Ft ll returns from Ohio show that Haves beat Allen for Governor 5,549.

Color ado will, therefore, take part in the Presidential election, having three electoral Totes. Tne election for Mayor and City Councilmcn teok place in Baltimore on Wednesday of last week. The contest was hot and exciting, and the vote polled an enormous ene. Tbe Democrats, who expected to Lave not less than twelve thousand majority, elected their Mayor by 2,731, and ten out of twenty mcni- Urs of the first branch of the city council, and eight of tbe ten mem lcra of the second branch. It is charged, and there appears to be co doubt of the fact, that the I'emocrats succeeded only through immense frauds, and the election is to be contested in the courts. This result in tbe city of Balti more, shows almost conclusively that the Republicans and reformers will carry the State to-day (2d,) and that another State, which tbe Democracy bare felt entirely confident of since the war, will march out of the ranks of the "foul party." Tiro men were poisoned ia a Mis souri town a few days ago under pu culiar circumstances. Pr. Sherman and Mr. Parker went into Mr. Shank's drug store at Bevler and asked for a drink, there being bo saloon in tbe place. Sbaaks said be Lad "a pri vate temperance bottle,'1 which be used bimsclf, and invited-them to lake a drink, handing them a black bottle from which be took several ewallows himself, and tben handed it to tbe gcBtlemen and went to wail on a customer. Sherman and Parker being dry, partook at once of Shanks' 'temperance Lottie," and in five mi nutea dropped dead. Aa analvsis of !be "temperance" liquor showed that it was a mixture of hydrocyanic acid and ftiiieley, the acid being in such proportion that sixtr drops of Shanks' favorite beverage were suffi cient to produce death. There seems to be no doubt that Shanks drank from the same bottle, but bis stom ach being probably made of cast iron, lie enjoyed its strength. To parties like Sbcrxan and Parker it was, in led, a "temperance drink," as they will never driak any more whisky.

The qestion of reading tbe Uible in tbe Connecticut public schools bas come to a lively climax in Newtown, Fairfield countv. in that State. The Iloman Catholic priebt of the parish, Father McCartin, objected to the use of the book, but the local Board of School Visitors decided against him, and directed the continuance of the custom. Father McCertin according ingly entered the largest public school in the pla.ee one morning recently, during the reading of tbe Bible at the openiner of the session, and or dered the Catholic scholars to take up their studies and pay no attention to the reading, lie was summarily ejected by the teacher, and the con sequence of the proceeding bas been tbe outbreak of a very bitter religious feud in the town. Ol It SEW TOR K LETTER. New Y'ork, November 1, 1S75. THE TILTONS. Possibly tbe world has heard enough of the Tiltons; but there al ways is a curiosity to know some thing of the np-risins and down-sittings of those who huve been prom inently belore the public. Of tbe children of Theodore and Elizabeth, one only is with the father Flor ence a beautiful, bright.acconiplished, good girl of seventeen. She loves Theodore in an idolatrous fa.-hion, and while she loves her mother no less, she stays by her father, that his home may not be entirely desolate. Mrs. Tilton is with btr mother, Mrs. Morse. The Plymouth people made up the magnificent sum of $100 for her, on which, 1 suppose, she is ex pected to live this winter. Theodore is building up bis fortunes on the lecture platform, lie is having wonderful success all over the coun try. He is probably the best plat form orator m the country, and then who is there who does not want to see tbe man who tackled the great pulpit Boanerges. The curiosity of tbe public, oud Theodore's talent, will give bim all tbe money be wants. There are rumors afloat tnat .nego tiations are in progress for a recon ciliation between bim and his wife, and i am inclined to believe there is foundation for it. Tilton always loved bis wife, and I know be be lieves bcr more sinned against than sinning. Beecher never drtw bigjrer audi ences than now, and seems never to have had so firm a bold upon his peo pie. FAILVRES. Tbe Wednesday morning papers reported six failures, five of them rather large ones, and every day since the list is growing. This vear will go into history as a disastrous one to tbe mercantile classes ; but it wi;l have a great d?al more charged to it than it deserves. The fact is the failures now being announced should be charged up to tbe account of the last three years, for these bouses have, almost without exception, been bankrupt for from three to five years. So long as tbe times were flush, and credit eastiv obtained, they could swim in tbe current, but tbe moment pressure came, and tbeuauts tegan to tighten up a trifle, down tbey went Beside, this is a good time to fail. The ruined man who might squeeze along for a year or two more, prelers to fail now, when be bas a good excuse for it, and w hen he docs not have to go far Tor a good reason. The Chicago fire and the failure of Jay Cooke, wow Uvo splendid opportu nities tor shaky bouses to get out creditably, and thousands did it. So don't get frightened