J., which resulted in as great a surprise as the Indiana elec tion. Last October the city went Dem ocratic by nearly 3000 majority, and on Tuesday last the Republicans - have a majority of about 2300. The Republican papers are now claiming that the State Is sure for Garfield next month, and great exertions will be made from now till November to secure that result. New York, New Jersey and Connecti cut are all in fact doubtful for either party and both sides will now transfer their forces to these States, as they will be looked upon as the battle ground for the balance of the campaign. Ohio and Indiana. The elections in the above two States, which took place on Tuesday, show re sults that surprised both parties. That the Republicans would-carry Ohio, was generally expected, but Indiana was thought safe for the Democrats. The re sults are, a Republican victory in Ohio, by about 20,000 on the State ticket, and the election of 15 out of the 0 members of Congress. This is a gain of five in the Congressional delegation. Indiana electB Porter, Republican, gov ernor by 6,000 majority. The Congres sional delegation will probably be eight Republicans and five Democrats. In the present congress the delegation is six Republicans, six Democrats and one Greenback Dem. The Legislature is close, but the indications are, that it is Republican, which secures a Republican United States Senator to succeed Mc Donald. . Terrible Accident. Troy, N. Y., October 15. A special to the Telegram says: At a republican demonstration last night at Johnson ville, Charles Nutting, Mellie Welling, Charles Thomas, John Fay, and a Frenchman whose name is unknown, were injured by the explosion of a can non. Nutting's leg was shattered, and Welling's left arm was torn to pieces, and has since been amputated. It is thought the latter will die. Charles Thomas, eight years of age, had his left leg torn to pieces, and will prob ably die. Fay and the Frenchman were slightly injured. Pieces of the gun flew in all directions, and many persons had narrow escapes. Five Hundred Deaths from Starvation. San Francisco, October 13. The revenue cutter Corwln brings news that at St. Lawrence Island, out of 700 in habitants 500 were found dead of star vation. Traders had introduced liquor among them, causing them to neglect laying up the usual supply of provisions. The officers of the Corwln, express the opinion that the Jeannette wintered on the Siberian shore and is now there west of North Cape. The Corwin could not get far enough west to verify this belief on account of the ice. Tho Fool Killer Needed. Commander-in-Chief of Heaven and Earth is the .title which Aaron Davis has bestowed upon himself. He is var iously regard as a lunatic, a knavend a divinity. Over a hundred persons hold ing the latter belief have gathered around him in a colony at Walla Walla, Oregon. He is about to marry his son to bis daughter, in obedience to a com mand which he says he has received from heaven, in order that a line of su perior rulers may be founded. His fol lowers are servile in their allegiance, and will hold no intercourse with outsiders. The " fool killer" is badly needed In that vicinity. Too Many Coals In the House. Aaron Opdyke Kitchen, a milkman of Adams street, Brooklyn, has sued his wife, Surah Black Kitchen for absolute divorce in the Brooklyn City Court. Tbe action is the result of the discovery of a 6trange overcoat, recently, by Mr. Kitchen in his home. Ex-Assembly, man Thomas Munday claimed the over coat, and when Mr. Kitchen refused to give it up he caused the latter's arrest for larccney. Munday, however, with drew his complnlnt,aud gave Mr. Kitch en a note exonerating him from all suspicion of theft.' Mr. Kitchen , after making Investigation, began a divorce suit, and ex-Assembly man Munday is named in the complaint. A Frog that Went Ducking. A Plantsville druggist has preserved in alcohol a huge bullfrog, and in its mouth a young duck. The history of the pair is as follows : Mr. Freeman, of Plalnville, had from time to time missed young ducks, In all some twenty or twenty-five, for whose mysterious disappearance he was unable to account. Determined to fathom the mystery he watched for the enemy, and surprised him In the shape of a large bullfrog, as he Belzed one of the young ducks and was in the act of swallowing it, when Mr. Freeman put an end to the sport by rapping him over the head with a club. The two were preserved just exactly as they were taken. Ketu Ha ven rrflladiwn. Shot for a Deer. A couple of young men up in Shawa no county Wisconsin, were hunting for deer of them accidentally shot his com panion. They agreed to halloo to one another when separated In the woods.

