When Tweed was head of the public works, and there being a scarcity of Cro ton water, he advised the board of aldermen to purchase certain lands in Putnam county which would give the right to certain water privileges arising out of lakes Carmil, Gileae and Mahopac. There being little in the city treasury at the time, Tweed offered to put up the money forjthe property on condition that he would be repaid by the city with interest thereon. He now refuses to make the transfer and may refuse to allow the water to be drawn off from these lakes.

Richardson, the great manufactrer of linens, seems to have successfully solved the problem of giving employment to a community of 4,000 persons, whilst at the same time greatly benefiting them by surrounding them with every incentive to temperance and moral restraint.

Mr. Richardson is the owner of 6,000 acres of land at Bessbrook, Ireland, on which are quarries of blue granite and farms that are successfully worked, and in the midst of which is the village of Bessbrook, with the great mill, offices and warehouses of the Bessbrook Spinning company. The village is laid out with streets that are lined with little cottages for workmen, with larger houses for the mill officials, and there also is a beautiful villa occupied by the owner of the vast estate. Every cottage has a door-yard decorated with beautiful flowers, and the property includes a public square to add to its attractiveness. Tnerc arc shops of different kinds for the sale of articles required to meet the wants of the village, but the sale of beer and ardent spirits is forbidden; and there is not a police station in the village, neither is a pawnshop to be found.

The different denominations, of which there are the live together in harmony, and four churches stand in close proximity upon a hill that looks out upon a beautiful landscape with its green fields and undulating surface as far as the distant Newry mountains. The streets of the village are kept scrupulously clean, and the whole aspect of the place is one of extreme neatness. Mr. Richardson is a prominent member of the society of Friends, and is now on a visit to America, and expects to attend a yearly meeting of his society in Indiana.

Mchofaijor December. THE NATIONAL ELECTION, Progress of the Count in South Carolina, Florida and Louisiana. Address of the Northern Democrats in New Orleans. SOUTH CAROLINA. Political matters in this state are badly mixed at present.

On the 27th inst. Gen. Huger with three companies of U. S. troops took possession of the State House.

Admission was refused to the delegation from Edgefield and Laurens, as their certificates were decided invalid by the door-keeper, whereupon the entire Democratic delegation withdrew to the front steps where a protest was publicly read. The Republicans immediately proceeded to organize and elected Mr. E. M. Mackey (colored) speaker, having received 57 out of 59 voles, no Democratic members having yet come into the house.

After the officers were elected the Democrats returned and found Mr. Mackey in the chair. In explanation of these proceedings, it must be remembered that the House, when full, consists of 124 members, and sixty-three being a majority, are a quorum for transaction of business. The Democrats including the nine disputed members from Edgefield and Laurens, have sixty-four members, and the Republicans only sixty when all their members are present. The Democrats claim that sixty-three is the lawful quorum, while the Republicans claim that a majority of the members admitted by the canvassers to be elected, viz: 115, is a quorum, and with their fifty-nine have gone to work.

A dispatch from Columbia, dated Nov. 30th, says the Democratic House took peaceable possession of the State legislature hall at their regular hour of convening, 11 The Republican House entered the hall at noon, the regular hour of meeting. Both speakers were on the stand, Wallace, Democrat, was in and Markey, Republican, at the desk. Debate was progressing. Republican members Hamilton and Meyers denounced the action of the Republican House as illegal and unconstitutional.

Everything was peaceable, and good temper prevailed. Columbia advices of the 18th inst. reports the situation unchanged. Both Houses still in session. FLORIDA.

The board of canvassers met at Tallahasse, Nov. 28. The result of the electoral vote, as read from the face of the returns, shows a majority of 19 for the Republican electors, with Dade county yet to be heard from. There is some trouble about the returns from Baker county. They had a regularly certified copy of the returns from that county, giving a Democratic majority of 94.

This return was regular, and it was thought final. But anew return was produced, signed by the judge and sheriff, but not the county clerk, which by the throwing out of several Democratic precincts give a Republican majority of 41, making a difference of 135 votes. With the first return admitted, Tilden has 115 majority, but both returns are held'subject to future decision. Democrats have two electors by five majority, one by three majority, and the Republicans have one elector by one majority. LOUISIANA.

