have been given. But by his action he
caught tiger instead of lamb. In
stead, therefore, of conquering political
circumstances for his party's advantage
he finds himself scratched and bleeding
at every pore. Not only has he just
discovered that he has been in bad
company, but that public sentiment has
been, from first to last, rigidly set
against the whole affair! He now con-
siders, and perhaps justly, that he has
been a victim of untoward circumstance
es. That he has been rather roughly
caught in the trap set to destroy Gen.
Garfield, we have no doubt but the
trap was set by his own friends.
In recently published letter he be-
means his i'll luck in this affair, think
ing he has been abused by Judge Davis
and that he has really more reason
than Gen. Garfield to ferret out this de-
testable matter and bring the guilty
parties to Justice We are willing to be
charitable to Mr.. Hewitt, believing he
may have told some truth in the case !;
but we shall believe him more still if
now he will put his shoulder to the
wheel and help bring about what he is
pleased to call 'justice." And in the
meantime let him abandon that COM
pany whose whole stock in trade, as he
well knows, is fraud and trickery.

Counting the Electoral Vote.

Congress was hardly organized be-
fore the question OF counting the cleo
toral vote came up. 1t would seem that
both parties anticipated this, and have
gene to Washington with the expecta-
ton of having a rousing time over it.
That such may be the case looks now
quite probable. Both parties appear
something like two mad balls in yard,
both a little cautious, but determined
to pitch into the weak position of the
other at the first opportunity.
Unquestionably, owing to the frauds
in the Southern states within the past
few years, has sprung all of this hula
baloo of counting the electoral vote So
far as we ever heard, no trouble was
ever had in this direction until four
years ago. At that time the Democrats
began to have hopes of power, the first
since the war, and they meant to carry
their ends by hook or by crook. So the
fraud business was inaugurated, by
which Congress and the country was
placed in a most singular position.
Hence, the long wrangle over the cleo
tOral vote affair, which finally ended in
the famous electoral Commission, and
the consequent soreness of the Demo-
cratic party from that day to this. And
now, if the question is not TO be enact
ed exactly upon the same role, it is
likely to be one of some contention, and
may be of unpleasantness.
1t seems to us, that with all the able
men the country will send to Congress,
there ought to be wisdom enough
among them to devise some equable
and just plan of counting the electoral
vote, and forever stop all this fuss and
bother The way the matter has stood
now for four years, has not only left the
country in disagreeable pickle, but
disgrace also. Other nations can with
pretty good grace twit us of engaging
in boys play. The more we think Of
it, the more just it would seem to vote
directly for the President, instead of
using so much machinery, aud going so
many times around nisuoiu Hoods
barn" to come ut simple thing. The
way the matter now stands, only let a
little screw get loose, and the whole
country is entirely at sea, and at utter
loss what to do

Murderous Assault on Rev. DIR. Goodell.

AS Rev. DR.. G.. l.. GoOdell was pass
ing along Tenth street, st. Louis, just
after dark Friday evening, he was as
saulted by one or more Iutfians, knocked
down, and badly beaten about the head
and face. The outcries of the Doctor
frightened his assailants, who escaped.
1t is supposed robbery was their object.
DR.. Goodell managed to get to the
physician was called who dressed the
wounds on his head, but found no bones
broken, and thinks he will recover
soon. He bled profusely and suffered
much pain, and his head and face were
much swollen and discolored but the
next day he was relieved of severe
pain and able to sit up some, and
speedy recovery is expected. The ply
stefan thinks from the wound on the head
that the assailant wore brass knuckles
This murderous and cOwardly as
sault upon peaceable and prominent
citizen, was made in the business part
of the city, probably before seven
o'clock in the evening. 1t proves what
the leading paper of the city said only
a few days previous, that "crime is so
rampant, and the police force so made
quate, that the citizen who goes on the
street after nine o'clock at night takes
his life in his own hands," DR.. Good
ellis many friends east as well as west,
will deeply sympathize with him and
hope for his speedy recovery. Such a
fragrant outrage upon prominent citi-
izen will be likely to arouse the people
of St. Louis to the Importance of some
vigorous measures for the suppression
of crime.
