Serenahk up Hon. John V. Creely. The friends
of Hon. John V. Crecly, the member elect from the
Second Congressional District, were jubilant last
night over the success which had attended their
eilorts In behalf of their favorite. Two serenades
were tendered him during the evening, one at 12
o'clock and another about an hour later. About lltf
o'clock. McClurg's Band, accompanied by a large
concourseof citizens, proceeded to Mr. freely 's
residence, at Fifteenth and Lombard streets, and,
after performing a number of selections, took up the
line of march for the quarters of the Keystone B it
tery, at Sixteenth and Filbert streets. On the arri
val of the band the quarters of the Battery were at
once thrown open, and a meeting organized, of
which John L. 11 ill, Esq., was chosen Chairman.
After a few remarks from Mr. Hill, William Klllotc,
Esq., was called upon. Mr. Elliott In onenlng took
occasion to say that the election of Mr. Creely was a
triumph of the people, and he was sure that the Re
publicans of the Second district would never have
occasion to be sorry for the selection they had
made. At the conclusion of his remarks the speaker
Introduced Mr. Creely, whose appearance was
greeted with applause. After this had sal),
lded Mr. Creely came forward and in a few
remarks thanked his friends for their lldullty to him
ilurlDg the late canvass.
It was a pleasure, he said, for him to see them
on this occasion, although he hoped that they would
not jexpect a Bpeecn, roe wont ana excite
ment which he had undergone were so oppressive
that now, since It was over, he felt more like resting
than anything clue. He were a radical Republican,
always bad been, and always expected to be; he
could look to no man or set of men for his present
success; ne owed It to no party, and he had made no
f romlseB or pledges. His friends had stood manfully
y him in all the tr)ing situations in which he bad
been placed during the canvass ; and he thanked them
for their generous aid from the bottom of his heart,
and be would assure them that their contldencc hd
not been misplaced. In concluding he again thanked
his friends, and through them the people or the
Second district, for their aid and support, and re
tired amid tremendous applause.
The Sbootino Yesterday The Condition of
Noi.en, the Wounded man. The onslaught made
yesterday by Democratic roughs on the Board of
Return Judges created more excitement than has
been known in this city for some time. The news
spread rapidly and attracted to the State House
pavement an immense concourse of people, who re
mained there until night bad set In d'scussing the
matter. By au arrangement made with Detective
Franklin, who, In the absence of the Mayor and
Chief Mulnolland, was In command of the Police
Department, toe judges had one by one left the
troiicUng by means of the rear door, and it was not
known until an hour baa elapsed that the adjourn
ment had MSen place.
John C. IS'olen. the man who was shot by Return
Judge Crawford, after being removed from the
court-room, was taken to his residence, No. 925
Buttonwood street, where he lay In a precarious
condition until 11 o'clock last night, when the
hemorrhage which had ensued was checked. Ilia
physician then pronounced him outof danger,unless
secondary hemorrhage should take place. While
lying in his doubtful condition Alderman Mc Jol
gan was summoned and took the following dying
declaration :
I, John O. Nolen, do solemnly and sinoersly make th'a
my dyuiK declaration: That I was hot wit a a piatol ia
tha uaDds of Alexander Orawlord ; and I farther declare
that tbia murder waa commute I at the iustia&Uon of and

The wounded man this morning is In still the
same condition a last night when the hemorrhage

his labors as such, was taken to the Central Station
where he v. as given a hearing before Aldermaa
Kerrnwho committed him to await the Injuries of

the doors. ;

was rnn ashore on the point of Big Island. Her
cargo consists of about 700 barrels SpMts Tur

of rosin. Two hours since the fire had burst
through the upper deck, and there is no doubt
tbe vessel will prove a total loss. One of the

TIIE RESULT 1 X PENSSYLVAXI 1.
End or Drmocratle Hopes In the Next Con-
reae.
TheN. Y. Tribune to-day, editorially, has the fol
lowing: The latest despatches leave several districts still
in doubt, but Indicate as tbe net result of the October
elections the loss of live Republican Congressmen
a loss greater than we were willing to consider pro
bable, but by no means so great as our opponents
had expected. In Pennsylvania we have
probably lost five Gongressmen and galDod
one; the districts lost, according to the
latest Indications, being the Fifth, Seventeenth,
Twentieth. Twenty-first, and Twenty-fourth, and
tbat gained lielng the Twelfth, where Judge wood
ward, by all edds the best Democratic member
Pennsylvania bas bad in Congress, Is defeated by L.
D. Shoemaker. In Ohio we have gained two Con
gressmen, Aaron F. Perry in the First district over
P. "VV. Strader, the present incumbent, and Charles
Foster In the Ninth over E. F. Dickinson ; and have
lost two, Scbenck In the Third district and McLung
in the Fourth. General Schenck, however, is ex
pected to contest the election on the ground of the
esciution irem tae pons oi soiiuerg from tne
National Soldiers' H6me In Montgomery conn .v.
With their votes he would undoubtedlv be elected.
and It Is possible that be may yet be saved to the
public service. In Indiana we lose one congress
man, General Manson b log elected la the teventh
district over General Lew Wallace. In the Legisla
ture the Senate is tied, and the Democrats nave
eight majority in tbe House, while their majority on
the btate ticket now appears to be about lm Iowa
and Nebraska are. of course, heavily Republican

showing tbat the city Is already prepared to
resist any force the Prussians can send against
it. Tbe heights near the city have been strongly
fortified, and entrenched camps have been con
structed anl heavy guns placed in position. The
entire population are armed and are drilling
day and night. Large numbers of Mobiles and
franc-tireurs have reached Lyons, and there
are troops enough there now for an army, and
they may be easily organized to act on the offen
sive. All symptoms of disorder have disippeared
from that city and throughout the south of