On the Ist the Returning Board was still receiving testimony in the contested cases. Gov. Wells said the testimony must all be in by 4 on the 2d, when the Board I would go into executive session. Returns from Lafayette, Grant and i Tangiphoa were brought in during the day. Two polls in Lafayette parish, giving 350 Democratic majority, were not found on the consolidated returns; but the vote was obtained from accompanying tally-sheets.

There was a protest with the returns dated the 28th. The vote of the poll in Tangipahoa Parish was missing; and tally-sheets also were absent. Returns of Grant parish received. The United States supervisor after appointing a commissioner of election, left the parish before the election, notwithstanding the protest of both Republicans and Democrats. The election was held, however, under the auspices of Democratic and Republican United States Supervisors with the following result: Hayes, 305; Tilden, 518.

Statements from all the parishes are now in; and the Democratic Committee has obtained official figures of every parish. Returns from Vernon, Franklin and Livingstone parishes were opened and laid over. They vary only a few hundred, due to throwing out of polls. On the Ist inst. the Republican visitors sent a request to the Democrats asking for copies of the depositions in favor of the Democratic electors, in order to submit all the evidence to the President.

The Democrats refused on the grounds that they had no assurance that the whole evidence would be laid before the people of the country. The Democratic committee have issued the following address: New Orleans, December 1, 1876. To the People of the United On our arrival here in casting about for approaches to the officials who control the elections of this state we discovered that they were all ot one political party, that the governor had appointed none but republican supervisors of elections, and that the returning officers, constituting the state board, were of the same political school. Uninfluenced by these inauspicious surroundings, our thoughts and hearts were turned toward the eminent gentlemen who had been selected by the president to be present and see that the board of canvassers made a fair count of the votes actually cast, and on the 14th of November we invited those gentlemen to meet and confer with us. This co-operation was declined, but we nevertheless have reason to believe that to this correspondence may be attributed the invitation to us on the ult.

by the returning board to attend and be present at its meeting as spectators and witnesses of its proceedings; through this courtesy and the services of a competent stenographer we became possessed of all the essential facts delivered on the face of the official papers. We have been furnished with a certified copy of the duplicate statements of votes made by commissioners of election at each place of voting in the state. From these statements it appears that Tilden electors received the following votes, McEnery Wickliffe St. Martins Pache Dnblon Zoy Cobb Cress and the Hayes electors received the following votes, Kellogg Burch Joseph 74 889; Sheldon 74 844; Marks 75.221; Levissee 370: Bunester Jefferson 75,956. The result of the vote for presidential electors, as disclosed on the face of the returns opened by the returning board in our presence, for the Tilden electors is as follows: Mc- Henry St.

Martin Dublon 82- 065; Cobb 81.950; Wickliffe Pach 036; Zoy Cress 82,109. For Hayes electors; Kellogg 77.022; Joseph Marks Bunester 72,27 Burch 76 983; Sheldon Levissee Jefferson 75 390. In most cases the returns opened by the returning board correspond precisely with the certified copies of statements, the commissioners of elections furnished us. The most material question arose from the failure of the supervisors of East Baton Rouge, Tangiphoa and of Orleans to forward the statements of votes from ail the voting places in either respective parishes. In 35 out of the 38 states in the union these figures would be conclusive.

No one would claim that Tilden and Hendricks were not entitled to the electoral vote of the state, but in Louisians, a tribunal has been set up which on former occasons has overthrown the will of the people as expressed at the polls, and for which the power is now claimed in its discretion to change the result of the popular vote ot the recent election. In view, however of the returns, and the facts which should control the returning board, with which we have made ourselves familiar, we have no hesitation in saying that the result shown by the votes actually cast cannot be hanged without a palpable abuse of the letter and spirit of the law governing the returning board, and a manifest perversion of the facts before it. Irregularities have been committed in some instances by officers conducting elecitons and making returns, but they are about as much on one side as the other, and as to intimidation, violence, and other illegal acts preventing a free and fair election, there is evidence on both sides, but not of euch a character as to affect the general result. In most instances, the acts of violence proceeded from law! lessness, as in the case of Henry and Eliza Pinkston, and had no connection with po! litical affairs. It is a significant fact that, in the parishes where it is alleged that voters were kept from the polls by intimidation, the total vote of such parishes was as large as at any time heretofore, and in the whole state is 1,500 above any vote 1 heretofore cast.

An honest and fair vass of the returns, each under the Louisii ana law, cannot materially reduce Tilden majority as shown on the face of the re! turns. (Signed) Jno. M. Palmer, Lyman Trumbull, Wm, Bigler. Gko.
