man as GARFIELD. Ii it Is I'M
likely that GARFIELD would mis-spell a
word when writing a hasty letter, 1t Is
still more unlikely that the editor,
whom they charge with forgery, would
have made such mistake in the course
OF the deliberate and careful work which
forgery involves.

VOTE OF THE FIRST CONGRESS
SIGNAL DISTRICT.

An examination OF the vote IN the
counties comprising the First Congress
sional district, makes more favorable
exhibit for the Democratic party than
did the October election in 1876.
We have returns rom all the counties
OF the district except Peasants, and in
that county We use the returns OF the
election in 1876. The returns of the
Greenback yot, are lackin. from three
counties Of the district, and We use Mr.
BAssEL'S vote in 1873, for those counties
The total vote of the district in the
late election, is 59,ill, against a total oi
3,i)5, in 1876, showing an increase in
the total vote OF 6,O$j
The total Democratic vote is 1853,
against total OF Ii, 9D in 1870, showing
an increase of the Democratic vote in
$50 of Loss.
The total Republican vote is 1922,
against a Total of Is, 465 in 1876, showing
an increase in the Republican total of
4j7.
AS there was no Greeabacl candidate
in the field in 1876, We make COMPARE
sons in the Greenback vote Of this year
with the Congressional vote OF 1873
The total Greenback vote this year is
1896, against 4,OS7 in 1873, showing a
Greenback loss OF 1872.
JACSSOS's plurality in the district,
over SrURGIss, is l,70l, against MArn.
Ews' majority in 1876, OF AS, showing
an increase over MATHEWS majority in
favor OF JACKSON of ] ,226.
The result OF the election in this dis
triet is, therefore, very gratifying to the
Democracy in any aspect in which it is
viewed. 1t shows Democratic increase
in the total vote; an increased plurality
over the Republican candidate; and a
larger proportion OF gain on the total
vote than either OF the other parties.
Col. Wilson has steadily asserted
during his canvass that he is stronger in
the district than he was in 1878, and
the recent election tends to confirm
his view Of the situation. The returns
from Peasants county and the Green
back vote in the three counties not re-
ported, cannot materially change the re-
suits We have given above, and they
certainly::give the Democratic candidate
for Congress in this district a better
showing than he had in 1878.

A MAoNrFIcENr vINDICATIoN.

The magnificent majority given the
Democratic candidate for Governor by
the party in the State, is not only mat
ter OF congrstulation on the one hand,
but on the other, is stiEs ng rebuke to
the bitter. malicious, persistent and will
ful misrepresentation and abuse with
which the Wheeling Int,Hgencer, the
Parkersburg Journal. and other papers
OF the extreme Radical type, pursued
him through the campaign.
The vote is the largest and the ma
jority in excess of that ever given cam
didate for Governor by the Democratic
party in the State. There is no locality
in the State where these Radical roor-
backs seem to have affected the vote.
The Journal is still trying TO show that
its abuse and malice carried Wood coun-
Nv against Mr.. JACKSON. But the result
in that county throws no discredit upon
Mr.. JACKSON.
He did not run behind the Democrat
ic ticket, as these papers are trying to
make the public believe. lie received
2,l4S votes in the county; and although
Messrs. LEONARD and SHARP for dele
gates to the Legislature, and McCLrEE,
for prosecuting attorney, carried the
county over their opponents, yet neither
of them received as many votes as MIR.
JACKSON did. In fact, no one OF the
county candidates received as many
votes as JACKSON did, except his
brother, who was candidate for Judge
The loss OF the county by sixteen
votes was due entirely to the ma
nipulation OF the Greenback
vote by the Republicans. The Green
hackers polled S2S votes at the late cleo
ton. Two years ago their vote was over
LOO. The loss was occasioned by the
Republican element Of that party voting
the Republican ticket, leaving the Dem
ocratic element to vote the Greenback
| ticket. Three-fourths oil the Greenback
party in that county is OF Demo
cratic antecedents. Had the Dem
ocratic Greenbackers voted with the
Democrats, the county would have been
carried by two or three hundred. Many
OF them now see the error OF their ways,
and will not be fooled again, but will
help carry the county for HANCOCK and
WILSON next Tuesday.
So will it be, We think, all over the
State. The Democratic Greenbackers,
will not be inveis'ed into another Re-
publican trap. They will help swell the
Democratic majority which West Nir-
ginia will give to HANCOCK and ENGLISH
at the November election.

Loo. IA the weight on the false bottom
was diminished by the transfercncc of tho
cargo, the machinery in connection with
the torpedo was set free, and in moment
800 pounds of dynamite was exploded and
tho Loa was almost lifted out of the water.
The effect, as described by those who were
watching the operation from the shore,
was awful in extreme. Every house in
Callao was shaken to its foundation, and
every ship in the bay shivered as though n
fearful earthquake had spent it's fury be-
meath them. The fated ship appeared as
envcloped in one mass of flame, which re-
solved itself into dense clouds of black
smoke. When this cleared away she
seemed not TO have suffered, but suddenly
she was seen to sink Mt the stern, while
her bows were high in the mir, aud the Loa
disappeared forever. Boats from neutral
vessels picked mp about 40 of the Loo's
crew the rest, to the number of SO or
more persisted. Tho foa was an English
built iron steamer Sho was armed with
one longrauge seventy-pounder and four
smaller pieces, and Mt the time of founder
ing had on board two long-rangc seventies,
which were to have been mounted on the
ronclad Bianco Encaiada, lao tons of
shot and shell, and miscellaneous cargo

Wrecks.

