From the N. Y. Herald dnd.)

FROM lhe N. . Herald (lha,)
There will be time enough hereafter
TO discuss the causes of the overgh9lm.
ing victory Of the Republicans. 1t ia
plain, however, that the country does
not fancy the "solid South" and that
Il does not admire the lack Of brains
and of principles for which the Demo
cratic canvass was chiefly conspicuous
To these general reasons mus. be add
ed this, that the American people, who
are like all free people, conservative,
ana properly so, were inclined to let
we'll enough alone. They cav 10 suf-
ficisnt reasons for a change in admins.
tratiop. The Democrats asserted taat
there were such reasons; but the vote
shows that they were not able to Goa.
vince the people. 1t would not, per-
haps, be incorrect TO say that they
might have convinced the voters had
they taken the right way. They had
o popular platform, but they forgot all
about it until in the last weeks Of the
canvass and then they split it up for
ktndlirg wood.
Whenever the Democrats can agree
upen policy and muster up courage
enough to assert and explain it before
the people, if at the same time they can
shake off the load Of the Solid South,
they may have some hope OF success.
The Repu blicaus have the Prssiden.
cy and a working majority in botl
Houses of Congress. For 4 years from
the 4th ofMsroh next they have the
destiny of the country in their hands.
What will they do with it?

Tho Ggzette and AccEracy.

Remarks the Gazette in its local COL
umns yesterday, after saying that the
extra Issued by the REPUBLICAN in the
morning was inaccurate: "Among other
things it stated that tho county had
been carried by the Republicans by
nlajOrities ranging from $50 to l, ,100,"
and yet the Gazette in its extra and in
its regular edition as we'll, states that
sin this county the majority for Han
cock will be about one hundred though
the official figures may slightly vary
this estimate" In the same column
containing this lying announcement are
figures showing that the county has
gone Republican on the whole ticket by
fair majorities. Here is great con.
trSdiction, which clearly shows that
the Gazette looked elsewhere than to
its own columns for miStskes, and that
it, fling at this paper was prompted by
malice at being badly beaten in getting
the extra on the street. The REPUBLE-
CAN was on hour ahead and the figures
were much more reliable than those in
the Gazette. When the REPUBLICAN
extra was issued it appeared that the
msjorities would range from $50 to l..
100, instead Of from l29 to $50, and the
error was corrected in the afternoon.
The Gazstt on the other hand, lied
knowingly in its extra and allowed the
lie to appear in it's afternoon edition.

FeOI Hardness.

PARs, November IA frlghtfg
and probably unprecedented balloon
accident occurred last evening at Cour
bevoie, near Paris. A large crowd had
assembled to witness the novel and
parilous ascent Off gymnast, called
August Navarro who, with inexplicAblt
foolhsrdiness, had volunteered to per.
form number of athletic feats on a
trspezs suspended from Mongoliere
balloon named the Vldouvillaise. Re.
iecting the advice of bystardsr5. Ma.
varre refused to allow himself to ba
tied to the trapeze. There was no car
attached to the balloon. At about Eve
o'clock the Vidouvillaise was let loose
from Its moorings and rose msjesticslly
in the air. Navarro, hanging on to
the trapGz, appeared quiet oonfden,
and repeatedly ssluted the spectators
When however, the balloon had reach
ed height Of nearly 1000 yards the
crowd was Mortified to see him sud
denly let 20 the bar and fall. The
tragic descent was watched in breath
less excitement. At last the body
reached the ground striking with such
force that II made hole In the earth
two feet deep, and rebcuaded fou'
yards. II was crushed and mapglsd
almost beyond recognition. Meanwhile,
the balloon, freed from its human bal
last, shot up with lightning speed and
soon disappeared from sight. Late in
the evening it burst and fell at Meml.

The e,hrfstIsu Union.

The Young Mems Christian Union Of
the First Presbyterian Church were
pleased TO see 50 many young men at
their meeting on Sunday night to hear
Q special sermon onI"The Social Life Of
Young Men," by Rev. F. B. DuVal.
Basins his address upon the text,
''Rejoie9, 0 young an, in thy youth,
and let thy heart cheer thee in the days
OF thy youth, and walk in the ways Of
tLins heart, and in the light of thine
eyes; but know thou, that for all these
things God will bring thea into judg.
meut." E,olss. XII Q. The preacher re.
marked that youth was the time for en-
ioyment. Man was net meant to be
alone, it being both natural and neces'
sary for him to oOugregate. The social
power was great for good Or evil, &C.
oOraing to the motives which brought
men together. He told With great pa
thos the story of young man in Balti-
more, whose closing hours he WAS called
to witness. Handsome, polished, tai.
entea and graceful in every way, he
was the hero OF the club to which he
belonged, and its ringleader in every
thing connected with it. Aspiring TO
larger spheres Of cldb life than his ma
tive city afforded; he removed to New
York, and there shown brilliantly. He
also formed connections wtta clubs in
81. Louis and Chicago. In this latter
city he was taken sick like the poor
prodigal, no man gsVeuntO him. The
keeper Of the hotel asked where he
wished TO 60. He replied, "tske me
home to Baltimore to nay mother"
There the silver. hairod mother weeping
at the bed side, the pastor, the dying
son, present a picture which will not
be forgotten by his hearers.
Social corruption was shown to have
been the downfall Of great nations in
the past, and it was to be feared that
unless checked it would be the ruin Of
this. he wished them to glory in their
country and prepare themselves for o
yiftuous home life.
The Christian Union were encour
aged by the respOnBe to their invitation
and hope to see the young men again
on some future occasion of like Charac-
ter.
