The total vote cast for governor was
890,101, being 117,04!) loss tliau the vote
for President in. 1876. The highest
vote received by any Republican was
439,189 for Wadsworth for comptroller,
and the highest vote received by any
Democrat was 4.c,.n,615 for Seymour for
state engineer. The combined Dem
ocratic vote for .Robinson and Kelly
for governor is 34,635 more than the
Republican vote for Cornell, and 14,
082 more than the largest vote polled
for the highest Republican candidate.
Leaving the triangular gubernatorial
contest out of the question, and view
ing the returns from the standpoint of
the square party fight for the six
other state officers, we find the lowest
Republican majority to be 122 for
lieutenant governor and the highest
to be 0,873 for comptroller, while
Horatio Seymcur, jr., Democrat, is
chosen state engineer by 14,024.
Galveston, Texas December 2. A
dispatch from Waco, says: Last night
at a dance in the country Budd Wood
invited Miss Grace Htanfield to dance
which she declined. Wood became
angry and demanded that the dance
tvase ana ioiiowing one in i.urne
Into the buck room and provoked u
fight. Currie knocked liiin down
with a pair of tongs. The two men
afterwards met outside and fought a
duel with pistols. A dozen shots be
ing exchanged. Currie was wounded
in the hand, a bystander in the leg,
and George Wood in the thigh. Budd
Wood then went to where Miss Stan
rteld was engaged in conversation with
Albert E. Choch, and made two at
tempts to shoot her. He then re
marked to Choch,, "You are a friend
of Currie," and shot him dead, and,
going up to Currie, knocked him
senseless with his pistol. Wood then
made good his escape.
Newspaper Laws.
1. A postmaster is required to give
notice by letter, (returning a ptiper
does not answer tne law) wnen a sub
scriber does not take his paper out o
I he office, and state the reasons for its
not being taken ; any neglect to do so
makes the postmaster responsible to
the publisher lor the payment.
2. Any person who takes a paper
from the postolliee, whether directed
to his name or another, or whether he
lias subscribed or not is responsible for
the pay.
. It any pornon orders Ins paper
ages, or the publishers may continue
to send it until payment is made, and
collect the whole amount, whether it
be taken from the office or not. There
can be no legal discontinuance until
the payment is made.
4. If the subscriber orders his paper
to stop at a certain time, and the pub
lisher continues to send, the subscriber
js bound to pay for it, if betakes itoui
ot tho post-office. The law proceeds
upon tue grounu that a man must pay
lor wiuu- ne uses.
5. The courts have decided that re
fusing to take a newspaper and peri
odicnls from the post-office or remov
ing and having them uncalled for, is
prima taelu evidence of intentional
fraud.

We advise all our readers, whether
they own a foot of land or not. to sup.
ply themselves with that treasure of
useful, practical reliable information
the Amercun Agriculturist, so named
because started 88 years ugo as a joiirn
al, but nw enlarged to embrace u
great variety of most usful reading for
the Household, Children included, for
the Garden, as well as the Farm for
all classes. Each volume gives some
800 original Engravings, with descrip
tions of labor-saving and labor-helping
contrivances, of plants, fruits, flowers,
animals, etc., including many large
and pleasing, aw well as instructive,
pictures for young and old. The con
stant, systematic exposures of Hum
bugs and dwindling Schemes by the
Agriculturist are of great value to every
one, and well save to most persons
many times its cost. 'Altogether, it is
one of the most valuable, as will us

