Thure will be no protection for the tajt-paying; jS.o-ile. The bulldozinsr of the Radical" with a view of electing a President by stifling or the ballot-rtox have aroused the jioople, who dciiiand that tlieie be greater protection to th; ballot-box, and that the votes of fi-eemeii be counted as they were cast. Governor Thomas A. Hendricks, in his recent message to the Indiana legislature. Bays: "The laws regulating our eltftionH require jour K-eciul attention.

They do not restrain corr-jpt nor prate the votes of the jieopL-. Our elections ni jt-t not ljecome a reproach. Their result must vxpross th-' will oi UjO people Our system must be made so efficient as to guarantee purity in the conduct and iuanajfcnient of the elections, i'nd also to irpire and establish public confid-jnec. When the people know that a political result ha? been lairly brought aixrat, all discostent ppean; ihey cheerfully acquiesci and yield i-ntire obedienoj to the authority thereby established. I now attenpt to provisions that may be essential to an iiiliciont Bj st.m, but without tha following no rystcm will probably prove eilicient." We hear lhe ame compLtint in nearly all the States, und the pf.ople are clamorous for more strin-t'ent laws for the proU.ction of the ballot-box The present legislature of Tennessee should look into this matter, and devise some means lor restraining fraudulent voting in Tennessee, and especially here in Memphis.

Our city is located in the corner of three tilutet, and the fiXlitie for fraudulent voting are great, and fn every election unscrupulino j-pOlrt3crari3-'' i iVnrlve of these fao'ilities. As evidence of this we have only to refer to the vote of Randolph in the lt election. A careful analysis of the vote will show that in nearly every ward he received hundrels of fraudulent votes. In the first, ward the frauds are patent. The poll-books show that many negroes voted who never resided in the ward, and these same hired repeaters voted in other wards.

Some of these repeaters have confidentially confessed the swindle, and will make oath to that effect at the proper time. We agree with Governor Hendricks that utronger guards must lie thrown around the ljallot-box. Purity in elections inspires obedience to law. Corrupt the stifle its voice, count put the candidates who received a majorify, and elect the minority candidates, and th people entertain a contempt for law enacted by villains who secured their positions by fraud. A pure election creates respect for officials and the law under which tlu-y act or which they enact for the protection of society.

It is a fact worthy of note that the corruption of th ballot-box is only attempted by the Radicals. Returning boards are the contrivances of Radicals to retain power. They are the inventions of carpetbaggers. No northern community would tolerate for a single moment a returning board with power given to four knaves to elect a President, members of congress, governor and a State legislature. The majority jriven the Democrat in Louisiana is equal to a majority of fory thousand in Oliio.

If Ohio had given forty thousand majority for Hayes, and a Democratic returning board should undertake to ilirow out forty thousand Republican votes and give the State to the Radical senate would indigniintly crush the swindle. Tiicn why permit the fraud in Louisiana by which it is projiosed to pervert the Democratic majority aad count in the defeated candiiLttes The country will join Governor Hendricks in his demand for a greater protection to the b'dlot-box. The right to vote is a constitutional right, and it niut.t not be abridged by returning boards. Our system of government does not permit any returning board, composed of four thieves, to decide a Presidential election. A returning board must it lie permitted io usurp the liberties of the people; LAMAK AXIr YOl'XU.

We that neither Ca.sey Young nor L. (. C. Lamar will pay any further attention to the mi-representations that have persistently been made as to their positions. The eople of the south impose implicit confidence in these two distinguished champions.

They know that at the right time the voice of both will be heard on the right side and that they will exercise the influence they have acquired by prudence and wise salesmanship for the protceti of the liberties of the people, the Bafct3- of the republic and to avert the great calamity of war. The ideifany Democrat in congress selling out to Hayes is so preposterous that does not deserve the promi-j nee that has been given ir. The south has IP: bargain or compromise to make with Hayes, and his iforta to purchase the south is as corrupt us. the murderer who would tamper with the jury. Th? southern people, under no circumstances, will indorse the inauguration of a President iu defiance of the people.

THE APPEAL FOR 177. The Appeal is so well known to the peo-rie of Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi and ennessee, who have been patrons and read- fur nearly forty years, that it is only for us to say ttiut it will continue the same policy which has placed it beyond controversy among the foremost journals of south. The probable election of Tilden ill invest the lemocratic party with the iresh responsibilities which this great trust ituposes, and the Appeal will zealously cooperate with the National Democracy in the work of reform and reconciliation between tne sections. The momentous events that will transpire during the year 177 will impart unusual interest to a newspaper. Grave wain s.

lull of thrilling interest, will be dis-ussi and and the Appeal will t'iitlifully chronicle the event as they transpire. The occurrences of the year will crowd upon each other, and the Appeal will give tnu history of the times. DRKW 'M IXAKil HATIOX.

