One of Hartford's bright six-year-
old youths, who had sat for some time
apparently absorbed in his fathers con-
versation on the Presidential question,
spoke up and said: "Pa, Bro. Nc. is
for Grant, aint he?" "No, my son
why?" "Cause he said two or three
times i'm his last sermon, Lord grant
u.s."
Our young friend, Gross Williams,
awoke last Saturday morning to the
sad reality of loss of Sl0l i'm green
backs, which he was so unfortunate as
to have burned. On retiring Friday
night he placed his pocket-book con-
tanning the money in his cook stove for
safe keeping in case of burglary, and
when the matter was thought of the
next morning it was only in time to see
the deposit in crisp.

jackson County.

Having spent the whole of last week in
Jackson county we can speak knowingly
of the political situation there. The county
is being thoroughly canvassed, and the
meetings will continue during the present
week. Capt J. H. McKinne, Democratic
candidate for the Senate, with Maj. Mil
ton, Chairman of the County Executive
Committee, Col. Mcclellan and General
Barnes, are doing work which will tell
in November. No one doubts of hand
some Democratic majority. Mr.. McKin-
non, who was at one time spoken of as an
independent candidate for the Senate, has
declined to run, and this assures harmony.
The colored vote is greatly demoralized !;
the leaders do not take kindly to Conover,
and large numbers of their followers will
vote with the Democrats. They say with
truth that they only see Republican from
abroad when their votes are wanted and
besides, their condition has greatly i'm
proved under Democratic government,
notably in the security of their personal
property, from what it was before the
change, and they see no reason why they
should aid by their votes in restoring the
old order of things. With respect to
Conover, one of the most influential col.
ored leaders in the county said that he
knew all about Conover's efforts to defeat
the Republican party in 1875; how he
offered to sell out to the Democrats and
how the Republicans had to buy him off
from being a boiling candidate when
the Democrats refused to pay him his
price and he did not think such man
had any claims on the Republicans of his
county.
The full Democratic ticket Is as fol.
lows; For the Senate, John II. McKinne f;
for Assemblymen, A. F. McCrary, H. J.
Watson and J. A. Robinson. Their cleo
ton is confidently assured.

" Y. Tribune of the goth inst. con-
tains a letter from an occasional CORE
spondent at Tallahassee who says:
The Republicans of Florida are thoroughly
united and well organized, and are making a
vigorous and thorough canvass. They have the
necessary votes 10 carry the State, and will do so
unless they are counted out, which this year APP
pears to be the approved Democratic method OF
disposing OF i1convenient majorties.
The Republicans of Florida were never
SO badly demoralized and divided as they
are to-day on every question except that
of the national ticket. If the Republicans
were, as the correspondent says, "thor-
oughly united and well organised " there
would be very little to fear for the success
of the Republican national ticket in the
State, but handicapped as that ticket is
by the State ticket the chances in the race
are against it.
The entire Republican canvass, accord
ing to the statements of the candidates
themselves, is a miserable, spiritless, dis
hearteniDg and unsatisfactory affair, and
the feelings of mutual respect and good
will which the leading candidates enter
tain towards each-and which crops out
in hundred different ways as they travel
together-is so much the reverse of what
it should be as to excite general COM
ment.
The organization of the party now in
cludes very little beyond the colored peo-
pie, very many Of the white Republicans
having long since declared their determi-
nation not to vote for Conover and Led
with and still adhering to that declara-
ton, while most of the balance are ex-
cessively shy in their party affiliations.
1t is true that the colored voters are solid
or 80 near it as to make any exceptions
hardly worth counting--but as the color
ed voters are over three thousand in the
minority their solidity will hardly avail
to carry the election.
The color line has been drawn not only
as between the two parties but inside of
the Republican party, and to-day the po-
litical divisions of the voters of the State
are very much as follows: the Democratic
party solid white, the Republican party
solid colored, with the exception of few
white candidates and managers with their
camp followers,) and nondescript party
composed of intelligent white men who
have no party name and no party organ
ization, who have been turned out of the
Republican party because of their color
and their intelligence, and who cannot
enter the Democratic party because they
cannot accept its political faith or endorse
its political practices.

Jacksonville Union, October ILL.,
The Fraud Cry.

Every Republican paper In the State 10
beginning to cry out that the Democrats
intend to carry the State by fraud some
of them are frantic overit. If the Demo
cratic party were bent on fraud they could
not by any possibility eqnal. either in ex-
tent or infamy, the fraud perpetrated by
the Republicans in 1875 in this State. But
the Democrats do not intend to commit
any fraud themselves, neither do they in
tend that the Republicans shall do so.
1t is we'll known that the Republicans
rely mainly on the enormous colored vote
in the black belt Counties. One of their
favorite frauds IS registering and voting
imported colored people and minors, an.
other is to multiply repeaters. The Demo
cre:s will see that all this is stopped, or
stopped as near as it is possible to be. In
Orange county we learn that the hands
on the railroads, who have not been there
above three months, are registering; this
ought not TO be permitted, these men
have no right to vote. We learn, further
more, that Democrats in Orange and 9TH
er counties are to be arrested on or just
before the day Of election on trumped up
charges that they have in some way vio-
lated the United States laws relating to
homesteads. 1t is too late In the day to
play this game. There was time in
Florida when members of the Legislature
could be arrested on trumped up charges
and brought from Tallahassee to Jackson
Vile to answer before United States
Court in order that the Republicans might
organize the Legislature in their interests,
but that day has passed and the people
will no longer tolerate such arbitrary in
reference with their rights.
As to a fair count, the linton has be-
fore called the attention of the Republi-
can leaders and the public to the high
character Of the gentlemen who will make
the final connt in Tallahassee. The very
names of these men is . guarantee that the
infamy of 1875, by which the popular will
was reversed, will not be repeated. The
Democrats of the State know that if they
carry this election at ell it must be by
honest votes. And this fact ought to be
as plain to the Republicans as it is to them.
And it doubtless is so, but, believing that
defeat awaits them, they are raising the
fraud cry now that they may shout it more
vociferously after the election. Cry on,
gentlemen, it will hurt nobody and put
you in better case to stand the defeat
that awaits you.

"A dispatch from Ohio says Sena-
tors Thurman and Pendleton, and all the
leading Democrats In the State, have the
fullest confidence in the election of Hap-
cock, and are fully impressed with the
belief that Hancock will carry Indiana

winning contest in Ohio, carry New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Maine,
and two->if not three - of the Pacific
States, with equal chance in Wiscon-
sin, Illinois, Ennsylvania and New Hamp-
shire"
The Democrats elected their eandi-
date for Governor at the October cleo
ton in 1872 by majority of l,l4s, but
in November succeeding the Republicans
carried the State for Grant by majority
of 22,5l5. 1t is universally conceded that
Hancock is stronger by many thousands
of votes than Landers, the Democratic
candidate for Governor just defeated by
Porter by 5000, and great confidence is
felt that he will carry the State next
month. The Democratic nominee for
ce-President, Hon. w. H. English,
says: SIN this contest we have encoun-
tered the resources of the whole Republi.
can party of the United States and have
suffered . temporary defeat. In Novem-
Der we shall encounter only the Republic