From our regular correspondent.
Washington, D. C, Nov. 2,1879.
Thanksgiving Day ftt the Nationnl
Capital Is now observed, not enly by
the descendants of the l'uritnns, but
by the Texan, the Turk, the Ruxslan,
the Greek, the Spaniard, the Nor
wegian, and If a basketful of the
national birds called Turkeys, going
into a side door of the legation, Is any
evidence of 'the observance of this
New England custom, even the
"heathen Chinee" and tho dapper
Japanese have dropped cheerfully Into
the gastronomic feature of the occa
sion. (Juitoa contrast this with the
days when John Quliicy Adams was
President, In November, 1825, a
proposition was made to him by Dr.
Maurle, a Presbyterian minister, to
appoint tiie 24th of that month a day
of thanksgiving In the District of
Columbia. The proposition was Sub
mitted by President Adams to the
Cabinet, who were all against it;
objected to Its novelty, as liable to im
putations of political purposes, of in-
trodiiclnir New Emrluud manners, of
usinsr hlnh authority for an inferior
purpose, and, as the President acqui
esced in these, opinions, the day was
not appointed. It came to us this
year as bright and sunny and rosy as
an Indian Summer day, and our
people generally enjoyed whatever it
brought them of the fat of the land.
The line of distinction here between
the Church and the theater is so slight
that numbers, including distinguished
Solons, saints, and sinners, who
gathered at the places of worship in
the morning, Parisian-like, Hocked to
the National Theatre in the after
noon and evening to hear the eminent
actor, John MeCuIloiigh, as Duke
Aranza and Julius Cwsar.
As Congress meets on Monday,
December 1, the hotels, lodging-houses
and hash-mills of Washington are
filliug up, not only with members,
kings and queens of the lobby, and
patriots in search of Government pap,
but many of the political corpses of
the country, whom a wise constituency
after a trial in one or more Congresses,
have wisely concluded to leave at
home by substituting better men.
Among the latter the most lively is
the cock-eyed statesman from Mas
sachusetts, Ben Butler. What a cat,
with its nine lives, is among animals,
the invincible General is among po
liticians. You may submerge him in
a sea ot votes and cluli him with all
kinds of villainous stories and lies,
and he comes smilingly to the surface.
Congressman Moso of Massachusetts,
states that Gent Butler will never
again run for Governor, but Intends to
invade his (Mose's) district next fall
and run for Congress. He hopes, how
ever, that appolexy, cholera-inorbus,
or something else, may interfere; but
we fancy that he, like mauy another
political, will have to accept the in
vitable and submit for a more irre
pressible and persistent fighter than
Old Ben has never been seen here.
The political world is his oyster1
The Secretary and Agent of the
LouisianaState Lottery Company have
filed a bill in the Supreme Court of
our District, against the Postmaster
General to restrain the Post-office De
partment from interfering with the
delivery of money-orders, registered
letters, etc. A rule has been granted
to show cause why the injunction
should not issue returnable Decem
ber 4. These proceedings are in
stituted in the Court of this District in
order that tho case may be speedily
carried, for final adjudication, to the
Supreme (Hiiirt of the United States,
and the lottery men expect to be sus-
t lined there, as were thote who resisted
4 1.. v,,vlr vltein ! .ll.,lno4
the decision declaring it' unconstitu
tional. We shall not be surprised if
the Supreme Court rules as techni
cally in regard to lotteries as to trade
marks, for it is a stickler always for
legal hair-splitting, with a leaning
over against equity. Wiping out the
8,000 trade marks of the country,
worth millions of dollars to the pro
prietors, shows what lawyers can do
when they act as judges.
The last Congress authorized the re
moval of the City Post-office from the
General Post-office building, opposite
the Patent Office, to such other quar
ters as a designated commission should
selecs, which, after canvassing the
city rented the "Seaton House," the
immense 5-story hotel fronting Lou
isiana avenue "and C street, near Sev
enth street, and recently occupied by
the Pension Office. It Is now readv
for occupancy, anil the work of re
niovul is in progress. Only tho base
ment and first and second stories will
be used at present, though the other
three stories will undoubtedly betaken
for some other governmental purpose
inasmuch as the rental of 5,000 per
year covers tho whole building. The
postal department has grown to such
proportions that the present quarters
are wholly insufficient to accoi
date the needs of the General Govern
ment and the city hence the necessity
of the above charge. Yet we shall
miss our dully visit to tho pret
tiest, uovernnieut structure in the
District. The delicate order of archi
tecture of the General Post-office build
ing in contrast with the heavy porti
eos of the Patent office, is attractive.

The Phehh is thoroughly devoted to
the principles of the Republican party,
and niantains the Rupolilican organ
ization because It believes that the
prosperity and progress of the people
cannot be wifely intrusted to any other
existing liolitical organization. Dur
ing the year 111, the most stupendous
political' conflict of this epoch will
take place. Upon its issue will depend
the political destiny of tho country for
manv vours.
The Press steadily resists the alms
of the "Solid South." which is now
organized to capture the Executive, to
retain Congress, to remodel and con
Irol the Sm ironic Court, nnd to subor
dinate everv public interest to the
overmastering purpose of controlling
the policy of the Nation, and thereby
traiuinir bv legislation und peaceful
means what it. lost on the field. The
Press enforces the duty of preserving
in full force the Constitutional Amend
ments made to secure the fruits of the
war; upholds the right of every law
voter to a free, and tin bought exercise
of his right; inflexibly insists upon an
honest return of the votes cast; justi
fies the use of all necessary means to
prevent fraudulent voting and fraudu
lent returning of votes; accepts us
fundamental the equal right of every
citizen to the adequate protection by
the law of his political as well as civil
rights, maintains as wise the Repub
lican policy of Resumption and
honest financial legislation; defends
as sound the policy of Protection to
American Industry; and, in general,
follows whithersoever the Republican
principle leads.

