Wut Vihoinia is not grldiroued with railroads nor cob-webbed with telegraphs; consequently the returns of the election held in that State last week come In very slowly.

It Is known, however, that Uie Legislature Is largely Democratic We can afford to Walt for details.

Tub little game of speculation Inaugurated by a ring of Federal officials In JJtah seems likely to come to naught. Jhe perverse Mormons absolutely refuse to rebel, and manifest a conciliatory and law-abidlug spirit, which furnishes not the least excuse for a declaration of martial law and the forcible seizure of their property by the zeajous gentlemen who are conducting the persecutions.

Brio-Bam Yovno has not yet been arrested, but an expedition is being organized for Ms capture. There Is an improbable Story that he is fleeing southward at the bead of oue hundred armed mounted pen. Exasperated at the hopelessness of securing a re-election by a fair and free expression of the will of the people, the President has resolved upon a bold and most wic ked expedient to accomplish the perpetoatlaa ofllss rclgolng It Is published, bpoa the. authority of Senator Poole, that Grant has expressed his determination to declare martial law throughout the entire South, and thus, by armed force and an organized system of terrorism, crush out the List semblance rjf liberty which yet remains to the un-fcappy people of those States. The pretext for this high-handed and outrageous procedure and every Intelligent man knows it is but a pretext of the flimsiest sort is the prevalence of outrages in that section, and the alleged Inability of the civil authorities to enforce the laws.

How this smartness and cunning were manifested he proceeds to tell us: 1. "A regular bureau was appointed to look especially after members of the Legislature." S. "This bureau gave particular attention to the close counties, and had all tht money could use tdvantagoilii.n There Is no doubt of that.

Who furnished this money he does not state, nor, perhaps, is it necessary. It was partly from the National bankers and the New England manufacturers, and partly collepted from the poor clerks and other officials at Washington. 8. This bureau, In the close counties of Hancock, Hardin, Vinton, Knox, Belmont, Madison and Highland, "advised the sacrifice of any or all of the Republican candidates for county offices to Insure the election of the Representatives." Many of theRcpub- 1 1 11.. V.nn.nM iican county imicrrs worvavtusuiy uu.H and they, of course, will be peculiarly grateful to John Shkrmajc, as the Juggernaut to whom they were offered up.

s. And this is a part which is especially worthy of attention, as Indicating what some people consider shrewd. He says: "While it was profuse In Its professions Of temperance to the prohibition leaders, It searched the Journal of the House of Hep. reufntatlves fr 170 for Dr. Weyer's vote in favor of tbe Adsir liquor law, aud laid the same berore all the liquor-sellers and saloon-keepers of lieluiout County, thereby petting them to oppose bis re-election as the Kfpresentatlve from that county, and aiding- to defeat htm.

It did the same thing to help defeat the re-elertioa of Mr. Boule in Vinton County. But this was not the -hlef weapon it used against him. Ilia vote In favor of Major Ward's hill to 'prevent the teaching of sectarfun religious lM'trlncs In tbe commoa schools or this was presented by this buccal in its Biost offennive and objectionable asect, and was thus made the instrumentality which defeated him. In Hardin Couutv ft made Mr.

Cessna's vote for this same hill defeat his re-election for Representative. Hancock County was made to repudiate Its Uepresentatlve in the Kifty-aintb General Aosembly, because some other Democrats had proved to be great neoundrels np there several years before. In Highland County the bureau charged that Rather Hughes had frequently been too drunk to attend to his duties In the and Fifty-ninth General Assemblies. Thus, by skillfully and adroitly working up these several mutters for the local politicians of the respective counties Just named, it succeeded in outgeneraling the Demoeratio State Committee as to members of the Legislature, and in carrying the House of Hep-resentalives, and, for all practical purpose, the Senate also." Now, that this was all very rascally, that it was conduct In the highest degree dishonorable, never for one moment seemed to have entered Into the head of our very communicative correspondent. It did not hesitate to be upon both sides of the temperance issue, and to manufacture a lie out of whole cloth against rr w-v is.

imner "hm, oi uigmanu, one oi the best and most attentive members In the last Legislature. So much for the past. Now for the future. We are Informed: "As before intimated, the Republicans will have control of the Senate, aa well as of tbe 'House of Representatives. It will be organized by the eleetlon of Republican officers, by the casting vote or tbe Lieutenant-Governor, who it undtritood to be Killing to take tkt rttpontibility for (As good of the party.

