Mr. Pendloton's votes, opinions and political associations became, in the public mind, of great importance; and that for tho reason that most men, even among' the democrats., knew General McClellan, the candidate on the same ticket for the Presidency, to be a. weak man, of no wall-defined or strongly held opinions, who would inevitably be tho tool of stronger men if he were elected, and! over whom a man like Pendleton would exercise a controlling influence. ; . , (SSO.W.

A hundred men will assert confidently that they understood the subject, yet fifty of them will talk nonsense and the other fifty will advance theories which tho facta utterly fail to support. They will utterly fall to agree with each other, and will contradict themselves Only on one point are they all agreed, and that is, that the engineer is never to be believed, and if the facts of the explosion, as testifie4 to by him, do not agre« with this theory, the man has committed flat perjury. Take the Magnolia disaster. T&e inspectors measure her equalizers, and pronounce them of sufficient area. The boat blows up; fhe engineer swears he had plenty oT water. The inspectors (being in Cincinnati at the time of the explosion) know a great deal better. They prove, too, that the equalizers were not of sufficient area, whereupon they turn upon the engineer with great indignation and revoke his license,because he did not come to them and tell them they were unfit for their position, since they had given a license to a boat whose equalizers were dangerously small. Now who will try the inspectors ? I do not say the Magnolia disaster was not the result of causes as shown by the inspector's report. I think it very likely waa; bat I do say there was no absolute proof that it was so. In fact, the evidence was the other way, and after all it waa a mere conjecture; and so with every explosion that ever has taken place on our rivers.

A correspondent of the Fall River, (Maw.) News writes a letter from Helena, Montana, under date of August 10: BONNELL A ADAMS WHOLBBAU GB0CBR8. WILKES-BARRE, PA "Five eighth* of the voters here are old rebel soldiers, principally guerillas and bushwackers from Missouri and commonly known as ' Pap Price's men/ from their leader, Price, of Missouri. Thro® years ago the United States flag could not fly in Montana, save from a few Government posts, and the man who avowed himself a Union man or a Yankee was shot like a dog. The Rebel flag waved over s(oreD saloon and cabin, and was flaunted by drunken demons whenever a politic*] procession appear, ed on the streets. Election day was the hottest of the season; the sun beat fiercely down upon the dusty street, and the miscellaneous crowd who jostled one another in their attempts to distribute tickets or persuade a voter, were drenched with perspiration and foal with dust, A docen whisky shope la the immediate vicinity were thronged with thirsty freemen, anCf before noon there were " drunks * enough to pay the expenses of a Massachusetts Police Court for six months. Fights, of course, were innumerable, and it happened* in all but one oase that the Rebel Democracy were pretty roughly handled. About noon, a long, lank, whiskysoaked Missourian came up to the polls with fight written on his countenance. ' Hillo,' said he, I'm the man! show me a — nigger lover, and let me chaw him up.' He had hardly uttered the words before he found one in the shape of a Federal Major, who planted his fist on his nose, deposited him in the gutter, performed a war dance on his ribs, and would have killed him had not the crowd rushed in and soperated them. I saw twenty fights of this kind, and many'men who came to the polls with decent looking faces, went home, in the language of this country, 'with a head on 'em like a pizened pup.' Strange to say, nobody was killed, though pistols were drawn several times, and there was probably bot a man there who did not have his hand on that indispensible article two-thirds of the time. Shcoting would have taken place in two instances, only that the crowd was so thick that men were afraid of hurting their friends. I saw the United States Marshal of the Territory, Gen. H , spring from his horse and defy three foul-mouthed aeoundrela to meet him* But they knew him to be a dead shot, and skill, ful enough to throw a knife 30 feet and drive it through a man's body,and declined to dismount. I also saw an ex-«apUinof New York Volunteers challenge a gambler and cut-throat, who calls himaelf the "King Bee" of Helena, to fight him, then and there, with fists, knives, pistols, or anything he choose, but Mr. Gambler sneaked off amid the jeers of the crowd. I could fill a column with such scones. But parties had brass bands in wagons to wake up vo. ters, few moments they would bo brought to the polls to cheer the hearts of the faithful there. The (Democratic band played "Dixie," the "Bonnie Blue Flag," and "Maryland," and the Rebel yell which arose at these strains was indeed startling. Men shouted, screamed, danced and sung, and hugged one another, and even rolled in the dust in their excitement. An old soldier who stood by me said, "It's the same old yell; I beard it at Gettysburg and Antietam." June 25, '88—ly. C. B. VTOIGHT. »• e harbinotox.

