LAFAYETTE.

For several days past the cool brac-
ing mornings and pleasant evenings
haze suggested the approach OF that
season 50 beautifully depicted by
VIM Cullen Bryant in'his death OF the
flowers, which is rs familiar as
household words 10 all, both in ry thu
and sentiment. This season suggests
to us also u need greatly irell in IL
quiet little couatry village, the alb
sence of TOtca hall. We are not so
very far from n railroad. and ii pre-
pared, we might this TALL and winter
enjoy many a pleasant lecture or en-
tertainaleih, from which We ARE de-
barred, because Of ihis want OF ac-
commodation.
The only break Of any importance
in our nonolinous existence lately
has been the excitement and rejoic-
ing over our Democratic victory in
the State of Maine. Hardly 10 have
been expected yet none the less APP

The Danville Tribune has large

OF war, beneath which is the following.
Tho boys in blue, solid and true.
Their mission plain, 10 carry Maine,
And, despite ingrates, the United

We suppose this means that they

not DO done with the ballot. We
don't believe the sensible portion OF
the Republican party, endorses the
course of the stalwart fools of the
Tribune. If its leaders do they can
just let themselves in and they will
find the Democrats prepared for

A Campaign Lie.

We are surprised to see paper
like the Louisville Commercial take
the position that iae success Of the
Deiaocratic party. means the re.en
.slasement Of the negroes. Nothing
else could be expected Of the Dan
vile Tribune and sheets of that ilk,
but we had given the Commercial
credit for having more sense. As
the matter stands the Commercial
must stand convicted of ignorance or
williul Misrepresentation. The
charge is absurd and contemplate in
the extreme. Gen. Hancock pledges
himself in his letter OF acceptance TO
stand by and carry out the three
amendments TO the constitution on
the subject. There is not single
Democratic leader who would desire
or even think of such a thing. The
past is forever forgotten and the
South desires il to be buried and her
people to live for the future. This is
one OF the desperate campaign
lodges OF the Republicans to scare
the negroes. or course they Know
that no white man with three grains
of sense will believe such stuff.
There will come time when the
negro will see who are his friends.
Four years from this time he will
know more about Democrats, and
Democratic administration Of Nat
ional affairs. Where III the North
has any State done as innch for the
negro of late years as here in Demo.
cratic kentucky2 lie has his vote,
his schools aud his rights, which he i.
TO exercise undisturbed
lie is allowed to sit upon juries and
in every respect enjoys the same
rights, that. white people do, except
That of social equality. Here in this
State, the white people help them to
build their churches and school
houses and in many ways prove
themselves TO be their friends. Away |
With such bosh as putting them back |
INTO slavery. 1t is a lie Of the Re- |
publicans and one that the better
class Of their journals ought to scorn |
10 circulate. .r |

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-The Inter Ocean,
Washington special says that it is impossible
TO tell with accuracy whether Garfield or
Hancock has the largest popular vote. "
what the republican majority in the honse
will he, or whether the senate is democratic
o. republican without the casting vote of the
vice president. AS to the popular vote it
seems near a stand off between the two can
didates, but this is owing to the immense
maJor'ties in the southern states, where the
cols7ed vote was wholly, or in part, suppress
ed. 1t was this that gave Tilden a majority
OF nearly a quarter of a million on the NOM.
lar vote, which the republicans claim was not
a lawful expression of the legal voters. But
in most of the southern states Hancock's ma.
lorlty has been much less than Tilden's while
IN the northern states Garfield's has been mi
formly larger than Hayes. The popular yer-
dict IN the aggregate, if honestly expressed.
would be In favor Of Garfield. If the Cali,
fornia assembly is republican, as now report
ed, ,he senate will certainly be republican by
a small majority.
