The Republican pnners are well aware that while the parly they represent can. herc and there, beat the Democrats mid Greenbackers separated, lt ls powerless tu do PO when tltc*e elements arc united. Henceforth, it will be the aim ol'one side to keep thi" division open, and the effort, tin tho other side, to heal the breach, Upon the success of ono or the other, the Presidential election largely depends, The Democrats aiu kio doubt agreed thal they have before them a work of exceeding dillieulty, if the next Presi dency is to bc won. False hopes and *hort-sighted leaders hud hilled them into security. The rude, but we trust salutary, result? of the past week are he lore them. Thc St. Louis Jlcpubfican teaches a solid truth when it Insist-, that there must be, in future, "thorough unity of action ; no division of forces ; no rid ing of local hobbles; no advocating of both sides of the same question ; no run ning after false gods. The enemy is w ide awake and ready to seize and im prove every advantage Democratic disor ganization may e'er. Those who think there will be a Democratic 'walk over' in 1880 aro fools or blind. It promises to be'the bitterest and most desperate strug gle iu the annuls of American politics. The party which bas bud twenty years' unbroken lease of power will not fall to pieces and give up the ghost ut thc blow ing of rams' horns. It will contest every inch of ground, and die, if die it must, sword in baud and in thu hist ditch. If there arc any first-cluss Democratic gen erals the sooner they come together in a council of war and decide where and how thc approaching battle shall be fought, the better for the party prospects. We cannot win by 'bull-luck and awk wardness' the next time." The Republican leud?is know very well that the people have not intended to endorse their ?last or present conduct, but to put the Democrats on good be havior. This reaction idiould bear good iruit with wise men. T .e New York Journal of Commerce states a fact worth heeding when it declares that "thc Dem ocrats may recover more than they have lost, and go into power with a tri umphant majority nt the next Presiden tial election ii" they will manifest more courage and patriotism and less party selfishness. The mass of thc people are -till uneasy nud restless, and oppressed with grievoU) financial burdens; but they will not consent that their discon lent ahull be used for mere party advan tage, and nothing come of it that prom ?st's lo better their condition." (Ireat dissatisfaction is expressed in some quarters nt thc management of the Democratic National Executive Coin millee, under the lead of Senator Har num. It is said that Mr. Barnum is the wann personal adh?rent of Mr. Tilden, which has also made him obnoxious to those Democrats who are hostile lo that gentleman. It is asserted by those who assume lo know that Mr. Durnum'* efforts during the campnign were con lined almost exclusively to thc election of members of thc Connecticut Legisla ture with u view tu his own return as Senator, and that be showed but little practical interest in thc election of Dem ocratic members of Congress anywhere i lse. A well advised and reliable cor respondent at thc Federal Capital de clares that "these matters are freely talked of in Democratic circles, whether ha.-ed upon actual facts or not. As Chairman of thc National Committee, Mr. barnum bus it in his po' sr to delay thc next meeting of the committee for ?onie time, and it is possible ibut by the time thc next meeting does take place thc dissatisfaction which now exists may bo appeased. Possible, but not probable, fur il is almost inevitable that a struggle between thu Tilden and the auti-Tilden clements will occur wbcii the committee docs meet for business, lt has always been considered, and correctly, that the locality where the national conventions are held has much influence ou thc for tunes of eandidates for the. Presidential nomination, and this will bo une point where thc Tilden and the auti-Tilden suies must, lock horns. The committee ?iii nut have to meet to decide thia for a very long time yet, but there arc other matters which will claim its attention in a 1 vance, and the dissensions and dif ferences will be likely to lind veut. As i" ibu intention of Mr. Tilden to have his name brought before the next Na tional Democratic Convention it is be lieved by many that there is not thc shadow of a doubt." As Mr. Darnum has not been able to get the endorsement of his own State, in spite of all his money anil diplomacy, we think a BUCCeessnr lo his Presidency of thc Committee advisable, and that he should resign, so that a man who can command more confidence may bc elect ed, ile, as the friend of Tilden, will probably prefer to stick, the more so as New York has become perhaps essential to Democratic success in 1880. A very independent observer in the Springfield Republican demonstrates that practically .be chance of a Republican President in 1880 depends on that party's carrying New York. Connecticut, New Jersey, Ohio anti Oregon will make but 181 Re publican votes, or 4 short of a majority. ?Villi New York on the Republican side, either New Jersey alone, or Connecticut ant] Oregon t-gethc-r, would make just a majority, wi.iic Ohio would make a Re publican majority of 27, if all three other States went Democratic. On the other mind, the Dem?crata could loso New \?rk and still elect their President, pro vided they carried Ohio. New Jamey, ?od either Connecticut or Oregon. Prac tically therefore tho issue hinges on New > mk, and while a good many things .nay happen in two year?, it is certainly nur to say that to-day the Republicans *y>rid an even chance of carrying New Virk and with it the Presidential elec tion in 1H80. lt is this necessity of New York's vote ?hut makes Mr. Tilden so important a factor in any programme for. future ac ll(,n. If he should make it appvnr that no man other thar, himself car. carry new York io.- tho Democratic party, he will not bc easily got rid of in thc next Rational Convention.-Chronicle ?

