THE EXPENSES OF THE CARNIVAL.
It appears that, on a rough estimate, the
expenses of the Authors' Carnival in San
Francisco, including private outlay, must
Lave approached .5120,000, while as a re
sult, so far as the charitable factor is con
cerned, 824,000 remains to be distributed
among the beneficiaries. Certainly it must
be admitted that this 13 a very costly an 1
circuitous method of raising a little money.
The amusement factor, no doubt, ocec
pies an important place in the calculation ;
and then there is the didactic factor, the
value of winch is somewhat difficult to ap
praise. A large number of people have
found active employment for two weeks in
work which has considerably entertained,
and to some extent instructed, the public ;
ami besides this, six charities Lave bene
lited. to the amount of §4, C00 apiece. On
the whole, therefore, it may be considered
that the game has been worth the candle,
and especially since it may fairly be assumed
that these charities have gained more in
this way than they cool i have done in any
other. Let us suppose, for example, that
this sum of £24,000 had been necessary to
their support, and that it had beer, impos
sible to hold the Carnival. How long
would it hive been before they got it in
direct contributions from wealthy people ?
-Judging from the ordinary experience of
such solicitations they would not have o' -
taineJ it at all, and therefore it it not really
a question whether they should hive had
a larger percentage of the expenditures in
th? present case, but whether they were to
have anything at all. The succjsj of these
two carnivals has been so considerable
tint it might ■ rhaps be worth while to
consider whether some entertainment of
the kind could not be established per
manently. The annual celebration of
Mardi Oras and the Carnival in Southern
cities, like Memphis and Now Orleans,
suggests practical cxample3 of what we
mean. There is no reason why similar
arrangements should not be made in San
Francisco, and these annual festivals, or
•whatever they might be called, would not
improbably prove both entertaining and
useful as well as profitable to the city.
THE " EXAMINER."
The San Francisco Examiner has ceased
to exist as an evening paper of solid and
sober Bourbon proclivities, and has, in
pissing into new Kan 1«, reappeared as a
morning journal, nnder Democratic man
agement and auspices, br^ with a promise
of news enterprise which it nevrr knew in
its chrysalis state. It has been a moot point
wh«ther a Democratic morning newspaper
era] I live in San Francisco, and perhaps
the negative of this proposition ha 3 been
ancousciusly bas"d on the fast that no
rea'ly enterprising or substantial concern
of the kind lias been launched there for
many years. The assumption that Dem
ocrats never read is hardly admissible. The
Allegation that they do not read Demo
cratic papers might be accepted for the
most part without impeaching their sagac
ity in the least. But that they are unwill
ing to support a journal whica while it
offers them all : the news of the day, fur
nishes them in addition with opinions con
genial to their way of thinking, romiinj to
be demonstrated, and tho new Examiner
set out with an evident determination to
solve f: the problem. Its first ■;- issue is
decidedly promising, and as it is said to
have plenty of money it may, .with judi
cious management, go far towards settling
this vexed question : against the common
theory. -
A CONFESSION OF UNTRUSTWORTHINESS.
The Boston Advertiser, commenting
upon General Hancock's letter regarding
the Southern claims, observes: "Nobody
" has thought it necessary to ask the Re
" publican candidate to give a pledge that
" he will not countenance any projects to
" open the Treasury to be plundered by
" rebel claimants. He could be trusted
| li without a pledge, just as the Republican
" party can be trusted without a pledge to
" support and enforce the constitutional
" amendments. Why are pledges required
" from one party and one candidate and
" not required from the other party and its
" candidate? It is because the record of
" the Republican party and its candidate
" is an assurance that needs no strength
" ening, while the record of the Democratic
" party ia all against the course which the
" people desire and intend to have kept.
" In order to obtain a chance it has to prom
" ise not to overthrow what it has vainly
" attempted to prevent." This is true.
