Trains, like ships are cast in the femi-
nine gender by their operators, and the
moment the ''two-twenty" is started, the
dispatcher telegraphs by an ordinarvin-
! strument the number of ears she includes

| Mott Haven that the latter offieialtmay
see that no cars have been inadvertently
left behind. and at the same time he de-
presses another of the small ivory KEYS.
which blocks the railway from the
| "cross-over" At Fifty-third street to the
depot. A word OF explanation is neces-
sary here. The outgoing trains leave
the depot and proceed as far as the
fcroSs-oVer" on the western tracks,
where they are thrown over to the east
ern tracks; similarly theincoming trains
approach the city. on he-western track
until they reach the 'cross-over, which
throws them to the eastern track the
change being necessitaf4d by the fact
that the depot must be approached from
the eastern side. Now TIE key which
the dispatcher touches as the .'two-
twenty" leaves the depot sets all the
signals in positions and colors which
forbid any train topass the ''cross-over"
until she is clear of it, and bell rings
continually with great liVeliness in the
dispatcher's lookout; but as she clears
it the bell ceases, and she touches a
track instrument which automatically
reverses all the signals, and slows that
the line is open for other trains. A..
track instrument is very

a slender iron shaft like a small street
hydrant, placed few inches from the.
rail, but the momentary pressure wire
connecting with it receives from the
passage of the train causes it to change
the color-of all the lamps used in signal
ing between the depot and the "croSs-
over at night, and all the daylight marks
used for the same purpose, by a magic
which eclipses the cleverest feats of
Heller. Before our cicerone has finished
his explanation a ''pinging" bell is heard,
announcing that the 'two-twenty" has
passed SeVenty-second Street; and by
this time another train is made up, and
the electrician is repeating his previous
performance on the ivory keys. The
position of the dispatcher is q most
responsible ones requiring the greatest
caution and an intense degree OF appli-
ca ion. Until he "two-twea;y" clears
Seventy-seeond street the train is blocked

=. wo-a 70 the Colored People.

The eolored people seem very much ue-
pressed at the result of the election Iney
appear to think that the triumph oil tne
Democratic party darkens the horizon Oh
their future. In this city, yesterday 'ne
expression of this sentiment was very
general among them.
There is no better time than the present
TO saw a word to them. They need nave
no fears that there will be any attempt
bv the Democratic party to abridge any
of the rights and privileges which they
now epioy. or to which they are entitled.
The Democratic party entertains no
feeling of hostility to the cOlored people,
and the Democrats of the South are much
more ready to assist the colOred people
and help them improve their condition
than the Republicans, North or South,
have ever been.
The Republican party has no sympathy
with the colored people. 1t has pretend
ed to be their friend for the purpose OF
using them to maintain itself in power.
In the North there is not the same kindly
feeling between the white and colored
people as there is in the South.
The colored people want to get rid OF
the idea that the Republican party Sc
cured them their freedom, and that they
therefore. owe it debt of gratitude. The
war was not undertaken to abolish
! slavery. The abolition of slavery was one
| of the results of the war which was par
ticipated in by Democrats and Republi-
\ cans alike.
There are some colOred people who are
foolish enough to believe that the success
! Of the Democratic party will put them
back into slavery. There is not a sane
man in the South who would have
slavery re-established, were such a
| thing possible. The rights Of the
cOlored people as freemen are Sc
cure under any and all administrations
of the government, and the people of no
section of the Union would do more, or
even as much, to protect them in their
rights than their friends and neighbors,
the white people of the South.
This great Democratic victory means
| gOod-nOt harm-tO the cOlOred people
As long as the North remained sOlidly
Republican the South was certain to re.
main sOlidly Democratic. Now, that the
Democratic party is the dominant party
OF the country, the chances are thai
t6ings will so shape themselves in the
South that the opportunities Of colorec
men to advance. as their race increases ii
intelligence and improves its condition
will be far greater than they are a
present.
They can depend upon it that there viii
be no effort to make them feel that they
deserve some sort of punishment for al
living themselves so closely with the Re
publican party. Their schools will not
be interfered with, and no obstacle will be
placed in the way of their improvement
On the contrary, the record Of the Demo
cratic party in this and other Southern
States justifies the statement that ii they
will practice the virtues which tend tC
promote their welfare, they will find q
helpful friend in the party that is soon &c
| administer the affairs Of the nation.

Yesterday in Savannah.

Yesterday was day OF rejoicing IN Ihls
CITY. No such scenes have been wit
messed here since 1860. The streets wore
holiday appearance, and almost the en-
tire population gave itself up to the en-
inyment Of the great Democratic victory.
Very little business was done. Men did
not care to attend to business. They felt
and acted as if they had been relieved of
a great burden. Many of them closed
their stores. AT the Cotton Exchange
men clasped each others hands with
feelings that were something new in their
experience. and spoke words that showed
how sincerely and profoundly grateful
they were for the victory that removed
the last obstacle in the way of the most
complete harmony Of thought and feeling
between the North and South. Groups
gathered in the streets and discussed the
Democratic triumph in all its phases, and
concluded that what they had longed for
Sc many years promised a glori-
Gus future. Ladies and children
partook of the general enthusiasm,
and exhibited their JOY in a variety Of
ways. Although tie MORNING NEWS
had announced Cleyeland's election on
Wednesday and Thursday mornings, the
cOnfirmatOry dispatches which 1t con-
tanned on Friday morning were necessary
10 remove all doubt. When the people
had read the MORNING News therefore
on Friday morning they realized that the
day was marked for holiday. Even the
few doubling ones had their doubts re-
moved by dispatches received later in the
day. Another day has been selected for
a formal celebration, but on no other
occasion will such an exhibition of heart
felt iOy be possible.

