THAT TAMMANY JH;i.TI(;, The thundering acclaim of Taniiuunv, thousands strong, that turned uuL to greet Senator Hill in New York Tuesday night must have reached the cars of the managers of the Republican campaign all over the country and s;nt the cold chills playing up and down their spines to the exclusion of all hope of carrwuj; New York State. There lias never lueu such an outpouring of the I'cmocracy in this country. No sentiment pionoui'.ctd bj-Senator Hill was accorded heartier praise than this: "What shall I say of the IHinocialic candidates, Cleveland and Stevenson'' They both answerthejcll'cisoniaustand ard of fitness; both have been satislactn rilv tested in the public service, and both represent the cherished principles ol our party in this campaign, and arc en titled to your suffrages. Hx-Prcsidcnt Cleveland needs no culocy at niv hards. His life and public services are faraibar to the people. His admiiiislniLioii iliu nified, honest f nd able has s.ilelv with stood popular criticism; has pascd into history, and retlccts credit upon the countrj'. His reelection will not oulv be a personal triumph, but it will also be a vindication of our principles ami the ti i umph of the Pcmocratic parlv." This is hearty praise and eveiv Tain many man present knew it was descried. We feel now more than ever certain that New York City will give an immense vote for Cleveland. A KEIU III. If AN THUU. The Republicans ol Charlotte admit that the elections in that citv have been fair, that the judges have been cipilly di vided be' ween the two .arties, f;ivin.n each party an equal opportunity for a free ballot and a fair count. Neverthe less, with no pretext that the situation demands any change fro, a i. methods, "the postmaster of tli.u city," says the Observer, "and a hail cracked individual who has made himself con spicuous as a Prohibition zealot, are engaged in KCtliiu; up petitions lor the appointment of Federal supervisors ol election for this county." What docs this mean? The uliseiver answers ; "It is an attempt to set in uiotiou the machinery of the I'nited Stales govern ment for the intimidation ot the voters. It is proposed to crowd the pells with government overscets who shall watch every action of every Democratic voter, in the hope of causing such apprehension of some charge Kii';,' laid against ll.ein that thev will refrain Irani voting rather than take the chance of arrest, ti ial and probable imprisonment. It is anattcmpt to overawe timid Democrats, I'mier pretence of seeking to protect the sanctity of the ballot, it is being sought to de prive men of thai medium ol expressing their will." But this act of the Republicans ot Charlotte means more than this. It means, in large part, a distrust of the people by the Republican party whose leaders see its ranks dwindling daily by the secession of some of its best men leaders like Cresham and MacYcagh. It means that the attempt wiil be made to keep in powcra party by compulsion IV m outside sources violating the principle of home rule am! more intcncreucc in home affairs by Folcrtil ofiioUl v'.jh every interest it is, ai:d w ill be, to keep Democrats out of cilice and sec that every Republican is got to the polls and given an opportunity to vote. It is pro posing intimidation ap-d coercion where neither is needed or has any place. We want no force bill, little or big, in North Carolina. WINDY CITY MA.NMilKit From the accounts in the Chicago I Icr ald, it appears that the lending feature of the dedicatory ceremonies in the Windy City was the brutality of the po lice. It has never been exceeded in this country and probably not in the world. It was carried to ;m extent almost past belief, for most of it was done under the eyes of men, Vice-President Morton for one, whose mere word must have stop ped it. Here is nn account of one inci dent of a thousand : "A reporter for the Herald saw the police frequently lav their hands against the breasts of well dressed women and exert their main strength to push them backward. This last feat seemed to be decidedly popular with the men and it was repeated almost numberless times. Conspicuous among the blue coats was a young man wearing the unilorm of the Sheridan Guards. He committed the same offence half a dozen times. A well dressed woman, not more than twenty years old, stood on the curb watching one of the societies pass. The fellow walked up lo the spot, deliberately put his dirtv hand against her at a point halfway between her throat and waist and pushed her slightly backward. The young woman's face grew crimson and sheened out: 'You miserable scoun drel, what clo you mean ?' The fellow replied: 'Shut up or I'll throw you out.' Two police officers saw the as sault and were near enough to have heard the woman's protest and the re ply of the insulter, but they did noth ing." Tall buildings and fine architecture cannot atone for such outrageous treat ment of women as this. The superintend ent of police should not have been al lowed to remain in office a day alter these facts were known to the Mayor. We can in no more striking way get a clear idea of the terrible offensiveness of this treatment than by remembering that there is probably no redress for the men tal and physical injury hundreds of per sons suffered that day, and by reflecting that a government that would not re sent such insults from a foreign power would not live longer than till next election. The brutish beating, the ob scenity and the insults were totally un necessary. Chicago had the example of the police of New York before it when the big; parade of a few days earlier was managed without raising a club. It was imply the brutish natures of the Chicago police coming out at a time when com mon decency would have suggested the greatest possible consideration. Chicago must mend its manners. THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH. The Tricuiiial convention of the Episco pal church has just closed its session at Baltimore. From the report on the state of the church, presented by the Rev. Dr. George S. Cameron, we make the following extracts: After mentioning the six bishops who have died since last convention and the ten who have been consecrated, it sums up the condition of the church in facts and figures as follows: Bishops 72; priests, o,S0."; deacons, 3Ui; whole num ber of clergy, l-,-"0; candidates for holy orders, oSJ; ordinations ol deacons and priests, SH'J; lav readers, l.NOli; bap tisms since last convention, 1S3.310; coufn illations, lL'o.TelS; communicants added, ll.'.H.Vi; communicants lost by death, 2;i,3oS; present nuniler commun icants, ol.),2.")tl; marriages, 41),l,.i;!; fun erals, 'Jii,l.'.i.!; number of lainihcs, 'JO'eV '.H7; Sunday school teachers, J,S1.,S; Sunday schorl pupils, ;!'.",;!"!; pu pils in parish schools, 10,-4-t;; church edifices, l.oSl, ol which there are free chinches and chapels, U.-'Sl; rectories, l,o''l; chinch hospitals, 711; .aphanat.cs, 411; koines, ("'.'; academic institutions, 11".'; collegiate institutions, lo; thcologkal institutions, L'O; other institutions, 7.!; conti iluitions, diocesan, $.'!.'.'0.-.,:5S U-t; parochial, SH.'i.tiaoJSti.. ."; beyond the diocese, Slf, 7150, SoS. 7-1 ; aggregate, $ lil.Tiriti.o'.'ll.Tl). "flic proortion ot free ehurehes to those otherwise supported has increased Irom -4 1 5 per cent, to 411 percent. Time has been no marked increase in the num ber of rectories from 1,1.S to l.ol'l. There is but one rectory to three chinch edifices. On the other hand, there has been a gratifying increase in the number ot church institutions: Church hospitals from o7 to 7li, orphan as lunis from 40 to 41, and the entire number ot institu tions from .hi- to 411). "There have been 12,171 more bap tisms during the last three years than m the three years preceding and 1'2.7H more confirmations. We arc compelled to ueitc, however, that while 1L!.'i.7o persons have been confirmed, only '.-.-41!f are reported as added to the num ber of communicants. The number ut communicants has increased from 4SS, 7'o to dHJ.L'otl, or OH, l-t'i.'i, more than three years ago. The number of bap tized members ot the church may, there fore, be estimated at -',740,-00. "The extra dioecsau contributions have been S7iio,l!4J.l 7 more lor the last three vcars than during the three years ended in ISS'J; those for diocesan purposes have been SMS, 1-70.114 less, and those lor parochial purposes SO, 1 1 S . -'."';!.

