THE <Tribune> learns that the great Bessemer Steel works at Cleveland are sup­-

THE Chicago and Northwestern railroad has completed its arrangements to push forward its track with the utmost expedition, from Madison to the Wisconsin river.

THK Cincinnati Chrmide inquires, What would the Democratic party do for material to make Congressional candidates of, were it not for the 'disappointed officeseekers who go over to them from their opponents In Ohio the Democracy are running at least five of these renegades— (.'A It V, C'AiMrnKLI., IIUBBBLL, VAN TIIUMP and C'AimvRroiiT. No wonder the faithful, who have borne Ihe burden and heat of the day, grumble at being so often displaced by eleventh-hour inen, who would never have thought of joining the Democratic party but for the hope of getting an oflice.

THK Philadelphia Press is of.the opinion that the great want of the Democratic party is some plausible principle of sucTi gencraj acceptance and application that it may be adopted as the b^sis of a national policy. It has nothing approaching such a principle now, and without it the future promises but an uninterrupted, series of mortifying defeats. Why not unite upon the development theory regarding the origin of species? The theory that man is the outgrowth of the monkgy accords well with Democratic traditions respecting the colored race, and as the masses of the pirrty afe notjpresumad to understand principles, the difficulty of familiarizing the uneducated mind with the evidences upon which it'rests would be no objection. Then what opportunities would be afl'orded the orators! The cultured Cox, of New York, could discourse learnedly upon life germs, natural seleclion, etc., while the shallow-paled, bigvoiced demagogues could continue to harp, as at present, upon whatever social prejudice might happen-to prevail at the time and place, and appear to find warrant in the text of this theory. By all means lot the Democracy endorse Dar win.

THK most important service that Republicans in this 'Distrit, can perform at the approaching election, is to see to it that no ballot-box, in any precinct, is left unwatched'for a single minute, from the time when the voting begins until the last vote is counted out and the record made up.

We know that neither Mr. VOOIUIEES, nor the leaders of his party in many localities, would hesitate to secure his continuance in Congress by any means. Ballot-boxes have been stuffed in his interest heretofore, and will be again if a chance is offered, lie and his friends know that his case is desperate that his election, by fair and legal means, is among the remotest of possibilities and so sure as an opportunity is presented to trifle with the ballot-boxes and poll-lists, fra"ud will be attempted. Experience showsthat Democratic frauds are not confined t® New York, where that party, in some districts, polls more votes than the censustaker can find men, women, snd childrenThere are Democratic officials, in this District, who are capable of any act that may be deemed necessary to keep VOORHKES in Congress. There must be the utmost vigilance to prevent fradulent voting and to guard against stuffing.

TIKK. SCHENCK and Lew Campbell have arranged to meet in joint discussion at eight places in the Third Ohio District. The first meeting is to be held at Franklin, Warren county, Sept. 24. In his speech at Dayton, the other evening, Gen. Sehenck tiled this center shot at the "Butler Pony," as Campbell is familiarly calfcd by the Yaliandighammers. The General said: 'The Republicans are denounced as a party that has failed in its duty and wronged- the country try, and among those who thus condemn lis, it seems not a little strange to find out old political associates. Col. Campbell says the party has left him, while he has gone straight on. Such a remark under the circumstances recalled the anecdote of an old Indian he had heard of, who, becoming full of tre water,' wandered otY one day among ihe hazel bushes Wahogawah, which being interpreted means" Baulking Ponv. 'You are lost, are you not?' said a white man who found him in his bewildeftnent. 'No lost,' replied he,'wigwam lost: Indian here.'"

Maine Election.

The Indianapolis Nem, the organ of the Marion conn!y "Reformers," makes this allusion to, the Accent election in ... ,r Maine:

The reduction of the Republican majority in Maine from fourteen thousand last year to about five thousand, is a significant sign, no matter how lightly nome papers may treat it. There was no division in the party to cau.-e so great a change, and it can only be ascribed to the want of a pronounced and- decided policy, which lists characterized the party utterances all over Ihe country.'

If the

Keirn

were disposed to. treat the

subject fairly, it won Id find the Republi can majority "this year not "about five thousand," but almost nine thousand*, and it would also find cause to wonder how, under all the circumstance', the Republicans of the Pine Tree State were able to maV.e half so good a showing. The New York

Tribune

states the result

and attending circumstance* very cleanlyand correctly in the following article, which we reproduce a-) very significant and encouraging in view of the near approach »f our own election:

We prejudged the. llepublican.4 .of Maine as equal to anything, including the beating of themselves but that seems beyond their strength