The very fact that General Hancock has
been forced to give a pledge that he would
if elected veto Southern claims is a confes
sion cf the untrustworthiness of himself
and his party. If the record of that
party had been such as to inspire confi
dence, neither Tilden nor Hancock would
have been compelled to come forward
at the eleventh hour and give
these assurances. Nor is this all.
General Hancock's pledge can bind nobody
but himself. His party has given no
pledge that it will not urge Southern
claims, and on the other hand the country
sees that it is controlled l>y the very ele
ments which are known to be interested in
bringing those claims forward. What did
Toomba say at the beginning of this can
vass ? He declared that if Hancock wa3
elected he would have to run the Govern
ment to suit the South, and that if he did
not so run it they would run it themselves.
That is plain talk enough, and there can
be no question that Robert Toombs is a
representative Southerner, or that he
stands for the dominant element of his sec
tion. General Hancock is merely the fly
on the wheel, in any consideration of the
comparative influence of him and his party.
He was nominated as a blind. His choice
was a cold-blooded political trick. It was
calculated that by putting a Union soldier
at the head ot the ticket a good many
Northern people would be deluded into
believing that the Democratic party had
undergone a real reform and had aband
oned all its disloyal tendencies. Bat
there has been no change in the Democracy.
Its record is the only guide to ita character
and programme, and this is so bad that its
candidates, even when Union Generals,
have to come forward and solemnly pledge
themselves not to do the things which it is
evident that the party is most disposed to
do. And General Hancock's letter is after
all a very unsatisfactory document. When
a man is going to pledge himself in the face
of the nation upon a certain issue, and
when he is sincere in what he says, he
ought to know whereof he ia speaking.
But General Hancock's honesty can only
be predicated upon the condition of assum
ing hi? ignorance. For he treats the ques
tion of the Southern claims a3 if in truth
it was a mere bugaboo, and ho intimates
that nobody has ever thought of advancing
Buuh claims. Now this is notoriously uu
true, and if General Hancock did not
know it to be untrue the fact shows that
he failed to inform himself in so important
a matter as any conscientious and earnest
man would have done.
Icdced hia as3crtion that nobody would
be "so unnatural" aa to bring forward
claims of this kind, and his further decla
ration that to do so would be to "insult
"the honor and intelligence of our people,"
show that he is curiously ignorant of pub
lic affairs. For a3 a matter of fact not less
than sixteen Democratic United States
Senators, ami lifty-four Democratic Repre
sentatives, have already brought in bills to
promote the payment of Southern claims.
Seventy Congressmen of General Hancock's
own party have thus, according to him
"insulted the honor and intelligence of
"our people." These are matters of
record, and therefore there i 3 no escape
from them, and it is a surprising crcum
stiuce that the Democratic candidate
should have presumed to talk so loosely
and inaccurately about a matter on which,
notwithstanding his ignorance, he was
willing to pledge himself bo emphatically.
His indifference to the fact 3of the case, his
cool ignoring of the presentation of South
ern claims amounting already to fifteen
hundred millions of dollars, justifies t!;e
strongest suspicion as to the worth of his
assurance, moreover. • Thus his personal
pledge is impeached, and even if it
was not open to doubt the faut
would remain that he cannot bind
his party. The Democracy has
made no promises, but what it
will do may be gathered from wh*t it has
done. It hai taken upon itself to advance
the Southern claims. The syndicate of
Washington claim agents which has them
in band is composed entirely of !>. mocratg.
And behind them come the Southern
Congressmen, everyone of whom is already
committed to these measures. It was
Manning of Mississippi who introduced
House Bill ."si:;, to reorganise the Supreme
Court by appointing twelve new Judges.
That bill contains the machinery through
which the payment of all the Southern
claims may be accomplished, and it is now
ia the hands of the Judiciary Committee.