Senator Ransom's oration at Shelby was listened to by more than two thous and people, a large number of ladies be iiid present.

Raleigh News and Observer: We have now Rotten far enough along to justify us in saying that North Carolina will certainly give her electoral vote to Cleve land, and it is from now out only a cpuestion ot what the majority will be. Edgecombe has formed a county asso ciation of Democratic clubs, the first in the State. "The unterriticd" have aroused themselves. We anticipate with calmness the misrepresentation of our motives and purposes, instigated by a selfishness which seeks to hold in unrelenting grasp its unfair advantage under present tariff laws. We will rely upon the intelligence of our fellow countrymen to reject the charge that a party comprising a ma 'ority of our people is planning the de struction or injury of American interests, and we know they cannot be frightened bp the specter of impossible free trade.

Vt liat "a Visitor" Thought of Mr. Kedwood'M AdclreHS. EimoK The Citizkn : The exercises at the Bailey street school on Columbus day were very interesting, The fine rooms of the building were beautifully decorated.

Many visitors testified by their presence1 their interest m tliccclcliratiein. I lie pu pils, well in hand, responded to the least coalman! of Mrs. Fcalhcistoti and her assistants.

Whilst appropriate exercises were con ducted bv the teachers of the lower grades in their own rooms, all the room would hold were gathered m the room of the principal to be addressed bv Mr. Henry Redwood.