From an Appeal 1 Tallahassee, January 2. I telegraphed you to-day of the inauguration of lion. George F. Drew, the i- mocnitic governor elect of Florida. The inauguration took place from the east steps of the capitol in presence of over five thousand people.

When the governor made his appearance upon the steps in company with Chief-Justice (who administered the oath of office), t'ae welkin was rnado to ring -with the joyous shouts of the vast assemblage of the representative of Florida, who realize the f.ict that truth so long crashed to earth had risen aiT.tin clothed in her mautle of liberty (at least for our people). The governor's message was well-timed, short, plain and to the. point, reflecting great credit upon him. great was the desire of the vast crowd to do hi in honor, that as soon as he had finished readintr his message he was taken upon the backs of the people and tarried to his oliice within the capitol. Every one seemed eager to do him some honor, and well they may, for a truer man or a finer specimen of "nan is not within our a man of the olden school a man of and with the masses of the people.

The people of Florida feel that they nave in George F. Drew an honest man and a faithful servant of the people, and that he will be watchful and mindful of the interests of a people that have been robbed by Itadical taxation and confiscation. It would have done your heart sroo-l to have witnessed the grand spectacle, and to have heard the remarks as they fell from the hps of the overjoyed people, as they were moving around and congratulating each other upon their delivery troni Stearns and Radical rule. Oh, sirs, it was truly grand The people wero rejoicing with each other, and snaking hands, ana tue following were among the most prominent utterances: AnanK uoa, nave nveu to see Florida once more "George F. Drew is our governor, God Wess him!" "I feel that I am free once mere, and am ready to die." One old gentleman, near eighty years of age, said to me: is worth all it has cost us and ten thousand more." The writer saw two old men stantling with clasped hands, the tears rolling down their faces, and their hearts too fall tor utterance, and oneot tnem pointed to Governor George i'- Ilium inn) iirl -Their; liv is; he has saved us, and 1 love him." To-day has been a memorable epoch in the history of Florida, and I tell you we have very great cause to rejoice, for we have fought a very hard battle against the most formidable set of "brigands' that ever lived in any country Purnian, Stearns.

Dennis backed up by the powers at Washington with bayonets and money, and yet the hardest fight was after the election before the canvassing loard and the courts. We say "honor to our courts," for they did their duty, and will long remembered by a grateful rn-ople. The Radicals have had General Lew Wallace and Laundalet Williams with them as their counsel. They were sent by Grant, Chandler Ai are, I suppose, paid out of the public crib at Washington, lhe outgoing governor, Stearns, who, by the way, is of the vary lowest order of men, refused to be present and hand over the State to Governor Drew, although he was waited upon by a committee of the friends of Governor Drew. It is said that Stearns did this at the request of Wallace and Williams, the servants of Grant.

The people of Florida have no for any of Grant's henchmen. Colonel K. H. M. Davidson, frmn the first district, uid ocutrii J.

J. mley, Trom the second are elected and will get their seats. They are true men and represent the intelligence of Florida. They were great in war, and are leaders in times like the present. With a good State and Federal government, Florida will ere long be on the road to prosperity, and will take place among her sister States of the Union.

May it be a Union of the whole pco- fle, and we Florida say long live Drew and lall, Tilden and Hendricks. Inaugural Address. The following is the full text of Governor Drew's inaugural, every word of which will be lived up to by the people of Florida: Fellow-Citizens Having taken the oath of office as prescribed by the constitution, I am about to enter upon the grave and re sponsible duties appertaining to the position of chief magistrate of Florida. The will of the as legally expressed at the ballot-box, has been enforced by the mandate of our highest judicial tribunal, and it must be a source of supreme satisfaction for every citizen to feel that, whatever results may flow from the excitement of political contests, he has thp broad shield and the protecting arm of an impartial judiciary as the final arbiter of his rights. And the quiet ai.d entire submission of citizens of all parties to the decision of the supreme court is the surest guarantee that we are a law-abiding people, resolved jo perpetuate free institutions, and to transmit to our posterity the Tjless-ings of constitutional government.