at the loEg list of failures. Those only are going auder who ought to g, and the most of them should have gone long ago. Nevertheless, BUSINESS is horribly dull here an uocoujforu ble fact which tie merchants .cannot give a good reason tor. it is not so in this city. There is a vast army ot "strikers," m ho do not care a straw who is eleeted and who de feated, but who depend upon the elections to make money out of them. There are thousands of well-dressed, faiily-appearing men in the city, who infest tie doubtful districts, and who offer their "serices" to whatever candidates ehoose to bid for them Grst. They always control, or, at lest pretend to control, a certain num ber of sure votes that is, votes which they can throw wherever it is made their interest to place them and the candidates are expected to fee them, either in actual cash or with a share of the fat places, in tbe event of success. Of course sev-uty percent, of these fellows are the merest pretenders. They control nobody, and their 6tock in trade is impudence and self-assertion. Can didates new to the political field are taken in by them ; tbe old ones laugh at them. I overheard, tbe other night, a conversation between the proprietor of a flourishing rum-mill and his managing man, wbich illus trates the method in New York pol itics. Of course all the names are fictitious: Proprietor. lias Jones been a bringing people in here to-day ? anaijer. Not a man. Prop. lie thinks he has a sure thing of it, and don't propose to spend any money. Man. Smith was in to-day a doz en times, and every time witn a crowd of a dozen or twentv, and he paid for 'em liberally. They all had all they wanted. Prop. Smith is a gentleman, and he'll poll a sweeping vote in tbe ward. If you get a chance let Jones know what Smith is doing. This brief conversation has meat nit. Jones and Smith are running for the same office, but as the party nominating Jones has a large major ity in the ward, be does not think it necessary to squander money on the election, Smith in tbe meantime, us ing tbe grog-shop to make his calling and election Eure. The patriotic pro prietor of the rum-mill wanted Mr. Jones to know what Mr. Sirith was doing, to alarm bim into using tbe same weapons. The grog-shop pro prietor bates the candidate who will not pay for grog, and all the influ ence ho can control is used in favor of tbe one who pays for the most of it. The few weeks before nomina tions, and the time between nomina tions and elections, is their harvest, and they make the most of it Rum is an important element in New York politics.

This is the admired form lor velvet overdresses. Cloth sacques reach nearly to the knee in front, but are quite short in the back, rounding over tbe hips like mantles.

A rrpt fire is now raeriuc iu Viririuia fitv which broke out early this morning. Six or seven blocks are al ready destroyed. Later intelligence from irginia City says: A dispatch just received t thn office of tbe Consolidated lr- cinia Mining Company here, says: Virginia north of Taylor street is all burnt Our mills and works are all rone. The fire is still raging. The ensrines are useless. There is no water. Tbe fire is still spreading. The Catholic church and other buiidinjrs will be blown up. Tbe Ophir Works and tbe Bank of California building are burned. The whole business part of tbe town is destroyed. The Cath olic church is now burning, thou sands of the inhabitants are rend red homeless. Owin? to the destruction of the telegraph office and the press of pri vate dispatches over ine line?, it uas been difficult to obtain any connected information concerning the Virginia fire. The following, however, is un doubtedly correct as far as it goes. The fire broke out about daylight, in a dwelling on a street near Taylor, a point at about the southwestern limit of tbe business and thickly settled portion of the city. It spread, ex tending eastward toward the ravine in which are situated tbe works and mills of several prominent mines, reaching as far as F street north ward. The flames crossed Union and Sutton streets, covering a space of about ten blocks, comprising, in the words of one dispatch, almost every decent building in tbe town. As the fire worked tip C street, offices of tbe Territorial enterprise and Chroni cle were destroyed. Piper's Opera House was next in flames, and it be came evident that the railroad depot and hoisting works of the Consoh dated Virginia were in danger. The water Eupplv was inadequate and tbe engines of little use. Kecourse was bad to blowing up buildings. It was too late, however, and in a few mo ments tbe depot and hoisting works were on fire. Tbe latter were recent ly completed at a cost of several hun dred thousands dollars, and were tbe finest on the Comstock lode. Con tinning to the north and east, the par tially completed mill of the Californ ia Mine and Consolidated inrinia were soon in flames, wbich spread still further north to the Ophir hoist insr works, destroying them also. which is about tbe limit of destruc tion in that direction, the Crc dying out for the want of fuel From Taylor s.reet near Church, where tbe fire originated, it spread southward against the wiud, destroy ing the Branch Bank of California and Wells, Fargo & Co.'s express