It' has been a very spirited, ear- j nfest and bitter canvass, bat perhaps not more bo than many of its predecessors. The Liberal movement has manifested a degree of vitality and progressive power sufficient, at least, to strike terror to the hearts of the opposition. What the final result may bo, on Tuesday, we can? not tell, and will not attempt confidently to predict. Wo entertain a hope based, we think, on very reasonable grounds, that Mr. Greeley will bo elected. It de? pends entirely, in onr judgment, upon the firmness and morale of the conserva? tive forces which have combined to push forward tho Liberal movement. The heavy majority for Hartranft in Penn? sylvania must prove discouraging, de? spite the fact no plainly manifested that innumerable frauds were perpetrated. That Philadelphia, with bat little more than two-thirds tho inhabitants of New York city, should register nearly a fourth more voters, is proof enough of the illicit means by which Hartrauft's majority waB stolen. It is undeniable, however, that the defeat of Buckalew, npon whose election the friends of the Liberal movement oounted bo surely, has caused wide-spread depression and donbt through their ranks. If they have the intelligence properly to appro oiate the Bitnation?to bso tho advan? tages whioh they have, and bravely withstand a temporary and trifling de feat?the ohanoes are that the day will still be onrs. Pennsylvania is not in the least degree essential to the success of the Liberal oaase. It is a strong point to be gained, unquestionably. Its loss would have utterly disoomfited the Ad? ministration forceH, bat it in not of the | same importance to Greeley. The re? pulse there is discouraging, bat the po? sition itself shoald not practically affect the integrity of the Liberal linos. If we make a bold and manly fight, and bring out the fall Deoionralin vote, we are sure to curry Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Iadiaua, Missouri and California, which are amply sufficient and more to place Mr. Greeloy in the Presidential chair. If it were not for the corrupt use of tho money, the military and the patron age of the Government by Grant, to a de? gree hitherto undreamed-of iu the his? tory of the ooantry, he woald not stand a ghost of a chance. Bat evea should Mr. Greeley be defeated, the Liberal party will not be disbanded, nor its principles surrendered. A party with suoh men as Greeley, Trumball, Su in? ner, Wells, Schurz and the other distin? guished Liberal Republicans associated with them, tho flowers of tho old Repub? lican party, backed by all tho able and patriotio Democrats iu the laud, is not an ephemeral pr. wer. It has a mission to perform, too, far nobler, far more pa? triotic, than any other party which has yet lived, and that is the reconciliation of tho Uuion, ooupled with the graud old Democratic doctrine of decentraliza? tion, which must commend it fiually to the confidence and tho support of u largo majority of tho American people. Grant is ruuniug now upon tbo strength of his personal popularity, tho blind veneration with which many of the Northern people regard him becauso of his military career, and the irradicablo sectional animosity which tho Yuukeo proper still entertains towards tho South. The Grantitea have no political princi? ples to uphold, no issues upon which to go before tho country, except Graut. Iu him rests all their doctrines, and for his sake alono they oxpoot popular sup? port. When Grant's political career is ended?whioh, iu tho naturo of things, cannot possibly last longer than four years moro?his party must bo disband? ed, for thoro will be nothing to hold it together. Then, even should it fail in carrying a majority of tho eleotoral voto on Tuesday, the Liberal party is bound to rule the country, until in timo it shall have fulfilled its mission, and, liko tho Radical party of to-day, grown corrupt throngh the long enjoyment of power.