The NatioqtU f?ty}itblii}an? of this city, will to-morrow publia h Hie following ?? tho views bl* Ute President in regard to Hie situation in the South. lu answer to il Question at to whether tho Southern policy had been discussed in the Cabinet the President in reported to have said : "That is a mistake ; thc time for discus sion !<as passed. It is now too late for anything but tho most determined and vigorous action. The determination was reached several days ago, and the delib erations of the Cabinet on thia subject since then have been comparatively brief and confined mainly tt> the consideration of thc duty hf the Attorney General in tho premises." The President has always thought that his policy would win luck the South. He was asked bow bc ac counted for the reRuit in the face of thu fair promises of the Boutin "The ques tion," said ho, "leads directly to a dis cussion of what bas been latterly termed the Southern policy ol' tho Administra tion. When that poliey was first inau gurated it was an earnest desire to con ciliate the Southern leaders to round off the sharp angles of sectional difference and to soften the asperities of political strife. No olio will deny that the attempt to enforce this policy was most earnestly made, nor that it was cat ried out with a conscientious desire to, accomplish the result for which it had been inaugurated. Of thc personal and partisan sacrifices I made in this effort, and of the cons?quent iuteiruptioti of certain relations which had previously existed between myself and some of my supporters, I have noth ing to say just now. Hut it appears that the leaders who made those pledges either did not exert themselves to keep them or were unable to do so. In fact I am reluc tantly forced to admit that the experi ment was u failure. The first election of importance had since it was attempted has proved that fair elections, with free suffrage for every voter in the South, arc an impossibility under the existing con dition of things." "It ia not because the Republican party appears us the Bufferer in these results that I complain," con tinued the President, "it is because free suffrage und freedom of political rights have been interfered with that I am called upon to take cognizance of these disturbances. If the fact were exactly reversed, and if tho Republicans had committed the outrages upon thc Demo crats, my duty would be the same. It will not do for me, or for any official be fore whom these questions may corns, to treat them otherwise than in a non-parti san way. The partisan press will natu rally take a partisan view of the case, I will be held to account for aiding the Republicans-the stalwarts. I mean in flaunting the bloody shirt, as it is called." Mr. Hayes said further : "I can't ex pect to bold the office I do without be ing kicked and cuffed a little, you know, but for all that I shall do my duty as the Chief Magistrate of all the people, Dem ocrats and Republicans alike, and if, in thc faithful execution of the laws, justice shall demand the punishment of this or that man, whatever his political connec tions may be I shall not be deterred by partisan criticism. All that I know is that great crimes have been committed, and it is my duty to aid in the punish ment of the criminals." Tho President said 'hat "Governor liam pion, for ex ample, bas tried repeatedly to repress tlie violence which has characterized tho campaign in South Carolina, and failed: Such Republicans as Judge Lee and Mr. Rainey and ex-Senator Swails, of that State, have advised me of these fuchs. They say that Hampton cannot control thc 'red shirts,' as they call them, and they have repeatedly informed me of speeches he has made deprecating vio lence in the conduct of thc campaign. And it appears that CJov. Nicholl?, ir? Louisiana, is earnestly opposed to these proceedings or the same kind of violence in ???.-. ?tutu." The sensation in political circles to day is tho formal farewell ol' the New York ?SHH to Mr. Tilden, and its giving over to destruction thc Democratic party. Since the day when Gen. Grant refused to make Charles A. Dana Collector of the port of New York, that able editor has devoted all the influence of his jour nal lo denunciation of the Republican and advocacy of the Democratic party. A personal friend and warm admirer of Mr. Tilden, he lias stood by that gentle man through thick and thin. Since the organization of the Electoral Commission ti]) to the time <..' the publication ol' the cipher telegrams, he day by day piled column on column of fierce ami bitter wrath on the heads of those who deprived Mr. Tilden of ibu Presidency until even his incisive logic and brilliant rhetoric failed to redeem thc subject from utter weariness. Now Mr. Dana concedes, what has all along been charged, that to Mr. Tilden's own timidity and indecision was duo the loss of bis office, and be tells him that bo will never again bo thc Presidential candidate for any party. As for the Democratic party, as it now exista, be says "the observer cannot draw strength for a single patriotic hope." This article has created a profound sen sation. Republicans are delighted with it; Democrats are surprised. It was shown to the President, and after reading it bc smiled significantly, but made little comment. One member of the Cabinet . .??I he had been expecting something like this from Mr. Dana, as his paper had preserved an omnious silence tus to Mr. Tilden for some weeks. - When a woman is named "Enough" there must be a good reason for it. Dr. Drysdale, presidcut of the Malthusian League, sayB that he once met in an English hospital a young women of that name. She was the thiiteentb daughter of lier motlier,and was named "Enough" by a justly incensed father who evidently thought that mattera had gone far enough, and that a lino must be drawn. The mother of Enough did not take thc hint, lint gave birth to niuo moro children, making twenty-two in all. - Dr. Ii. W. Richardson, of London, says that delirium tremens is always pro duced by fusel oil and never by pure ethvlic alcohol, also, that all persons who have been long addicted to the usc of wine or spirits, even in slight excess, suffer habitually from dyspepsia. Next niter organic disease of thc stomach cirrhosis of the liver is Hie most conse quence of hard ?Irinking. A distinct lorin fit consumption, non-hereditary, is also a frequent result.

