A POLITICAL WHlRlWlND WHICH
HAS STARTLED THE COUNTRY.
When lanes G. Blaine is Beaten in Maine,
What Must Be the Fate Of Gar
field in 0hio?"
COL. ALEX. MCCLURE OH The RESULT.

Col. Mcclure, OF the Philadelphia
inns, the publisher OF an independent
paper, and personal friend and ardent
admirer of James G. Blaine, sums up
the signal AMI crushing defeat sustained
by the Radical party in Maine in man
ner anything but reIssuring to Garfield,
and the corrupt and dishonest crowd OF
politicians who are endeavoring to boost
him into the Presidential chair. His
predictions OF the certain defeat in store
for that organization, both at the Octo-
Der election, and In the grand final
struggle in the succeeding month, will
carry the conviction to every intelligent
and careful reader that the days of Re-
publican rule are numbered, and that
the solid Democracy OF the country will,
from this time forward, press on to GER
tain victory.

HAVANA, Sept. l5.-Rev. Mr.. Merino,
the newly elected President, took charge
OF the Government of Santo Domingo,
September |. In the inaugural address
referring TO foreign relations, the Pres
ident declares he will endeavor to enter
an as intimate union as possible with
the Spanish and American Re-
publics, and will exert his power to
attain such union. Regarding the rea-
tions with the Vatican, he says that, as
President, lIe will especially seek to be
the head oithe people, which, profess
ing TIE most advanced liberal doctrines,
considers il at tie same time its highest
glory to be essentially Catholic, and hav-
ing relied constantly in the union
of the church, has never faltered
in its sentiments OF profound
adhesion to the sovereign plaintiff. No
alluson is made to the United States.
President Merino has formed the fol-
lowing cabinet: Ulysses Hurreaux,
Minister OF Marine; Bilini, Minister OF
the Interior and Police; Eiso Grallor,
Minister of Justice and Public lnstruc-
ton; A. Boscoinetz, Minister OF Treas
ury and Commerce.

LATER AND MORE DEFINITE RETURNS

Up the the hour of going to press
three o'clock this morning-the returns
from the Maine election do not indicate
any material change in the result, as
announced heretofore. The rout OF the
Radicals is no less complete. and the
Democratic victory is no less glorious
presaging, as it does, a second and
grander triumph in November-than
was hcralded to the world by previous
dispatches from the far Eastern State
which has, for so many years, been reck-
oned as "safe" for the Republican ticket.
The complete figures will probably not
come to hand for day or two, but this
mornings intelligence establishes Plais.
ted's election and reiterates the fact that
Ridicalism in its old time stronghold, and
under its dozen leaders, can not hold its
own against the rising tidal wave OF De
mocracy which is destined to sweep the
country from ocean to ocean.

CoLoGNE's GREAT CATHEDRAL.

It's Dedication Set for October l5th-A
Buildi Winch Cost About 100000
OO0-lts Towers the Highest in the
Worli.
New YORK, September IA Berlin
dispatch to the London Times says:
BY Cabinet order the emperor has
appointed the 18th of October next as
the date for the ceremonies OF consecra.
ton and opening OF the lately finished
Cologne Cathedral, when His Majesty
and most members oi his house will
honor the occasion by their presence.
The date appropriately selected is the
birthday OF Frederick William ", the
Emperor's deceased brother, to whose
piety and love OF art was due the resump.
ton of the architectural labors, which
were so auspciously brought to an end
about two weeks ago.
Curiosity, Of course, is busy conject-
uring whether the elected Archbishop
will appear with all his clergy in their
robes OF office, but in any case the cere-
mony will he digniiied and imposing, as
recording the triumph Of German perse-
verance and German art.
Viewed from financial point, the
noble edifice represents an enormous
amount OF capital. 1t is calculated that
the sums applied to its completion since
1871 from public and private sources
must amount TO about lS,C00,000 marks,
which, added to the previous outlay,
will give grand total OF 49,.
100000, or over E2,0OG.00O. In
point OF altitude, too, the towers
OF the cathedral are unequaled by any
in the world, being 100 metres high,
their closest competitor being the spirc
OF the st. Nicholas Church, in Ham
burg, being III metres. Then comes st.
Peters, in Rome, with li3; the Stras.
burg Minister, IT.; the CheOps Pyramid,

Cologne Cathedral is nearly twice as
high as the last named imposing editice.

A FEARFUL CRIME.
WHOLESALE lYNCHING IN ROBERT
SON COUNTY, TENN.
Eight COIOred Murderers TorcibIy Taken
from the Authorities By an Armed
mob-0ne Shot a'j the
Others Hung.
THE PERPETRATORS ARE UNKNOWN.

A terrible story comes from Tennes-
see. Before daylight yesterday morn.
ing, at Saddlevile, small town in Rob
ertson county, a mob OF one hundred
or more armed and disguised men bat
tered down the Jail door, secured
seven or eight negro murderers confin-
ed in the building, riddled one OF them
with bullets before leaving tse house,
and then marched out OF town with the
remaining wretches on horseback at the
head OF their column, and strung them
all up together to the branches of a
forest tree. According to our dispatches,
none OF the perpetrators OF this most
diseraceful outrage are known, but the
authorities should be untring in their
efforts to ferret them out and bring
them to justice.
A dispatch from Nashville, at 2:30
this morning, states that but three of
the negroes were killed. The remain.
der are still in the hands of the author
tiles, but it is feared the mob will re.
turn and finish their work OF death.

Tie Testimony FOR the Defense.
DgKAIB, Miss, Sept. l5-The trial
Of Virgil AMI Houston Guly on the
charge of the murder Of John p. Gi!mcr
in 1877 is progressing. The State Eas
closed its case, having examined ten
witnesses. In the tria! one year ago
OF Henry Gully, for the murder Of
OF CornelIa Chisholm he was acquitted.
The pan OF prosecution then was Ia -
tabIish conspiracy. That plan is Tow
abandoned. The States proof so far is
that Virgil Gully fired the first and sec
ond shos. Witnesses ior the defense
testify Vergl fired neither the first nor
second shots, because they were III con-
yersation at the time. One witness
(Hopuer) for the State testified that he
was in jail at the time GlImcr was
killed, and saw Houston Gully shoot at
him after he was down.
Walker Morrison, for the defense, tes-
titled that he was in jail with Hooper.
Tnev were looking at the crowd, three
hundred yards away, through a glass in
the iail window, and could distinguish
no one in the crowd of one hundred
men or more. lie did not see Houston.
Witness Harvey testifies that Houston
was near him all the while; that HOus-
ton had uo gun, and he is certain he did
not shoot at Gi'mer.
Witness WaddIr testiiics, that after
two shots he saw William Gully run out
OF the back door Of his store in
the direction Gilmcr had gone, and after
raising his gun to his shoulder at once
disappeared from view behind thr.
corner of store. In an instant after lie
heard the report OF a gun at the back of
that house. This was the third and last
shot. 1t was supposed at the time that
VIM. Gully fired it, but was not sure.
The defense closed here.

Important Decision.

LOUISVILLE, KY, September 10
judge Jackson rendered an important
decision in the liquor cases to-day. He de-
cides that the general law passed by the
Legislature does not supercede the
special law under which Louisville Is
governed and does not, therefore, apply
10 the city, since her court is State and
not municipal couIt. 1t has no iuris'
diction Of an offence punishable only by
municipal enactment. This ruling null
lilies what is known as the Gathrlght
amendment So lar rs Louisville is con-
cerned, and admits the question OF sun
day legislation to the city council whose
enactment must be enforced by the mu-
nicipal courts.