They can hardly repeat the attempt under more favorable auspices than this year. In the first place, Gen. Chamberlain, their present Governor, is not a stringent Prohibitioniit, so tho-te whp are saw fit to run a Temperance candidi date agaiiist hiiii lasl year, and thus draw off4,743 v-tes fropi Chamberlain. This year, the Republican candidate is Sidney PeHia.m, a thorough Prohibitionist Irom the start, who was nominated by a small majority ovee Gen. Hersey, who is very popular in his section .and with the Union soldiers everywhere, and whose defeat in the nomination lias been savage* ly resented at the polls. In the 1st land closest) Congress District, the Hon. John Lynch's re-election was opposed on the 'assumption that he his had three terms already, and that York county ought to have her "turn" this time. His opponent, W. P. Haines, is very rich and popular, resides in York county, and was warmly supported by one of its Republican journals. This is one of the districts counted on to give the Sham Democracy the next House but that was a miscount, and not one of that commoner sort'whereby they largely profit.

As if there were not already distractions enough, Gen. Chamberlain was brought forward as a candidate for the U. S. Senate, in place of the Hon. Lot M. Morrill, whose term expires with the present Congress, and the Democrats in each city and several townships) ran candidates for the Legislature pledged to supprfrt Chamberlain, and thus secured the votes of the Chambertain Republicans. Many Republican town have thus been carried, not only on the Legislative but also on the State and Congress tickets.

With these side winds to help_ them, the adversary should have carried, the State, or at Iffast Lynch's district but they have in fact accomplished nothing that will avail them." They have simply made a, delusive exhibition of factitious strength, which will melt into thin air at the approach of a presidential contest. hi

PRUSSIA offers a spectacle to the world os a splendid,military power, but there are a few little incidents which explain the whole thing. There are five members of the Ministry who have male children, and these five have sent into the army eleven sons, six of whom are privates or non-commissioned officers. Patriotism never ran higher in this country, even in our greatest straits.

IGNATIUS DONNELLY*, who distinguished himself, a year or two ago, by the most indecent hour's talk tlmt ever disgraced the Hall of Representatives, after a guerilla life of bolts and quarrels, has gone at last to his own place.

SEVERAL German papers have mentioned instances of six and seven brothers serving simultaneously in the present, war$ but from Posen, in the year 1.8C6, eight brothers of the Treskow-Radojewo family fought under the Prussian standards, and at this moment there are nine of them in the German army. It is only proper to mention that when so many members of a single family are in active service at the same time, it is almost always the case that some of them are vol unteers. "-f

In THE very accurate table prepared by the Democracy, showing the ease with they could gain a majority in the next Congress, tjiey assigned a gain of one for the State of Maine. The election has just taken place, and they not only have rtot gained the one, but have lost everything else on tjl their tickets. Appearances indicate an equal tabular success for them in all the States and if they should achieve it, the majority in the oext Congress will stand exactly as it does now. Probably, however, as the Southern rebels are to vote, they will make some small gains. The element is there to do it, and it is the straight kind,

SARATOGA, we read, has had 100,000 visitors this summer Cape May, 150,000 Atlantic City, 150,000 Long Branch, 200,000 and Newport, about 100,000.— makes a total of 700,000 visitors at the five watering places. Counting those at other resorts, the number would be about a round million—one in forty of the whole people visiting the watering places, s*ying nothing about the number that went to Europe. Verily.there is a large proportion of our people who have leisure time for, besides these pleasureseekers, think of the number of idlers who remained at home, men and women more numerously the women. Truly, if all were set at work, there would be less ennui, less free-love, and more of virtue and'happiness.

THE law modifying Ihe stamp duty on receipts, Gtc., goes into effect Oct. 1, and relieves from stamp duty "receipts for any sum of money, or for the payment of any debt also, "promissory notes for less sum than one hundred dollars." It also provides that "no stamp shall be required upon the transferor assignment of a mortgage where it or the instrument it securcs has been once duly stamped."

THE pious Mayor of Gotham, disliking the way in which United States officers take the census, by which repeaters are counted only once, indited and forwarded an epistle to Washington to ask that it be taken in his way, by which the registered voters outnumber the entire population in strong Democratic wards. Su perinlendent Walker acknowledged the important bearing of the question upon Mr. Hall's political future, but- insisted on the great mathematical fact once one is one, and that Paudeen O'Rafferty could only have one line in the census book.

WE made mention yesterday of the shooting, at Greenville, of a German, whose name is unknown, by a man named Edwards. The German had stolen Edwards' watch, and being overtaken by Edwards, acknowledged the theft and gave up the watch. He then started to make his escape, when Edwards fired upon him. The ball struck the unfortunate man between the shoulder blade and back bone, inflicting a terrible wound. The wounded man was not expected to recover this morning.— <N. A. Ledger>.

Vashl»wne in State ©r Siege—The Woes of a Diplomat—Having a Hard Time.

