Blown up by a Shell.—Mr. Jacob Hill;
residing in the lower part of this county,
when in Hancock a few dayssince saw

Democratic Victories in Fort. Wayne
and Lafayette,. Indiana.—The elec
tion yesterday resulted in the success of
the entire Democratic ticket—from May
or to Street Commissioner, including all
the aldermen. The vote polled was not
unusually large, but heavy enough to
give the Democratic ticket thp neat ma
jority of 623. It wasn't a good day for
'voting, either. The Union Leaguers
certainly could have entertained no hope
of electing their ticket, but to be defeated
in , every ward by the election bf a Demo-
Uratic Alderman was probably unexpect
ed by them. They may as well abondoo
their 'secret 'associations now, asTis dem
onstrated to be powerlets for either good
or evil. They would have succeeded.
quite as welt in a fair, open canvass.