Immediately after the organization the contest against Dr. Kemp, the Demoeratio Senator elect from tbe Mout-gomery-l'relile District, will be inaugurated, and it wfll not be long till he will be voted cut, and Mr. Baylor, his Itepubltcaa competitor, will be voted i. Tbe opinion which Attorney-Genera! Pond volunteered to give. reverHing tbe decision of the Supreme Court of Ohio as to soldiers voting at the National Asylum near Dayton, will be sustained by the eighteen Republican Senators.

This is the programme of the Republican managers, and it wlU be carried out If a single one of the eigbtoen iH'inocratlo Senators remains In bis sent to keep the quorum complete till Mr. 8alerbe sworn in. After that the Republicans will have the number of votes required by the Constitution to pass bills." These contemplated proceedings are revolutionary, not only thoroughly revolutionary, but they oft the same piece of political villainy which enabled the mysterious bureau to carry the House of Representatives. It can and must be defeated. The Lieutenant-Governor has no right to vote for officers of the Senate.

He lias no right to vote for United States Senator, nor on the passage of laws. Mis attempt to do so will not be sustained by the Senate, and will lead to difficulties and embarrassments of a serious nature. The Democratic half of the Seriate owe it to truth, to justice and decency, to oppose any ejection of Dr. Kemp, the legally elected Senator from the Montgomery District, and the substitution of an interloper In his place, by the exercise, if necessary, of the most extreme legal rights. We shall see If John Sherman and other Republican aspirants for the Senate will favor such reckless and revolutionary proceedings as may delay for an indefinite irlod the election of a United States Senator.

The policy suggested as ngrecd upon by this correspondent so disreputable as to make the thlnible-rlgglng game appear respectable in comparison. 1 Tira Gazette shows the strong interest which the four great railroad trunk lines, the Pennsylvania Central, terminating here, and rery sensibly points to the fact that they must Increase Soutliern connections by tmlldlng owiurru rauruuus nuiu una puuik order to make their investments This Is all very well, but does our cotempbrary suppose "that our city authoritieswhile carefully guarding every Interest.wlU cheerfully grant all reasonable facilities, aud grant them promptly," as it advises?

IMPBOVEMENT OF THE OHIO AND MISSISSIPPI NAVIGATION.

We are glad to have so potent an allas the Oatettt in our demand upon Congress that it shall make such appropriations for the Ohio and Mississippi, In the construction of reservoirs, dams aud locks at certain points ou these rivers as will render them navigable the entire year for boats of several hundred tons burden. The practicability of this was long ago demonstrated, and the cost, considering what benefit it would afford the country, would be inconsiderable. All that is necessary is for the members of Congress who represent the constituencies Interested In the navigation of these rivers to refuse to vote for any appropriation bill that does not afford aid for this object, and It will be done. But until something vigorous and decisive of this character Is adopted, petitions and memorials to Congress will avail nothing, but will be treated with silent contempt. We would advise the Western and South-western members of Congress, without distinction of party, to have an early consultation next winter, and put the thing through in the manner indicated.

It has been delayed too long already. Those who voted sixty millions to the Pacific Railroad should uot hesitate to give twenty millions for the benefit of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, the naviga tion of which, for the whole year, is of Infinitely greater importance. THE INTERNATIONALS IK THE UNITED STATES There are probably not many who are aware of the fact that the celebrated In ternatlonal Society, which has created so great a sensation In Europe by Its opposition to all its established governments and all Its established religions and sys tems of society, has an existence In the United States. To this International So ciety is attributed the late revolution made by the Paris worklngmen, who are members of it and governed by Its dlrec tlon, and which revolution for three months bid defiance to the Tuikrs Ad ministration, which only entered the city to find Its leading public buildings ln ruins. A Mr.

Ddrnet, a French refugee, who is the head of the Institu tion, has been interviewed by a reporter of the Boston Pott, as to its strength and objects. He was Informed that there are now eighteen well organized and active Sections ln successful operation In this country, located as follows Twelve ln New York, one ln Washington, two in Chicago, one in St, Louis, one ln San Francisco and one In Boston. They are not limited as to numbers, but are estab lished wherever and whenever the members find it most convenient. The Society was first organized by Dr. Karl Max, a well-known German Re publican scholar, lawyer and political economist, ln 1804.

It Is claimed that It is not a secret society, but that one of Its fundamental principles Is the utter repudiation of all secret societies as detrimental to the best conditions of peace and harmony. The main idea of the Society is to have but a single country of the whole world, with but one Interest and one They would abolish, as obstructions to this result, all standing armies and all frontiers, and have a fusion of the people. It makes one smile to read of such a visionary and utterly impossible scheme, and wonder how it could ever find a lodgment in the head of an intelligent man. Mr. Dornky confessed that it would take time to accomplish this result, and added: Tor the present we content ourselves with abolishing the frontiers aq far as trade Is concerned.

