Wednesday Morning, Sept. 18.1868.
The New York Tribune abuses the
Doiiiuoxatic papers, because they do
not toll the truth about the public
debt. But who can tell the truth
about it? Who'known what ?Lug' truth
is? How is anybody to discover tho
actual state of tho finances? A Re?
publican commissioner informs us
that during last year, a surplus of
837,000,000 accumulated in tho Troa
Bury, whilo his actual figures prove
that the debt increased $12,000,000.
The Tribune- makes no effort to ex?
plain the discrepancy ; it gives it up
at once, and retires into still more
muddled water. The Post attributes
the difficulty to interest on notes,
whioh it alleges was omitted; but it
turns out that this interest was not
omitted-so the Post withdraws in
disguet. A Republican orator says
that the debt has diminished eight
hundred millions since the war; the
Tribune only claims that it has been
reduced about two hundred millions,
while other Republican journals fix
upon sums to suit themselves. It
certainly, then, is not surprising that
Democrats should become confused
about the real a ta to of tho debt, when
its very authors ai e no more clear
about its condition. Our "great na?
tional blessing," the New York Citizen
asserts, is getting to be a mixed bless?
ing, and Democrats might surely be
forgiven, if they cannot appreciate
all its beautiful proportions.

The Democratic demonstration in
Spartanburg, on the 11th, was a
monster afiair-over 4,000 persons
were present. A procession was
formed, headed by tho Greenville
brass band, and proceeded, to the
barbecue grounds, near the Presby?
terian Church. The meeting was
presided over by Professor Blake.
A fervent prayer was offered by
Rev. Whitefoord Smith, after which
addresses wore delivered by Messrs.
A. P.- Aldrich, Arm is tend Bnrt, G.
C. McClure and Colonels Colaran,
Simkins und McMaster. In the
evening, there waa a torch-light pro?
cession, fire-works and addresses by
ex-Gorernor Bonham and Colonel
Baxter.
An immense concourse of peoplo
assembled at Saratoga, New York, on
Thursday last, to hear the annual
address before the Saratoga County
Agricultural Fair, which was deliver?
ed by Governor Horatio Seymour, in
compliance with his engagement to
do so boforo receiving tho Democra?
tic nomination for Presidont. In the
address nothing whatever was said
relating to politics, but it was an able
and scholarly production, well worthy
its nobla author. The village of
Saratoga was crowded to its utmost
capacity by the largo concourse of
farmers and their families from the
surrounding country. '
A correspondent of the New York
Herald, who has had a familiar con?
versation with General and Mrs.
Grant, at their home in Galena, Bays
that Mrs. Grant is fully qualified, as
a lady, wife and mother, for the po?
sition of mistress at the White
House, and its affairs, under her
superintendence, wiU be ordered in
a way to gratify the most scrupulous
lover of what is fit and appropriate
for tho plaoo. The General is anxi?
ous to win, and has no doubt of his
success.
GOVERNOR SEYMOUR'S SPEECH-AN
AMUSING BLUNDER.- The Boston Post
says Gov. Seymour, in his address at
Saratoga, on Thursday, spoke of "the
importance of removing the worm
from the soil." What he did speak
of was "the importance of renovating
worn out soil."
The Coming October EltcOon*.
The New York Herald, in one of its
late "on-th?-fence" articles, speaks
as followa of, tho coming elections:
It is generally conceded, that the
coming October elections in Pontt
sylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Iowa
will virtually determine tho result oz
thePresidential election. Tho hope
of the Democratio party is in a move?
ment of the people of tho Western
and Middle States for a change in
the policy of the Government, exten
I sive enough to sweep away, all past
Republican majorities, and turn the
great States over to the Democrats
by overwhelming votes. Such a
thing as ? close contest is improba
? ble, and, hence, it is clear that, if
this tremendous revolution is to
come at all, it must show itself in
the State elections we have named.
Tn, view of these facts, a glance at
the results in 1862, when a similar
reaction to that now predicted set in
against tho Republican party, on
account of their mismanagement of
the war and alleged official extrava?
gance and corruption, will be of
interest, at this time.
Wo find, then, that Vermont,
which led off in the election of 1862,
gave 26,000 Republican majority,
being an increase over its majority
for Lincoln in 1860. Maine followed,
with 13,000 cr 14,000 Republican
majority. But, when the Octobor
elections came, Pennsylvania, which
had given Lincoln 60,000 majority
two years before, turned over to the
Democracy by nearly 4,000 majority;
Ohio changed its 20,000 for Lincoln
into 6,000 for tho Democratic ticket;
and Indiana, which had givon Lin?
coln 24,000 over Douglas, elected
Democratic officors by 10,000 major?
ity. This was tho beginning of the
revolution, and it was followed by
similar results in other great States,
so that, had a President been elected
in 1862, the Democrats would have
been successful.
In that election, Missouri was car?
ried by the emancipationists, and
Delaware, although electing a Re?
pubhoan Governor, cast a Congres?
sional majority for the Demoorats.
It will be seen that neither Vermont
nor Maine afforded any indication of
the great change about to take place
in the political sentiment of the
country, but that tho revolution com?
menced with the October elections.
It will be tho same, this year. Ver?
mont amounts to nothing. Maine
is important, only in so far as the
Democrats have made a hot contest
there, and may bo discouraged by a
bad defeat. Bat, on the 13th oi
October, when the voices of the men
of iron-the Hoosiers and the Buck?
eyes-make themselves heard, we
shall know whether the radicals are
to be hurled from power, or whether
the stupidity and stubbornness ol
tho Democratic managers are to
check the revolution foreshadowed
last fall, and occasion the re-enaction
of the election of 1864.