of fice and everything in its line. At this point the Gould & Curry works were in imminent danger, but were fortunately saved. In short, nearly the entire business portion of tbe town is in ashes hotels, churches, countr buildings, newspaper, tele graph and eipress offices, all are swept away. Over ten thousand persons are homeless. The wind is piercing, and much suuering is antic ipated before temporary shelter can be prepared. It is impossible at present to con jecture the amount of loss. The de struction of the mills and hoisting works above referred to will probably entail a loss of a million dollars with in a radius of a few hundred lect. Fortuuately the shafts of both Opbir and Consolidated Virginia were bulkheaded, and tbe fire was kept out of tbe mine6. Tbe Ophir men say that possibly tle-r loss may be less than at first supposed, as the building was of light frame, and might burn without destroying the machinery, Tbe Joes of buildings and merchandise in the city must be very, great although covered to a irreat extent by insurance. It is not known to what extent t'je mills and hoisting works were in-urea, except in case of the Ophir, here the loss is placed at one hundred aud fifty to two hundred thousand dollars, insur ed for $70,000 in this ci-y. lbe news created tb greatest ex citement, owing to the contradictory natnre of the private du-patches re ceived. California street was full of wild rumors, and tbe telegraph and newspaper offices were bet-ieged with people anxiously seeking iuleliigence. j As might have been expected, stocks felt tfcs effect of the disaster, and when tbe x&rd opened on the call of Ophir there zk$ & tremendous rush, tbe atoYk selling as Jow as SSl. Consolidated Virginia dropped to 210, but subsequently rallied. The talk on tbe street was very gloomy. At first it was supposed that tbe disaster wou'd entail tbe necessary stoppage of all work in the Bouanza mines. and tbat the recently reported break ing in of tba WiJxr would ioo& the mines, and a general pni0 mi (Le- pression ensued. This, however, soon gave way to a belter feeling. It was soon ascertained that the (Jouid .t Curry works were all right, as was also Ltm ' This wan con. sidered tbe key 'lalh ppior; as far A Wells Fargo Jt Co., ct the t it v. to their agents in the principal towns on the coust. directing tbeiu to seiia contributions of fjod, clothing and other iit'cer.sar:cs to the irginia seeut free of charge.

The Board of Brokers, at the close of the afternoon ses.-ioD, held a but-iness meetiog aud ifi (lllrt was subscribed in a few IUO- meuts, which will be at enee trans ferred by telegraph. The Pacific Suck Exchange will tuke action in tbe matter to-morrow. But few detail have beeu received in addition to what has already been rennrtpd. It was ruttioied to-ciht that the Ophir shaft was on fire, but lter advices report that tbe fire only extended down the shaft a short dis tance, being stopped by tbe bulk head. The amount of insurance written in the burnt district is not as certained, but is supposed to aggre gate in the neighborhood of $1,000, 000. No report of losses is yet re ceived lroru agents, and it is impossi ble to state the .proportion of losses to risks. A rouh estimate places the total los9 at two millions. No loss of life is yet reported. The great number of people repor ted turned out of doors by the fire, stated at ten thousand, is accounted for by the fact that owing to the pe culiar mode of life led by the great population engaged in mines, who work by shift day and night, ia many instances tbe same lodings are occu pied at different hours by numerous tenants, and at no time arc house hold accommodations equal to tbe demand of the population. Nearly all lodging houses and dwellings oc cupied by miners were in tbo track of the conflagration, its northcastei'y course being iu the immediate neigh borhood of the mining works. Tbe fire, bas now burnt out, and all dan ger is at an end. San Francisco, October, 27. A special dispatch to the Call, from irginia says that tbe destruction of the citv was owing to the bad man agement of the engineer of the fire department At tbe beginning of the conflagration, wbich started in an undertaking establishment on B St., spreading to an adjoining livery stable, the strenms were turned on the stable, allowing the flames to communicate to tbe county buildings adjomiDg, the fire-department lost l's bold, and tbe wiud blowing briskly from tbe west carried the flames through the town. The water sup ply gave out, the engines aud bosc were burned in the street, panic seized the citizens aud the fire swept on unimpeded, destroying everything in its course. Approximate figures from the in surance companies place the losses sustained by tbem in tbe neighbor hood of ?1,200,000. Among the heaviest losers are the --Etna, Imperial aud Queen and Commercial L nion about $100,000 each; North British anj Mercantile, $G0,000 London Assurance and Underwriters agency, $30,000 each; Hartford aud Phoenix, &c, some 35,000 each; other Eas tern and foreign companies for smal ler amounts. Among local compa nies the Commercial Ioscvj $100,000; iiome Jiutuoi, $ou,ooo or more; iiieman's Fund, $30,000. None of the companies admit that they are at all embarrassed by their losses.

