TUB UNITED HEW YORK DESIO

The Hancock ratification meeting in
"New York. Thursday might, was the
most imposing and enthusiastic politi
cal demonstration ever known in that
city-
Union Square was alive with human
beings and all the great thoroughfares
leading to the; Democratic wigwam
resounded with the exultant braves of
two hundred thousand people.
Among the speakers-were some
the most illustrious citizens on the con
tinents There was Thomas F, Bayard,
of Delaware; Beujamiu H. Hill, o
Georgia; Daniel; Dougherty, of Penn
sylvania; Samuel J. Randall, of Penn

Joseph D. Bedle. of New Jersey : K. E

James Gallagher, Connecticut; Henry

L

and aims of the great Democratic party
- of tbB United States. ;
Every mention of Hancock's name
electrified the immense crowd and
evoked the wildest enthusiasm.

We shall ever acknowledge our pro

"The change is startling When it is
"compared with the vote of the State at
"the October election in 1876, when the
"Republicans carried the State by 14,960
"majority. Plainly a good many voters
"in Maine have changed their minds in
"these four years, and the strange turn
"there makes other close States the
"more interesting."
The Concord Register pays a glowing
tribute to Hon. W. M. Bobbins. Allud
ing to his recent speech at Concord the
Register says
"it was the most eloquent and patriotic
speech ever made in this or any other
town in North Carolina. For two
hours, although his audience had been
seated for more than two hours before
he began, he held them in perfect quiet
and the closest attention. While dwel
ling upon the fearful tendencies of the
Repuoiican government 10 centraliza
tion and the great danger of the
destruction of the government of our
fathers, by the Republicans, he became
so eloquent and pathetic that many
strong men wept like children.
A Washington correspondent has
found a prominent Democrat who, al
though a warm advocate of Hancock
and his party is of the opinion that
Democratic success would impair the
credit of the country, and immediately
following the Maine election he rushed
into the market and sold $50,000 of gov
ernment bonds. The name of this
wise and prominent person is discreet
ly withheld from the public, but at the
risk of being considered harsh; with the'
Statesville American's "Bureau of Dem
ocratic Information" in our mind's eye,
we will remark that a correspondent
who rams this sort of stuff down the
public throat on a telegraph wire pugbt

A REPUBLICAN jSIANUFACTURER.
Philadelphia, Sept., 22, 1880.
"The election pfHancock would be
no political revolution' at all. Demo
cratic Congresses were elected in 1874,
in 1876 and 1878 ; a Democratic President
was elected in 1876 by a popular majori
ty of a quarter of a million, and the
Democrats now are in the majority in
both Senate and House. All the legis
lation of the last six years, affecting
both politics and business, the reduc-;
tion and funding of our debt and the
restoration of the South to prosperous
industry, has come froin.i,a.-Te.yolutiori-
ized popular branch of Congress, and

industry and trade have recovered
from the revulsion of 1873, when Re
publican Authority was supreme. In
1876, wHen, Tilden's election was pro
claimed by tire people through the ballot
box, values advanced until the electoral
crime of Louisiana threatened anarchy.
There is now nothing to revolutionize
by the election of Hancock but the
Presidency and that was done four
years ago so far as the people could do
it as the present legislative power is
Democratic and the next Congress is
likely to continue the same suprem
acy.
There is not one scintilla of doubt
that .Conkling's malignant, sectional
speech in New York has rebounded
with terrible effect. We print an edi
torial from the leading commercial pa
per in the United States indicating the
drift of public sentiment.
Our information from Governor Jar-
vis s canvass in the western counties is
highly satisfactory. Our advices are
from perfectly trustworthy sources, and
they convey the assurance that his
campaign has been - a great 'success.
The talk of his being distanced by the
national ticket is preposterous..
The naval demonstration in Turkish
waters is set down for Monday. The
reluctance of the fleet to demonstrate is
becoming almost as marked as the Sul
tan's indifference whether it demon
strates or not; but the .autumn storms
are at hand, and one preliminary squall
has made the fleet painfully aware that
it must demonstrate soon, if at all. -

THE N1RRAGANSETT DISASTER.
Report of tbe Investigating- Inspect
or Both Boat to Blame for tne
Colliaion.
Washington, Sept. 24. The report
of the local inspectors, who investigated
the Stonington-Narragansett disaster,
has been received by the supervising
inspector-general of steam vessels. They
find, after careful review of all the tes
timony and circumstances of the colli
sion, that George F.Nye, master of the
Stonington did, through his pilot, alter
her course for the Narragansett with
out giving proper signals as required;
that he also failed to stop his steamer
without properly locating the Narra
gansett or until proper signals could be
given, answered and understood as re
quired. Upon sighting the Narragan
sett, through carelessness or forgetf ul-
ness, a signal was given to start the
steamer, which, caused the collision.
Upon his own admission, there was
found in Capt. Nye a disposition to to
tally disregard law as far as it relates
to conveyance and transportation of a
greater number of passengers than is
allowed by law and in consequence he
is liable to the penalties prescribed by
law, and his license as master and pilot
would be revoked had it not
already expired by limitation. W. S.
Young, master of the Narragansett,
proceeded irom .New 1 ork without en
gineer's department being in charge of
the chief engineer as required by law.
Upon sighting the Stonington, through
carelessness or excitement, signals were
given to go ahead, thereby contributing
to the collision. After discovering fire
in the upper works of his steamer he
did not use proper means to extinguish
it, and leaving his steamer in a life
boat with his pilot so soon after the
collision, with so many passengers on
board, was entirely at variance with
good judgment and duties and ob
ligations of the master of a steamer.
In consequence of these violations
his license as pilot and inspector has
been revoked. The. Providence and
Stonington Company did not provide
the Narragansett with the compliment
of a liscense for engineers nor the mem
bers of watchmen for her State rooms,
deck and ladies cabins as required, in
conseauence of which they are amena
ble to law as presented in sections 4,478
and 4,500, revised statutes. There was
a failure to keep a correct list' of the
passengers as required by law: and
for which they are also amenable.