No doubt this belief had much to do with the overwhelming defeat which befell tho ticket. People who beliered MeClellan to be harmless and right-minded, feared Pendleton. Voters who had no fault to find with McClellan'a letter of acceptance, yet saw that the more positive opinions of Pendleton would rule the council* of so weak a man as hia principal. Is not precisely the same danger before the country now in ease of the election of Seymour ? Mr. Seymour is, as every body knows, a plausible and well-meaning, but very weak man. Left alone,he might do little harm. Indeed, it may be said that he would try, if he were independent, to please everybody. with Blair behind him; with Blair ready to take hia -place if he ebdtfld fall HI, or die, as other Presidents have died, the case would be different; and the shrewd southern politicians, having constructed a platform directly antagonistic to Mr. Seymour's expressed opinions, did not hesitate to accept him—failing to carry Pendleton—when they were able to put Blair on the ticket with him.

Moreover, those who know General Blair best declare unhesitatingly that he is the man to carry out his programme. He is a very different man from Mr. Seymour. He does not vacillate; there isabont him no hesitation he has no scruples; he is ambitious, determined, selfwilled precisely the timber from which revolutionists are made. The proof that boiler explosions are not understood lies in the fact that boilers can not bo blown up at will. An engineer who should go to work to blow up a boiler would probably only succeed in making it leak badly. And until we are able to explode boilers with as much certainty as engineers explode a mine,it cannot be said that we understand the subject If the Government, then can spare time and money to dp something for commerce, let them appoint a board of educated engineers, and, giving them a score or two of boilers with self-firing apparatus, allow them to experiment until they have discovered the exact conditions under which boilers will explode. Then, and not until then, will we have a reasonable assurance that the immense loss from this cause can be prevented, and, instead of a set of laws based on guesswork, wo shall Kate it ib our power to strike the evil in a practical way, according to tho demonstrations of scientific men.

Having procured a light, he looked down at the spur with the greatest astonishment. " Sir, I pronounce tho story of General Grant's intemperance a falshood 1 I have known him since the conlmencement of the war. Our relations while cooperating on the Mississippi were intimate. They were equally intimate on Hampton Roads on the James River, and Potomac. They have been so since the war, both in Washington and Annapolis. I have shared his hospitality, and he has accepted mine. I have met him under all circumstances of fatigue and of festivity ,in sunshine and in storm, in despondency and iu danger, and have had every opportunity of learning his habits aqd knowing his conduct; and I say that, during the whole period of my acquaintanceship with him, 1 have never known him to taste, nor have I ever heard of his touching intoxicating liquors of any kind, not even wine. In common with all the officers of the army and the navy who had served with General Grant and shared his intimacy, I have been both shocked and outraged in reading and hearing this allegation against him; and had my position been different, and had it not been that my motives might be misunderstood or misrepresented, I would have long ago denounced the slander on General Grant as it deserves. I repeat, General Grant is decidedly a temperate man, in principle and iu practice. You,sir, and those who hear me, may -repeat what I say to you, on my authority as an officer and a man." BAKERIES. "How much have you got?" Life should not, need not, be all fuss and unhappiness. Look always at the brighter side of everything and soon it will be hard to find the darker. Existence is as we make it, and although it is impossible to ltve without some trouble, yet we can make it happier and more peaceful if we strive to do so. To make others happy is to be so ourselves. Opposed to fuss; there may be such fervor in living— such doing with all our might what our hands find to do that the crooked shall be inado straight and the rough places plain; that under the foam we may taste the strong, rich wipe of life, and may learn how good a thing it is to translate the fuss of living into the fact of living well.

In many case* they have ceased to threaten and entered upon the work of murder outright, boldly enteriaf the houses of citisens Who were Union|men during the war, and who are suspected of entertaining Republican feelings now, and murdering them in cold blood. On Saturday night they surrounded Glasgow Williams's honse, and as he would not obey their summons they forced an entrance and killed him in presence of his wife, while she was on her knees, begging them to spare his life. Mr. Williams was a Union soldier during the war, and had proclaimed his intention to vote for his old Commander. After the disguised outlaws had murdered him, still thirsting for Union blood, they went to the cabin of an inoffensive negro who had also served in the Union army, and taking out, hanged him under a tree until he was dead. On Friday night the same miscreants made an attack upon a settlement of Shakers, and wreaked the irrengeance by burning to the ground their large mill and woolen factory. These Shakers, it need not be added, are an inoffensive commnnity, who have always been loyal to the Government. The Rebol Democracy have resolved, if possible, to expel them from Kentucky soil. Their loss by this diabolical incendiarism is over $250,000. Tho Eu-Klux Klan have warned all citizens in this part of Kentucky who were in the Union army that they must quit the State, the penalty of remaining until the day of election being death.

At the ond of that time two of them yielded to drowsiness.—A third soon after fell asleep while riding, tumbled from his saddle and broke his arm. A fourth was attacked by a severe sickness and compelled to retire from the lists.— The fifth held out to the ond, but lost twentyfive pounds of flesh in winning the wager.— Long ago Frederick the Groat and Voltaire made a similar experiment, making use of the same stimulant of strong coffee, but they did not succeed in driving away sleep for more than four days.