By good fortune the wind shifted anu toe soutn end ot the town was saved but tbe hre still swept on northwardly. The town presented a scene of tbo wildest confusion and panic, the streets were blocked with goods and household furniture. The recent scourgo of typhoid fever caused the presence of many helpless invalids, wbo were being carried to places of safety by friends. '1 he ex tortionate demands of tbe owners of veh'cles, in one case at least, caused a murder. A man on B street eu- deavored to engage a teamster, and unauio to comply witti his demands. The in desperation drcva pUtol and shot tbe driver dead. San Francisco, Octoler 27. The Call's special from Virginia City says it is at present impossible to state the loss ot life. Two men were killed on C street by a falling wall. and there are numberless rumors of other casualties. Hundreds of fami lios arc homeless and hungry. The school houses, the only public; build ings left, are open to tbem, but if im mediate relief is not extended, great suffering will ensue. Utter demoral ization reigns ia tbe city. Men. women and children wonder about the streets, seeking shelter. Th sur rounding bills are dotted with camp fires.

Tbe most authentic informa tion, however, is that tbe ebaft suf fered no materiel injury. It is re- i-j ported on frppurenily good authority r, j that the new boiytiog worts cf the strong coal-iiKe cas cannot be into Savage, as the connecting level is bulkheaded From the information received this morning from private sources, it seems evident that the exact condi tion of the mines is yet unknown. Tbe presence of gas and smoke ex cites considerable suspicion that some serious damage bas been sustained in the workings. In open session this uioruiug a feeling of uncertainty was manifested, and Opbir and Bouanza stocks vibrated at figures off from yesterday's quotations. Later. rrivate dispatches con vey tbe gratifying information that tbe mines are all right. Men have been through from Uould aud Curry to Ophir. There was no fire in tbe workings, aud no danger. The water is decreasing. Tbe damage to tbeOphir shaft is limited to a few feet at tbe top. Consolidated V irginia evidently feels the effect of this news, having just gone up to 23;"frt.2f0 in the board, against 232.V ia open ses sion. irginia Citt, October 23. I have just bad 1 p. m. an interview with Jchn Mackay. He says: I nave been through all tbe mines this afternoon, and they are all right. 1 here is no gas or hre in any way connected with the Curry mine. When the old side shaft was burned, now used as an ore shaft for the Andes, the gas went through the Latrobe tunnel and worked its way into tbe mines. That gas is now all gone. Work will be commenced in the way of hoisting ore in the consolidated V irginia within sixty days, meanwhile, about three hun dred tons will be hoisted daily through the Gould and Curry shaft from tbe Consolidated Virginia mine, and we employ about three hundred men immediately. W c have been employing on Consolidated Virginia seven hundred men. Four hundred of these, together with those employ ed at the Consolidated Virginia mill, must remain idle. If Opbir had not been burnt, we could have hoisted through their shaft as well as Gould and Curry. Things look more cheer ful to-day than they did yesterday, aud by spring everything will be running as well, if not better, than tbey did before the fire. Many me chanics and laborers will have to go to California and return in the spring. This they probably would have done, even if no fire had taken place." San Francisco, Obtober 28. The work of obtaining and forwarding relief to Virginia has been going on vigorou&Iy to-day. Several ibousund dollars were collected to-day, citizens and corporations, especially miuing companies, responding liberally, Donations of clothing, blankets and other necessaries were also forwarded lbe favorable reports of tbe condi tion of the mines received to-day have bad the effect to create a much more hopeful feeling ia business cir cles. A dispatch from Virginia savs matters are much more cheerful. Tbe women are doing a noble work iu re heving the distress