The Eesult.
Tha'grand victory of Tuesday is one
to make glad a Nation's heart. It is
the potential voice of a just and gener
ous people speakingfor the true and
right; a verdictrom whose- soverign
power there is no appeal. It declares
in language not to be mistaken, that
this is a unified Nation, possessing :;m
ple power to protect each and every
citizen in the full enjoyment of all his
constitutional and inalienable rights.
It is the ubiquitous voice of freemen
proclaiming in trumpet tonesv the pu
rity.of the ballot, the sovereignty of
the citizen, and the protecting; shield,
of the law over the lowest as well as
the highest. The wise and generous
fostering of American labor, the full
payment of National obligations and
honest money without the shadow of a
"bar sinister across the fieldjof its puri
ty. It proclaims the advancing march
of a noble and benign civilization; the
development of new and regnent
forces to be well and wiselj' applied
throughout all the 'manifold avenues
of American endeavors; it speaks for
the strict enforcementof National law
in every quarter of the land; the sup
pression of fraud and intimidation at
the polls; the perfection of a civil ser
serwice. Education, broad and un
trammeled, right enforced, wherever
floats Uie National flag; and wrongs
speedily redressed, wherever -crime
lifts its hand of violence, against the
citizen or the Nation. It means that
this great and cultured" peopleire to be
ruled for the next four years by meaof
pure and lofty patriotism, men who
are true to the genius and instincts of
our rapidly advancing civilization and
men w.ho do most devoutly believe in
the brotherhood of man and the
Fatherhood- of God.
Positive Proof of a Democratic Porgery.
The Postmaster at Washington City
wrote the following letter to the chair
man of the Republican National com

that the Garfield Chinese letter was a
malicious forgery:
Hon. Marshall Jewell, Now York :
The New York Truth publishes
what purports to be the fac simile of a
letter alleged.to have been written by
Gen. Garfield to one H. L. Morey, on
the Chinese question, together with
the envelope in which it should have

iB a manufactured, bold and villainous
fraud, the following will fairly show:

Bevisioa of the Bible.
The work of revising the Bible is
rapidly drawing to a close. "We may
expect the issue at the end of this year
or beginning of next. The New Testa
ment will be published by itself. The
Old Testament cannot be published be
fore 188o, owing to greater bulk. On
this topic the Christian Union says:
If we should indulge in prejudices
we should likely say that prejudiced
minds will object to many changes that
will be found, because some familiar
phrases, like "ho who now lettetli will
let," will (we doubt not) be rubbed out
and something- better inserted. But
thoughtful persons, and those who de
sire the meaning of the Greek original,
cannot but be pleased with a transla
tion in which forty-one Greek scholars
of all Christian creeds are agreed. "We
are not afraid that in style any more
than in translation these forty-one men
will go astray and shock the Protest
ant world. These men know what is
good English and what is dignified
English. They love the old English
Bible as much as Bishop Coxe does,
and they will see that it is not roughly
treated." Our advice, then, is to keep
quiet until the revised version appears,
and then let us examine it, not in the
light of our prejudices, but in the light
of a scholarlv common sense. All at
tempts now to say what it is, or to as
sail it, are premature. Our own writ
ing is merely to show that we have rea
son to expect the best.

Praudulent Poll Boots in. Illinois.
Quixcy, October 29. The discovery
was nude this afternoon that the poll
books printed for this county by the
democratic official organ, and distribut
ed by the democratic county clerk, were
so greatly erroneous as to vitiate the
election of republican presidential elec
tors on Tuesday, if they had remained
uncorrected. The poll books contain
ed the names of all the democratic
electors in full, while all but seven of"
the republican candidates' first names
had been omitted. If returns were
made upon these poll books valid ob
jection to counting the vote for the re
publican electors could readily be rais
ed. The announcement of the facts
created a great sensation in political
circles in the city.

