An Address from the Republican Ma
tiOnal Executive Committee.

New YORK, Oct. 15.-The Republican
National Committee has issued the fol-
lowing address:
To the Republican Voters of the Union:
The elections of Tuesday last clearly
show that with continued zeal and sys-
tematic effort the Republican triumph
in November will be complete and over
whelming. Our plurality in Ohio is
about $4,000, being a gain of 5000 over
the exceptionally large plurality of 1879,
while the election of fifteen of the twen-
ty Congressman gives us gain of SIX
members.
Our plurality in Indiana reaches about
1000, being gain of $1,000 upon the
Democratic plurality of 1878. In the
Legislature we have majority of four
teen, in contrast with a Democratic ma
jority of twenty-six in the last Legisla-
ture, thus giving us Senator. OF the
thirteen Congressional districts, nine
have been carried, making a gain of
three members.
The result in each State, and especial
ly in Ohio, is conclusive answer of the
people to the false and malignant as
our candidate for President, which have
thus far been the principal weapons of
our opponents, and have been indecently
and shamefully repeated in the address
this day published by their stunned and
demoralized National Committee. Both
of these victories are the result of a
spontaneous uprising of the people who
are in favor of protective principles, en-
lightened legislation and good Govern
ment. That in Indiana has been won in
spite of lavish expenditure of money
by the Democratic candidate for the
Vice Presidency, who was nominated
solely for that purpose, and by Eastern
emissaries, who, in 1876, vadnly attempt
ed to purchase the Presidency, and have
recently traversed that State shouting
against and at the same moment perpe-
trating frauds made possible by the
grossest election laws existing in any
State in the Union, and which were pur-
judicial outrage.
1t is apparent from these results that
if the Republicans relax no exertiOn,
every Northern State will choose Repub-
lican Presidential electors, while it is not
improbable that some of the Southern
States will give their votes for Garfield
and Arthur.
OF the seventeen members necessary
to make the next House of Representa-
tives Republican, eleven are already
gained in Oregon, Vermont, Ohio and
Indiana, and the full result is reasonably
certain. Six Senators, necessary to make
the Senate, with Vice President, Repub-
lican, will probable be secured from the
States of Ohio and Indiana (already
gained), and from Pennsylvania, New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut, yet

to elect. Thus with the Inauguration of
Garfield and Arthur, all the Departments
OF the Government are likely to be Re-
publican once more.
Republicans, however, need to be re-
minded OF the remaining danger. Disap-
pointed Democratic leaders will not
shrink from desperate acts to prevent
full Republican success. They havema-
Jorlties in both houses of Congress, claim
full power over the final Presidential
count, and have steadily refused to Sc
cure peaceable and orderly decision of
doubtful result. Let no possible eff
fort be spared to make the Republican
majority on the electoral vote so large as
10 avert the perils of disputed count
and a majority in the next HOuse of
representatives so decisive that there
can be no conflict in its organization.
BY unremitting exertion, such as have
secured the brilliant achievements in
ONO and Indiana, the Republican party
can defeat the purposes of the reaction
lists, who, IN order to gain political DOW
er and patronage are willing to unsettIe
the resuls of the war for the Union.
change the financial and revenue policy
OF the Government, deranSe the Nation
al currency and jeopardize the thriving
business interests of the country.
hepuDllcan success will on the other
hand hrmly establish throughout the
country free and honest ballot, protec-
ton to life and property, we'll paid and
eOntented labor, activity in all the acri-
cultural. manufacturing. mechanical and
commercial pursuits and will make the
States of our Union prosperous and pow
er1ul beyond those of any other Nation.
By order of the Committee.

The Fashions.