Three Children Burned to Death. St. Louis, October 14. The residence of Jesse Jordan, about a mile from Car linville, Illinois, was burned on Tues day night, and three children, aged six, ten and thirteen years respectively, per Islied in the flames. Latest from the catalogue of mean est men : A Rhode Islander, arrested for not paying fare on a Sunday train on the Boston and Providence Railroad, raised the point through his counsel that the running of Sunday trains was a violation of the law, and that the com pany had no legal right to collect fares. The court sustained the point and the man was discharged. What kind of law do we have in this blessed country, anyhow? Atlantic City, October 13. Freder ick Kushensmen, aged about 43 years, proprietor of the New York House, Michigan and Atlantic Avenues, fatally shot himself while gunning on the beach below the Excursion Houses this morn ing.

C3f A train from Quiucy was fired upon, the other evening, near Hannibal. Two shots passed through tbe rim of tbe engi neer's bat, and one shot evidently intended for the conductor, hit a brakeman.

The little ones were playing about the wheelbarrow when by some moans It was upset, one of tbe barrels of apples falling upon the little girt and crushing the life out of her. UTTbe indignant olerk of a New York steamer is the victim of a' joke, and a rather stern joke too, judging from the fol lowing personal in a recent Herald : The lady who left the child in charge of the clork of steamer Bjlvan Dell last Sunday, at Newburg, will have the kindness to call next Sunday and reclaim it. The clerk is unmarried, and is not in want of a family. JCSfMr. Reftsler of llarrlsburg went with a party of friends in a wagon to the moun tain Sunday morning, and while up in a tree for the purpose of gathering chestnuts, a limb upon which he was standing broke.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Washikgton, D. C, October 13, 1880. The Republicans of the city "took their turn" last night and revenged themselves on those Democrats who a month ago, rejoiced over Maine. The streets and avenues were full of exalting men as soon as definite returns from Ohio aud Indiana were received, and the time and chances between Octobor 12th and Novenv ber 2nd, seemed to have no place In mens minds. I have never known a greater display or Interest In this city In return s from any election. The District of Columbia sends greetings to the thirty-eight States, and asks their interest in a National Fair, to be held annually in Washington, at which every production of every section of country shall be represented. Letters to the several Governors of States have been sent, and favorable answers from several bceu received. The subject will be brought before Congress at lis next session, though not with a view to pecuulary assistance. It Is believed that the common good would be ad vanced by permanent State representation of material Interest at such a central point as tho Capitol of tbe country, and there Is little doubt that the small necessary expense would bo cheerfully paid by the people of each State. During the last few days many Southern men business men have been In town, most of them on their way to Baltimore to witness the ceremonies incident to that city's 150th anniversary. Every one of these men with whom I had an opportunity or conversing, represented business affairs In bis neighbor hood as being In better condition than at any time In years. Most of them, too, said that political feeling was much less powerful among Southern men than formerly, and that nothing but the Presidential election Induced any one to take part at all In tbe campaign. I have never before heard from representative Southern men as gratifying an account of affairs tu tbe States of Virginia and North and South Carolina as Is now given. At the end of this week every Cabinet officer except Secretary of War, Ramsey, will be In the city It Is said. There Is no later returns from the Preeldeut than that of a week since, to the effect that be would return here about the flrtt of November. Justice Clifford, of the Supreme Court, Is not as well this morning, and his family and frleuds have given up all Idea of his ever re turning to the performance of his Judicial dutlos. Senator Edmunds Is In the city, for the first time since the adjournment. He Is In excellent health. General Butler and Senator Carpen ter, with Senator Edmunds are In attendance on the Supreme Court. Besides the lottery cases, In which Senator Carpenter appears, he and General Butler are engaged In an import ant Florida Rail Road case Involving questions of great Interest between the State and several citizens of WaEhlngtou.
