A Virtuous Crowd.

The gentlemen who spoke at the Demo
cratic meeting on Saturday night were very
bitter In their denuncation of what they
styled ga plot" on the part of the Republi-
cans to cheat Cleveland out of his alleged
election. They had not one particle Of evil
demo to show that any such plot existed, OF
was meditated. Yet they fought the wind
mill vigorously and some of them we're EVIL
IDENTIFY thirsting for gore. We should take
much more stock in the virtuous indignation
which the gentlemen pretend to feel in the
presence of supposed fraud if they had con-
Quoted differently few years ago. With one
exception all the speakers at the meeting
either looked on in silence or assisted with
their counsel, one of the most barefaced
plots to defeat the result of an election that
this country has ever seen. We refer of
course to the count-out engineered by Tabu-
lator Chase and his associates. Mr. Putnam,
to his credit be it said, did on every occasion
denounce that scheme, but all the rest of
them saw the plot Matched and knew per-
fecty well that 1t was plot to defeat the
popular win by fraud. None of them, how
ever, ever raised their voices at the meetings
that were held in this city to denounce that
plot, and two Of them, we have the authority
of Tabulator Chase for saying, to some ex-
tent assisted by their counsel in its develop
ment. The inference is inevitable that it
makes great difference with these gentle
men whose OK is gored. When the frard
will inure to the temporary advantage of
their own party they are silent; when it
tends the other way the English language is
inadequate to enable them to vaunt their
virtua

We have a profound sympathy with those
of our readers who have been disappointed
by the character of the latest news we have
had to give them every morning since the
election. We have not enjoyed that kind of
a breakfast ourselves, and if we could have
made it different by putting over the news
headlines that did not fairly indicate its sig
nifcance we would have made Mr.. Blaine's
election certain every morning. The Ma
tional Republican Committee still eneour-
ages us to hope that we may have chicken
on the bill of fare some morning soon. We
are obliged to differ with those who think il
would have been good thing for us to exult
over the dispatches received after midnight
which knocked over every fair promise of
the day. It is our business to report the re-
tnrns as they are received. We do not make
them we cannot honestly change them; and
they ko not justify us in pretending to be
joyful. Republicans generally have not
been setting off fireworks or painting the
town red on account of the returns; but
there are people who appear to think the
PRESS should have done some foolish thing
of that sort. Davy Crocker's motto was ''Be
sure you are right, then go ahead" We
like to be sure of victory before we crow.

Again we are able to commend the last
number of this Review as an improvement on
its predecessors. Its claim to the attention of
the public is its happy combination of the old
with the new learning There is no divorce of
the present age from the past, but the law of
progress is clearly demonstrated and illustrated
In its pages. All questions of interest to our
Age receive attention and are handled with
vigor and fairness.
In this number we have a candid statement
of The Future Life" from the standpoint of
the Old Testament. This is followed by dis
sertation on the Comparative Advantages of
Competition and Com bination." DR. Peabody
gives us an interesting article on Plutarch, and
Professor Richardson writes well on "Ameri-
can Literature" The editorials are up to the
usual mark of excellence, and altogether we
have for November q number equal, if not su-
perior, to any that have gone before. The Re-
view is doing much needed, and most impor-
tant work, and doing it in a manner worthy
of the high reputation of its editors and chief
contributors. Hoyt, Fogg & Donham are the
agents for this CITY.

The November Mateors.

(frOVlueBce Joufnai)
The earth, as she swings her ponderous
bulk in her orbit, encounters about Novem-
Der Is the meteor zone. This gigantic hoop
or ellipse consists of swarm of particles
following Temples comet in its orbit. The
unfortunate visitor from the star depths, on
arriving within the solar domain, unwarily
ventured too near the planet Uranus. The
planet captured the comet, and forced it
henceforth to revolve within the boundaries
of the solar system, the event probably oc-
curing in the second century of the Chris
tian era. The perihelion of the comets or
bit rests on the earth's orbit, where she
passes on November IS, and its appelation
extends beyond the orbit of Uranus. A
process of disintegration is going on, and
the debris of the comet and the comet and
the swarm of meteors are gradually scatter
ing through the whole zone, only One-tenth
of which is now filed densey with the me-
teor swarms. The period of revolution is
about thirty-three years, and grand dis
play occurs only at these intervals, when
the earth crosses the densest portion of
the zone. The last memorable display was
in 1867, the next is expected in 1899. OBJ
servers on the nights of the 18th, 18th, 18th
and 18th will be sure to see few meteors
radiating from the constellation Leo, an
there is always possibility that an unex-
pected number of falling stars may make the
heavens resplen6ent with their fiery trains.

Moon Blindness.
[Londen Times,1


Judging by what is known of the preva-
ence of color blindness, there may possibly
be something in the suggestion which Vice
Admiral Close has offered about the loss of
the Wasp. There exists, it seems, form of
defective sight known as moon-blindness, /"
persons afflicted with which are unable to
perceive light shining in darkness. 1t is
easy to see the consequences of this infirmi-
ty in the navigating officer of ship. Admi-
raj Close says he nearly lost Ell. M. S. Tri-
dent once from this cause, only discovering
in the nick of time that his navigating Off
Ger was unable to see the light of a light
house half mile distant. II moon-blind-
ness is an established fact ia medical SCI
ence, the sooner provision for detecting it is
made in the examination Of naval lieuten-
ants the better. Personally, venture to
think that the Wasp was lost through the
incapacity of the crew to manage vessel
under sail.

The Boston Globe, good Democratic au-
thofity, we suppose, affirms that "there is
no State north of Mason & Dixon's line
where the Democrats have such complete
control of the election returns as in the
Empire State" The New Yorh Post, good
Independent authority we suppose, afirms
that the safeguards are such that fraud in
counting or declaring the vote of New York
is absolutely impossible. Thus we have it on
the authority of two Cleveland organs, first
that fraud is impossible, and second, that if
1t we're possible it wouldlbe only possible to
the Democrats who have coutrol Ct all the
counting machinery. In the face of these
facts can anybody tell what the Democrats
are making all this fuss about? Why are
they shouting fraud and making threats of
violence if matters do not turn out to suit
them? Are they afraid thai some of their
own counters are too honest to count in
Cleveland when he does not have plurality
of the votes? and are they making all this
noise for The purpose of intimidating them?
or have they all gone daft al the prospect of
success?

chairman of the Democratic State Committee
of Louisiana proclaiming that the election of

just now II they had man of acknowledged
integrity at the head of their national committee
Such man would be a garantee that the Dem
ocrats proposed to act fairly and honestly in
regard to the vote of New York. But the rep
utation of William a. Barnum is such that
people cannot help thinking that if chicanery
and fraud are necessary to secure for Cleve-
land votes in New York State their national
committee will not hesitate to practice them.
A man who conniyed at the Morey letter forg-
cry is net likely to be squeamish even in chang
ing figures in an election return.
