The Ninth District.

II is not very profitable TO undertake to
show that, Notwithstanding Brown AL
LENS taX-receipts, the Democrats if they
had acted more wisely during the recent
campaign, would have carried the Ninth
district and with it the state. Yet it may
be some satisfaction to know how ii was
that the result in that district was so diff
ferent from what had been expected. y
letter from one OF the most prominent
Democrats in that section throws much
light upon the subject. lie attributes the
failure TO carry the district to the failure OF
the Wytheyille conference to recommend
any candidate to the voters. lie says:
"By the call on the 18th for II meeting
on the 9th October, work was everywhere
suspended in the mean time; and when the
meeting failed to endorse the stronger man
general Generalization followed in every
part of the district, and the election wa
100 close at hand for us TO rally our demo-
rallied forces. The other side was inspired
by the result. and the Radicals came out il
full force and gave Bowen three fourths o.
the votes east for him, whilst vast mum
Der Of Democrats stayed at home, undel
the impression that the contest was hope
less" &C., &c.
The writer adds:
"But Mahone's victory is barren one
and will serve, | hope, to rouse up the De
mocracy to greater exertions in the flu
ture."
Our correspondent calls for fan imme
date reorganization of the Democratic
party preparatory to the spring and ial
elections OF 1888"

A Long Lease of Power.

SAMUEL I. BARR. Senator CAMERON'S
former private secretary, and now a men,
Der OF Congress from the Harrisburg dis
trict, in which he was reelected on Tues
day by bare majority, in an interview
on Saturday said: 1.-The Republican party
has no future; their place is fixed. The
party has gone TO pieces, and has nailed
the coffin lid down by clecting enough
Democratic Legislatures in Republican
States TO redistrict the country so rs to se-
cure the supremacy of the Democracy"
Or, as Mr.. BARR would have it, "flee-
trade Democracy"
The fact he reminds us Of is worth bear
ing in remembrance. New York, which
will have 80 members, will be redistricted
for the House of Representatives by a
Democratic Legislature. We should gam
several congressman in that State by merely
doing away with the present Republican
gerrymander. All through the northern
States the Democrats will thus indirectly
profit hereafter by the grand victories
which they have gained this year. II now
they can agree to rid the country Of those
intcrnal-rcyenuc officials whom CONKLING,
CAMERON, MALONE, and the other bosses,
find so serviceable in carrying elections,
not by their votes and their electionecring
only but by the liberality with which they
furnish "material aid" as KOssUTH used
TO call it, then the Democracy may con
lidently count upon 4 glorious victory IL
the presidential election OF 1884.

The Rapnblican Party Dead.

Hon. Jons g.. CARLISLE, OF Kentucky,
WAS interviewed last Saturday. lie said a
good many things; but he was particu-
lsrly happy In speaking Of the Republican
marty. lie said:
alt seems from present appearances that
IN, breach is permanent, and that the pro-
cess az disintcgration will go steadily on
fyon this time forth. l have never be-
ueyed that the Republican party could
survive n single defeat in Il national con-
test. and by that mean q contest inyoly-
INC tho possession OF the Executive power
nj tho Government. Ii has always seemed
20 me that when the war closed, and the
questions growing out Of the war had been
settled according to the Republican plan.
the mission OF that party us national
organization was practically ended.
Thereafter ii lived only to hold the Offices,
and its life was sustained solely by
official patronage and the improper use OF
official authority. There has not been
fine, in my opinion, since 1876, when a
full and fair vote Of the people, free from
NH improper influences, would not have
shown n Democratic majority OF at least
half million in this country. The recent
elections indicate that the people are ae-
,ermincd 10 resist these Improper inilu-
erces hereafter, even when attempted TO be
cver,ised by the President himself; ana II
tbis Is really their determination, the ke-
publican party is doomed. 1t VIII be de-
ieated in 1854. and disappear forever rs
national political organization
How true. The Republican party Tor the
last ten years has "lived only to hold the
Offices. and it has been kept alive by
"oficial patronage and the improper use
OF official authority" In word, the
blooGsuckers OF that party organized d
machine which by its "double back-action
operation was so worked Us to make the
offices keep the party in existence and
the party keep the Offices in existence
What possible excuse worthy OF being
called even an apology can the Republicans
give for continuing the intcrnal-reyenut
system, which yields only one hundred and
thirtv-tve millions OF dollars TO Govern
mcnt having 4 surplus Of one hundred ano
fit:y millions? Think OF the people sus
tanning all these long years party which
has kcp, this int0lerable burthen upon
them. At Richmond, Danyille, Lynch
burg, and IIarrisonburg, in Virginia, this
system furnishes Republican headquarters
to the party canyasscrs, speakers, and
strikers, and all are paid by the people
whom the system unnecessarily plumbers.
Down with the cntile system. Let the
Democratic motto be, "All or none"
Don't make two bites OF sour cherry
such as that II you content yourselves
with bite next winter you will never get
chance TO take the second bite. Repeal

The Amendments.

The law required the vote to be taken as
II was taken last week to decide whether
the amendments proposed to the Constitu-
ton should become parts OF that instru-
mcnt or not. A large majority Of the
voters voted for The amendments.
What nexty Will il be necessary for
the Legislature 10 pass law 10 put the
amendments into forccs IL such n proyi-
sion had been added 10 the Constitution
instead Of being stricken out OF II, we take
10 for granted thN the General Assembly
would have been compelled to provide for
putting IL into force; but a different rule
will prevail as to section stricken out OF
the Constitution. The Constitution itself
provides as follows:
Z" II the people shall approve and ratify
such amendment or amendments by ma
jority OF the electors qualified TO vote TOT
members OF the General Assembly voting
thereon. such amendment or amendments
shall become part OF the Constitution"
When Immediately, we suppose, in
the case before us. The law submitting
the amendments to The vote OF the people
provides as follows:
"a. The Governor shall, without delay,
make proclamation OF the result, stating
therein the aggregate vote for and against
the amendments, TO be published in such
newspapers in the State as may be deemed
requisite for general information; and II a
majority Of said votes be cast for the rati-
iication of the said amendments he shall
annex to his proclamation 4 copy thereof,
together with copy Of these resolutions
As soon, therefore, as Governor CAME
RON shall issue his proclamation declaring
the amendments ratified the same will be-
come a part OF the Constitution. SO there
will be no money needed hereafter to pay
capitatiOn-taXeS in Virginia as means o.
increasing the vote of either party.