printed it. because he did not believe it

however, disclose the name- of the

Legitimate letter writing, by respon

tions, and are not liars, aiul not sisham
ed of their utterances, does not usually
imperil business or life.
The Whereabouts of Gold.
The gold reserve in the Bank of
France amounts to S140,S00,000, in the
Bank of England to $123,312,650, in the
United States Treasury, to $135,244,839,
and in the bank of Germany to only
$47,000,000, the remainder of the hit
ter's reserve SS5,000,000 being in
silver. The gold in France and Eng
land is steadily decreasing, much of it
coining to this country. In France un
der the operations of the double stand
ard, gold is drained from the bank in
exchange for silver, but the finances of
that country are in a most healthy con
dition. In" the first ten weeks of the
business season last year from Aug. 1
to Oct. 9 the gold imports at New
York amounted to $40,300,203, and in
the same time $20,899,548 in gold and
$39,775,0S6 in legel lenders were drawn
from the New York banks and United
States Treasury to supply the demands
of business. In the same period this
year the specie imports have amounted
to $32,332,205, while $49,481,118 in gold
and $9,854,570 in legal tenders have
gone out and into various channels of
business.
The Public Domain.
The number of acres of public do
main surveyed is estimated at 15,099,
253 acres, private surveys at 652,457
acres. This is an increase over the pre
vious year of 7,253,471 acres. The num
ber of acres of the public domain sur
veyed up to this fiscal year is stated as
752,557,195; yet to be surveyed, 1,062,
231,727. Lands were disposed of as
follows, during the year: Homestead
entry, 0,045,570 acres; timber culture,
2,193,1S4 acres; agricultural college
scrip, 1,2S0 acres; sections entered with
military and land warrants, SS.522

3,757,SS8 acres; lands certified for rail

By the way, did Mr. Tilden's experi
ence with political telegrams induce
Mr. Barnum to to make that arrange
ment with the "Western Union Tele
graph Company to have all his dispatch

patches been of such a character that
he dare not trust them in the hands of
the telegraph company to be exposed by
congressional investigating commit

apprdvo of the use of methods to secure
his election that require this remark

The latest railroad news that inter
ests Lincoln is that the C, B. & Q., rail
way company have formed an organi
zation and completed arrangements for
the building of a line from Denver
west to Utah. TheB. & M. is virtually
owned bv the stockholders of the C,
B. & Q. The B. & M. are now at work
on the extension of their road in Ne
braska to Denver. Then, with the
"Denver and Utah "Western," as that
is the name of the new road, a through
lino is owned by the C, B. & Q. road
from Chicago to Utah.
"What next? Only keeping right on
in their characteristic silence and ener
gy and they will soon have a through
line from Chicago to San Francisco,
which will prove a powerful rival to
the Union Pacific, for they will have
a linger road and that through abetter
part of the country. Through the
southern and far richer part of Nebras
ka; through Colorado, which is strper-
i lor to Utah and includes in its route
the capital cities of these states, the

Upon this subject the Chicago Trib-
nne has the following: "The Chicago,
Burlington & Qmncy is certainly the
toughest customer Jay Gould has met
with yet The managers of this road
take no stock in h's promises and
agreements, but they go right ahead
constructing new lines in all directions
to enable them to bid defiance to
Gould's dictation. Not only are they
making good headway on their new
Peoria & Toledo line and on their
Huraestone and other extensions in
Iowa, but they are getting up new
schemes nearly every week for the
construction of new lines into Gould's
territory. The latest work in that di
rection is the formation of an organi
zation to build a line from Denver
west to Utah. This line will be known
as the Denver & Utah "Western. Sur
veyors are already in the field, and as
soon as they are through work will be
commenced.
The organization of a company by
the Burlington to build this line shows
that it also means to extend in the im
mediate future its Burlington and Mis
souri River line in Nebraska from In-
dianola to Denver, to connect with the
new line at the latter point.

