Well Done Michigan!

The feliable Democracy of the
Peninsrilar State have come ont Of
the recent conflict With merited
honor. They have gained two Mem
bers of Congress, reduced the MAORI
ties of the others mors than one-half
bringing down the majority OF
the State ticket to. small number
Increased nine members of the
State Senate. and some eighteen in
the lower branch of the Legislature.
William A. Howard, the defeated
Black Republican for Congress,
in the First District Of Michigan,
is one Of the loudest Kansas shfiekers
in the present House Of Repfesen-
latives. He was one of the leaders
last winter Of the opposition He was
lone Of their most active aud strong
men, and bis loss in the Congress:
which is to select Seward to the Presi
dency," incalenlable His loss il
over thousand since bis election il
1856, when Michigan was oyerrul
with the Mustang fever.
The Detroit Free Press says:
4 All this have the Democrat,
done. What other State has equal
ed it? Missouri did a good thin,
in defeating Blair, but Michigan ha
done equally we'll in defeating How
ard. Illinois has done nobly in cleo
ting a Democratic Legislature an
five Democratic Congressman, bu
: she did-the same two years ago. |
seems to Us that Michigan takes th
lead.

last Saturday evening. A sermon
was preached at night by Rev. NJ. II.
Bone. after which the Presbytery
was organized and opened by prayer
from Rev. Mr.. Wells, Of Columbia,
Tenn.
On Monday the proceedings in
regard to the re-inierment of Rev.
Robert Donnell, and the erection OF
suitable monument, over his grave,
took place. The ceremonies ssre
solemn and imposing 1t would be
useless for Us to attempt to euioglze
the character of this great and good
man. He was well known to the
least and greatest in this community
He was one of the pioneers in the
cause of Christ, in this section
For near fifty years he was an active
minister Of the gospel, dispensing
its great and solemn truths, at great
sacrifice for the hope of a mansion
in that Kingdom not made with
hands. In SO doing he has erected
a monument 10 the hearts Of his
countrymen more lasting thar one
built of stone. His works will live
after him, and many an orphan
child and widowed heart, now lives
| to call him blessed. Athens Neags.