Yellow fever, Uko the cholera, ia one of the great migrating diseases. Start - iug from some point within the tropics, lt travels steadily onward from point to point as long us it does nut meet freezing weather; and it travels northward by preference-comparatively seldom to the southward of the z.mo from which it sets out. Thus Brazil bas nuITcred compara tively little from its epidemic visitations, though, as wo shall see, thc disease planted its germs long ago in Rio de Janeiro, on the extreme southern limit of the tropics. But its favorite cutirse li toward the norlin "Upon our Atlantic coasts)" says br. J. 0. Nott, a careful student and observer of its phenomena, "as on tlie coast of the Mediterranean, it comes from time to time in one of tbo.se immense waves that know no bounds and stop at no impediments. The distance to which the disc-use cKtclids sectus to depend much Upoti tho strength of the wave ; it first strikes the Gulf, and gene rally goes no farther. Occasionally it will break over the peninsula of Florida and reach Savannah and Charleston, lu 1805, after many years of immunity, it struck Norfolk with full force, and only a few ripples, as in 18A??, 18.r>G, 1870, have for half a century reached the Delaware Uiver and the Bay of New Y'ork." And the same observer, writing eight years ago, adds some words which have a grave significance to-day : "Yellow fever, after a long absence, never makes its rc-ap pearance in our Northern cities without a warning from ibo Oulf of Mexico. It is seen not only for months, but often for years, in vigorous action in its native habitat before it leaps over its accus tomed bounds; but when once on thc tramp, it may travel from Buenos Ayres to Quebec, leaving more graves in its track than Asiatic cholera. There is reason to fear that one of these eruptions is now marshalling ita forces." Let us glance at the course of one of these tipical epidemica-at thc one, for instance, which started as far away as Kio de Janeiro, twenty-eight years ago, and travelled in six years all tho way to New York-a journey ol nearly four thousand miles-in a great circle. A great many years before, so many that the inhabitants of Hio bad lost all re collection or tradition of the fact, thc yellow fever bad visited their city ; but now thc epidemic broke upon them like lightning from a clear sky. "This out break," saya Dr. Nott, "commenced in Rio in January, 1850, and traveled night and day for six years, making its expi ring effort in New Y'ork Bay in 185(5. I bau my eye upon this epidemic from its commencement, watching its steady courso and ravages along the Atlantic, Caribbean Sea, and Gulf of Mexico for several thousand miles. When it struck New Orlenns [1853] it was clear to my mind that our own coast was doomed, and before it reached Mobile I was BO certain it would come that I moved my family into the healthy pine bills, seveti miles from thc town, where thc disease had never been. But, in Bpi te "f all my prudence, the dis? is_? not only came to Mobile, but followed my family out to Spring Hill, where I lost four of my children in one week." DISSEMINATION OF YELLOW FEVER. How ia the disease disseminated? In two ways : in a given town or city, by a Blow and regular progression from house to house ; between distant places, by fol lowing the liues of travel and commerce. It i.-i carried with especial frequency by sailing ships, and generally makes its first appearance in a previously healthy place near tho docks and wharves. Whether the uart of tho town nearest tho water happet to bo a clean or a dirty quarter, a rich or a poor one, makes no difference. Clean streets do not check thc disease, nor does foulness favor its spreading. In 1857 the yellow fever pre vailed in that part of New Orleans which was, by official report, "in the best possi ble sanitary condition," and in no omer, though the rest of the city was and bad been for years almost indescribably filthy. Thc germs of thc disease aro portable, like bulk in freight, and they will lake root in any soil. They lurk in baggagc-cars, in boxes, and in clothing, in any loose-textured substance that is closely abut up, as even in cargoes of sugar. In porous materials like these fomitcx, as physicians call them-the poi son will hide and ripen for sOmc two months' time, and develop ita fullest strength of infection. A parcel sent from New Orleans may start an epidemic of yellow fever in Boston or Quebec. Thc disease is one of hot climates, and of low alluvial ground by preference, though any kind of soil will do for it, and any elevation above sen-level that is not loo great for the degree of heat re quired. That degree is a dnily average, continued for BOiiiO weeks together, of from 77? to 80? F.-a temperature which ia roached for a month or more together, and exceeded, during our moro than tor rid summers, in almost any of our towns and cities from Florida to Maine. Yel low fever haa prevailed aa far north even as Quebec, auil may extend as far again in thc future. Of the mysterious way in which the disease travels from house to house, a living messenger of death, wo know lit tle. Science bas not yet been able to seize upon tho secret of its cause, which in all cases is probably the same, though some observera think that there arc two distinct forma of the disease. Ia it in a microscopic plant or insect, too .-mal!, ?i""o>cr, for detection by tho highest magnifying power yet at our command, that its exciting cause consists ? That is probable. It ia supposed that these germs cuter the blood and destroy it by a process comparable to that which ia set up in yeast by fermentation. It has been suggested, very plausibly, that thia living germ can enter thc human body only at a particular stage of its own growth, and that when it baa completed its career by multiplying Ibero, it bas no power to leave that body and invade thc sanctuary of another isle. This theory would ac count for the non-contagiousness of the disease.-DR. T. M.

