A New York Democratic Paper Pleased
with Their Condition.
NV YORK, November. l4.-Specials from
Nashville and Eufaula, state that needless
or audacious persons are inaaming to .
dangerous point the feelings of the more
ignorant negroes,,b leading them to believe
that the return OF the Democratic party to
power will be followed by the restoration Of
slavery. 1t is alleged that the large fires At
Palatka and Eufaula, and the attempts at
arson recently reported in other places are
due to the disordered condition Of the
minds of the colored people. The Times
has an editorial on the subject compliment
ing the Atlanta Constitution and the Mem
phis Appeal upon their efforts to reassure
the negroes. The Times adds, that at no
time since 1876 has there been any reason
to suppose that the success OF either
partv, in national election, would
affect the social or political con.
dition of the blacks Since that period
the general Government has not under
taken any function in the South other than
It undertook in the North. The distrust en-
tertained BY the blacks, however, is thought
by the Times to indicate the falsity OF the
claim formerly made that the negroes were
eontented and happy under slavery: The
Times reioices that BY Clevelands election
the whites are deprived of any excuse FOL
insisting on the color line" in local poll
les 10 the danger of the social condition.

Democratic campaign fund. "My reason
for wishing to deny the statement that Van

Influences whose aid, when given at all was
wholly and unstintedly devoted to the ser
vice of Blaine. While the campaign OF
Cleveland was dependent upon the popular
support given for the most part in small
sums. Some wealthy Democrats did their
share, as did also several Independent Re,
publicars Of large means, but there was no

THE AGONY SOON OVER

New York, November l4-Allthe coun-
ties in this State have sent in their official
returns except New York, Erie and Mon
roe. fthere is no change in the plurality
of these three counties from that which was
reported by their county clerksjust before the
canvass Of returns began, Clevelands plu-
rafty in the State will be l,26S. The 81
counties which have reported show gains
for Cleveland Of 27 losses for Cleveland
of 40; gains for Blaine Of Is, and losses for
Blaine of Ii. The canvass in New York
county for the six districts already
reported is as follows: Cleveland's
gains l2; Ceveland's losses l6O;
Blaine gains 70, Blaines losses Gl.
Net gain for Blaine l66. This does not in
clude the differences already noted in the
incompleted canvass of the first and seventh
Assembly districts, nor are the changes in
New York county included in this statement
of the vote, which puts Cleveland plurality

ton district Of this city, which was sent back
to the inspector Yesterday for correction in
its form, was counted election night as hav'
ing given A for Blaine, l9S for Cleveland.
for Butler. The sixth, nineteenth and
twenty.sixth precints Of the the
seventh Assembly district, which were
similarly returned for correction
gave according to the first figures reported

these figures are not changed the First dis
trict will show gain Of for Blaine over
the figures of November 9Th, and loss for
Cleveland of 40. The seven districts will
show gain for Blaine of 2l5 and gain
for Cleveland of 81. 1t is claimed by the
Democrats that the first count in these two
districts was incorrect and that the finaI
canvass will show little or no gain for either
side. The official vote of Kings county a:
announced this evening gives Cleveland

During the current fiscal year nearly

be removed from bonded warehouses, and
either exported or thrown upon the market
In the latter event nearly thirty million dol
lars in taxes must be paid to the government
by the owners of the whisky. This tax, if
enforced, means ruin to these owners, and,
It is said, will involve the fall Of many banks
which have made heavy loans secured by
this commodity. If three or tour millions
of gallons are thrown upon che market per
month there is no limit to which the price
may not fall 1t costs about sixteen cents
to make gallon Of whisky, aud the tax IS
ninety cents. There is going to be heavy

tached to the works of the Charles Pratt
