fthe Mississippi BourLons shoot all the members
Of the opposition ticket they will then have no
trouble IN electng their own. The Northern Dem
ocrat can be depended on to rejoice over a victory
of that kind.
Both sides are guessing in Pennsylvania concern
ing the result of the election there on Tuesday
Nothing Ike thorough canvass has been made by
either paryy and the figure, given are anything but
definite. A prominent Republican leader, who
has the best facilities for receiving accurate lnfOr-
nation" gives The Philadelphia Press an estimate of
probable maoriiies by counties, which shows a
Democratic majority outside the City of Philade-
pha of 1850. As the Republican majority
in Philadelphia ranges from 10000 to
~ w the w" Whole state of ut least 10000. The
Democrats make no detailed estimate, but claim a
clear majority of 5000. which is grotesquely alb
Surd. Mr.. Wolfcs managers make no estimate of
his vote and nobody else attempts to.
There il this to be said of the Virginia duel as
means Of remoyinga dangerous political opponent,
il is less cowardly than shooting him in the back
from an ambuscade as the Mississippi Bourbons do.
Will Won vote for a rebel sympathizcr, or a Union
soldier Wi You vote for defamer and libeller
of Abraham Lincoln, or for who fought TO
carry cut Abraham LincOlns policy VIII you
vote for man who said the ought to be
aycred by granting the South all it asked or for a
man who fought to save the Union from the clutches
of the South Those arc the issues which the two
tickets in this State present The head of the Dem

was right, everlastingy right the against the
Union was wrong, forever wrong"
II is not surprising that it is considered ustable
and polite to sustain Democratic campaign in
Mississippi with murder Ono of tho infamous
Gully boys who was Chisolm murderer, is a can
didate on the Bourbon ticket. His course in the
past has been approved and he is held in honor for
IT, Why should not other ambitious BourbOns
emulate him
MrFlower at one time thought Of running for Con
gress in the Watertown District, but gave IL up,
possibly because of the Republican candidates
popularity, possibly because he it would be ex.
pensiye business He must wish now, when he pays
the various Democratic Assessments which scared
Mr. Potter off that he had chosen Watertown after
all. 1t would not have cost him so much to be de-
fcated there it will here.
The new Mississippi plan: kill of the opposition by
shooting its candidates from behind hedge.

lost heavily by such compromises.
The prosecution of the Star Route cases
fairly opened yesterday, with the beginning oil
arguments by counsel upon the motion 10 set
aside the information as an unconstltu'ioi'''
proceedinc. The Star Route consplrators were
represented by band of six lawyers, oil whom
Messrs jeremiah NJ. Wilson and KoDerC W.
IngersoD addressed the Court. Mr.. Wilson'S
arc1lment was to the effect that there was no
authority in any statute for proceeding by III
formation instead of by Indictment ex-
cent i'm cases of minor offences, sucn
IA violations of the revenue laws; ana
that there had not been in eighty years an
attempt TO do so under the common law III
the prosecution of great crime. III deciareu
that the trial presented grave issue OF per-
sOnal rights, inasmuch rs 1t was proposed 10
trv citizen by an untenable procedure for
crime not defined by any statute. The decision
of General Brady was made under the law,
and could only be reached through trial OF
impeachment. The Government counsel are
vet TO be heard. A decision adverse to the
Government on this question would apparently
he fatal TO the prosecution, inasmuch as the
statute of limitations has now run against these
cases.
The municipal canvass in Brooklyn steadily
GROWS in interest and Importance The cleo
tion of Mr.. Low. which seems highly probable
will be such a hard blow to the Klng Deihoc-
racv, and will mean so much to citizens ana
taxpayers in the liberation oil the city from
Ring control, that it is worth making long
mil. and strong pull, and pull all together
70 carry him through. That effort is making,
and the canvass has become busy one. NO
better work is put forth than that of Mr. Low
himself in his speeches. He was announced to
sneak at seven meetings last night, and Is
hooked for five meetings tonight. Many
Democrats of independent character refuse to
be sold out by General Slocum to the Boss,
and will not only vote against the Ring candl-
date but will make speeches and work
against him. Democratic clubs, here ana
there, are openly voting to support MI Low
Whatever the result Of the contest may De-
General Slocum will emerge from 1T without
reputation or respect. After pledging NM
self over and over again to ana III
the destruction of Boss rule he has sold
himself, rumor saying that the consldera-
ton is the support of the KinIs County dele
CATION for Governor next year. If, which Is
likely, he sees Mr.. Low elected III spite OF
him. and if, which is also highly probable, he
does not succeed in getting the nomination ne
seeks, his cup of humiliation will be full.
Sorry the lot of the man who sells himself and
fails TO get the money. And this is the pre-
dicameut that threatens General Slocum.

