Elections will l>o held, this week, in
twenty four states and three teriitor'n s.
In all of these members of congress
nro to he chosen, and with such gaius
as in the elections lately held, the
democrats would have a majority in
the House at Washington.
In another column we give such re
turns of the elections held in this
county and other parts, as we have re
ceived.
♦ ♦ ♦
Official returns from Ohio do not
differ from earlier reports in showing
that the majorities are turned square
ly round. The lVmocrats elect theit
Secretary of State by nearly the same
majority that the Republican candi
date received in 1873, and the Con
gressional delegation of IS Republic
ans and 7 Democrats will be replaced
by 13 Democrats ami 7 Republicans.
In the election held last Tuesday
we arc glad to tueution that there wort
honest republicans who stood side by
side with democrats, anil voted for
honest men. There is a portion of the
republican party which is as much
disgusted with rings and misrule, a.*
are the large majority of the demo
cracy. These two elements must work
together at the elections, only thereby
can corruption be driven out Thost
republicans who voted for Mackey,
Wallace and Orvis, bad their sacred
duty in view, and w# give them the
full measure of credit for having per
formed the part ofgood citiiens. They
will never regret it—Never.
Rings must be put down. Profes
sional office seekers must be discard
ed. To accomplish these purpose?
was the aim of the democracy.
Honest men must be upheld —the
corrupt in all parties must be put
down, if the country is to be saved,
and all good men of all parties must
j .dn hands to do it.
The Election Over.
The election is over, and as th*
smoke of the battle rises we see clear
er the results. The democracy have
nobly done their duty, urged on to it
with renewed energy aroused by tin
most selfish and inexcusable treachery
in our own ranks, and which has
taught a lesson to the disorganizer
that may not be lost upon the future
The "independent" movement for
Congress has gone home to its reward
It was conceived in obstinacy, fed on
by disappointment, upheld by broken
down and discarded hacks, obtained
the names of a few houest and well
• meaning democrats under misrepre
sentation, and depended for its main
stay upon a bargain with the more un
scrupulous of the radical party, the
deceuter portion preferring a ekati
democratic thing to one born of bar
gain, sale, hate and disappointed am
bition.
Mr. Alexander went into his wild
goose chase from listening to bad
counsels—ninety-nine of every hun
dred democrats regretted his course —
honest republicans promised him n<
encouragement —the Reporter for
montbs clearly pointed out the wishe.-
of the people—all these good couusels
were unheeded, and the satan of poli
tics bad his own way.
Now that the battle is over, let the
few misguided democrats return t(
their rank? and be wiser. There ar<
some, though, who bad better go over
to the radical camp —we mean those
constitutional croakers who are al
ways bent upon mischief, ever ready
to sell out to the enemy, and who are
a pest to the party unless it continu
ally keep them at the crib.
COLLISION BETWEEN KELI.OGG
AND MAJOR BUBKK—THE FOR
MEIt FIRES SEVERAL SHOTS.
New Orleans, October 29 —About half
past three o'clock this afternoon, a collision
occurred between Gov. Kellogg and Ma
jor E. A. Burke, near the corner of Ram
part and Canal streets. Gov. Kellogg, ac
companied by Judge Atot-ha, was going
home in a cab which was stopped at the
place above indicated and a conversation
ensued. Burke put his hand in his breast
and drew a whip with which he attempted
to strike Kellogg, when the governor
pulled out his pistol and fired a shot, bare
ly grazing Burke, who thereupon drew
his revolver and fired three or four shots
without effect. The cab in which were
seated Gov. Kellogg and Judge Atoc'ia
was then driven off. Gov. Kellogg states
that when Burke approached the cab, he
(Kellogg) extended his hand, which Burke
took and at the same moment seized him
by the wrist with the other hand and at
tempted to pull Kellogg out, but the gov
ern** being the stronger of the two, quick
ly released himself from Burke's grasp,
and at once drew his pistol and fired. Gov.
Kellogg and Major Burke in conversation
with an associated press agent after the
shooting, did not differ materially in the
version of the affair.
Major Burke was arrested and taken to
the Central police station, but was released
at the instance of Judge Atoc ha, who went
to the station for that purpose by roquet
of Governor Kellogg. The difficulty arose
from correspondence in papers in relation
to naturalized citizens. Both Governor
and Major Burke were congratulated by
their friends on the harmless termination
of the affair.