The American bark Eric the Red, from
New York, with general cargo for Sydney
and Melbourne, including large number
of exhibits for the International Exhibition,
became total wreck ON the outer end of
Cape Otway reef on Sept. 4th, at halEpast
/ in the morning. There were two pas
seugers on board, one of whom was saved,
and the other drowned. Captain Allan,
with the chief and second officers, and nine
teen of the crew, were saved, but the car
penter, steward, and one seaman were
drowned. The ship, which is vessel of
1880 tons, has entirely broken mp, and
great quantities of cargo are floating about.
The Orient steamer .Sornta, 40l4 tons,
from London, having called at Adelaide,
and landed mails, passengers, and cargo
for that port, resumed her voyage on the
evening of September 8, and went ashore
mile from Cape Jervis Lighthouse, South
Australian coast, at half-past o'clock
the same night, and became total wreck.

A Peruvian Internal Machine.

On tho Bird of July the Chinan transport
steamer Loa WAS destroyed in Callao Bay
by an ingenious and effective torpedo
boat. A Peruvian officer took an ordinary
fruit boat, put torpedo in tho bottom,
and over this he placed false bottom,
resting on springs kept down by the
weight Of the cargo. He then loaded il
with choice assortment Of camotes. yu-
cas-, chirimoyos, grandillas, fowls, Turkeys,

The Pacific Mail Steamships.

The Pacific Mail Steamship Company
does not allow the grass to grow under its
feet. 1t has been, and is still, casting about
to improve the service in every possible
way to counteract the efforts of the p. and
o. Company and the Orient line. com.
pany which shows itself disposed to adapt
itself to circumstances, and offer increased
facilities to those whom it is intended to
serve, is entitled to assistance and support.
Possessing a monopoly, the Pacific Mail
Company might content itself with giving
barely what the contract requires of it, and
pocket as much of the subsidy as possible.
1t looks further ahead than that, with
confidence that the opportunities before it
are such as to afford encouragement for
energy and improvement. An accelera-
ton of speed to the extent which is feast.
BILE, is not possible at the present time, but
the company is making its arrangements,
and the time is understood to be near when
the period of transit will be materially re-
duced by the modification of the overland
journey and the saving of time at New
York and San Francisco. Awaiting the
completion Of these arrangements the COM
pany has done that which is Immediately
possible, and taken large step in advance.
1t matters not that this is the result of the
sharp competition of the Orient line, the
gain is none the less to be appreciated.
Very considerable numbers of passengers
whose destination was this colony have
been brought by the Orient line, and under
these circumstances the Pacific Mail Com
pany have reduced their passenger tariff to
a rate which it is expected will render the
| San Francisco route the more desirable
1t has no such disadvantage ms that of the
passage of the Red Sea, and many advan-
tages for those who desire to see as much
as possible, and enjoy the change which a
visit TO Honolulu, the journey by the over.
land railway, a sight Of San Francisco and
New York, aud the voyage in speedy ves-
sells across the Atlantic afford. The rate
for first-class passengers has been reduced
on various occasions, and further reduc-
ton has been made to EGG, while the steer.
age has been reduced to E37 los. Other
reductions for passengers have been made,
and, in addition, all freight charges have
been diminished. Competition has not
been the only cause of these changes. II
seems that both the Government and manu-.
facturers Of the United States are bccom.
ing constantly more impressed With the
importance Of the Pacific Mail line as .
trade medium. and the latter are bent upon
! extending their transactions with New
Zealand aud Australia, especially in cotton
goods. With this strength Mt its back the
company can see it's way To put its best leg
forward, aud hence to some extent the
change in its passenger and freight charges.

The Bank Of Virginia has made an
assignment Of its affairs to @. Daniels
former Cashier. BE was selected because
he was more convsrsant with the busi'
ness Of the concern than anyone eise'
and can do what will now be required at
less cost than Il could be done by any
outsider. The creditors will have the
privilege Of appointing q committee
to overhaul the books and accounts ;
also, IL they shall see DIT. they may
appoint . man to stay in the otice
with Mr.. Daniels right along and
sec that all Is conducted properly.
Mr.. jackson. President, thinks that
with proper management by the assignee
and q little advance in stocks-sueh as
we may now hope for-the affairs Of the
bank may be wonnd up within the next
90 days in such = way that the creditors
will get all. or nearly all, that Is due
them. Its trouble arose from carrying
stocks for persons on very slender mar.
gins at Q time when crashes were the
order Of the day.