H.. National Democratic Committee, Inc
Vow York state Democratic Central
Committee. the leading Democratic pa
ners and several Of the leading Republi-
cad papers Of New York have said that
Cleveland and Hendricks have plurality
in the state of New York.
The statement, therefore, which appears
in an address issued by the National
Democratic Committee yesterday, and
which we publish this morning, that the
Republican managers are attempting TO
count the State for Blaine by unfair
means, is surprising and startling.
1t is clear that the Republican party
does not intend TO yield the control OF the
government without q struggle. The sit
uation may not yet be alarming, but 1t Is
evident that a threatening condition OF
affairs is possible: otherwise the National
Democratic Committee would not have
issued the address.
The occasion calls for calm cOunsels
and cooI heads. 1t must be borne in mind
that while the whole country lie deeply
and profoundly interested in this matter,
the dispute is confined to the count OF
New York alone.
We think it would be wise for the rec
ognized leaders Of the Democratic party
OF Chatham county to meet this morning
and decide what course ought to be pur-
sued with regard to expressing the sentl-
ments Of the Democracy Of this city on
! the situation presented in the address.
When the Republican National Com
mittee issued an address Thursday We
scarcely gave it a second thought. We
looked upon it simply as an acknOwledg
ment OF defeat. This address Of the Ma
/ tiOnal Democratic Committee means moth
ing of that kind. The Democracy of thu
country wants only fair count.

The Victory and Its Results.

1t will be several days before the cOun-
try will be able to fully realize that the
control of the government will pass from
the Republican party. That party has
been in power so long that the impression
began to be entertained that it could not
be ousted. Its great army Of Ofice-hOld-
ers. its immense financial resources, and
its unscrupulOusness were all advanced
as reasons why it would remain in pos
session.
The victory won 10y the Democratic
party is great. not only on account of the
results that will flow from it, but, also,
because it was secured against such
tremendous odds.
The Republican party will take the
place of the opposition with the prospect
that it will never return again to power.
The Democratic party, if it pursues wise
and conservative course and there is every
reason to think that it will, has every
reason to expect 10 be entrusted with the
administration of the government for the
next quarter of a century.
1t is able to point with pride
to the many years of its success
full direction of national affairs be-
fore the Republican party successfully
contested its supremacy as an indication
of what may be expected Of it when 1t
again comes into power. Those years
were among the most prosperous of the
country. All the industries and varied
interests developed rapidly and health
fully. The influence of the government
was not lent to great stock gamblers, and
the public domain was preserved for ac-
tuaI settlers. Such things as star route
aud whisky ring frauds were unknown.
On the escutcheOn of the Democratic
party there are no spots. The record of
the party is clean, and the fact that the
people lave honored it proves that they
axe confident that it will give them an
honest and a wise government.
The campaign was memorable one.
From the beginning it was conducted
with extraordinary vigor and great Bit
terness by both parties. The impression
Of the leaders and Of those who watched
the political signs closely was that the
contest would be remarkably close in the
States that were considered necessary to
the successful candidate. This impress
sion proved to be correct.
Now that the suspense is over and the
result is known, the country will breathe
freer. Business which became depressed
soon after the campaign began, and which
came almost TO a standstill while the re-
suit Of the ballOting was in doubt, viii
now show new life. The people Of all
classes have reason TO be thankful that
the election is over.

Something TO be Grateful For.

Something to be Grateful For.
There is one thing the entire country
ought to be grateful for, and that is that
Buffers vote almost everywhere was so
small as to preclude the idea that that
demagogue will ever appear in national
politics again.
He has never been true to any party to
which he became allied. Before the war
a Democrat, and after the war Repubh-
can. he came back to the Democratic party
a few years ago only to betray it. He ought
not to have been accorded any recogni-
ton at the Chicago Convention. Doubt
less it was his purpose when posing be-
fore the convention as model statesman
to desert and betray the Democratic
party if his ambition were not gratitied
BY the nomination. If the state
ments published during the cam
paign are true it was not
many weeks after the convention before
he had completed a bargain with the Re-
publican party. Rule or ruin is his
motto, and finding that he could not con-
troll the Democratic party, as he hoped,
/ he made up his mind to do it whatever
Injury he could.
Even Massachusetts, that hOnored him
once by making him her Gov
| ernor, did not give him a
vote that was at all satisfactory
! TO a man Of his pretensions. He had an
idea that the wOTkingmen all over the
| country were anxious to show their ap-
probation of him. 1t is probable that be
is now convinced that the wOrkingmen
have made up their minds that they can
get along very well without him. If his
agreement with the Republican mana
ayers had been discovered a little sooner
it is probable that his vote would not have
been half as large as it was.