Hair Vigor,
FC3 RESTORING GRAY HAIR TO ITS
NATURAL VITALITY AND COLOR.
It is a most agreeable dressing, which
Is at once harmless and effectual, for pre
serving the hair. It restores, with the
plo?s and freshness of youth, faded or gray,
light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep
black, as may be desired. By its use thin
hair is thickened, and baldness often
though not always cured. It checks falling
of tho hair immediately, and causes a ucw
growth in ull cases where tho glands arc
not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
and strength, and renders it pliable.
The Yiooit cleanses the scalp, cures and
prevents the formation of dandruff;" and,
by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing
properties, It heals most if not all of the
humors aud diseases peculiar to the scalp,
keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under
which conditions diseases of the scalp and
hair are impossible.
As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair,
The Yioon is Incomparable. It is color
less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will
not soil white cambric. It Imparts an
ogreenblo and lasting perfume, and as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed in iis excellence.

THE SUIT FOR 1880.
Tin; St'X will deal with the events
of the year ISRtl in its own fashion,
now pretty well understood by every
body. From January 1 until Decem
hor'31 will be conducted as a newspa
per, written in the En filish language,
and printed fur the people
As it newspaper, Tim Si x believes
in getting all tho news of the world
promptly, and presenting it in the
most intelligible shape the shape that
will enable its readers to l-:iip well
abreast of the ogc with the least Un
productive expenditure of time the
greatest interest to the greatest num
berthat is, the law ecinrol.iiig its
daily make-up. It now bus a circu
lation very much larger thou that of
any other American m -wsptipi r, and
enjoys an income which it is at all
time's prepared to spend liberally for
the benefit of its readers. Pcrple of
all conditions of life and all ways of
thinking buy und read 'J an St :- and
they all derive satisfaction of some
sort from its colmuys, for they keep on
buying ami reading it.
In its ei iiiiiients on men and af!iiiis
Tin-: Sr.v believes thai the tuidoo
policy should be common sense in
npircd by genuine- American princi
ple and backed by honesty of purpose.
For litis reason it is, and 'will continue
to be, absolutely independent of party,
ci.:--'s, ciiiine, organization, or interest,
it is for all, I'll! of none. It will con
tinue to praise what is good and re
probate what is evil, taking cure that
its language is to Ibe point anil plain,
beyond Vl to possibility of being mis
understood. It is liuiiiilueiiced by
motives that do not appear on (he sur
face; it lias no opinions to sell, stive
those whieh may be luul by any purch
aser with two-ecnts. J I hates injustice
and rascality even more than it hates
mi necessary words. Jt abhors fiauds,
pilies fools, ami deplores nincompoops
of every species. It will continue
(iiioupnoui tne ytar lo cliaslise
the (irst class, instruct the second and
discountenance the third. All honest
men with honest convictions, whether
sound or mistaken, are its friends.
And Tin-: hex makes no bom s ol tel
ling the truth to its friends and about
its friends whenever occasion arises
for plain spcnUtn.tr.
'1 host; are t-ho piineples upon which
Tin: M n will be conduelcd during
the year to come.
Tho year hSW will be one in which
mi patriotic American can ailbrd to
close his eyes to public afbiirs. It is im
possible to exaggerate I he Importance
of the political events which it has in
store, or the necessity of resolute vig
ilance on the part of every eitieii who
desires to preserve the Government
that the founders gave us. The de
bales and oets of Congress, the utter
ances of the press, the exciting contest
of the Republican and Democratic
parties, now nearly equal in strength
throughout the country, the varying
drifts of public sentiment, wiil all bear
directly eli'ectively upon the twentv
fourth Presidential election, to be held
iu November. Four years ago next
November the will of the nation, as
expressed at the'polls, was thwarted
by an abominable conspiracy, (lie pro
moters aud beneficiaries of which still
hold tho ofliees they stole. Will tho
crime of 187H bo repeated in ISHo? The
past decade tif years opened with a cor
rupt, extravagant and insolent Ad
ministration intrenched at Washing
Ion. Tin: Srx did som tiling toward
dislodging tho gang, ami breaking its
power. The same men are now intri
guing to restore I lieir leader and them
selves to place front which l liey were
driven by the indignation of the peo
ple. Will they succeed? The coming
year will bring the answer to these
momentous questions. The Hvs will
be on hand to chronicle the facts as
they are developed, and to exhibit
lliein clearly and fearlessly iu their
relations to expediency aiid'riilit.
Thus with a habit of philosophicl
good humor in looking at the minor
alhurs ol lite, and iu gralc tilings a
steadfast purpose to maintain the
rights of the people and the principles
of the Constitution against all aggres
sors, Tin: Jsi;x is prepared to write a
truthful, instructive, and at the same
time entertaining history of lbHi.
