In FoREcAsTINe the complexion oi
tho next House of Representatives the
other day we pointed out that Demo
cratic gains appear to be fo:egone con-
clusion In New York. In 1875 the Re-
publicans had but seventeen out of the
thirty-three districts, but In 1878, owing
to various local causes, chief among
which was the fact that no less than
twenty GreeDbackers were running, they
added eight districts to their list. Now
there are only eight Greenback can1i-
dates in the field and the Democracy
throughout the State appears to be
united and harmonious. In the Third,
Seventh, Eighth and Sixteenth districts
the Democrats have clear majolities
under ordinary conditions, and there ia
every reason to expect that Democratic
representatives will be returned from
these districts in place Of the Republican
lncumbents. In addition TO these it is
not only possible, but highly probable,
that important gains will be reported
from other localities.

NO TIpINas YET.

"a 1t was thought yesterday that the
mysterious disappearance of Henry
Bleyer was about to be cleared up. but
this morning the affair still remains as
mysterious as ever. Yesterday after
noon boy named Baker while out
near Newport found hat floating in
the Christiana, and thinking it might
belong to some one he brought IL to
this CITY, and placed it in the hands of
Geo. Finck.
Mr.. ,Finck took The hat to Mrs.
Bleyer, who upon examining it, pro-
nounced it::to be the hat worn by her
husband on the night of his disappear
ance.
Acting upon this clue. Coroner Bu'z
and others drove out to Newport late
in the afternoon in the hopes of find
ing the body, but their search was
frnitless. .f
This morning Mrs. Bleyer, again
carefully examined the hat, and deci J.
ed that it was not her husbands
Nothing further has been heard of the
missing man, than what was publish, d

TO THE DEMOCRATIC CLUBS.

It would be well for the Democratic
campaign clubs, during the Republi-
can parade, this evening, to remain
away from their headquarters, 80 as
TO give the Radicals not the slightest
presumptive reason for creating dis
turbance. The Democrats have every
thing to gain and nothing to lose by
f0rbearance. Already the negro Re-
publicans have displayed their savage,
lawless aggressiveness. On Saturday
night two weeks, while parading, they
wantonly attacked and beat white
Republican, and tore out the house OF
another. The next Saturday night
they outrageously, and without provo
cation, attacked Democratic process
sion, wounding twenty white men,
Two nights later they assaulted sever
al white girls with stones and bricks,
and on last Saturday night a burly ne.
gro assaulted a store clerk in st.
Georges, and wounded him seriously.
Thus far the negroes have been the
aggressors, and the public sentiment
awakened in favor of the Democracy
would be reacted by retaliatory meas
urss now. Let insult and outrage be
endured a few days more, when, on the
day of election The Democrats will
come forth as free men, "who know
their rights, and knowing dare main
tain them, through the medium of q
legal and constitutional ballot.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.
TWO NEGROES ATTEMPT TO SHOOT THE
DEMOCRATIC INSPECTOR OF THE
NINTH WARn


TWO NEGROES ATTEMPT TO SHOOT THB
DEMOCRATIC INSPECTOR OF THE
NINTH WARD. ,a..
Failing in their frantic legal efforts
to GUST the legally elected Democratic
Inspector of the Ninth ward, Mr.. Jesse
U. johnson, the Republicans have now
changed their tactics to an attempt to
remove him by the horrible plan OF as
sassination.
Mr.. johnson says he was going out
Market street ON his way home, about
eleven O'Clock last night, and when at
Fourteenth street two negro men ap-
preached him from the corner. One
OF them at once savagely said, "John.
son, you 81 Of b--h, / know you,"
and both drew revolvers and fred sew
eral shots at him. Fortunately none
took effect, though one shot just grazed
his stomach. Having his revolver
with him, Mr.. johnson returned the
murderous assault with interest, and,
It is presumed, with good effect, as the
negroes ceased firing and ran along
Fourteenth street.
From certain remarks made BY cer-
tain Republicans, Mr.. johnson feels
assured this dastardly attempt at mur-
der was carefully prepared and the
execution entrusted TO the black as
sassins, hired for the purpose. These
same remarks also lead him to believe
his shots took effect upon one Of his
rascally assailants.
Inview of the desperation thus evinc-
ed by Republicans it would be well for
the Ninth ward Democrats to come to
the polls early ON election day, and pro-
tect their Inspector in his legal rights.

An Interesting Collection.

On Monday next, the Bohemian
Glass Blowers, with their $4,000
collection of wonders in glass, will
open their display at the building
No. SOC Market street. The opera
ton of glass working is performed
every afternoon and evening, and in
full view of the audience, every fa-
cllity being given to witness their
wonderful performances. In addi-
tion to other wonders, a magnificent
model of the Centennial Corliss
steam engine, built of nearly five
thousand pieces of glass, is shown in
operation, and is triumph of me-
chanical genius which is alone worth
more than the price of admission to
see. A prominent place is also Civ
en- to collection of spun glass work,
embracing bonnets, hats, slippers,
collars, neckties, &C., all made for
actual wear, while the Crystal
Queen, in bridal robes manufactured
from 100000 miles of glass thread,
gives levees at each entertainment.
A model of the Old South Church in
glass, besides other attractions
which we have not space to mention,
should not be forgotten. Each visi-
tor to the exhibition has the privi-
lege of casting vote for the hand
soonest baby in the city, the voting
to continue till four O'Clock, Satur-
day afternoon, when they will be
counted, and the baby receiving
the highest number Of votes will be
presented with magnificent case
of glass work valued at fifty dollars.

Mr.. John Kilkenny, of Louisville,
general travelling passenger agent of
the Louisville and Nashville railroad,
is in the city looking after the inter
ests of that great line. He formerly
held the same position on the Cincin-
natl Short line for a number of years
and proved himself to be an efficient,
valuable and popular railroad man.
He has travelled through the
south often before, and his
many friends are gratifed to
know that his valuable services and
usefulness have received recognition
and promotion at the hands of the
great corporation he now represents.
In his enlarged field and increased
responsibilities he will find ample
scope for all his energies and fine
training. We congratulate him upon
his good fortune and the company in
securing a faithful and popular repre-
sentative.

cd with the sun at &c this morn
ing, aud the breeze being light, the
indications point to a considerable
quantity of sultriness before night,

by the signal service bull
letins in the Lower Missouri and
upper Mississippi valleys, west and
east gulf and the south Atlantic
states. NAlso in the upper and lower
lake regions, and perhaps on the
north Pacific coast. South, shifting
to westerly winds and a little change
of temperature, is the prediction for
the lower Missouri region, and south
coast winds with no change of temper
ature, for the Tennessee and Ohio
valleys.