In tho fac; of such facts General Han
cock's disclaimer appears utterly inade
quate to restore confidence, and it ought to
be so regarded. The Democracy is obliged
to apologize, and explain, and give pledge?,
at every step, and all these assurances are
invalidated by the fact that they are obvi
ously mado for the purpose of the moment,
and are in conflict with the record of the
party. Wise men will refuse to have any
thing to do with a party whose character
needs so much patching, and whose record
is bo opposed to all its present profession?.
They will prefer to be safe, and they will
perceive that safety can only be had by
supporting tha Republican party, which
requires no campaign pledges to give as
surance of its faithfulness to the bost in
terests of the nation.
THE QUESTION OF A CHANGE.
The Democrats cay that *" change " is
needed. Why? And what kind. of a
change ? When a people are doing well,
an 1 in a fair way to do better, no change
is likely to occur Jo them which will not
have the effect of making things worse. At
the present time there is less justification
for a change than there has been for many
years, and even if it was desirable, the
Democratic party is incapable of introduc
ing it. ' . To-day the country is steadily re
covering from depression. Its finances are at
last on a measuraMy sound basis. It rejoices
in the possession of a currency which Uat par
with gold everywhere. The working clisks
are no longer cheated and impoverished by a
depreciated money. Prices have been
brought down to the bedrock. Wild spec
ulation has ceased. Values are settled.
The securities of the Government bring a
premium in the money markets of the
world. The public credit was never so
high. The process of paying off the debt
is being carried on rapidly and success
fully. Production and industry and com
merce are flourishing. What then ia a
change needed for, and why, and of what
nature ? And above, all, what kind of
change is the Democratic party ca
pable of producing? We can only
judge by its record, and we know
very well where it lias always been
found. Every man who fought against the
Union was a Democrat. Every man who
tried to prevent resumption was a Demo
crat. Every man who resisted the main
tenance of the public faith was a Demo
crat. Every man who approved the solidi
fication of the South by force and fraud
was a Democrat. Every man whe sought
to repeal the federal election laws was a
Democrat. Every man who denounced
the constitutional amendments was a Dem
ocrat. Every man who advocated the State
Rights doctrine was a Democrat. In short
every measure prejudicial to the interests j
of the country, whether political or finan- j
cia!, has found its support among the
Democrats. At this moment the Demo
cracy is seeking and makiDg alliances with
the Gre'enbackers, who aim at putting an
end to specie payments, flooding the coun-
try with liat paper money, swindling the
public creditors, and involving the nation
ia bankruptcy, infamy aud incalculable loss
and mischief. This the Democrats do in
the very teeth of their national platform,
which commits them to " honest money "
and "a strict maintenance of the public
" faith, State and national." Does
any sane man imagine that a change
inaugurated by such a party would
be a beneficial one? The Demo
crats again are responsible for the
danger of the Southern claims. Their
friends, allies and clients have designs
upon the national Treasury of the most un
exampled kind, and they are under the
thumb of the South. What is it they offer
the country in exchange for its present
prosperity ? Mexicanization at the South ;
the adoption of fraud as a permanent feat
are in American politics, and the nullifi
cation of the constitutional amendments.
In finance, they offer us fiat money,
repudiation, and the payment of
rebel claims. They also evince a
passionate desire to fill all the federal
offices, and this is the one " change " upon
which they are entirely agreed. They
have in truth no case. No man can coolly
analyze their propositions in the light of
their record without perceiving that they
are incapable of giving the country any
change but a change for the worse. " Let
" well enough alone " is a wise axiom, but
people would indeed have to be badly in
want of a change if they deliberately ex
changed prosperity for adversity, honor for
dishonor, order for anarchy, a free ballot
and a fair count for Southern ballot-box
stuffing and bulldozing.
THE SAN JOSE MYSTERY.