A Story of Ilia YlcUalmrji CaMn|Mtgn. lt appears tliut after Vicksburg lind been invested and tim Coutil threatened at other points, Governor Allen, of Louisiana, conceived tbe desperate idea of capturing ?be person of tirant. He believed that Graut was the evil genius of the Confederacy, and that if bc could bc killed or taken prisoner tho siege of Vicksburg could be raised and the Fed eral anny driven back. He sent for Joe Lee and i ni pa rt ed to him his thoughts, and asked him if bc could devin? n pliiti. It Was readily taken to by Lee, who im mediately proposed to execute the daring enterprise. At that lime-that is in the spring of 1801-Grant and his army were encamped ut Milligan's Mend, near Young's Point) Oil the Mississippi, some eighteen miles above Vicksburg. Gen eral ('rant's headquarters were in the dwelling hoUso that belonged to a mag nificent plantation, much of which can be seen from the deck cf a pnssing steam er. Joe Lee proposed togo to that house and bring away the body bf i.KNKKAI. (?KANT, DEAD OK ALIVE. He chose live out of his most trusty men. They were thc two James broth ers, two of the Younger brothers and John Jarrett. These with himself made six. There never were six better men for euch an expedition. They were young, strong und as brave as the brav est. They had already seen all there is in war. They bad been tried in the most trying places; bud sufi'eied nil manner of hardships) did not care much, wheth er they lived or (lied ? were the quick est and best shots in thc world, and rode the fleetcnt horses in the land. It was just before the Federal anny sent out on that surprising march down the west side of thc river. Thc country waa all full of marshes, bayous and morasses, so that thc natural advantages for thc exe cution of the plot were good. Thc plan was for Joe Lee und his five trusty fol lowers to dress Up lu full federal uni form, ride on horseback to Milligan's Bend, go direct to the house where Grant was stopping, rush in and secure his person, put him on a spine horse and then escape to thc swamps which were nearby. On one Saturday evening late lite party sci out from Dickson's house near Delhi end rode towards the Missis sippi. There was not a soul on earth be sides themselves and Governor Allen that knew of their desperate mission. It was something over twenty-five miles they bad to go, and tho night was a dark one, but long before day they were AT THC KIHI IC OF THE WOODS that bordered on thc plnntiV.ion on which Grant was quartered. There was no en emy to attack from thc west side, and there was no particular precaution about guards. The pickets were passed before sun up, and, while tho General was yet asleep, thc guerillas rode boldly up through the open field towards the house. There they were-six men-seven horses. The empty saddle for thc commander of the hundred thousand men who were camped about in every direction. They approached in almost a stone's throw of the house, when they met a negro. They were discovered, lt was ntl old man whom these very men bad run away from Delhi not ten days before. He knew them all and immediately gave the alarm. In a moment there was a great tumult, and thc six guerrillas bud nothing to do but save their lives. They broke through the field ?nd in tho twinkling o? an eye were back in the woods, but not until a hundred shots had been fired after them. Before the sun went down they were safe at their favo, ?j rendez vous. Thus was frustrated one of the most daring plots of the war. It is not probable that Gen. Grant took any par ticular notice of the adair, and it is not at all probable that he has ever realize J the valuable services of the old colored man. What interpretation the officers of the anny put upon the presence of the strange and hostile men at such a time and place, is not known, but if there were uny doubts as to their mission, this bit of history may serve to remove them. A. T. STEWART'S BODY. How the J'urlng ltol>ber>- waa KITectoti. Early on tho morning of October 7tb, just a month ago, thc assistant sexton of St. Mark's Church discovered that the Stewart lamil; vault had been tampered with. The stone's slab had been re moved from its position and the enrth disturbed several feet. As the slab v its not over thc opening of the vault tuc thieves did not get at tho body. The sexton reported the matter to Judge Hil ton, who ordered the seal to be placed a few feet