Thus placing within the reach of all classes tbe comforts of life at reasonable prices, and enabling them to buy their goods where they ean get them cheapest without being obliged to feed tbe pockets of monopolists." In other words, the Internationals are for free trade, and In that respect they will find the Democracy largely sympathizing with them. There la much sense in the following: "High tarins give power to capitalists and monopolies and enables money to take advantage of the necessities of the poor, and in tbe end control elections and legislation. This power in America must be wrested from the bands of capitalists, just as it is being wrested from monarchies in Europe, and this work the Internationals must do, working through some political organization. The agitation of laa Labor Reform party, though wrong In many of its principles, is doing a good work. Had it not been for that the Republican party, as rotten as it is, would have been ten times as rotten." The Society is working through Sections, pamphlets and the press.

It has the sympathy of twenty papers printed In nine different languages. Upon the cards of membership of the Society are these words: "Tbe emancipation of the working classes must be accomplished by the working classes themselves. The struggle for their emancipation means a struggle for equal rights and duties and the abolition of all class rule. Tbe economical subjection of themanoflabortothe monopolizer of the means of labor lies at tbe bottom of aervi tude In all its forms of social misery, mental degradation, and political dependence. Tbe economical emancipation of tbe working classes is.

therefor, the great end to which every political movement ought to be subordinate as a means. "All efforts aiming at that great end have hitherto failed from want of solidity between the manifold divisions of laltor in each country, and from the absence of a fraternal bond of union between tbe working classes of different countries. The emancipation of labor Is neither a local nor a national, but a social problem, embracing all countries in which modern society exists, and depending for it solution on the concurrence, practical and theoretical, of tbe most advanced countries." Though of some of Its extreme and impossible doctrines It will be purged, there is much ln this Society that will be seized bold of by politicians and become Issues ln our elections. It Is the nucleus of ttw great Labor ami Woiklngrea's by ani unlcw. we ar greatly mis-1 taion k.ii mlo-htv nolltlcal nower In taken, wield a mighty political power ln this country.

Wendell PuaLirs and Bkn Bctlek are leaders of the Interna tionals in Massachusetts. The amiable and Innocent Boutwell, Secretary of the Treasury, in his Boston speech, admits: "Of the 130 odd steamships once sailing from our porta on the Atlantic not one sails underthe American flag, neither Is sny steamship building for us In this country or England. It is a humiliating net Great Britain is taking possession of the shlp-bulldlng of the world and. threatens our South American commerce also." The cause of this Is our high tariff upon iron, copper, timber and cordage, the materials of which ships are constructed. "Nevertheless," says Honorable Georoe, "It will not do to remove these duties, although some relief might be obtained by It." He suggests, however, that "some relief might be afforded by refunding to shipbuilders the duties that might be paid on English Iron imported for shlp-bulldlng, or enabling them to procure American iron as cheaply as it can be got abroad." This would be a confession of the mischievous effects of the tariff so far as shipbuilding was concerned, while keeping up the mischief on other Industries.

It Is stated that the editor of the 8t Anthony (Minnesota) made the grave charge of bribery against Gov ernor Acstin, of that State, Is utterly unable, in the libel suit brought against him by the Governor, to prove It. If this is so, the Democrat has been guilty of a very silly and very reprehensible act( Tbe press has no right to Indulge In accusations of so serious a character without having something at hand to back it, and if it does it can not complain of serious consequences. lITOKLALNOTES. The Circlevllle Herald makes a hideous charge against a prominent ex-corresond-ent In Washington, which It would be well for that gentleman to answer. the live great men of this country are under a cloud jnst now Grant, Brioham Young, Doss Tweed, Jim Fisk and Donn 1 IATT.

Brigham Youno Is evidently making for tbe Facifio coast; but as be is said to be accompanied by a hundred armed men, this can scarcely be considered a Pacific slope. Tub: stench of corruption and jobbery hangs so thick around the Tlme-Chronlcle establishment that some of the nice people who infest It bave lost their discrinilaating sense of smell. It la Just as natural that tbey should Impugn our motives ln the selection of oar Presidential candidate as that the steed should smell of the stable. Wk see it stated that a venture into a new field of daily journalism will soon be made by an Austrian publisher, who will issue a daily paper, tbe entire contents of which will consist of extracts from standard authors and advertisements. We don't know how such an experiment would work in Austria, but It baa been proven a success in this country.