From the London Telcjrraph.] ''1' What can you expect when we are' in the shadow "f a siege? Tlie American Minister is likewise having a hard time of it. Mr. Washburne has not been troubled, it is true, to anv great extent with the care of plate and valuables foe his fellow-countrymen, for the. Americans in Paris seem to have made up their minds to take things as they come, and with philosophic coolness.

I have not yet heard of. any American who has been arrested ns a "Prussian: spy"—a fate which, in the city or the provinces, has.befallen about "ten out of every dozen Englishmen I have met here. Moreover, onr American cousins, whfen travefing in Europe, do ndt habitually incumber themselves with lieavy services of plate and as for their.diamonds—with which they sire as a" rule plentifully supplied—the gentlemen put .hem into their waistcoat pockets and he ladies pop them into their chignons' when times look ugly, and so everything' irt very nice and comfortable.

The trouble with the American Legation is, that the Prussians domiciled in Paris are under United States protection and whenerer an unhappy German gets lobbed by a gang of drunken rowdies, or collated by a zealous Sergen de ville, or denounced by a patriotic milk-woman oir public-npirited cook-maid, for such,high and mighty crimes as wearing spectacles with tortoise-shi. 1 rims, carrying a pock-et-handkerchief in the crown of his hat, or asking his way to the Rue Neuve des Pettis Champ*, the supposed "Prussian spy" naturally asks tiLbe conducted to the American Legation, there to prove by the exhibition ofiiis papers that he is a perfectly inoffensive and law-abiding Teuton.

On Saturday morning no fewer than eighteen persons who had been arrested by the police, or by excited amateurs, were brought at one time to the United States Minister's and in almost every case it was proved that a mistake had been made, and that the prisoner was the victim of popular passion, prejudice and frenzied terror—rank weeds which can always be warranted to flourish in the shadow of a siege.

Three Persons Shot Near Milroy, in Rush County—The Murderer Commits Suicide by Blowing Out His

Co

From the Sentinel, 19th.) On Friday night last Satan seems to have been let loose in the county of Rush, for besides a number of fights on the cars and at the depot in Rushville, a most bloody effort was made by a young man by the name of Long to kill a number of persons. It seems that Long, in other days, had paid his addresses to a Miss Winship, the daughter of Mr. Jesse Winship, who lives on a farm near the village of Milroy. He had made proposals of marriage, but was rejected through the influence of the mother. The daughter subsequently married Mr. Jackman, and the newly married couple were living in the neighborhood. On last Friday night Long came to the residence of Jackman, and, giving a false name, wanted admittance. The family, fearing there was no good will in his request, refused his entrance. Finding he was determined to break in, Jackman and his wife ran over to Mr. William Rice's, near by. Rice and Jackman then returned to Jackman's residence, and, seeing no one, entered the house and got down the rifle, which they began to load, when Long rushed in on them with a revolver, and firing, shot Jackman through the arm. Then turning, to Rice, he said: "You are Jackman's friend, are you? D—n you, I will kill you." He fired, and shot Rice through the neck, and, seeing him fall, he then escaped. But his devilish work was not yet done. He went over to Jesse Winship's, and, rousing up the family, he shot Mrs. Winship and then left. Going home to his father's, he told them what he had done, and then turning his revolver to his head, he blew out his own brains. We were not able to learn the exact nature of all the wounds, but it was thought very doubtful whether Mrs. Winship or Rice would survive. The whole country is wild with excitement, and hundreds are running to see the wounded and to learn the particulars of the terrible affair.

The families are all of the first respectability, and the Winship family is among the wealthiest of the county. It was well that the murderer was his own executioner, for he could not have lived in the county twenty-four hours. ———

Murder of Two Men at Martinsville. From the Indianapolis Journal 19th.] A horrible double-murder was perpetrated by Captain Carpenter, at Martinsville, on Friday night last, by which Oliver Deming, of Rushville, lately of this city, and Buck Warner of Martinsville, lost their lives. The affair was so horrible and such an occurrence so rare in that quiet town, that the populace are very much excited over it. From Mr. Robert Longfellow, of this city, who was an eye witness, we learn the following particulars:

