Address by the Republican National
Committee.

The Republican National Committee
issued the following address to the Re-
publican voters of the United States on
the 15thi
To the Republican Voters Of the Union:
Tho elections of Tuesday last clearly show
that with continued zeal and systematic effort
the Republican triumph i'm November will be
complete and overwhelming.
Our plurality In Ohio is about q, 600, being a
gain OF 5000 over the exceptionally large
plurality of 1879, while the election OF fifteen
of twenty Congressman gives us gain of six
members.
our plurality in Indiana reaches about 7,OOO
being n gain of 2l,O00 on the Democratic plu-
rallty In 1873. In the Legislature we have
majority of L., in contrast with a Democratic
majority of 20 in the last Legislature, thus
gaining the United States Senator. OF thir-
teen Congressional Districts nine have been
carried, making a gain of three members
The result In each State, and especially In
Ohio IS Il conclusive answer of the people to
the false and malignant assaults upon the per-
sonal character of our candidate for Presi-
dent, which have thus far been the principal
weapon of our opponents, and have been in
decently and shameessly repeated in the ad-
dress this day published by their stunned and
demoralized National Committee. Both these
victories are the result of n spontaneous and
enthusiastic uprising OF the people IN tavor Oh
patriotic principles, enlightened legislation
ana good government. Ihat III INDIANA mas

Ronnefort and It's Cheese.


Fromague de Roquefort had name
in the days of Pliny, and doubtless
formed part of many Roman banquet.
In the Middle Ages Roquefort was in
vested by the Parliament of Toulouse
with the monopoly of making it, and
although the industry is spread over an
area of twenty miles round, Roquefort
still maintains its ancient position,
making to-day quantity Of cheese
nearly twenty times as great as 1t did at
the beginning of the century. This long
continued prosperity is said to be due
to the extraordinary character of the
place. The village stands on the sum-
NIT of steep hill, whose sides are hon
ey-combed with caverns which the
course of nature has made in the calca-
reous limestone. These caverns, which
in prehistoric times are believed to
have been inhabited by men of the pol
ished-stone period, have for many cen
turies been used as storehOuses, wherein
the cheeses are kept cool during the
summer heat. Attempts to make arti-
fetal caverns elsewhere have not sue
ceeded, some mysterious zephyrs OF
most refreshing breath appearing to
play about those of Roquefort; at any
rate, the belief that they do is pcren-
nial source of wealth to its inhabitants.

Marshall Jewell to John c. New.


Mr.. Jewell, Chairman of the National
Republican Committee, has written the
following open letter to John Q. New,
Chairman of the Indiana Republican
State Central Committees:
NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 1880.
DEAR SIR-The result of the Ohio and In
diana elections is most gratifying, not only TO
the loyal North, but the business interests,
which were largely involved In the results Of
this campaign. 1t must eventuate not only In
the election of Garfield and Arthur, but in Civ
ing us control of both houses of Congress for
the next four years. 1t will give us every
Northern State, and probably two or three
Southern States. have been thoroughly in
dgnant all through the campaign of slander
and vituperation and mud-slinging. The re-
suits of yesterdays election indicate that
honorable men of all parties and lovers of
fair play will not quietly see an eminent
citizen villiied and traduced as our
candidate has been all through this
campaign. am greatly delighted to see the
ISLANDERS have recoiled upon the heads of their
malicious inventors party, composed as it
is so largely of the best men of the Nation, is
to great extent responsible for the manners
as well as the morals of politics. This COM
mittee has issued millions of pamphlets. 1t
has not printed one word during the campaign
inrcgard to the Democratic candidate which
one gentleman might not properly say of an
other. The case went to the Western Jury
yesterday. They find the verdict the Nation
will render in November. 1 am quite content
to rely upon the intelligence and justice of the
republican people. MARSHALL JEWELL.

A JnbIIant Address.