Tbe attention of G. Harding, of Indianapolis, is called to this fact. The movement In behalf of Colonel Scorr for the Presidency is beginning to take hold, as It were. The first response came yesterday In the shape of the following telegram from a prominent politician of Pennsylvania: "PiTTssrao, November 1, 1671. 'To the Editor of th Enqulren "Pennsylvania responds to the sentiment of the organ of the Democracy of Ohio for Thomas A.

Scott for President. Let the dunce begin." The lecture business promises to be somewhat overdone this winter. In addition to the usual array of stale New England talent, George Alfred Townsexd, and a half dozen Maodalens, reformed and trained by the great Washington reformer, Mrs. Spencer, will take the fleld with the beginning of cold weather. Town-skxd, whose father was a clergyman, is going to lecture in behalf of Brioham Yolxg and polygamy.

Mr. Horace Maynard, who hasn't boon very particular of late years in regard to the kind of company which he kept, has written to "Bald Eagle" Stokes, informing him that he will stand by him In his troubles to the bitter end. If any of the descendants of the celebrated tribe of Nar-ragansett Indians are alive, they will be gratified by this display of ancestral blood. If somebody eould be found to stand by Maynard now, Stokes' chances would be improved. Olb speculative President has sold bis Interest In tbe celebrated Seneca stone quarry.

-He bung on to the thing until the scandal became too warm for him, and then he let go. We feet sorry for Grant. He and his partners were Just about getting the Seneca Into a shape which would make it profitable. We would like to wager, though, that If Seneca stone enters largely Into the composition of public buildings in Washington within the next four years, Ulysses will not be loser. The Dally Ledger, a Democratic paper published at Louisville, which Is understood to be In favor of either Wade Hampton, Alex.

U. Stephens or the Cardiff Giant for President, heads a telegram announcing our nomination of Colonel Scott as follows: "All Abcard the Compromise Cars Another Patent President Factory Started Tom Scott's Last Achievement." We wouldn't be at all surprised now if this orthodox yearling would question our Democracy. Wichnd about lost sight of our old friend.

In view of these facts, says the Chicago Pott, it will neither he Irreverent nor incorrect to dub this gentleman a moral mitrailleuse, rather than a big gun of the Church. A fikm of Boston boot and shoe-makers, conspicuous for their loyalty and devotion to codfish, have just been headed off Jn what may be termed a square-toed plan for making money.

In order to push their trade in tbe South they invented a sort of a square-toed boot, on leg of which was Imprinted the likeness of General B. E. Lee, and this was to go into the general Southern market. A liner boot was then made with the picture of Stose-wall Jackson also imprinted on the bootleg, and this was intended especially for Virginia dealers, The. firm then applied for a patent at the Patent Offioe on their trade mark.

The Examiner decided that the application could not he granted on the ground that these trade marks tended to encourage disloyalty in tbe South. The firm bave taken an appeal to tbe Commissioner.

That popplnjay and brass-buttoned Igno-ramous, Phil.

Biikridan, must have enjoyed himself flnoly during and after the Chicago fire. To find himself In supreme command there must have reminded him of the flush days when he could out-rank a negro boot-black. It Is related of him that Just after the fire a thrifty Chicago landlord was discovered In the innocent amusement of charging seven dollars per day for board. Sheridan went to him and askod hlro if he didn't think he could make money by charging only four dollars a day. Tbe landlord didn't think he would attempt to do ao under the circumstances.

"Well, then," said Die Perry County adveuturer, "by I can run this hotel at four dollars a day and make It pay very handsomely, and if you do not do it, I certainly shall relieve you of the management oi the house. I am responsible, not only to the General Government, but to the municipal authorities of Chicago, who bave delegated to me ln this emergency full powcrsto regulate tbe affairs of the city until such time as the local government shall be able to resume effective control; and I'll be sir, if I'll permit any such outrage tobe perpetrated nnder my responsibility for the affairs of Chicago."

We alluded recently to the pretence In our city of Deeribot, the world-ronovaed Indian runner, aid to hit proposition to run ten Millet in one hour ob the Union Grounds, beating any ten men a mile each, the. while "Deerfoot," alia Lewis Bennett, is a tall, powerfully built half-breed, with countenance mora Indian than Euro peso, and li forty-Are yean old.

Ltit evening as he was passing Hunt's Dining Roomi Detectives Larry Hazan and Joe Cary collared him and took him down to Hauimond-itrset 6Ution-houe, where be was locked np on the easlly-iuttained charge of "suspicion." i It teems that abont three yean ago, whea, during tyor Wilstach'i administration, a German named John Bmldt, a resident of Newport, was murdered at the corner of Fifth and Sycamor street-the affair mating some sensation at the time a man, calling himself Deerfoot was In the city, having just won a hundred-yard race at the Ulllcreek House.