Large numbers of men are already at work clearing the grouud and rebuilding. Work has commenced on tbe Ophir shaft and men are clearing away the ruins of the Consolidated Virginia works One engine was found to be good. Tbe record vault of the court house is being dug out. The ruius of the Bank of California are being cleared away, and besides a good many workmen are engaged for private pariies.A number of firms have re sumed business. The insurance ad justers are hard at work. The lia bilities, as can at present be ascer tained, are about one and a half mil lions. Prisoners held for petty of fences were set free, and the others removed to Carson and ' Gold Hill. There was a meeting of lawyers to day, to make such arrangements as the necessities of the case demand. A committee was appointed to call a meeting of the county next Thursday, to consult with regard to reconstruct ing the county buildings, and petition for an extra session of tbe Legislature to provide for cases arising from tbe destruction ef records and munioipal institutions. There was a light fall of snow about noon and more threatened. Boston, October 23. A year ago last February, tbe bark Jewess, of Boston, sailed from New South Wales in the direction of Auckland Islands, a group which lies in the South Pacific ocean, near New Zea land. A few days later, tbe Boston bark, Pella M. Long, and an English bark, name unknown, followed on the same course. No tiding! of the two Boston vessels were received in this city till recently, when Captain Browerof Biddeford, Me., of the bark Marathon of New York, return ing from a voyage'around the world, brought back a terrible story in re gard to them. At one of tbe porta at which he stopped be bad fallen in with a sailor, or Borne one who knew him, wbo purported to be tbe sole survivor of the three crews. Tbe vessels, he said, had become becalmed in the vicinity of the Auck land islands, and laid there together several days. Tbey were boarded at night by cannabals, who came in large numbers, overpowered the crews, plundered tbe ships and scut tled them. Tbe men were carried prisoners to the shore and furnished food for a horrible feast of their cap tors No particulars of tbe fight, or of the survivor's escape, were obtain ed, but the facts are pretty well au thenticated, and the long absence of the vessels furnishes good ground tor believing that the story may be true. The survivor was one of the crew of the Jewess, and be is said to have related that the surprise was com plete, the vessels being some distance from land, and no signs of enemies having been s?en. The usual pre caution taken when a ship is becalm ed in the vicinity of laud inhabited by savages, is to drive sharp nails, placed closely together, through boards which are placed over tbe deck and fastened firmly down leav ing the sharp iron points sticking up. It is then impossible for the bare footed savages to step upon the deck, and they are shot off at leisure. This precaution was not taken on board the Jewess, the survivor said, because no danger wes expected. It is understood th.'t no ship of the United States navy is now stationed in the South seas or within reasona ble distance of the vicinity where the terrible tragedy is said to have been enacted. Tbe Jewess was nearly 500 tons burden. Captain Mayo, of Cbelsea, was tbe managing owner. Marks Gooings, of East Boston, Caleb Eaton and Frank Lane were part owners, i rank Lewis, of hast Bos ton, was one of the mates. On the three vessels there were probably thirty men, but there names cannot be ascertained, most of tbem having been shipped in foreign ports. Time will probably bring to light fuller particulars of their horrible fate. EVIDENCE OF APPITIOrAL KAll'S VPON THE BEVENl'E STAMTS P.

The Carleton Cotton and Woolen Mills, on Hamilton street, between Twen ty-third and Twenty-fourth Sts., were totally destroyed by fire to-day. Tbe fire broke out in one of tbe drying rooms. A heavy wind prevailed, wbich rendered the operations of the firemen to some extent, useless. The concern is Known as tbe tsruner s Mills, having formerly been operated by J. P. Bruner & Sons.