Editok: We are frequently de? terred from pursuing that which is in keeping with right in the abstract, by the inferenoe of tho public that some personal end is aimed at, where the soreness of disappointment deprives ns of the faculty of discrimination. Such a sentiment is not the power that urges us to raise our voicea with indignant protests against tho high-handed course of the Secretary of tho State Agricul? tural Association with roforenoo to tho renting of tho booths iu the Fair Grounds. We would not sully the co? lumns of your valuable paper, did not a higher inspiration than that engendered by personal loss urge us to cry aloud with Bolemn misgivings at the unauthor? ized course of tho Secretary, who, with? out consultation with the members of the Executive Committee, in violation of the rules governing erery corporate body, especially one in which all of the citizens have an interest; encourages a monopoly, under oiroumBtanoes aggra? vating in the extreme, to those possessed of booths in the grounds ereoted last year, and detrimental in every particular to the true interests of tho institution, inasmuch as it shows a spirit which men of Mr. Seoretary Aiken's prominence wore too prono to arrogate to themselves beforo the war?the spirit of contempt for a poor man's privileges and au utter disregard of a freeman's rights. We aro not domocrntio enough yet. nor will we ever be until certain individuals aro tnught to respect the rights of the com? munity among whom they stalk, tho do generate skeletons of a broken-down aristocracy and of purse-proud monopo? lizers. Your leudors, Mr. Editor, aro not awaro that the Secretary of tho so? ciety above designated has sold the ex? clusive privilege of erecting liquor booths in the Fuir Grounds, during the coming fair, to au individual, for tho insignifi? cant sum of $200; and so anxiously has this mouopoly been watched, that certain I parties were denied tho privilege of [ erecting a booth, on the race^oourso, bo j cause "it was too near the track," when it is wall known that one of tho monopo? lizers was erecting a bar-room immedi? ately under the judge's stand, just on tho boundary Hue of the course. What a atato of things, when men to tho man? ner born should hustle away from their property brotherCaroliniansl And why? because they are poor menl All of our poor friends in this vicinity aro urged, if they wish to gain premi? ums, to attach high-sounding titles to thoir cards of exhibition. An anecdote, apropos: One of our most deserving fellow-citizens, whoso calling, though honest, was not in keeping with tho dig? nity of certain high fouotionarios, sent a blooded horse to the fair. It was, be? yond all cavil, tho most superb animal on the grounds. It's owner's avocation, and bis plebiau name, lost tho prize. The following year he again entered the animal, prefixing to his own name the title of "Colonel." Tho horse took tho first premium. Ouo question, and wo loavo the matter with the public. Would it not bo con? sulting tho interests of the people who havo the matter at heart, if the citizens generally were not excluded from bid? ding on tho leasing of tho Fair Grounds, wbioh now are lot for a petty sum, utter? ly shameful iu tho gentlemen having this arrangement uudor their control? MANY CITIZENS. And, now, M. Thiers turns bis steps to the old roud whioh has so often lod re? publicanism baok to monarchy. There \a uninnHu'njr Rf?

Thiers en? joys, would have beon proof ngainBt tho false stop which, when taken, must more or loss fatally impugn a character and motives that, until now, have shone with undimmcd brilliancy. It is sad to wit? ness such evidences of human weakness iu high places. It robs ns of faith nnd hope in tho future; it begets doubts nud suspicions, pregnant dth misfortuuo nud disaster, just such ns will inevitably dog M. Thiers' foot-steps. The veil botweou a lifo presidency nnd a monarchy is a miserably thin one, which ouo blow from the Bword can rend to shreds.