An Outrage hj the Sed Shirts..
Ex-Congressman Mackey telegraph
ed to the New York Tribune from
Orangeburg, S. G, the following: To
day I went to Gleaton's, in Orangeburg
County, for the purpose of holding a
Republican meeting, of which notice
had been previously give:. I was ac
companied by Mr. Livingston, the Re
publican Sheriff of the county, Mr.
"Webster, one of our candidates for
election, and several others.
"Upon our arrival at the place of meet
ing we found a large number of Dem
ocratic red-shirts who had come for
the purpose of having a, joint discus
sion, and to this we conseuted. The
Republican Precinct Chairman then
opened the meeting by reading the call.
While he was doing so one of the Dem
ocrats drew a pistol, and, without any
provocation wliatever, shot down a col
ored man who was quietly standing
near the wagon from which the speak
ing was to take place. Several other
shots were fired, but nohody else was
hurt.
After the excitement had subsided a
little the Democrats were satisfied that
the Republicans would not participate
in the joint discussion, but would with
draw and hold a meeting- of their own
on the private lands of a Republican
who lived near by. Tiio Republicans
then left the nlace. and went to the
place named, and then proceeded to
organize their meeting, but were pre
vented from doing so by the red-shirts,
who followed them and demanded a
division of time, which the Republi
cans refused to give.
After considerable talking, some of
the Democrats cried out to me: '-"Will
you quit, and call this a Democratic
Victory ?"" "Yes; Tarn-willing to call
it a Democratic 'victory.' "
The Democrats positively refused ;to
nermit the Republicans to have their
meeting, even on the private grou ids
to which they had gone, unless they
would divide time with them. Unfor
tunately the Republicans, expecting no
trouble whatever, went to the meeting
entirely unprepared for any distur
bance, while the Democrats were thor
oughly armed. E. "W. M. Mackey.

This attempt to force a quarrel on
John Sherman recalls aii incident
which occurred in the house of repre
sentatives some thirty-five years ago.
"When Mr. Sherman was fearlessly
and eloquently exposing the aggres
sions of a slave democracy, a cbivalric
member (from Kentucky, I believe,)
strode up the centre aisle and stood in
a threatening attitude directly in front
of Mr. Sherman, who, pausing long
enough to be sure an insult was intend
ed, ihrew his water-box into the offen
der':! face. But for the instant inter
pos'tion of a dozen members there

the excitement that the house soon ad
journed. Mr. Sherman was informed
by a democratic member, but a person
al friend, that he was to bo assaulted
after leaving the capitol, democratic
and whig members collected in groups.
A conflict was considered inevitable.
Some of Mr. Sherman's whig friends
urged him to take a seat in a carriage
with them. Many others insisted up
on, walking home with him. Mr. Sher
man, however, determined to return to
his lodgings, as was his habit, on foot
and unaccompanied. In the capitol
grounds he encountered his irate col
league with a bevy of friends. They
"looked daggers but did not use them."
Mr. Sherman was neither assulted
nor insulted then or afterward. The
Sherman family, as has been frequent
ly shown, shrink from no just respon
sibility either as civilians or soldiers.

The apple trade has been Yery brisk

have remained ridiculously low.
Thousands of barrels of fine Greening
apples, in proper shape for export,.
have oeen soiu ior auout $i per oarrei.
The barrel in which they were, packed
cost 35 cents, the freight to this city
was from 15 to 20 cents, the cartage
was 5 cents more, the commission 10
cents more, leaving the grower only
35 cents to pay for his apples, the ex
pense of picking them (and they must
all be hand-picked not gathered from
the ground), the trouble cf packing
them into barrels and hauling them to
thelandingfor shipment. Many thous
ands of barrels of apples which had
been shaken from the trees and then
gathered from the ground havo been
sold in this city, in barrels, for 50 cents
per barrel. In the past three weeks
nearly 30,000 barrels of apples, princi
pally Greenings, Newtown Pippins,
and Baldwins, have been shipped to
Europe from this city alone, and not a
steamer sails from this port to cross
the Atlantic that does not cany ap
ples. They are even shipped by sailing
vessels from Boston. Upward of 16,000
barrels a day is New York's contribu

quantity is equivalent to 120, car loads
per day! For many years certain va
rieties of American apples have been
held in h'gh esteem in England, and
the moct popular of all them is the
Newtown Pippin, Only a few years

$28 per'barrel. A fe'i- years since sev

has been increased, until it lias reached
the astonishing proportions enumer
