Under date ot November 2J, the New
York Tribune thus describes the scene at
Cooper's Institute: The expressions of
enthusiasm when Evarts stepped on the
platform with Dodge and. Jay -were long
and loud, but when he had been Intro
duced the applause was deafening, nnd
rose and subsided several times, the audi
ence rising to their feet and swinging hats
and handkerchiefs and giving three cheers.
Evarts opened his argument wuh a digni
fied tribute to the good sense and keen
perceptions of the Anwrlcan peplt, who
would not bow to any master, foreign or
flomestie, who knew as much about the
credit and political responsibilities of the
nation as any financial house, in Wall
street or moneyed street of London. The
American people had been slow to accept
the necessity of rebellion, and had pa til
for its lesson in ptieeiess blood and trei
sure; but, said the speaker, with a lsiug
voice, we don't want two such eye openers
ia one generation. The applause that fol
lowed was at flr?t very boisterous; then
there was a lull and profound silence, as
It the audience were weighing in their
tainds the grave importar.ee and solem
nity of what had been uttered, and there
followed deep and protracted applause.
a? it in angry protest at the suggestion of
such an isme again rising. On more than
one occasion during the evening tlie audi
ence appeared startled into depression ex
pressed by profound silence and the quiet
exchange ot astonished glances at the mo
mentous propositions winch he Jadvanced
and the conclusions to which his logic led.
'Vtiia silence at time? grew oppressive to
Wfleuers, and as a relief they indulged in
ilaaiiter to seeming excess when Evarts
was witty or sarcastic. This was not infre
'ijuent, and some of the most brilliant pas
'sages oljliis long oration were of this style.
lie lias usually ben beard in legal arga
imsnts upon serious causes, and few who
litenrd him tor the first time displaying the
Treedom of the stump suspected there was
so much fun in him. In thin affecting and
influencing his vast audience to intensity
of feeling and expression of g,eatest
mirth. Evarts was strangely succesalui.
Had lie been disposed, or "lid the charac
ter of his logical mini permit, he could
liave fired it toward the close of his speecli
'to as great indignation. A pleasant, and
us many thought, significant event of the
evening, was the entrance ot Peter Cooper,
to vbnm Evarts turned, and of whom he
at once said pleasant word4.

ay "Registration, which has been very

forenoon warrants (or the arrest of eight

the ofiiee ot the U. S. district attorney and
I'.laced In the hands ot tlfe IT. S. Marshal
and his diputies. Seme of them were
gathered in last evening, and the balance

tlie difficulty in finding these eoloni-ts, it
Las been decided to arrest these fraudulent
voters in small batches. Other warrants
v;ill be made out to-day, and the work o
arresting will go on tlil t)4 closing of (he
polls on the day of election. Arrange
ments have been made to .have a prelim
inary examination ot the first batch of ar

THE IIKIOUE.
The great contest for Presidential honors
ami power closes U day, after which the
people ot S.tleni, Marion and Polk coun
ties should go to work in earnest, nnd se
cure that much needed improvement, a
bridge across the Willamette river. Let
us biive no trilling, but positive and united
work until the wiicme proves a success.
TII.UEX AX1 THE HJAM'I.U MTV A
TJO Evidence accumulates showing that the
original statement regarding tlve effect of
niden'a election upon the new loanvas
correct, and that Mr. August Belmont mis
represented the facts in his zeal to make a
better exhibit for the Democratic candi
date. The Treasury Department is in re
ceipt of letters from experienced F.nropean
financiers, all tending to the same effect,
namely, that in tlie event of a Democratic
victory It would be impossible to float the
loan. To add to the fo-w of these assur
ances we may point to tlie circular printed
In our telegraphic columns yesterday. In
which a number of the most prominent
merchants, hankers and business men of
the Fast .express their conviction that the
material interests of tlie country demand
the elect ion of Hayes and Wheeler. Nor
can there bo any reasonable doubt as to
the genuineness ot" those representations,
for it is impossible to examine the policy
and affiliation? of tits Democratic candi
date without being satisfied that his elec
tion would entail great danger upon the
country. Should lie write letters from
now until the d iy of election he could not
persuade any sane observer that tho
Southern people aro not bent upon re
couping their losses during tho rebellion,
or that the Southern element would not.
in the event of his election, run the Gov
ernment. These two implications are so
Clear tliat no argument is rcmiiaite
to demonstrate their certainty, aud
it is perhaps unnecessary to add that
foreign capitalists would be quite jus
tified in buttoning up their pocKets
by the apprehension of either of these
contingencies. In fact, tlie preserva
tion of our national credit depends
upon the election of Hayes and Wheel
er, and if they are not elected Ameri-'
can securities will speedily become
drugs in the money markets of the
world, and American loana will be de
clined at generally as those of Turkey
aud the South American .Republics .

