Bristol Border Fair.

A correspondent at Bristol, under date of
September %, writes us as follows:
II The Border Fair opened yesterday under
very favorable auspices, with grand street
parade, headed by Richmond & McElreth's
Cornet Band, and consisting of about twenty
elegantly decorated cars, representing the
different trades.
The leading feature was superb tab
leaux car elegantly trimmed seating sew
enty -four little girls dressed in white and
flags at half-mast draped in mourning, for
the decersed President. The car was
drawn by fne mules. This parvade was
the grandest ever seen here.
To-day the gates were opened early, and
the grounds were soon filed. All the de-
partments are very full, and everybody
seems entirely pleased with the way things
are going off.
/ THE RACES. s.
The running race, in which there were five
entries, was won by General Malone"
owned by Joe Bradshaw, of Lynchburg !;

, dy's 50 Belle Massengill"
| The double team race was won by S. R.

fine native cattle. Both took premiums.
This exhibition proves the Border Fair
to be an eminent success. The weather is
very fine.

The deadlock In the U. S. Senate is
the work of Copkling, VINO thus pre-
vents the confirmation of Garfeld's APP
pointmeuts. i large majority of the
Republican Senators begin to admit they
made bad bargain with Malone. They
thus delay urgent business for which the
President called them to Washington, in
order that they may carry out this bar
gain and pay over to Malone his price.
They are striking the Administration
with paralysis, and bringing into con-
tempt the Executive whom their own
party, with such tremendous effort,
barely elected. Their excuse for not
breaking loose from their false position
is even more unworthy than the thral.
dom which they would excuse. 1t was
Mr.. Conkling's determined will in the
caucus that drove them into the bog
where they are now Aoundering; and
they are afraid to crawl out, lest the
Boss should lay ths whip across their
backs again. Thus says Frye, who takes
Blaine's seat; 80 says Eugene Hale, and
the ostentatious Hoar; the virtuous Joe
Hawley, and Gen. sewell, who throttled

vice reformer, and Ben Harrison, and
other Senators who stood erect, and de.
feated Conkling's unyielding 3O6 at

The Mansfield Herald is disposed to
hew out rational conclusions from an as

can enough for the Republican stomach
at the home of John Sherman, opens an
editorial with this observation: I'VE

"lican victory in Ohio this fall are as

on to draw the line between the situation
two years ago and the condition of par

torial and Presidential questions were
pending; how Foster was flushed with
Congressional victories; how he was
new man in state politics, without ene-
mics; and how "he travelled with the dill
igenCe OF Sarah Bernbardt." In the lu.
cid language of the Herald, "the genial
Gubernatorial candidate and the like
wise genial state ticket swept across the
political armament and into the state
capitol as gracefully as meteor sweeps
the heavens" Prestol Observe how
the Herald depicts the situation now:
"Unfortunately the brilliant success of
the genial Governor was contagious, and

BILE. Great things were promised, but
they were not realized, neither last wins

will be chosen next fall, when it is to be

The Republican majority in the late
Legislature were lavish in their promises
to the temperance organizations, but
have done nothing in that direction. Of
course the leaders never intended any
thing should be done; and the promises
were merely made to secure votes.
In the cities Of Cleveland, Cincinnati

them too. The result Of the two sessions

EQUAL rights to all men before the
law. is the corner stone Of the Republl'
can party.-RepositOry.
This is the same party that has estab'
lished over 1000 National Banks with
special privileges; the same parry that
has built up Union Pacific and other
railway monopolies; the party OF Credit
Mobilier and other log rolling plunder
schemes; the party of plunder and every
thing that ia unfair, iniquitous and un-
Just in legislation. In fact, it is the old,
Alexander Hamilton, Federal party in
worse shape, tainted with fraud and cor
ruption. We need only name fraudulent
Hayes and Malone.
Where the Republican party have the
most complete asCendancy, is where Tneir
doctrines and ideas of government are
most completely developed and prevail
We point to New England in this con-
nection. and show in Rhode Island a
model old Federal Republican state,
where foreign born citizens, when poor
are not allowed to vote at all. No such
distinction is applied to negroes The
XVIII Amendment to the Constitution,
Il should be remembered too, was so
worded as to accommodate this feature
of old Alexander Hamilton Federalism
in Rhode Island.
The foregoing is the equality OF rights
the Rep. favors and refers to we pre-
supe. The old Know Nothing organ
has never said aught against this Rhode
Island arrangement, nor yet the arrange
ment in Massachusetts that disfranchl-
ses over hundred thousand adult Citi-
zens there. In fact, the Republican
party was the immediate offspring OF the
Know Nothing party Of 1854. The old
leaders Of the Republican party now in
Stark county were the midnight oath
bound leaders Of the Know Nothing or
Ranization, q living specimen OF whom
can be found in the Repository Office.
These men changed their political
name without changing their narrow
political principles. Their midnight
oath, it will be remembered, was to cur
tail religious liberty, and to prescribe all
foreign born citizens. For the truth Of
this we refer to Mr.. Saxton Of the Re
pOsitOry and to others we might name
In fact, ifthese Republican leaders dared
now, they would make Ohio a Rhode
Island.
From all these it will be seen the
young Mckinley editor Of the Rep. is moi
posted on the history nor the principles
Of the Republican party, or else is moi
honest in his claim. 1t is not the party

The Alliance Review maintains that
it was the good, temperance ladies who
defeated Cassidy for Mayor. Mr.. Cas-
sidy thought the ladies were just going
to make him the mayor of our city by a
rousing majority; and that was the rea
son he drafted the address, and got
them to sign it and publish it in the pa
pers and scatter it over town in slips.
The thing didn't work as Mr.. Cassidy
expected; but it tickles the Rep. folks,

editor and publisher of the Canton Re-

The Springfield Republican says that
Secretary Dorsey, of the National Re-

famous dinner given him in New York,
and admits it has ruined him politically.
BY the way, the bills for the dinner,

unpaid, though the committee Of distin-
guished citizens-Pierrepont, Morgan,
John Jacob Astor, John s. Stewart and
others, under whose patronage the af~
fair was gotten up -expect to foot them
finally. Some Of these men did not
know who Dorsey was when they gave
their names to the invitation, and two Of
them thought he was a Senator from

smole grim smile of satisfaction at this
palpable hit of the Kentuckian, "and

Chartism has been revived in England
by the organization of the Democratic
Confederation, to which English Radio
ais like Mr.. Hyndman, Mr.. Joseph
Cowen and Prof. Beesly belong. The
six points of the Chartists were annual
Parliaments, abolition of the property
qualification, universal suffrage, vote by
ballot, payment Of members, and equal
electoral districts. The Confederation
demands adult suffrage, biennial Parlia-
ments, payment of members, equal
electoral districts, the naturalization OF
the land, the abolition of the House Of
Lords and bribery at elections to be
made felony. When Hume brought
forward the six points in the Commons
he was almost hooted down, and Mr..
Disraeli told him the gentry we're the
leaders of English public opinion; while
Frost and Feargus O'Connor we're put
down by the military and civil powers.
But Radicalism, then only as grain Of
mustard seed, has become so vast a
force in the tody polite, that the mems
bers Of the Confederation will be heard
with attention, and some Of them may
live to see their programme become law.

"THE BEST GOVERN -ENTs THE

chargeable directly and exclusively, to
Republican rule and policy. The spoil

will be seen from the following figures