Another Holocaust at Ska.?-Tho burning of the Bicnvillo, which has been chronicled so lately, has now its sistoi horror iu tho news which comes to us from Koy West of tho destruction by firo of tho Atlantic Mail Company's steamer Missouri off Abaco, Bahamas, in a gale of wind. Wo can calculate the extout of tho disaster by tho appalling number of lives sacrificed and tho amount of valuable property destroyed. Out of eighty-eight souls, but twelve nro roportod saved, leaving a list of suvouty six to be added to tho dismal catalogue of victims of tho flames or tho waves which has had such plentiful additions of lato. This list includes all the of? ficers. Tho Missouri sailed from Now York on tho 17th Ootober. The firo was discovered in tho pantry at 9 A. M.?an hour when ovorybody on board tho doomod steamer was astir. Tue Coming Ox.?When, iu the first days of the horse diseaso, it was pro posed that oxen should be brought into the city to supply the place of the dead , and dying horses, no one, probably, imagined that! the proposal would be seriously adopted. Nevertheless, bo great has been the interruption of bnsi* ness in consequeuco of the dearth of horses, that oxen have already made their appearance, chiefly in connection with market wagons, while it is under? stood tbat largo numbers of draymen have sunt into the oouutry iu search of teams of oxen, wherewith to resume their interrupted occupation. It is thuB possible that, should the borse disease prevail for uny length of time, tho ox would become as familiar a feature of our streets as the horse hits been; and it in by no means certain that lid would not win as high a place in our respect and affection. The ox is undoubtedly a slow and me? thodical beast. He lucks tho fiery en? ergy of the horse, aud is ill-adapted to meet the views of the cabman or hearse driver of racing proclivities. Tho omni? bus driver who wields tho ox-goad in? stead of the horse-whip would find it difficult to iustigate his team to tho play? ful joke of carrying away the wheels of obnoxious carriages; aud tho wild butohor boy could not amuso himself with driving his two-wheeled ox-cart over the toes of neur-Biglited old gontle1 men. Tho ox being, moreover, a prosai? cally sure-footed beaBt, would fail to gratify that numerous part of the aom j muuity whoso apparent occupation it is to wutch tho struggles of horses who j have f?llen on tho Broadway pavement. Certainly tho ox would bo a failure if be wero expected to lend his aid to fast driving, or tu any other recognized form of popular amusement. He has, how? ever, certain well-understood virtues which might more than compensate for the 8hort-oomiugs just imputed to him. For example, he is the most placid und peaceful of boasts. Not even tho ma? lignant ingenuity of the smull boy has yet devised a plan to irritate him iuto running away. Broadway might be orowded with tho frequent ox, but tho spectacle of a run away team, now an every day sight, would uever bo offered. The thoughtful ox, when tethered at the curb-stone, aud wrapt in meditation upon the meadows of his rural youth, might sometimes abstractedly lunch upon the brilliant skirt of a passing lady, or, dreamily tossing his huge head, hint his presence with unintentional horn to the lounging policeman; but in neither case would his conduct doservo imliguaut censuro. His work would undoubtadly bo porformod with the utmost slowness and deliberation, but it would never be shirked under the weak pretonso of "staggers," us is tho reprehensible habit of tho vicious horse, while his very slow? ness would reaommend him to those ex? press companies whose dolight it is to delay as long as possible- the delivery of truuks entrusted to their care, it is possible, too, that his habitual delibera? tion and persistent practice of way-sido meditation might exert a wholesome in? fluence upon our over-worked business men, and lead them, by tho force of ex? ample, into oasier aud healthier habits of life. The ox has undoubtedly been eadly unappreciated by our citizens, and inasmuch as to know bim is to respect him, and to rccoguizo his solid virtues may very possibly prove tho first 6tep to their imitation, it will perhaps bo a sub? stantial gain to tho metropolis should tho ox take up bis permanent residence among us.?jYete York Times. The bayonet law is not dead, bat sleepeth. Nothwithstanding tho rofusal of CoDgruss to ooutiuuo the President in tho possession of nil liia coveted powers, ( ten. Grant is taking measures to show his independenco of legislative control, and his dotermination to secure a re? election, legally or illegally. With this eud in view, he has sent troops, during the past few days, to certain portions of Georgia, Louisiana and Alabama, to overawe and intimidate the Conservative voters of those States. The alleged ex? cuse for this unparalleled act is the pre? tence that disturbances are threatened in those regions, at the coming Presiden? tial election. Tho realreasou, of course, is that there is a prospect of an immense Democratic majority in Alabama nud Louisiana, us well as Georgia, and the Presideut wishes to overcome Ibis ma? jority, by tho only menus within his power. Tho result of the Georgia elec? tion showed plainly the overwhelming Liberal scutimeut which prevails throughout tho South, aud which, if permitted fair expression, would be pro? nounced iu favor of Greeley and Brown with entire unanimity. Tho importance of stifling this soutiaient has very natu? rally suggested itself to our peuoeablo President, aud his first recourse is, as usual, to troops aud bayonets. It makes no difference to him what the law is or is not. Georgia throatons to "disturb" bis Presidential permanency, aud is, consequently, invaded by a posse of sol? diers. Alabama and Louisiana, for simi? lar offences, Buffers similar pains aud pe? nalties. Let tho remaining Southern States bo wiso in timo.?Boston Post. A Coiti'se Gets Oot ov the Coffin AND ?PEAIiS TO THE WaTOIIEIIS.?A few days since, a young lady of Urbaua, Ohio, who had becu ill n short timo. died, and tho body was propared by sor? rowing friends and attendants for inter? ment, and placod in tho cofliu. Tho night before tho day of tho fuucral, a number of youug lady watchers wero seated in a room adjoining tbat in which tho cofliu had been placed, wbon, great? ly to their consternation, tho figure of tho dead gill appeared before them and spoko faintly. When tho horrified nt tomlaats bad soinowhat oveicome their fright, seeing that the supposed corpso was realiy a thing of Jit'o. thoy took measures to care for (heir fiijml i<o sturt lingly restored to them almost ''roi.i tho very grave, and sho roooivc? p.-oper at? tention, nud is now likely to re over. 3EI* o o et 1 X -t era 0 .