Republican Economy
In 1860, under Democratic admin
istration, with n population of 2,006,-
415 persons, a State tax was levied
amounting to $5,470,257: or one dollai
ami twenty cents per head.
In 1875, under Republican admin
istration, with a population of B,(>.>,■ i
tHH), the State tax levied and eolleeted
was $7,070,725, or one dollar aiul

The crisis is approaching in the
Episcopal Convention. The report of
the Committee on Canons is presented
and made the snecial order for Mou
iay at noon. It recommends a new
canon against ritualistic practices, spe
cifying the use of incence, presenting
ihe crucifix, and the elevation and ad
'ration of the elements. On the other
side a memorial is presente 1 bearing
many names of note, such as John A.
Dix and J. J. Astor, objecting to th.
passage of any canon ou ritualism,
chic-flv on the ground that it would bt
a back ward step toward ecclesiastical
dogma aud constraint.
The failure of the Freedman's bank
caused by mismanagement and dis
honesty, whereby certaiu members of
the Washington ring were jiermitted
to filch the hard earnings of emanci
pated siaves, has had a healthy e tfect
upon the colored people iu sonu oftht
southern states. In some parts of
Georgia the negros w ho had been -win
died by the managers of the bankrupt
concern deserted the republican party,
carrying their friends with them and
at the last election were to he seen
marching up to the polls in company
with their old masters and voting the
straight democratic ticket. It is n
significant fact that in nearly all parts
of the reconstructed states when the
colored people wish for assi-tnnce or
advice regarding their personal affairs,
they apply to thair old masters, instead
of carpet baggers, even in sections
where the influence of politicians and
the terrorism exercised bv black
leagues which exist all through the
south lead them to vote persistently
for the robber governments.
THE TREATMENT OF CRIMI
NALS.
Boston. Oct. 25. —A meeting was
held tonight at Faneuil Hall, to dis
cuss the treatment of criminals. Wen
dell Philips was the principal speak
er. He said, the three great problem?
civilization is called upon to consider,
are poverty, disease and crime. The
fact that three-fourths of the disease,
and more than one half of the crime
were amoug the poorer classes, show
how closely connected the three pro
blems are. The man who has once
committed crime if never believed
again, and when he is conscfjucntly
dliven to crime once more he is not to
blame, but the Church and Slate, that
have never held out their hands to
keep birn. There is not a city in the
land hut that is, to a great extent,
governed by its criminal classes. Bos
ton cannot choose a Mayor tiil it has
consulted the frequenters of the grog
shops. At the close of Mr. Philips''
speech, the Rev. Writ. Bradley was
introduced, and read a series of res>>
lutions, setting forth the doctrine
that prisons should be reformatory in
stitutions, and the officers should be
humane and earnest iu their efforts to
save criminals.

An invention that comprehends all
tin-e requirement* in a simple and
efficient manner ha* lately been tested
upon several French railways, with
the most favorable results. When the
switch is in its proper position, any
readjustment of it caused an electric
current to pass down the track along
a wire which, at the proper distance,
terminates in a copper disk. When
the approaching engine passes over
thi* disk, a metal briiih placet! be
tween the wheel* trmisferi the cur
rent to the engine-whistle, which be
gins s iiindiiig, thus giving immediate
and unmistakable warning to the en
gineer, who lias then ample time to
-top the train before the switch is
reached. As the action of the cur
rent L; dependent upon the change ol
position in the switch, it is evident
that the device is on* worthy 0/ gen
eral adoption, and of a more extended
application.

No character in scripture, said the

perhaps, than that of Martha. She has
been ton much regarded a* the type of an

The troubled Martha, in fact, is seldom

St. "Jesus loved .Martini and

and degrading her front her true condi l

did, their religion# duties lest the duties of

at the feet of Jesus in the close!, in the]

and pravor Woman is often to blame for
the "caretul and troubled habit," which I

happiness. A nervous anxious conditioni

ship and other ipeati# ofernce, little serious
thought is taken. J i;t it i. tint trijclliat a
timely foresight anil a prudent administra
tion, that a due order and sy#tem, would
convert our homes into abodes of spiritual
nature and peace, the joy of husbands, the
delight of brothers, and the blessing of
children. To the woman a wonderful
power has been given to save and elevate
man bv faithfully "doing her duty in that
state of life info which it hath pleased tiod
to c.,11 her." Here she may shine. There
is an eXtrumo to be avoided. While it is
inexcusable on nocnunl of much serving to
neglect the religious duties of the family, s
it may be equally culpable to neglect the
claims of the house hold for the sake of re
ligious dissipation. Domestic duties are
not to he sacrificed to an excess of zeal for
societies and i,.etin"s. Our religion is not ~
one-sided thing. Th two tvpoa of phar-'
Meter here represented. If thev are anc-j
titled by faith, both have their right.
Neither is to he exalted to the neglect of
tho ether. The more intimately the zeal
ous Martha lianij is united with the com
posed, quiet Mary iitnit, so piuch the
nearer does one t'otuu to tho ideal of a
harmonious Christian ife. Let the quiet
[>iety of home in its blessed influences be

fruits in the Church of God. n