from its true position in order to deceive any one attempting to steal the body. A watchman was also en gaged, and ho patroled thc graveyard every night until very recently. The discovery of the outrnge was made at 8 o'clock Wednesday morning. Tho rob bt 1? bad removed ono stone from the opening to thc vault, broken open three collins in which the body was enclosed and curried away the contents, it is sup posed, in a sack. The robbery has caused great excitement in the neighbor hood of thc graveyard. Thc robbers, who wero probably five or six in number, having entered the church-yard, proceeded to remove the eariii from thc opening to the vault. This was soon R??omp!libed by thc r.id of a shovel, which, with a dark lantern, th y left behind them. They then pried up one of the stones, thus making au opening large enough to permit the en trance of two men simultaneously. There were several coffins in the vault, but the robbers do not appear to have hesitated in choosing the right one. The outer casing of thc cedar was easily broken open, and thc second or leaden collin, was rippon open, apparently wah n large knife. There then remained the oaken coffin, which was also broken open. The body was then taken out r id placed in sumo sort of a sack, lifted toward the opening, where there were probably other bands to receive it, and carried to tho iron railing around the Church. The weight of ibo body was not very great, but it is still a question how it was passed over tho railing, as all thc gates were lock.??. The body was then proba bly pr. into a wagon and drivon quietly away. The o'mi says that among all thc theo ries relative to the crime, none is more curious than that which attributes -t to the agency of certain disappointed heirs or so-called heirs of Mr. Stewart. Those who hold to this theory believe that thc body was removed in order that a chemi cal analysis might bo mado to detect traces of poisoning. The news of the desecration of Mr. Stewart's grave was not conveyed to Mrs. Stewart until last evening, when Judge Hilton called and broke thc sad tidings to ber as gently ns possible She was overwhelmed with ?rricf, bul fully coincided with Judge ililton in taking a firm stand against re wards. She expressed a willingness to gn to any expens? to secure the arrc-t und conv iction of the perpetrators of thc outrag-r.-Neve Vori ries? Dispatch, ELECTION RESULTS IN THE SOUTH. A FollUcal Error MAI1?> lMl|irihle--Tlie cry cf i ut : 1111 ? i : 11 ?MU Kulte. WASHINGTON, November 10. The defeat of Mr. Yate? in tho First North Carolin? District and the election of his Republican competitor does not look like there was any intimidation practiced in North C oolina. It is very likely that the Republicans would have been"more pucccssl'ul in the South if they had made the leapt cuort to have it so. Hut from the very first the Republican Campaign Conni.ittee hero confined its work to the theatre of thc Northern and Western States. The amount of money that it sent into the Congressional Dis tricts of the South was so insignificant as not lo merit notice, and it is bel io vet! that during the whole campaign not one campaign speaker from the North up iienred on the stump iii any part of thc louth; except in Petersburg, Va., where tho Republican candidate was elected. A month ago the Chairman of the Re publican Committee of North Carolina carne here, went to tho rooms of the Re publican Congressional Campaign Com mittee, and besought the managers te send some good speakers to North Car olina, mentioning especially Mr. Blaine. All he could get was a promise that per haps Mr. Btovkett Matthews, of Mary land, would come. Il Mr. Matthe Wt went tho knowledge of the fact bas not yet penetrated to this locality. \\ hile tlie Republican Campaign Com mittec thus deliberately abandoned tin South to its opponents, the contest all over the North was waged with an carn eslncss and vigor not oflon surpassed ii Presidential elections. Senator Cork ling did what be did not even do in itu President'al contest-went ont of lt ii own State to make campaign speedie for his pa?"ty. Mr. Hlaiue spoke all ove the West and at various points in tin East. The most gifted orators of tin Republican party traversed State afte State, speaking from tho stump daily No one will say that there bas ever beul a more animated ora more intensely bit ter campaign in Massachusetts than tb one which bas just cloted.