the discharge of his duties
The Republicans of the Xth Senate District
made a good choice when they nominated
James Talcott His high character and fitness
for the office are so well known as to stand in
no need of any stamp of approval from his
fellow merchants. And yet the memorial
printed elsewhere, which is signed by some of
The best names in the mercantile community,
and which expresses the earnest desire that
Mr.. Talcott may he elected. is a paper for
any man to be proud of.
The attempt to create new State out of
fhe whole or q part of the Territory OF
Dakota is to be renewed at the approaching
session of Congress, with greater vig0r than
ever before. The proposed State can show
considerably larger population than several OF
the newer States had at the time of their adj
mission and has other strong claims to place
In the great family of the Union. Wash
ington dispatch gives an interesting resume OF
the facts upon which the claim will be pushed.
The scandal which was brought upon the
representatives of Massachusetts, at Yorktown
by the misconduct of some members of the
9th Regiment from that State does not
diminish under investigation. The military
commission which has been sent to inquire
into the charges heard number of witnesses
yesterday in Richmond under oath, and the
Testimony is said to have been damaging. The
business of insulting women and school chill
hren is a contemplate one at the best and it
is pity that it should have been in the
power of few blackguards to discredit the
good name of their State, and mar the har-
mony of the centennial celebration.
The conclusion Of the Franco-Italian COM
6nercial treaty may hasten an agreement be-
tween France and England, although their
Negotiations are temporarily suspended. France

she is not over-exacting. England, how
ever. places her main reliance on

Things to be Remembered.

That parsely eaten with vinegar will
remove the unpleasant effects of eating
onions.
That cakes, puddings, ETC., are improv-
ed by making the currants, sugar and
flour hot before using them.
That lamp shades of ground glass
should be cleaned with soap OF pearlash !;
these will not injure or discolor them.
That gold lace may be cleaned by rub
bing it with soft brush, dipped in roche
alum, burnt and sifted to fine powder.
That earthly mould should never be
washed from potatoes, carrots, or other
roots, until Immediately before they are
to be cooked.
That cold boiled potatoes used as soap
will clean the hands and keep the skin
soft and healthy. These not over-boiled
are the best.
That charcoal powder is good for pol
ishing knives without destroying the
blades. 1t is also good tooth powder
when finely pulverized.
That potato wateEin which potataes
have been boiled, the water being allow
ed to settle and afterwards strained, is
good for sponging dirt out-of silk.
That straw mating may be cleaned
with a large coarse cloth, dipped in salt
and water, and then wiped dry. The
salt prevents the straw from turning
yellow.
That buttermilk is excellent for clean
ing sponges. Steep the sponge in the
milk for some hours, then squeeze it out,
and wash it in cold water. Lemon juice
is also good.
That tea leaves, used for keeping down
the dust when sweeping carpets, are apt
to stain light colors; salt is the best in
the winter and new mown hay in the
summer.
A piece of linen cloth dipped in. tur-
petine and wrapped aroHnd the toe on
which corn is situated, will give relief,
and after few days the corn will dis
appear.
That rusty black Italian Grape may he
restored by dipping in skinned milk
and water, with Il bit of fine glue dissolv-
ed in it. and made scalding hot. It
should be clapped and pulled dry, like
muslin.

A CELEBRATED and somewhat eccen-
trio preacher IN London played a little
trick on his people in order to get them
to church early. They had been in the
habit of coming whenever itsuited them,
thereby causing him much annoyance.
This minister one Sunday told the peo-
pie that he would on the next Sunday
have something of unusual importance
to communicate to them, but in order to
avail themselves of the benefits of it
they must all be in their seats at the
very moment appointed for the begin
ming of service. 1t turned out that all
he had to communicate was the express
sion of bis pleasure at finding them all
in their seats in season. Onlystwo per-
sons were late, and the others grinned
anthem as they came in Son tiptoe and
took ther seats. It-was the impression
of most of those who were thus lured
into spasmodic punctuality that the
minister had sold them very cheap. !

A NEW YORK special to the Cincin-
natl Gazette of Friday says that mem.
be of the Republican State Committee,
who was in consultation with Mr.. Platt
tonight, said to Tribune reporter that
the minor Senator resigned because he
thought it would be uncomfortable for
him to continue in opposition to the
President. He did not resign before
Conkling and then withhold his resigna-
tion at the latter's request, but they act
ed in concert throughout.
"Platt," he continued, "did not intend
to be candidate for reelection, but the
shape matters are taking now at Alba
ny has about forced him to the conclu-
sion that in self-defense it will be neces-
sary for him to become a candidate. He
thought the same was true of .Conkling,
but they could not enter into the canvass
until after consultation, which would be
held on the Senator's arrival from Wash
ington. The tide is now against the
Senators, but next week, when their
canvass is opened, there will be reac-
tion"
"Conkling," he added, "has. a letter
from President Garfield, in which the
latter promised not to make nomina-
tions without consulting him, and shis
letter was written the day before the
nomination of Judge Robertson" Next
week, he said, this letter would be fur
nished for publication.