The other night a young man was walk
ing in San Jose with two ladies, wh<>n he
was attacked and suddenly shot by an un
known man who made hia escape. As the
young man had no enemies, the affair puz
zled everybody. Later, a letter was picked
up, stating that the writer had shot the
wrong man ; that he was looking for a per
son who had been the means of sending
him to the penitentiary ; and that he re
gretted his blunder. Still later another
citizen wai attacked by a man who first
demanded his money, and then shot at him
without waiting for a reply. A scuffle en
sued, and the robber broke away, but was
finally captured. It is thought that he is
the man who shot young Diamond, and it
seems by no means improbable. All the
actions of the man in custody, however,
point to his insanity, and we are inclined
to think that tliis, and not any deep-laid
plot or revenge, will be found to account
for the alarming events which have so dis
turbed Sau Jose.
CHINA AND JAPAN.
By the steamship City of Taking, which
arrived at Sin Francisco yesterday, we
have later date.! from China and Japan.
i HIN.\.
From the China Mail we glean the fol
lowing :
Our Pekin correspondent writes that it
will not be long before Chung How is re
stored to his former honors. There can be
no doubt that this shows thai China will
now amicably settle her oifficulty with
Russia, and there will be no war.
The whole tenor of our latest advices
from Pekin is peacelike. Not only hars
Chung How been released, but an Imperial
letter has been sent to the Czar in tavor of
a peaceful adjustment of the difficulty. A
great many conflicting rumors, however,
are afloat, and it is hard to know what to
make of them or how far the arguments
publicists base on them are justifiable. It
is said, for instance, by one .Shanghai news
paper, that affairs at Pekin look very darU,
and we may " soon expect to hfcar of some
thing Btartling."
A decree has been issued calling on the
various Yamens concerned to decide on a
suitable punishment for the Ministers who
have of late delayed the transaction of
im-iiuesH. The above decree ia somewhat
analogous to the first decree against Chung
How. It is rumored that Tso liaa arrived
at Pekin, or is expected there immediate
ly, and tsat this move is due to his influ
ence. It is suggested that this remarkable
decree is probably aimed more especially
against Prince Kung than any of tlie
others.
■ i ii.. .-s B. Angell, the United States Min
ister, took charge of the Legation at
Pekin from (1. F. Scwattl August lt)th,
The question cf raising a foreign loan for
the purpose principally of withdrawing
from circulation a large portion of the
paper currency is, we believe, decided in
the affirmative.
Reports from the provinces respecting
the incoming rice crop continue favorable.
A telegram was received from Kol>e re
porting a violent Btorm at that port.
An explosion took place in the Osaka
arsenal on the 3Ut of August. Upwards
of thirty workmen are reported as killed.
ELECTIONS IN OCTOBER.
Maine having ended the State elections
in September, the contests to be held in
October become of interest. They will be
four in number, as follows :
Georgia will elect on Wednesday, Octo
bsr Cth, State officers and a Legislature,
which will chose a United States Senator.
It should be noted that Georgia will not
elect its representatives in Congress at this
State election, but will choose them on
Tuesday, November 2d.
Indiana will elect on Tuesday, October
12th, State officers, representatives in
Congress and a Legislature, which will
choose a United States Senator.
Ohio will elect on Tuesday, October 12th,
minor State officers, representatives in
Congress and a legislature, which, in the
case of the election of General Garfield as
President, will choose a United States
Senator.
West Virginia will elect on Tuesday,
October 12th, State officers and a Legisla
ture which will choose a United States
Senator. The people will also vote upon
two proposed amendments to the Constitu
tion of the State— one relating to Courts
and the other to the right of trial by jury
in certain cases. As in Georgia, the rep
sentatives in Congress in West Virginia
will be elected on Tuesday, November 2J.

Polllirnl Matters.
THE LITTLE GAME IN OHIO BLOCKED.
