Vote of IllinOls.

We were a trifle too fast last week in CIV
ing the electoral vote Of this state to Ere
mont. We had forgotten that down In
Egypt" they had not yet closed the polls,
and that the Quakers intended to VOTE
These taken into the count this week make
quite a difference in the footings.
We give below a table of the vote on Pre-
sident and Governor in this state as far as
received officially, and Of counties not heard
from officially the reported majoritics on
President only are given. The returns foot
up majority for buchanan ovcI Fremont of
about 1000, which will not vary goo from
the official majority. On governor, some
sixteen counties remain to be heard from,
which give buchanan some 10000 majority.
As Bssell, in the counties given below, is
some 10. 900 ahead of Richardson, it is not
probable that in the remaining counties this
majority can be overcome, so that we are
reluctantly compelled to concede the election
of Bisscll by three or four thousand MAORI
ty. Whether the balance of the democratic
state ticket has shared the fate of Richard
son, we are not now able to determine, al
though we think it more than probable it
has. r....

FROM TIE PLAISs.-The Omaha City Ne
brGskian, of October 29th, announces the
arrival Of train from Salt Lake city bring
ing the startling intelligence that Col. A. w.
Bab5ctt, Secretary of Utah Territory, and
two men who were accompanying him, were
killed on the plains about one hundred and
fifty miles beyond Fort Laramie, by band
OF Chcyennes, numbering some twelve or
fifteen, who had watched the party ever
since they left the Platte river, and fell upon
them the first time they were scattered
enough to make their game sure. They had
stopped to encamp for the night, and were
engaged in different directions getting wood,
water, and forage for the stock, when the
Indians made their appearance. The Col
became very much excited, and commenced
firing his pistols before they were in shoot
ing distance, and altogether without effect,
after which he fought desperately until he
was struck by Ratchet from behind, which
felled him, and he was Immediately dis
patched. One Of the men attempted to as
sist him, but Intellectually, as the other would
offer no resistance at all until they were
both cut down and horribly mangled.
Col. Ii. was extensively known as public
man throughout the western country, and
was highly honored by all who knew him.
He was formerly a resident of Council
Bluffs, where he still owned considerable
property, and as a public officer he stood
high in the confidence Of the people ard
the government.

CirCuif Court.

The circuit court for this county met on
Monday. The business of the week has
been mostly on the chancery side of the
docket. The Jail is full OF prisoners, and
the grand jury have found plenty of indict-
meDts, but in most cases the prisoners are
not ready for trial, and a number of them
have asked for continuance.
Mclaughlin, the man who last Christmas
killed man at the railroad tank in this city,
was arraigned on the charge, and plead
guilty of manslaughtor. He has not yet
been sentenced.

This amount Of four hundred and forty
thousand, obtained in three months from the
farming interest along the line, is sufficient
to indicate the demand for the oaI, a. well
as their ability to make it and the use they
have for it,
In addition to this amount Of stock actual
~ subscribed the board received from the
business men Of Jack sonvi.lc through the
president Of our board Hon. Richard Yates,
the pledge of one hundred thousand more,
which foots up TO within sixty thousand the
entire estimated expense Of our road, and
that remaining balance viii be made up prin
cipally by the people Of Menard, who are
both able and willing
The beard feel we'll assured that they will
be able, by stock assessments, to grade,
bridge and tie the road, which is all a Rail
road company expect TO do from their own
pockets. The road then takes care OF itself,
and we have every contiden c that, if any
road can 20 into the money market with
credit, it is ours. Indeed, the Jacksonville
and Carrollton road has already been offered
the iron for their road for eight per cent
bonds at par. All these large transactions.
as every one knows, such as iron and cars,
are purchased by securities of various de,
scriptions instead of money and when our
road is ready for the iron, and that. too
without a dollar Of debt upon it. better sc.
curity cannot be asked or given than mort
gage bonds.
From the Marshall county line the compa-
ny are now ready to put the road under con-
tract to the Central Railroad in La Sale
county. The main object of this commence
ment is, to draw the attention of the people
OF Ottawa to this fact and to remind them
that from the proposed point of connection
with the Central Road to Ottawa, the dis
lance is but IS miles, the cost of grading,
ties, &c, of which would be some 800, 900.
Half of this would undoubtedly be made up
on the line of the road, so that Ottawa need
but subscribe some $500 to secure the
northern terminus of this road. Surely this
is an insignificant sum to secure so great an
object. Will not the capitalists and business
men Of Ottawa bestir themselves in this
matter?

The feature of news which has excited
most attention is an official paragraph in the
Uonitcur, that the English press publish
calumnies against the French government,
and holding out a menace thata continuance
of such conduct will break up the Anglo.
French alliance. The paragraph has caused
excitement both in England and France,

reported that the British government will

ACnoN OF SUGAR on THE TEErH.-The
Charleston Is. c. Meaicai journal states
that NJ Larek, in the course of mis- investi-
cations on the teeth, arrived at the following
conclusions
1st Refined sugar, from either cane or
beet, is I'M urious to healthy teeth, either by
immediate contact with these organs or by
the gas developed, owing to its stoppage in
the stomach. - .
ID If tooth is macerated in a saturated
solution Of sugar, it is so much altered ia
the chemical composition that it becomes
gelatinous, and its enamel opaque, spongy
and easily broken. f-rf-
Sd. This N Publication is due, not to free
acids but to a tendency of sugar to combine
with the calcareOus basis of the tooth.
The foregoing conclusions are correct, and
candies and condiments should be avoided.
They should be kept from children especial