Ami in th event there would have been just much logic in ascribing bis success Democratic intimidation as there is charging the result in South Candi and Louisiana -o intimidation, Wh necessity for intimidai ion when yo enemy surrenders without a contes "Hard money" and plenty ?if it b also much to do with the Republic success in several States of tho Nor' It was literally poured out like water Pennsylvania, Michigan, New York a Illinois, not to speak of Mas"acbusel But if the Republican tac'ics in tin S'aies bad been as they were in I South, they would to-day be ranged ?he Democratic instead of on the Repi li can side. It ia alleged that Republican meet ii were broken up i'i South Carolina n elsewhere dining tlie campaign j closed. But who was there to aildr Republican meetings? Outside of i Federal olL'ceholders the white Reptil cans in South Carolina can almost counted on your len fingers. Why < not Mr. Blaine, or Colonel Ingersoll, hundreds of other Republican speak who can be mentioned, go to South C olino and take part in the campaig They have as much right to speak Suuth Carolina aa in Massachusetts, a they and their friends know very tv that no Republican meei?ig at whi they were lo appear would be broken and no division of lime demanded. 'I Bl or ?CS of intimidation, of breaking of Republican meetings, &., come fri persons of r.o responsibility, but they i inado usc of all the same. Under thc circumstances the bimi which ia now going up from thc Radii papers over tho North of the Republic Congressmen who ought to have bc elected from the South is the sublim of coolness. It ia wonderful that tin are any Republican Congressmen fn the South at all. The Republicans uot elect Congressmen in the No without fighting for them, and desp alely at that, yet they expect to hi twent-five or thirty given 'hem in I South without so much ns l.Aiug a tm for them. An nmusing instance of miranee of thc facts which exist even so central a State as Maryland is c deuced by thc manner in which a proi neut jo.mial of another State beaded the morning after the election the i nouncement of thc election of .Mr. Uri It was as follows: "The negroes of Sixth D'strict of Marydand succeeded electing a repr?sent?t i ve." This was doubt considered a great feat and a table example where the colored peo bad managed to get to the polls aes| thc intimidation. Of course this m bring a smi'e to the lips of every citi of Maryland knowing thc very la body of intelligent and influential wi Republicans who ?ive in thc Sixth 1 Ir.ct and tho numerically insignific proportion of colored voters. It is asserted by prominent Repu cans that in thc next campaign thi will be managed very differently.; they intend to send their best Biieal to tho South, and manage their c paigns 'here just as they do in the No 'Pliis will be the proper thing to do, if they can convince the colored pei of the South that it is for their inte to net with the Republican party Democrats must ncquiesce.-Battit, Sun, PATRONIZED HY THE LADIES.

A terrible accident ?nd rt horrible irng edy occurred last Saturday night nt tiiC dopol in Augusta, being the killing of Beter Frohuiaii, who was crushed by be ing run over by tho outgoing train on tlie Tori Royal Railroad. Kroman was known us a desperate character, and the history of his crime ami continued pur suit are both interesting. On Saturday night lu> was CM mute for Beaufort, where ho was to be tried for one of bis offense*, and was brought from Rnglnnd by Sheriff Wilson, nf South Carolina, under thc extradition treaty, on thc charge of mur der. The crime for which froh man Wits ex tradited was thc murder in June Inst, itt Beaufort, S. C., of P. W. Donkan, who I was his partner in a Hat boat. A few days before tho murder, Prob mau and j Dunkau quarreled over a roulette table on the boat, and Krohinan beat Duukan j severely. Duukitii badu warrant issued against Frohnloh, aiid accompanied the officer, who, on tho 20th of June, trent to execute it. When the ofllccr attempt ed to serve the process Froh mau attack ed bim with n belaying pin and knocked him down and beat bim. Duuknn Foisted Krohmun, and they struggled sonic lime, but Krohinan, after beating Donkan un til he was insensible, threw bim over board. Dunknu's body was not recovered for some time. Prohninn lied to New Orleans and shipped on tho Bailing ve.^ sel Croimlunkiu, bound for London, lang land. Sherill' Wilson arrived at New Orleans just after tho vessel cleared ?md took the next steamer for Hu rope. When the Cronidunkin dropped anchor in thc Thames nt Gravesend, Wilson boarded her. Almost thc first person be saw was Krohinan, who, suspecting thc Sheriff's errand, jumped hilo the river, but was caught by some boatmen und was taken to the Bow street station and held under the extradition treaty. While in prison awaiting the com ldc? lion of the proceedings ho succeeded in j getting out of his cell, and Was found on the roof ol' the prison preparing to lower I himself into thc street. When the case was complete Thoriithwnitc, of Scotland ? Yard, took Krohinan to Liverpool nnd delivered him to Sherill' Wilson on the deck of the Nevada. In view of Kroll man's desperate character he was double ironed and confined in a cabin during the trip. The Sheriir reached Augusta Saturday night at M5 o'clock willi bia prisoner, on the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, und boarded the Kort Boyal train, which leaves nt 10 o'clock. Col. Owens informs us thal the truin hud just passed out thc depot when, it stopping, lie inquired thc cause, and the conductor replied that a man had been killed, nnd, on examining, Froh man waa found be tween the driving wheels of the engine cut in two nt tlie waist and horribly crushed, and life, extinct, lie bad been run over by the baggage car nnd tender, ?ind was found between the engine wheels, the train having backed oui the depot. It seems thal the poisoner had made an other desperate, and not only hopeless, but fatal attempt to ?scape again that law which hud followed him so closely and long. Kiding in the smoking cur, the Sherill was standing up putting on bis overcoat, when the prisoner rushed for the door. He was followed so closely thnt, reach ing tho platform and endeavoring to escape tiie grasp of the olliccr, ho fell between the cms, and, rendered more helpless by the manacles on in's arms, was crushed to death. The sl?ht was sickening and the manlier of his death horrible, und in the clenr moonlight, though accidentally killed, his mangled remains were nu evidence that retribu tion in one way or other visits all offend ers against the law. All inquest was held over his body nod bis remains properly interred, nnd Buch is the ending of a ca reer in crime and its varied incidents. A u y it* fa Evening uYeirs.