NEW ORLEANS, November 10.-At a meet
ing of the Louisiana Sugar-Planters' AS
ISOLATION last night Mr.. John Dymond said
that his information from the sugar dislrlct
was 10 the effect that the yield was very
good, the crop being estimated at 100000
Iogshcads. Mr.. +. Giifcn, the secretary,
said that during the past month he had
visited Rapides, Avoyelles. st: Landry, ST.
Martin, Lafayette, st. Mary, Iberia, Terre-
bonnie, and Assumption. lie had never
seen finer crops. The average yield was
about 1000 pounds to the acre. The crop
would exceed 100000 hogsheads. In RAJ
pidcs parish the plantations were being
put in excellent condition. II was estl-
mated that the crop, but for the overflow,
would have reached 100000 hogshcadS;;
Mr. Gifen saw in Lafourche sixty acres OF
cane so thick that 4 rabbit could not pass
through it, and fifteen feet In height. The
estimated yield OF this land was set down
at three hogshcads per acre.

Pulaski County.

The worst feature by all odds OF the

taX-receipts IN blank by the collector
Quite a number OF these receipts were
voted upon at the different precincts. al.
though the ink with which the blank wa,
filled out on some OF them was hardly
dry This is to all appearances an open
and gross violation Of the spirit OF the law
that requires that such receipts shall be
paid for and taken out prior TO the day OF
election. The employment Of such measure,
shows that it was the set purpose OF the
managers OF the Malone machine to carry
the election at all hazards and by any
means, fair or foul. 1t is q reproach upon

Intinidatiug Voters.

The nayy-yard was run in the interest
of the CoalitiOnists for all it was worth.
An unusually large number Of men were
taken in there to work, and some were
brought down from other portions OF the
state. We are informed 10y persons who
were present at the Fourtll-Ward polls
that on the day Of the election the Codli-
tionsts took very careful measures to see
that the men employed in the nayy-yard
voted the Coalition ticket. In order to
prevent any OF the men voting the Demo
cratic ticket, a man was stationed imme-
diately ut the polls with Coalition tickets,
and no one else was allowed to distribute
them. When a navy-yard man came up TO
vote, he had TO get his ticket from this man
and hand ii Immediately up TO the judge
OF election. No liberty Of thought or
action was allowed, and the names OF those
who refused to take their tickets from the

were written down for diSchargefrom en-

MR.. BLISS. PRESIDENT ARTHuRs INTIMATE
rnIySD. GIVES UP TIE FIGHT.

Mr.. BLISS. PRESIDENT ARTHURs INTIMATE
FRIEND, GIVES UP THE FIGHT.
The following Is from the New York
Times (Republican): ..;,.o
MIR. George Bliss has representative
character. Whatever he may claim or u.s.
claim. he il known to be in the confidence
OF the President as perhaps no other man
Is. lie NAV not speak for Mr. Arthur, but
there l. such q sympathy and mutual I'M
derstarding between them that WE may ne
sure that what he says represents the opln-
ions of the distinguished city politician
who now occupies the seat TO when Tar
field was elected. This fact alone gives
special interest 10 his utterances. Mt. bliss
was asked Yesterday to give his views upon
the present political situation; to state now
he accounted for the Republican overthrow
Of Tuesday, and in regard to the tut''re OF
the party. In reply TO the latter question
he said: -,
81 have little faith that the control which
has been given 10 the Democracy by the
! result OF last weeks elections can be
wrested from them prior to the next presl-
dental election. My feeling about That Is
this: The men who feel to-day that they
have been stricken down 10y the acts OF
their fellow-Repubicans are, | am afraid,
so human that when next year or the year
after some one OF those iellow-Republicans
comes up for support they VIII he apt 10
apply to him the same treatment which has
| been applied TO FOlgcr. For instance, sup
pose some man comes up rs candl-
| date who is recognized a. a Blaine man.
| Can there be any question that a sum
cient number OF Republicans in the
| state OF New York would he either
hostile TO him or lukewarm to prevent the
state from being carried by the Kepubll-
cans? Would not the same thing prevail
| in the ease OF Cornell man, ii indeed Cor
neil has sufficient political vitality to con-
tinue 4 factor in the Republican problem
| The same would be true in the nation, and
therefore all that seems TO ne 10 remain
would be the nomination Of some neutral
man OF no color, OF good character, and
! little ability-sOme second liaycs-and
think there are enough Republicans in the
country who would he determined not
to support any man OF that character to
insure his defeat. These are my View
OF the prospects. ] am not depressed by
them. because ! think the country can
even stand one term OF 4 Democratic Ad-
ministratiOn. | do not believe that party
could get Itself together, put on is good
clothes ana good conduct long enough to
have any chance OF more than one term
| ought TO say, also. that when such a con-
dition OF things comes rs we now have:
where really there is no issue Of principle
between the two parties, il is almost in
eyitablc that the 'ins shall be turned oui
by the natural desire OF the people TO hav,
a clange-a desire. Of course, intensified
by the TACT that one party ha, been in power
in the nation for twenty years.