The Mississippi plan of election eer
Ing with the shot gun, Colt and Der
ringer may have qualities ot tempo
rary effectiveness! which commend It
to South Carolina chivalry, but it has
disadvantages which weigh heavily
against it in the long run. It was
tried in Texas, and proved very effect
ive as far as the election was concern
ed, but its after consequences have
not been agreeable, as witness these
remarks of the Dallas Herald, a Dem
ocratic paper of lit ;t State:
Tlie people are heartsick and weary
of murder. Tltev bang their lieaus in
yery shame at the character -Texas is
obtaining abroad. They -know and
feel that it doe her every interest in
finite hurt, retards immigration,
drives back capital, arrests internal
improvements, bankrupts and beg
gars our citizens.
To be sure, Texas is a vast State, to j
which a tide of immigration has set
in, and which has the finest prospects
for future development anil prosperity,
if law nnd oider prevail. These disa
gieeable after consequences of the
Mississippi plan reveal themselves
more promptly and in a inure Dracti
cal and realizable way to its citizens
that they may to States like 8outit
Carolina" and M Usissippi, which do
rot seem to desire immigration, but
they will make themselves equally as
plain some day, ami that not fur in
tlie future, to any Mate, whose people
resort to murl-r as an electioneering
device JJMic.
A JiOWI.J. "HKfr'OiniEK."
It is in Tildcn's assumed character as a
reform" Governor that General Dix
shows Tilden up in clearest colore. He
Illustrates how Governor Tilden allowed a
bill, in wlrch one of his friends was inter
ested, to become a law by pretending to a
want of time for its examination, when
ho knew it was a fraud of $.",000on the
State Treasury. The following is Gover
nor Dix's language:
lliat the want of tune to .examine it
was a mere pretext to cover up a gross de
reliction ot olticial duty, and that be de
liberately permitted a bill to become a law
authorizing fOu.WX) to be paid on a con
tract which he had Mlgmati'ed as having
been fraudulently overpaid $75,000. That
his conduct is utterly indefensible is man
liest from the tact that he might have ve
toed tlii partot the bill, under a recent
amendment of the Constitution giving the
Governor power to disapprove one item
in a money bill and approve it as to the
residue a power he has exercised in other
cases. Such was tin first act in hisroe as
a reformer an act which destroyed all
confidence in him among fair-minded men
by miking it manifest that his pretended
reforms was a mere scheme to make polit
ical capital on which he might traue tor
the l'residencv.
THAT MLVIIKTOV ORUI
l'OXDET Of the Governor's organ is a boyish squirt
who boasts ot having served in the rebel
army, ami takes advantage of the toff pate
of Col. Gllfry to do a piece of dirty work.
Such puerile efforts In puffing himself are
too thin for consumption among sensible
men.
VAISI HOAST.
When any fellow takes pains to
boast of having fought to break up
our government, look upon I.im with
suspicion. He is a bad class of "do: li 8
pin."
i in; t.vuhaxy twjns.
Tilden's action In reference to the
welfare of the fallen chief when h
shall have arrived in ew York har
bor, is beautifully suggestive of the
loving friendship which should al
ways exist between brothers iu din
tress, vvuatever tie saw ot Tilden'
loyalty to the North, Republicans
should hasten to do him the justice of
according toTweed manifestations of
gratitude which should place him
high In the estimation of all who
shared with "Boss" the wampum of
those halcyon days in the recollection
of the fallen chief. Of course it would
be inconsiderate to allude to the Item
ocratio regime under which Tweed
and Tilden amassed their wealth, for
according to Democratlo logic "dead
issues" are not admissible in the pres
eut campaign. Neither could the rel
evancy be sustained of how the form
er, for instance was first brought be
fore a Republican bar of justice; or of
the Republican judge or jury, which
convicted him; or of a Democratic
Sheriff who considerately allowed
him to make his escape; or of how he
now comes back at the invitation of
of the Republican Ktate Department
at Washington; or of the resolution of
thanks which Tilden failed to indite
for tho safe return of his coadjutor.
These are all matters of the "bloody
shirt"' era.si'.ict) which time the Dem
ocratic party has come forth a full
fledged and purified entity, direct
from the walls of the Democratic re
formatory. Tilden has a big soul.
He is also a statesman with many
years experience iu the diplomacy of
railroad rings and elections. It is
proper that he should have already
applied in due form for a habeas crpu
for his bosom fried, else that in the re
form atmosphere of Ludlow he might
dream dreams, have an attack of stag
gers or hyp. ophobia, vow and swear
in fact, in the solitude of those clam
my recesses, say naughty things eyen
of his friends, and thus indirectly
jeopardize the prosperity of the coun
try aud the cause of Tilden and re
form. There is a fitness in all things.
"Little children love one another."
Don't call bard names. Don't injure
the grand effect of the tidal wave
which is now sweeping like a holo
caust over the country, even fiom the
loyal mansions of the "solid South"
to the peaceful plains of Indiana,
from the lodgement of that "bar'l of
money iu Maine," to the reform con-
constituency of the Pacific Coast. Let
us dwell together in unity. Tilden,
care for your friend Tweed. Tweed,
don't expose your fridid Tilden,- and
so shall thy liberty be long upon the
earth, Iainmany Hall will receive
thee iMilid the raptures of a re-jmitcd
brotherhood, and tlie bastiles which
have been honored with thy presence
so long will know thee no more for-