Chicago, October 4th.— Specials from Co
lumbus, 0., indicate that the desperate still
hunt which the Democrats have been con
ducting in Ohio has been earthed by the Re
publicans, both as to its effects and its meth
ods. It was a brilliant idea of Chairman
Baruum, of the National Committee, and
one which cauie near succeeding to capture
Ohio, by the liberal use of money and other
means known to him, aud to end the cam
paign then and there. There had not been a
doubt in the minds of Ohio Republicans that
that State would give a stalwart Republican
majority in October, but when the quick and
effectual work of thousands of Democrats
was put in where 1 the most skillful political
schemers of the Democratic par|y directed
that it should be put. the phases of the po
litical sky began to change rapidly, and but
for the note of warning sounded by some
equally shrewd Republicans, the State of
Onio would have stood a fair show of coming
in iv October with a Democratic majority.
Republican orators of great ability are con
ducting the campaign with an activity never
surpassed in the history of the State. The
Democrats have not given up their plan yet,
but yesterday Mr. Barnum, who, as he said,
came to Ohio simply to attend to private
business, met John G. Thompson and all the
other more prominent Democrats in the
State, especially from the districts which are
classed as doubtful, and it is said made ar
rangements by which it was hoped to carry
all the doubtful districts by such large ma
jorities that the Republican vote in the
others will be overcome. The papers are full
of the details of the plan outlined, and it is
quite probable now that the Democrats'
scheme will prove abortive, so far as Ohio is
concerned.
THE OUTLOOK IN INDIANA.
New York, October 4th.— The Time* says
Democrats returning from Iniiana, after
stumping the towns in that State, claim that
Landers will be elected by 10,000 plurality,
and that Landers himnelf thinks so. They
claim that the Republicans are colonizing
voters in the State. The Republicans also
claim the State by a majority of some 4,000
to 10,000, and have proof of thousands of
men being imported into the State for Demo
cratic votes. The State is pretty well pa
trolled by detectives in Republican employ,
to detect and prevent any attempt at fraudu
lent voting.
CONGRESSMAN COX'S FRANK.
New Yokk, October 4th. — The Timi-t
learns with regret that Congressman»Cox,
who volunteered to aid the Times in discover
ing the person who forged his frank, has left
%V ashington for Indiana without making good
his word. He gave a wide berth to the Pont
office Department and to the postorh>e in
which three bags filled with franked envel
opes bearing his name are in quarantine. If
he were anxious to hush up the whole matter
and have nothing said about Lis "double," he
could not have been more shady.
ANOTHER CAUSE OF THE REPUBLICAN DEFEAT
IN MAINE.
New York, October 4th.— Neal Dow,
lecturing yesterday, ascribed the Republican
defeat in Maine to its leaders catering to the
rum-selling interest, and the Republican offi
cials neglecting to enfore the prohibition law.
They pleaded '"Holid South" in our ears,
while the chief officers of the State tried to
overthrow the temperance law. We looked
the situation in the face, and came to the con
clusion that our law must and should stand,
and we did not vote for their candidates.
This is what lost Maine to the Republicans
this fall. Let the "(olid South" come, bat
intemperance must go. We are temperance
men first, asd Republicans afterward. By
her temperance Maine has saved 521,000,000.
and business is in a more satisfactory condi
tion than ever. During the panic we did not
suffer, as we were saving what the New
Yorkers were spending over bars.
THE "BAK'I. " Of INDIANA.
New York, October 4th. — The Tribune
says: A Republican success in Indiana is not
sure, simply because there is danger of the
Democrats unloosing an enormcm fund for
the purchase of doubtful votes on election
day. The amounts they have raised in this
city within the past fortnight for thU pur
pose are without precedent. Samuel J. Til
den makes a fresh contribution of .*25,000 ;
Augustus Schell gives 320,000. and others
contribute in proportion — all for a single
Western State in October, anil all after the
legitimate expenses of the campaign have
been provided for. Doubtless many of the.se
gentlemen will be shocked to learn
that their money was to be used for
the actual purchase of votes at the polls
on election day, but Mule buyer Barnum U
the man attending to the disbursements.
Large sums aro believed by many to be
reaching him ako from England. Weshould
be slow to believe tliis, but it is known that
English manufacturers have contributed lib
erally to send documents to atfect the Pres
idential election in favor of the tariff for
revenue party, and perhaps in the crisis of
the campaign it might seem only a step from
document* to what Mr. Tilden has taught us
to know as the brst United States documents.