As the contest is over, let us hope that the animosities engendered thereby nave died away, and that, as your chosen executive, I may be able to rise to the true and broad statesmanship of occupying the position of governor of the State ot Florida, and not the head of a political party. Our immense territorial dimensions demand a population commensurate with its capacity. Let us demonstrate, by wise measures, that our feelings and interests xinbine to generously invite an immigration that will promote this most desirable result. Reflecting upon the past only as a guide for the future, let us endeavor to bring about an era of good- feeling between all classes, and build up the prosjierity of Florida by the combined efforts of her entire population. A large portion of that population, recently enfranchised, have been taught to feel solicitous of the continuance of their newly acquired rights, if the piu-ty of which I have been the honored candidate came into possession of our State government.

Their fears are groundless, and our colored fellow-citizens may finally rest assured that theii rights, as guaranteed by the constitution, will be fully sustained. It is both our wish and our interest to protect them in all their rights and to bring about the kindest feelings between the races. As the executive of this State I shall exhaust every legal and constitutional remedy for the protection of the rights, the life and the liberty of every citizen feeling that such a course is my highest duty and most conducive to the prosperity of State. A northern man by birth and a Union man from principle, 1 recognize that the Democracy of Florida, in placing mo in this high position, demonstrate their desire for a true and fraternal union of all sections of our common country. That such a union may be firmly established, and ever remain peaceful, prosperous and happy, is the hop ot every patriot.

At a period in our country's history when the theory of republican government is undergoing a severe test, it is the duty of every law-abiding citizen to ue his earnest efforts for the promotion of harmony and the security of those institutions. I hope and believe thai the political contest now waging in the Federal arena will be peaceful settled, and that the chosen constitutional agents of the people will be quietly inaugurated with the full sanction of the honest masses of all parties. When I have received and considered the reports of the -various heads of nients I sliall, in accordance with dutv and usage, transuiit them to the legislatue with u-ansuut mem to me iegislatue with suggestions as I may deeui appropriate. I can more appropriately refer to defecting the political and material inter- sucn fi Then tails at? ests of the SUte. Returning my heartfelt tiianks to the people ot the State ot ionda for their confidence and support in elevating me to this position, and hoping that I may be auie io mevt hu meir just, exp-ciauons, I ask their kind indulgence upon my administration of public affairs, and in my earnest efforts for their welfare and prosperity I invoke the assistance of an over-ruling providence.

The weather was very inclement, notwithstanding which a large number of persons called at the house prior to the removal of the remains to the Church of Strangers, where the funeral services were held. The remains, which were encased in a metal casket, were laid in the large hall and viewed by friends, visitors, and a deputation of two hundred and fifty ot the attaches of the New York Central and Hudson River railroads. The floral offerings were of the most simple character, and all attempts at display were studiously avoided. A large crowd witnessed the removal of the remains from the house to the church, which were carried on a by six men, one hundred and fifty police kee-ung the streets clear. Among the principal visitors during the morning were Daniel Drew, Thurlow Weed, Augustus Schell, Rev.

Dr. John Hall, Marshal O. Roberts, Cyrus W. Field, Governor Morgan, Samuel Ward, and Chauncey M. Depew.

The procession from the house to the church was on foot, and headed by Revs. Drs. Deems and Hutton, and Drs. Linsley and Elliott, together wil Drs. Flint and Van Huren.

The casket was folk wed by Mr. W. H. Vanderbilt and Mrs. C.

Cross, and a large number of the relatives of the deceased. The Church of the Strangers was heavily draped with black cloth. Admission was by ticket and every seat was occupied, the pews in the center being reserved for the famdy and neat relatives and friends, 'i he casket was borne into the church by twelve men, preceded by Rev. Dr. Deems, who read the Episcopal burial service; it was placed on a catafalque outside the chancel, the only flowers on it being one small cross of tuberoses.

The commodore's pew was draped in mourning and remained unoccupied. The organ played a dirge as the procession moved up the aisle. After the service was read the hymns, Sweet Hour of Prayer, and Tfiere is Rest for the Weary, were sang by the choir. These were two of the commodore's favorite hymns, and Dr. Deems said he had often seen tears roll down the cheeks of our friend while listening to the latter.

Dr. Deems prayed long and fervently, and asked for blessings on the bereaved wife and family, and on all who had eoeOwA-Uiri mrnodore in his last hours. Af ter prayer he in i I niuiiiiinH ml said: He who now lies in the cothn before us charged me that but few words should be said over him, and that in them no supposed virtues should be set forth. I will talk not of the dead, but to the living; living men have no time to think of death; their lives are too busy. The Holy Ghost eays true religion is work, work; be ye abounding in (rood works; be busy in doing good to human ity, and devot no time to thoughts ot death the Lord will attend to that, as He attended to our birth.