Pllu.,wn:i.rillA. Nov. l.-Tlie Demo
crats have been making, in the South par
ticularly, constant and violent attacks on
Col. Mo-ehy. They represent him as the
hired agent of the administration, aud en
deavor to excite hostilit against him as a
deserter of the Confederacy. He has writ
ten, in reply to one of these charges, the
following letter, which needs no liutlier
explanation:
Waiuikkton. Va., Nov. 2. 1S70.
Col. J as. IJ. O'Xuai. Dvir air. 1
have just received your letter of the HOth
nit., inlorming me that a Democratic
orator in I'hilapelphia had stated that
Gen. Grant had appointed me to some
ollice. I am glad that you denounce the
statement, as it Is a lie. It originated
with tlie Tilden bureau, aud it was pro
nounced by me to be false in a letter pub
lished several weeks ago. They still con
tinue to circulate this with other lies about
me. 1 have never received In any shape
the slightest favor or benefit of any kind
from Gen. Grant's administration,
although 1 was his cordial supporter. The'
few Confederates lie has appointed to ollice
in the South were as loyal to the Govern
ment during the war as Tilden, arid are
much more so now. I am unable to ac
count tor the ferocity with which I have
been pursused by the Tilden organs
unless it be that they think their
candidate has a claim upon me lor my sup
port on account of the messages of sympathy
and cheer I received from him during
that unhappy period when I was fighting
to overthrow the Government of the Unit
ed States. But for the advice of such men
iu the North as Tilden. the South would
never have plunged into a disastrous war
and launched her fortunes n

that the projectile travels faster than

of its own movement not hieng heard