Chairman j. A. Hubbell, Of the Re-
publican Congressional National Com
mttee, has issued the following address
TO the Republicans of the country:
To tho Republican Voters of tho United
States.
We have met the enemy and they are ours.
From Oregon, from Rhode Island, from Yer
mont, from Connecticut, have come recent
voices bearing nc. uncertain sound, but boom
ing, ringing with the notes OF Republican vic
tory. And now Ohio, giving us at least $4,000
popular majority and 10 of her 20 Congress-
ionol Districts, and Indiana, giving us from
5,000 to 10,00O majority, probably nine of her
10 Congressman, and her Legislature, with it's
certain promise of Republican United
states Senator, join their swelling voices with
these shouts of triumph and seem TO make our
coming victory sure. The vote of yesterday
is due to the fear of Democratic ascendency,
of solid Southern domination, of the ruin to our
industries which would follow Democratic free
trade experiments, of the disasters to business
and laboring and other interests which would
follow n change of Government when all is
prosperous now. II means also united North
against q vindctive solid South. We have
pierced the enemy's center, but we must not
sleep on our arms. We must charge along the
whole line and rout him, horse, foot and
dragon. Republicans, remember that this is
tho last ditch of the Solid South, and that the
desperation OF despair is not to be despised.
Stand by your colors. Rest not for an instant.
Sustain your Committees in the fight for doubt
ful districts. BE vigilant, aggressive, press
ing. The enemy is in the front, in the rear,
and in the flank, and do not cease your
efforts until a complete overwhelming victory
in November shall crown them with assurance
OF Republican ascendency and that freedom,
peace and prosperity which will surely accom-
pany it. J. A, HUBBELL,
Chairman Republican Committee.

A Difficult Engineering Feat.

Italian engineers are planning a task
demanding skill and care. The cele-
brated Baptistery of Ravenna is now in
imminent danger of falling in conse-
quence of the infiltration of water, it
being three feet below the adjoining
street. 1t is proposed to remove the
whole building to a dry site by digging
around the foundations, and raising it
upon an enormous machine with iron
wheels. The inside of the building will
be carefully protected-the windows
bracketed and the mosaics covered with
wadding-and the walls outside will be
confined by iron bands to keep the ma
sonry from displacement The whole
structure will be sawn across where the
walls join the foundations and the mo-
saics end and the upper portion win be
lifted by gigantic cranes. The Baptis-
terry is in the form of an octagon, with
a dome and arcade, which rest upon
columns of white marble. Its total
weight is calculated to be 1,067 tons.

Many of our readers may be benefited by
the following reliable statement from Messrs.
A. Heilman s. Son, the well-known Druggists
of this city, who write: We have sold thou
sands of bottles of that valued medicine
Hamburg Drops-and every bottle that we
have sold has always cured. 1t never missed.
We recommend it as the best medicine we ever
sold, and could furnish statements of cures
sufficient to fill the largest paper printed.

Comments OF the Press.

We see the divining finger of Provi-
dence in the signs and developments of
the hour, and it inspires us with full
confidence and hope. This Nation is
not to be surrendered into the hands of
its enemies, but is to be preserved for
the welfare of all the people, regardless
of color or previous condition of servi-
tude. and in the hands of it's friends.
This is right, and this is the prospect
which the future now presents. The
future peace, prosperity and happiness
of this Union can be secured in this way,
and in no other. Union men to the
front, and rebels to the rear, is the fu-
ture order for this great country. We
do not say this in spirit of insolence
or of boasting, but because that condi-
tion of affairs is the future reliance of
the Nation and the welfare of its peo-
pie. The late Confederate must learn
to submit to all the laws of the country,
and say, in his invocations:
"That mercy 1 to others show,
That mercy show to me-"

B6rWe have Hancock's word for it
that "one who can not be trusted with
out pledges can not be trusted merely
on account of them" If he says that of
himself he must not blame other people
for saying his pledge against claims is
worthless. As il 10 destroy what little
value that pledge had, the Southern
Democrats are rushing TO the front with
pledges on all sorts of questions, max
ing them so cheap that the market is
already glutted.

Can the evil wrought by gossip be esti-
mated? We think not. 4 wise woman can
scarcely say too little in company if the con-
versation trenches in the least upon scandal
Many a social, noble minded woman has
been obliged to withdraw herself from q
neighborhood intimacy, which would have
been pleasant otherwise, because her re-
marks were returned by some idle tale bearer
50 perverted a. to make her doubt the exist
ence of genuine friendship, and accept lone
liness for the sake of the safety it brought.
You say We must talk ''about something. y
Yes, and through that very fact We see .
remedy for the evil, to 40 thoroughly inter-
est yourselves in other and better things
that you find no time to spare for your neigh
bors' affairs. Talk of your work, your homes,
your house.plants, your books or your ba-
bies. Teach your eyes to find beauty every
where. Never, under any circumstances,
cast the first stone. Then, il an eEring neigh
Dor goes down, you cannot blame yourself
for assisting il the downfall.-( Philadelphia