Mn. EDITOR: I was struck with n
fable, which I read the other day in
a French book. I send you a free
translations of it, wondering if youi
readers will apply it as I did :
A vessel, laden with a great many
monkeys, had just arrived in a port.
The cargo promised a ready sale, foi
monkey-tricks are amusing to old and
young. The owners of the rare im?
portation hud gone to town to an?
nounce the arrival of these pets, and
the sailors had likewise gouo ashore
after their tedious vogage, so thal
none but tho monkeys wero left on
board. Monkeys aro always up tc
tricks, and so they were then. An old
baboon collected his brethren and
addressed them in the following
manner:
"Gentlemen, I havo formerly lived
among men, and know what treat
ment we have to expect from them
they will tio us around the body, im?
pose upon us many and cruel hard
ships; if you lovo liberty as much O?
I do, 'yon will not* fail to embrace ai
opportunity which is offered us no^
to break the inevitable chains o:
slavery, by taking hold of tho shiji
and sail back to our native lands
Having watched the sailors frequent
ly, I om fully conversant with tho ar
of directing a vessel's courso; I wil
be your pilot, and you shall be tin
sailors-are you agreed ?" Theil
united response was a loud clattering
for liberty, liberty!
Thoy went immediately to work
set sail, and wind and weather favor
ed for a season. Tho watchful pilo
informed his crow that he saw i
storm approaching; but bade then
not to feel uneasy, as ho would safeh
guide them. Ho had spoken truly
as regarda the storm, for tts fur
broke looso upon the monkey crew
waves roared and tossed the vessel
so that io spite of tho pilot's assur
anoes, they became seriously alarm
od-and who would not, under simila
circumstances? At last tho vesso
was dashed against a rock, and shi]
and crow were sunk to the bottom o
the sea.

if we undertake things above ou

THE LlBOXSLATURB^SSnW
PROCEEDINGS OP SXXXx-bitUOND DAY,'
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
COLUMBIA, September 15.-A peti?
tion from the City Council of Charles?
ton,, praying a repeal of the law pas?
sed in;1838, prohibiting the excava*
tion of. cellars in any new building,
was referred to the Committee on
Privileges, with instructions to report
to-morrow.
The consideration of the following
f)apers was postponed until the r?gn?
er session:
A bill to make provision for the
poor in the several Counties of this
State.
A bill to regulate the sale of spirit?
uous liquors by apothecaries.
The petition of the Commissioners
of the Poor of Abbeville County,
praying au appropriation of $1,500
to keep up the poor house in that
County.
The Senate bill to prevent discri?
mination between persons, on ac?
count of race, color or previous
condition, carno up for considera?
tion, in connection with the House
bill on the same subject, which had
been returned from the Senate, at
the request of the House.
A violent discussion ensued, in
tho progress of which "Whipper,
Elliott, Bozeman and other negroes,
all imported African carpet-baggers,
took extremo ground in support of
what they called tho black man's
rights-meaning, thereby, the right
of a nigger to occupy the same pew
in church, sleep in the same room,
and eat at the same table in a hotel,
ride in the same car, ko., with a
white man. Under the pressure of
tho party whip, in the hands of
such incendiaries, all the negro
members, with the exception of
Valentine, of Abbeville, voted for
the original House bill, which
meant exactly what Whipper and
his confreres" contended for, viz:
absolute social equality.
In this thev were sustained by such
white office beggars as the fat boy
Jenks, and the miscegenationist as
Rev. jackson; but the more moderate
white radicals, nsFerriter, Hyde and
Stoeber, repudiated the infamous doc?
trine. It is by no means likely that
the Senate will concur in this action
of the House, as there is conservatism
enough oven in that hybrid assem?
blage to prevent the passage of the
bill.
The bill to authorize the sale of the
Columbia Canal was passed, tho Go?
vernor, Bobert N. Lewis and C. M.
Wilder being named as the commis?
sioners to perpetrate the transaction.
SENATE.
The petition of the City Council of
Charleston, alluded to in the pro?
ceedings of the House, was read and
referred to the Judiciary Committee.
The following bills were each read
a third time, and sent to the House
for concurrence:
A bill to provide for the formation
and proceeding of the College of
Electors.
A bill to regulate attachments.
A bill to extend the time in which
County officers may qualify. This
bill, as finally passed, allows all of?
ficers until tho first January, within
which to qualify.
The Act to authorize additional aid
to the Blue Ridge Railroad, was re?
ported ready for ratification.

FIVE CHILDREN BURNED TO DEATH.
On the night of the 31st ultimo, the
dwelling house of Robert Ravill, in
the township of Pierson, Montcalm
County, was burnt to the ground,
with its contents and five children,
aged from four to fourteen years.
The fire occurred about mid-night,
and was occasioned . by putting ashes
in tho wood-box.
At the time of the fire, Mr. Raviil
was absent from home, and tho house
was occnpied by his wife, a man and
his wife, and the seven children of
Mr. Ravill. The mother barely es?
caped with her infant, and the eldest
boy jumped from the chamber win?
dow.
The charred remains of tho children
wore taken from the smoking ember.!
on the following morning and in?
terred. The father, who is a miller
by trade, was absent at the mill at
the time, and his grief on learning
the terrible death of his children was
most agonizing. The mother has
lo3t her reason in consequence of tho
dreadful event. The remains were
so burned, that they could not be
recognized except by the size.

don't they try peppermint lozenges?'
inquires Nix, compassionately; 'it
might help the poor things.' "

NICEEHSON'S HOTEL. -A paragraph