A MORMON STORY. History of tb? MU?-*, murinny CHAO at Huit JLttko City. 8A1.T LAKE CITY, UTAH, Oct. 29. Thc all-absorbing excitement is the 1 trial of John Horne Miles for bigamy, noted in my correspondence of yesterday. ' and still being prosecuted before United ? ?tates Commissioner Sprugue. } Thinking the many readers of the . Inter-Ocean might desire u truthful and full account of the case. I called upon I .Miss Owens at tho residence of U. 6. . Marshal Shnughnessey, In company with ; District Attorney Van 7A\c, and was very courteously received. I was particular to write down all that was said, with Miss Owens' permission, ! which was very modestly told, an?! it is briefly as follows : Her full namo is Caroline Teresa Horne Mailo Owens. lier father's name was Mailo, her moth er'* name was Horne, and Owens was the namo of an uncle who adopted her on the death of ber father and mother, who died when she wns almost an infant. Miss Owens was born in the city of London, June A, 1855, and is, therefore, twenty-three years of age. She is very prepossessing in appearance; has large i dark eyes, dark bair, a lino figure, atid uses good English. She waa neatly and stylishly dressed ; was at school several years in Holland, and, on tho death of "ber uncle who adopted ber, abc becamo a governess where she had been a pupil. Miles is thirteen months ber senior. They were children together, nnd lovera front their earliest years. In 1870 Miles I entered tho merchants' marine Rcrvice i fur three years, and went to sea in the ship England. They were engaged, and corresponded regularly till 1873, when the ship was reported lost in Torres .Straits with every soul on board. Sbo went lo Lloyds and found tho reporta were true, and she, of course, gave him up as dead. Thc truth, however, waa that be left thc abip a month or so before, in Australia, and was then converted and made a Mormon, and soon after caine to Utah. In 187(3, to ber nurprise, bo ap peared to ber one day at a f riend's house where she was visiting, like one risen from thc dead. He waa seedy and dirty, and had every appearance of a disreputable tramp. F - announced himself ns a Mormon Elder. During all thia timo she supposed bim d?*ad, she bad several good chances of marriage, but abo felt abc could never love any other man us she bad loved him, and declined them all. He commenced immediately to preach M. rmonism, and at last converted ber, at tho expense of sacrificing relatives and friends. Thc first eighteen months of his mis sion in England he saw little cf her, but the last six months hu waa with ber al most all thc time. Her aunt and she insisted upon their being married in England before leaving, but lie said bu was under a solemn vow not to marry while on bis mission, but would do so immediately oil arriving in Ulah. Her aunt resisted this, and Miss Owens yielded and went with bim, with almost curses, from her only near relative. They started from London with the Mormon emigration, September 14 Inst, and sailed on the steamer Wyoming for New York. Tho Captain, two Miases I Williams, daughters of thc owner, and a j young Mr. Onion were very kind to her, and did all they could to prevent her coming to Utah with bun. He was madly jealous of these attentions, and one time tbicatened to throw her over board, and to jump over himself. Before leaving New Y'ork he told her there were two girls in St. Ocorgo named Emily and J' lia Spencer sisters. Tho elder, Emily, hud got her . Uber to pro pose ber to bim, and when he went to ask ber to be bia wife she told him her sister Julia loved bim too. Ho then asked them both and they accepted, but, said he, I have loved you BO long and so much that I would give up fi fly "of them for you. You are moro to mn than any woman ni ?MC >vur!?. They nrrived here October 4, and ?ho went to Angus Cannon'a bouse, and im mediately thereafter bo becamo inde pendent, and treated ber with indiffer ence, and on thc next day informed her be was going to marry these two Spen cer girls also, nod that bc was going to bring them up and int i ndure them to bor. She told him she would not submit to it ; that she would go to John Taylor; that bo was a just and good man, and that he would not permit il, and t' at she would havo it settled. They finally all four went to President Taylor's office, and she pleaded with Taylor long and earnestly; told bim of their having loved each oth er uo long, their long engagement, tho wrong be bad done, tho sacrifices BIIO bad made for bim of relative.