Some people say we must all die, and therefore they argue that we ought to spend our lives in preparing to die. This is not true christian religion not one bit of it. True religion is to go forward with life, hold well to the reins, but don't stop the chariot. Our friend was ot is belief, and his life abounded in work and good deeds. He charged me to say that not for one minute his lite did he ever disbelieve the bible, and that neither mvseli nor any other minis ter had anything to do with pursuing him in the belief of it.

Among his last words to me were: 'Doctor, you never crowded religion on I replied: 'No, but I never kont back from you any of God's religion necessary -mxi BoiTnchm. av uic conclusion oi trie services the casket was placed in the hearse, and the procession started for the Staten Island ferry. An immense crowd was collected around the church when the cortege set out. There were over one hundred carriages hired for the friends and employes of the deceased, in addition to which numerous private carriages and sleighs joined the procession as it moved slowly down broadway. board and the rest were left behind.

At two o'clock the carriages were landed at Vander bilt landing, the procession reformed and set out for the oid Moravian church at New Dorp. The church was unable to contain a tithe of those who came in carriages and the crowds of Staten Islanders who had assembled. There were no emblems of mourning in the church on the contrary it still wore its Christmas decorations. The coffin having been borne up the aisle, prayer was delivered by the pastor, Rev. W.

H. Vogler, after which Dr. Deen-s read the conclusion of the Episcopal church burial service. The coffin lid was removed and all were permitted to take a last look at the face of the old commo dore. The remains were then carried to the Vanderbilt vault adjoining, the clergymen and physicians heading the procession.

Next came the coffin, then Wm. H. Vanderbilt and lady, Jacob Vanderbilt, brother of deceased, and widow, and other members ot the tami-ly, and lastly, the friends and employes. The coffin was encased in a strong oaken chest and lowered to the place prepared for it. 1 he monument is about thirty teet high, is of granite, with marble statue of grief in front, and the simple inscription ander-bilt." By the post-mortem examination of the body of Commodore Vanderbilt it was found that the immediate cause ot death had been ulceration resulting in a perforation of the i i i rpL.

i.r colon or large intestine. iue periuruuou, the doctor concluded, could not have existed more than a day or two before death, but the ulceration which caused it have been going on for three weeks. Besides this, there was chronio inflammation of the bladder, which gave rise to the intense pains that the commodoie endured at intervals, and prolapsus ani. Both lungs, the heart, the Kidneys and liver were found to be more or less affected by disease or unhealthy action, hut not sufficiently so as to cause death. The perforation of the intestine which caused the death of the commodore, seems to have been a somewhat unexpected development of his disease.

Chamberlain's Hopes Lie in the President or Congress. New Yokk, January 8. The Herald's correspondent telegraphs from Columbia that Governor Chamberlain said to him yesterday that the action of the Hampton government in providing for the lunatics, orphans and convicts relieved him of his greatest embar rassment, and he was gratified that the Dem ocratic tax-payers and other charitably dis posed persons had assumed the care ot these unfortunates. Chamberlain does not think that this voluntary contribution of taxes will have any effect whatever in deciding who is the legal governor of the State. He says the Question of the governorshio- cannot be de cided by the people of the State now, nor by any tnumuu in tne state, but that it will be settled in Washington either by congress or the President.

He does not look forward to any collisions or clashes of authority that would be serious, and all minor conflicts as to the possession of offices would find an easy and peaceful solution in the courts.

Advancing years, sickness, care, disappointment, and hereditary predisposition, all turn the hair gray, and either of tbem Incline It to shed prematurely. Atkh's Hair Vigor, by long and extensive use, has proven that It stops the falling of the hair Immediately; often renews the growth, and always surely restores its color, when faded or gray. It stimulates the nutritive organs to healthy activity, and preserves both the hair and Its beauty.

Thus brashr. weak or sickly hair becomes glossy, pliable and strengthened; lost balr regrows with lively expression Falling hair Is checked and stabllshed thin hair thickens; and faded or gray hair resume their original color. Its operation Is sure and harmless. It curea dandruff, heals all humors, and keens tne scalDCoel. clean and soft under which conditions diseases ot the scalp are Impossible.

As a dressing for ladles' balr, the Vigor Is praised for Its grateful and agreeable perfume, and values i tor the soft luster anp richness of tone It Imparls. PREPARED BT DR. J.