GRANT ON HANCOCK— SEASON'S WHY HE WOULD '
- V* HAVE ACCEPTED THE NOMINATION, '/-'i'-'l.
. New York,! October sth— a. si. — Specials :
say that Grant, talking of Hancock, says !
he is crazy to be President. ■> He is ambitious, :
vain and weak. He : gave an authentic .ver- 1
sion of " Order N0.' 40, acd said it' hung only j
on the fact that he was opposed to "nigger I
domination," as he termed it. ;■
;In speaking of | the j Chicago Convention, :
Grant said : "There are three reasons why I j
would have accepted the nomination. .' First, !
on -account of the character of the men who j
urged it. I esteem tLeir respect and ! confi
dence higher than the nomination, i Second; |
I believe I could have broken up , the I solid j
South." 'Many life- long .Democrats :in the '•
South have given the strongest assurances ',
of their- cordial support, , believing that I 1
could deliver them from the evils of the solid j
South ; third, there is another partial reason, j
I believe that I could have induced, from my
knowledge of our Consulate?, ": the enactment
of certain laws touching our commerce that,
greatly benefited the country. -

The Panama Canal Syndicate.
New Yore, October 4th.— The Times says': j
J. and W. Seligman & Co. * cabled to" Paris
yesterday for further details of the reported
formation of a syndicate for the construction i
of the Panama Canal, but had received j no
answer up to the close of business last ; even
in?..■;■"; :.>>«.• . ; . . . >
| At a meeting Saturday it was decided :to
emit a loan of 400,000,000 francs about the
20th of this month. Trenor W. Park, Presi
dent of the Panama R-tllroad Company, said
last eight. to a reporter of the Times that
when DeLesseps visited the Isthmus last fall '
he met him there in pursuance of an arrange- j
meet previously made, and an agreement was j
entered into for the sals of the Panama Rail
road ! to the canal company in case DeLes
seps was successful in forming the syndicate
with sufficient capital to carry on the enter
prise. Recently Park wa3 called upon by
Seligman, DeLesseps' agent, who desired to
know if the Panama Railroad Company was
ready to deliver the road to the canal syndi
cate in accordance with the terms of the agree- i
ment. Park replied that it was. He also stated j
that by the terms of the grant of the Colombian ]
Government to the Panama Railroad Com- 1
pany no canal can be constructed .within its I
territory without awarding damages to the I
railroad company by a Board of Arbitration, |
and jdo railroad can be constructed at all |
across the Isthmus without the unqualified |
consent of the Panama Railroad Company.
As it is first necessary to have a railroad be
fore the canal can be built, De Lesseps con- j
eluded to purchase the Panama road out- 1
tight. Park thinks that the canal is entirely i
practicable, and he believes its construction |
will shortly be entered upon. The capital of |
the syndicate he understood to be 850,000,000. i
He did not believe the United States Gov
ernment would put any obstacles in
the way of the enterprise, or that any '
attempt would be made by Congress
to enforce the Monroe Doctrine. Said he,
If I the Colombian Government - had
the money in the treasury to proceed with
this work on its own account as an internal
improvement, no one could deny the right to j
do so. ' The principle is the same if it sought j
outside its own bound tries for the capital re- I
quired." Park also said that no American
capital could be asked for, as required by De
Lesseps, who undoubtedly could obtain all he
desirtd in Paris. '

son, . who, however, in the next inning i
added to his score 46 and 138. Schaefei for
the remainder of the game played very badly,
and seemed to have lost all courage, while
Slossr.n kept adding to his score runs of 114,
83, 31 and 71, winning the match in the 18th
inning, and leaving the balls in a good posi- ]
tion on the rail. His average is the best on j
record. There*was considerable bHting, and

those present. The following scores were