- and friends, but bc ooolly told ber it was ibe order in those tbinga that tho oldest must be first, and that Emily must bj first, abe second, and Julia third. Then she pleaded with Miles, but be told ber while be loved her and did not love tho others, that he could not disobey counsel or change the regular order ol things, but thai in reality she would bc bis first wife, and so thia poor, friendless girl, loving, trusting, and de ceived, faraway from friends and among strangers, yielded, nnd was married ac cording to tho r'ttw. of tho Mormon Church, October 24. She aaid abo re membered tho oaths that she took in thc consummation of this ordinanco, but she could never reveal them. She was afraid find would pCQ?sh her if .he did, after having taken them, but fdio said tho last oath Bbc took, through the veil, waa perfectly awful. Sbo went into the En dowment House at 9o'clock in the morn ing, nnd did not get through till 3.30 in the afternoon. That evening Mr. Can non gave ber a wedding reception. She had warned Miles not to bring Emily Spencer there, at it was her re ception, and she told bim if be did there would bo trouble. The company, comprising about twenty, had arrived, ar.d ?be carno down .'rom ber room upstairs, and entered tho parlor to find Emily Spencer Boated on tho music Btool in. tho center of the room. She went up to her and said : "Won't you please get off that stool ? I want to ?day." Emily simply squinted at her, and said nothing; bul Miles carno across tho room, and said : "Emily I don't you move; you aro ruy wife; don't you mind that woman." Miss Owona j thou alapped ber face, and tho row com menced. M.lea got between thora, and Cannon got behind Misa Oweus and held ber banda, nnd told her to leave his houBo. Sho ran into tho street, whore sbo met Bomo apostles, who wore going to take her homo, when Miles and Can non carno, and dragged her into tho house. They then tried to calm her, and finally got her to consent io play sort* quadrilles. Aa sho sat nt tho piano waiting for them to form er?r ?i?. floor, she heard Miles ask Emily todanco with him. Sho Raid she would :M?t play for that woman lo dance, and so left tho piano and ran up Hi her room. This was about 10 o'clock.

SITTING BULL SPEAKS. Tho Itcd-IfanoVrt Warrior Doesn't I.Ike the Attraction or Canada. Po PI, AI HIVER, M. T., Oct. 2G. Having just returned from n vist to Wood Mouutnina, Northwest Province, u post of the Canadian mounted police, where I saw and conversed at length with Sitting Pull, Spotted Eagle, Black Bult, White Guts, W hite Eagle, The Gaul and several others of tho leading spirits of the Tcton camp, which ia at present on Frenchmen's Creek, a tributary of Milk River, the Indian name of which ?3 We Saw-Wackepold, or Whito Uiver, so called from the white (or ripe) clay which is found on its bauka, I send you the result. Sitting Bull I found at first quito reti cent; but under tlu> influence of a cup of codec with sugar cd libitum and the soothing influence of a smoke, ho at last opened out. Ho said that the White Mother was good, and that tho Long Lance (Major Walsh) was a good man, and that tho half breeds wero good, but tbnt this was not such a good country as the Yc'lowatone and Black Hills, and that often be thought of old time.-. What lie wanted was for all tho soldiers and agents to go away, and ho would go back to his old home. All he wanted waa traders. They were good ; agents and soldiers were "wacktiBbncy"-a word hard to translate, bul which means par ticularly bad in a general sense. Black Bull spoke to me privately, and told me be did not like to stay in Canada, and would come back to tho agencies at tho ural chance, but that tho rest pre vented him. I found thia to bc thc- sen timent of a great many, but that the In dian soldiers would not allow them to como back. It looks as if thc Indiana would bavo a hard timo thia.winter. Thc b?llalo aro all traveling south of thc Missouri, and without buffalo starvation must ensue. Very erroneous ideas aa to tho traffic of ammunition (fixed) aeem to prevail generally among whiles ot? this side of thc line. The sale ia by no means indis criminate; no ammunition ia sold with out a permit from the commanding officer of the Mounted Police. Of course he is best ublo to decido the requirements of the Indians, and of course without am munition they cannot kill buffalo, and while there I saw several agency Indians refused the permit to trade." Major Walsh refusing them on the around ?hat they were not residents. I often see reports of the liability of Sitting Bull to menace tho whites on this aide of the line. Such is not the cr.se, and the scaro that periodically comes in the neighborhood of Benton arises from thc fertile imagination of some would-be hero. Sitting Bull and all tho chiefs that I talked with (and this is tho opinion of thc police.who have daily intercourse .vith them) said that thc idea of war with the United States ia not at all thought nf by the Indiana, who are smart enough to realize that they would lose the present position With ti:r.

Tho Cheyennes he referred to were those who surrendered to General Miles last year, and if they do it will be bad for tho white settlers.- Cbr.
