From the Atlanta Consultation.
Thunder and lightning is that a
cyclone p These words were uttered in
"a tragic tone by a terrified lodger on
Alabama street yesterday morning, who
was aroused from bis sium hers before
daybreak by sounds like the promonitory
rumblings OF an earthquake or the dread
ful murmuTs of western blizzard. He
made rapid toilet, and, rusning down
stairs, appeared az the front door attired
in plug hat and pair of suspauders to
inquire into the cause of tho cOmmOtion.
Unincumbered by clothing Of any oonse.
quencc, he was prepared for fighting or to
take any measures requiring agility for
bis safety. Casting his eager eyes down
the street, about a block away. he saw a
great cloud of dust by the moonlight, from
the midst Of which the noise seemed to
issue.
At each succeeding second the sounds
were nearer, clearer aud, 10 his startled
imagination, deadier thar before. Hastily
climbing neighboring lamp post, and
from that point of vantage he waited for
results The monster soon hove aiOngsids
tue young man and the lamp, where they
stopped the machine 10 iubTiclts. The
daring spirit OF the youth sustained him
on his lofty perch until the strange con-
cern reached hin, when he was suff0catcd
by the dust aud fell q victim to his
temsrity. The Alabama street youth ex-
planned that his situation on the lamp
post and the panic terror preceding his
occupying the same had not arisen from
ignorance, as he had read III tho papers
that new street sweeper bad been pur-
chased but no hal no iieI it was the
great machine it was--calculated 10 tear
up the earth aud scatter its chaotic frag-
ments 10 the confines of an iLfinite un-
known. The street sweeper will hereafter
DO operated at midnight, as in other cities,
aud the dust and noise will be obviated to
great extent when tho mon become
familiar with its workings.

The New York CITY Vote.

AL the trouble about the vote OF New
York state has resulted from the failure
Of the Democrats of New York city to
vote for Cleveland. Blaine received
so 847 votes in the city TO 13S ,0S0 cast
for the Democratic presidential electors.
Bntler had 8 470 votes, and St. John
1,036, making a total vote of 27,433
The vote cast for mayor aud the other
officers fools up within a thousand or
two thousand of this figure. There is a
notable difference. however in the vote
cast for the city officers of the Republi
cans and that for Blaine. Their caudi-
date for mayor polled but fortY-four
Thousand votes {; for district attorney
sixty seven thousand and for comptroller
sixty four thousand, Blaine, therefore,
ran twenty two thousand ahead of the
highest candidate on the city ticket and
forty six thousand ahead of the lowest.
Aud this, Notwithstanding the Iude
pendens Republicans, who voted against
him, but for the candidates of theiI
party. Evidently Blaine got twenty
thousand Democratic votes and in ad
dition just the number OF Democratic
votes that represent the Independent
Republican vote of New York, which
cannot well be put at less than twenty
or twenty FIVE thousand.
L. Clearly appears therefore that forty
or iifty thousand Democratic votes in
New York city were given to Blaine.
Why and by whom Evidently there
was a motive for the transfer and it IS
found in the desire of the Democratic
local leaders TO elect their local ticket,
which is their bread and butter and
plumber. There were two of these or
ganizations, Tammany Hall and the
County Democracy. Which traded its
vote for president for the Republican
vote for its city ticket /? The culprit
nearly certainly appears to be the County
Democracy, the original friends and
supporters OF Cleveland. This
sufficiently appears from their ex-
tra0rdinary vote and the fact tha,
they got what they sought to buy
Tney elected their local ticket. They
polled ninety-six thousand votes fol
their candidate for mayor, eighty seven
Thousand for their district attorney and
eigbty-fve thousand for their comptrol-
ier. 1t this treachery should be proved
upon them, what shall be done with
tner Leaders,! Isthere any punish ment
700 severe Tor such despicable villiany ?

FaUnsDAY EVENING nov, Q. 1884.
The presIdent, Cieyeiaud.

We have no reason to-day to change
4 ths belief we have expressed that Cleve-
and and Hendricks have been elected
u 4 decided majority OF the electoral
s o0llege. The notable feature of the
siturticn is the boldness and persistency
With which the Republican chairmen
maintain their claim that Blaine is
elected, without producing the flgures
upon which their faith Is founded. With
New York, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michi
nan and California close, all OF which
Blaine needs, yet the utmost confidence
y expressed in his election by the Re
publican national committee and the cue
- taken BY the state committees. The
public excitement is kept ut fever heat
By these claims, and by the apparent
O0lOrIng of the Associated Press
dispatches to suit the position taken by
the Republican authorities. When it is
( remembered that jaw Gould controls the
Western Union, which sends the Asso
ciated Press news, and Mr.. Gould's IS
character and alliance with Blaine is re
called, there seems to be good ground
3pr the suspicion that the Western
Unions wires are being manipulated to
color the returns in favor Of Blaine
And the further suspicion is thereby
prompted that the Republican committee
may be preparing to tamper with the
vote IN the close states, when 1t is suffi-
eientiy advised as to what Is needed
and where the work may be done.
It msnifestly would be useless to con
Ceal the true election returns il there was
no effort OF that sort con templated.
When we consider that this same trick
was successfully tried eight Years ago
and that then Is.-ha.a..di. a...i. q ike uncertainty
zsch Of tiection result for days sue
ceeding the poll, we have further reason
for suspecting another assault upon the
Integrity of the ballot iu this election.
II appears from report IL the New
York sun from Indiana that the Asso-
Ciated Press estimates from there have
been made up from the gains in Repub-
lican counties. There have certainly
been very conflicting reports from Indi-
ana, and they have been doubtless caused
by the bias of those who made them up.
It may be that the unfalrness of the
press reports has not been dictatei
from Republican headquarters. The
fact Is it not easy to believe that the
Republican national committee would be
foolish enough to undertake TO play over
again the old game which was once sue.
cessful, but cannot certainly be again
ventured in the present state of public
feeling, after the warning furnished by
the narrow escape OF the other venture
from embroiling the country in civil
war. The Republican party would not
to-day stand behind its managers In
any attempt to defeat the election.
And if any other idea has been held
by chairman Jones and his advisers. it
has apparently been now abandoned |;
from the fact that his moutbpiece
and Jay uld's, the New York Tribune,
is at length reported to have conceded
New York to Cleveland, and his election
OF one thing we are sure that if We have
elected him, he will be inaugurated.
There will not be second failure in our
generation of the people to seat their
presidential choice.

The American Agriculturist says: GAS is
known, bees become irritable if handled after
gathering ceases in the autumn. To take out
extra comb, extract the uncapped honey and
prepare for winter is often the most dreaded
work of the season. The bees seem cross at the
failure to obtain labor, and cannot endure dis
turbance. By using a bee tent made of wire
gauze or mosquito netting, and large enough to
set over the hive and operator, all this danger
and trouble is avoided. The bees are apparently
frightened into good behavior, and are as amia-
BILE as though in the midst of the honey harvest.
The bee tent also prevents robbing, which is
likely TO be induced if we work with the bees
when they are irritable from enforced idleness. -

Those who breed poultry are often preplexed
to know why the late Matched chicks do not
thrive as well as those Matched early in the sea
son. In nearly all cases the difficulty may be
traced to lice, which prey so greedily upon the
chicks matched in warm weather as to make
them feeble and subject to disease. The best
remedy for them is to dust the chicks with Per
sian insect powder and thoroughly clean the