I Ghkat Sewing Machine Depot?An Obnament to Augusta and am Ho son to the Agents.?The Augusta Clironicle and Sentinel says: In few departments of the trade of this oity has the progress of t'ovJop mont and expansion been more striking than iu the ewing machine business. Particularly couspiuuous iu bringing this branch of trade to its prosent magnitude have boeu the agents of the Wheeler & Wilson Sowing Machine Company, the pioneers in tho introduction of the in* stullmeut plan here, through which end tho universally conceded merits of their popular family machine, thousands of these machines have been sold in the oity and the contiguous agricultural dis? tricts, for the country housewife bos not been slow to understand and appreciate the groat saving of labor and improved needle-work secured by the possession of one of these maohiues. At the beginning of the present busi? ness season, Messrs. Pursley & Trump, I the energetic and ever courteous agents of the Wheeler & Wilson Company in Augusta, Unding that their large and constantly increasing trade demanded increased store-room, alike for the ac? commodation of the constant stream of visitors pouring into their sales-rooms, and to enable them to keep on hand a supply of machines adequate to the iargeiy increased demands for the excel? lent family machine which they repre? sented, changed their quarters from 322 to 119 Broad street, taking one of those capacious stores recently fitted up in the "Old City Hotel" building: In this chango, they have secured one of the largest store-rooms to bo found anywhere in the city, its extreme length being 200 feet by 35 feet wide, in fit? ting up their new establishment, these gentlemen have been guided by a highly cultivated taute and a liberality of ex? penditure for the reception end enter? tainment of their visitors worthy of spe oial mentiou. Their extraordinarily capacious sales-room has been laid with a magnificent carpet throughout, at a cost of more than $500, while all the ap? pointments of furniture and fixtures have been made with the single purpose of providing tho most elegant and attract? ive Bewtng machine depot in the city. That they have achieved this distinction and fitted up an establishment which is an ornament to the city and worthy of tho visits and admiration of citizens and strangers, none will deny who will avail themselves of the opportunity to see for themselves. In addition to their very elegant and attractive sales-room, they also have a largo adjusting nnd store? room, from which all orders are prompt? ly filled for oity and country, and which teems with bustle and activity in adjust? ing, fitting up and shipping machines to all accessible points in South Caro? lina and Georgia. Wo commend a visit to this establishment as among the lead? ing attractions of the city.

Pernicious Pcroativks.?Tho bril? liant idea of half a century ago that the weak and ailing could bo bled, blistered and salivated into a condition of health and vigor is happily exploded; but vio? lent and prolonged purgation is still, to souio extent, in vogue. Wo have im? postors who are daring enough to oiler to the world, as tonics and restoratives, the most destructive cathartics, unmodi? fied by a single stimulating, soothing or restorative element. Compare the ope? ration of ono of these terrible nostrums with that of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, in which ere oombiued tho three great curative elements?a tonic, an alterative and an aporient. Tho former completely paralyzes the vital forces, so that nature can mako no resistance to disease; the latter sustains tho strength of tho pa? tient, while it restores tho suspended functions of the secretory organs and re? lieves tho bowels without violence or pain. It is simply a choice between re? storative and prostration. N3f3+1