Late in the evening Deming, Warner, a Mr. Clutch and Longfellow were sitting in a drug store, when it was proposed to go over to Miller's saloon and take a drink. This was agreed to, and the party proceeded thither. After drinking two or three times they were joined by Captain Carpenter and two or three other men. After taking another drink Mr. Miller shut up the saloon. The party were standing on the sidewalk, when Carpenter pulled out a key and remarked: "Boys, let's have a drink. I've got a key to a saloon." (He was tending bar for one Webb.) Warner and Clutch, who were acquainted, went up to him and taking hold of him said: "Yes, Cap., let's go have a drink." Carpenter broke away from them, and ran as fast as he could towards his saloon, which was about fifteen rods off. The party followed Carpenter, supposing that he was going to open the saloon. When within about five rods of the saloon he turned and fired four shots. The first one narrowly missed Mr. Clutch, the second and third lodged in the right breast and shoulder of Deming, and the fourth in the right breast of Warner, the wound being within an eighth of an inch of the place where Deming was struck. Deming died almost immediately, but Warner lingered until Saturday afternoon. An inquest was

over the body of Deming, bnt the verdict of the jury we have not heard. After shooting, Carpenter went to the saloon, armed himself afresh and attempted to escape. About 3 o'clock Saturday morning he returned, and after sleeping a couple of hours was awakened by Mr. Webb. He told Webb what had occurred,, and said if the Marshal or Sheriff was sent to the room he would give himself up. One of the authorities mentioned was sent for and he did give himself up. Mr. Longfellow informs us, however, that by some arrangement he did not understand, Carpenter was unrestrained Saturday afternoon.

After the Coroner's inquest, Mr. Longfellow, who was working with Mr. Deming, brought the body to this city, where some friends from Rushville met it and took it there for burial.

Parallels and Contrasts. History repeats itself with Only such variations as time and new elements introduce and at the moment when the Second Bonaparte who* lias sat upon the throne of France has tumbled headlong from it, we may turn aside to consider the points of -resemblance and contrast I elween this fall and that of Napoleon the Great. When the latter had returii ed from Elba it was not more than month after he left Paris before he was flying, a prospective prisoner, from Waterloo and the force'that pursued-him and marchcd into Paris was that of the Prussians thoroughly aroused to the idea of German unity* But the Europe of that day was far different from that of to-day. The hand on the dial of Democracy still marked early morning. The Congress of Vienna placed the worn out Bouibons upon the throne, and the .Holy Alliance re-established patriarchal despotism. With the great Emperor the Empire had been.

Now the parallel of to-day is quite rnan-r ifest the contrast almost as much so. The Empire of Napoleon III. was, he said,

defeat of Sedan than through Fren satisfaction. We begin to think", in the midst of our astonishment, that he must have seen the humiliating alternative that his sudden declaration of war was the result of necessity and that although hehoped to beat the Prussians, he felt that unless he did his dynasty was at an end, and that Paris was no place for him when the

decheame

should come. In short, in

the light of the surprising events of the last few days, the case seems to have been, months ago, more desperate than the world had any idea of.

In 1815 the Bourbons came back. No one wants them now. The Orleans family have but few adherents. The Republicans have a clear field for a renewed experiment, and if the fall of the present Emperor bears a similitude to that of his Uncle, the crisis, as far as France is concerned, finds a nearer parallel in the revolution of 1790, and tlie following years. Again a declared Republic is beleaguered by German enemies^ Again there are bitter rivalries in Paris, and great agitation. EAernal and internal affairs act and react, and the danger is great that fury and panic may conspire to bring back the horrors of the great revolution. As at the fall of the First Napoleon, there are now an Empress and an Imperial Prince but the former is a truer woman than the Austrian who deserted her hus band, and the latter, let us hope, will have a better fate than the King of Rome, who was slowly murdered in soul and body because he was his fathers son. and in spite of being tlie son of his mother.—

BRIGHT HOPES OF SPEEDY

Prussians Willing to Treat with a Responsible Government.

Advices from Paris to Sunday evening have the following: Parisians made reconoissance near Joinville to-day.

An-engagement occurred with French sharpshooters posted on .the opposite bank, of the Marne, in which the Prussians'were defeated and driven off at midnight.

Sharp firing hfts been heard near Comat for two hours. Versailles has-been occnpied by Ger-man-Uhlans. The chateau which' serve* aa a French ambnlanue it- is thought would be protected.

QJtrLOMATIC MOVEMENT.

The Constitutiouel gives the following history of the late diplomatic movement. England took the initiative, charging the Prussian Minister at London with certain propositions- The Minister transmitted these to the headquarters of King William. Some dnys pas.-ed without an answer. Lord'Lyons, English Minister to France, then interposed, after which the answer of King William reached London. The answer was that whereas, tlie Great Powers did not succeed in preventing France frqm declaring war against Prussia, the latter now demands her right to treat directly with France for peacc, but as France has no regular Government, Prussia can have no certainty that the conditions of any treaty can be fulfilled. To settle this point Jules Favre himself has gone, to King William's headquarters.

PEACE REPORT.

TOURS, Sept. 20—It is reported, as the result of the interview between Jules Favre and King William, that the hope of a speedy peace is not abandoned. Prussia is not disposed to consent to an arm istice. If there is to be peace at allj must be settled at once. "in" -or n1*® y.