Polo caps to match cloth suits will be
worn this winter.
New dull shades of color are copied
from antique porcelain.
All neck arrangements of lace and
muslin are fashionable.
Wide Directoire collars are worn with
with nearly every costume.
Bracelets are necessity with the
short and demi-lOng sleeves now worn.
Milliners say that bonnets this season
are to be light in color, even for the
street.
Satin dresses with hand-painted fronts
are to be the rage i'll the fashionable
world this winter.
OIl-fashioned shirred sun-bonnets
made of sheer white cambria, trimmed
with fine lace, are worn by English chill
dren.
The strings on small bonnetS are more
frequently tied in bow in the back
over the chignon than under the chin in
front.
Elaborate coiffures are still very fash
ionable, though the close classic style
of hair dressing which admits of but lit
tie decoration is growing in favor.
New cloth wraps intended to cover
the whole dress are made to look like u
nuns dress, with cords and tassels tied
loosely around the waist, a pointed hood
or a pelerine, sometimes both, and
clasps for the neck in the shape of
shells.
Belts are very fashionable indeed and
are becoming wider and wider. Some
are quite plain, others are closely pleat-
ed or shirred. With morning dresses
they are of leather or morocco, but with
more dressy toilets of silk, satin, velvet
or plush.
Chinese and Hindoo designs are seen
upon many of the new dress materials.
Rushes, fans, palms, cranes, dragons and
fishes are among the quaint and bright
ly-colored figures. These goods are con-
sidered very fashionable, but they GER
tainly look very ugly.
Very handsome sashes are made of
doubled breadths of bright oriental fou-
lard, Persian silk or iioriated satin. The
edges of the goods are joined and the
ends gathered and fastened by q silk
tassel. These brightly-hued sashes will
be worn with fall suits of bronze, plum,
navy blue and olive.

THAT General Hancock has been so
closely cOrnered that his value as Il
Democratic presidential candidate is
daily dwindling down and may eyentu-
ally reach nil, is the result of the COM
| bined blunders of himself and of the
Democratic party. Since Grant, in ex-
posing some of the more important facts
of Hancockian history, has followed his
usual practice of hewing to the line, let
chips fly where they may, we get clear
view of this distinguished Democrat,
"crazed to be President" and exhibiting
fair ability as a subordinate military Of
| ficer. But there has perhaps never been
truer test of his character than his re-
mark to Grant that he was opposed to
negro domination" This statesmanlike
| observation chimes In well with the
question that used to be put ten years
ago to men who favored free suffrage:
''Do you want your daughter to marry a
nigger?" That the 100000 of the col
ored race cannot be accorded their rights
as human beings without becoming the
masters of ten times as many whites is
all extraordinarily idiotic proposition !;
but Hancock and his supporters appear
to be unanimous regarding it.

Is English to be Sacrificed ?

The Democratic managers are mad.
They have sins they desire to send into
the wilderness. And they are looking
around for goat and have hit upon
English. A movement is to be made to
get him off the ticket. To be sure he
should not have been nominated. He
would disgrace any party. But he is no
worse now than when nominated. Be
sides, it is too late. The fate of the par
ty is sealed Its overwhelming defeat is
assured. The Waterloo of the Demo
cratic party occurs in November. Too
late now to avoid this. The Democratic
leaders might withdraw their ticket al
together. This would be the sensible
thing to do, but the managers have not
sense enough OF courage enough to do
it. But what vast amount of trouble
it would save them to quietly surrender!
Thus Garfield and Arthur might be
elected without opposition. They are
bound to be elected in any event.
But it is now in order to hunt English
off the ticket and out of the party

A LONG pull, a strong pull, and pull
altogether should be the Republican
motto for the next two weeks. The Re-
publicans are going to carry every
Northern State, but they want to carry
them with such rush that the business
of Solid South will never be attempted
again. That will be the end of section
alism, of State sovereignty, and of the
principles of Lee and Jackson.

BUYERS discriminate sharply against
hogs fattened on new corn us compared
with those which have been fed on old
corn. New corn hogs come between the
old corn hogs and stillers, being more
flabby than the former and more firm
than the latter. Their meat is not so
solid as that of old corn hogs. they drift
considerably more. and consequently
must sell for little less.
