Tne odd Fellows. Celebration.

The Odd Fellows procession yesterday
exhibited as fine an array Of substantial
citizens as We have ever seen together.
The order was in full regalia, and with
fine band Of music, marched through the
principal streets, and about IL O'Clock
proceeded to the Methodist Church,
where very eloquent discourse was de-
livered by the Rev. Mr.. Gilmore. The
address is commended by all who lis
tened to it, as excellent in its spirit and
sentiments. A general desire is express
ed for its publication. After the services
at the Church the procession marched to
Marble Hall and partook Of q sumptuous
dinner, and in the afternoon and evening
a union meeting Of all the lodges and
guests was held at ]. o. IF. Hail.
Delegations were present from the lodges
at Henderson, o wensville. and Princeton.
From the latter place the morning train
brought in more than one hundred and
fifty passengers. Among them was our
correspondent. Burr Polk, Esq, Of
Princeton, and George w. German. OF
Owensville. an old and highly esteemed
graduate Of the Journal Office.

E1cctfOnsf an Kansas.

The entire capital of the Black Republicans
in Congress, and elsewhere, when urging the
rejection of the Lecompton constitution for
Kansas. consists of alleged frauds in the cleo
tions which took place before, and at the time
of the ratification of that instrument To
prove this. they refer to elections at Delaware
Crossing, Oxford, and other places, and de-
mand very great reduction of the number
of votes given at those precincts. 1t is a bad
rule that will not work both WAYS, and a
single comparison of Black Republican votes
given at Leavenworth City on the 4th of JAN
nary and the 9th of March of the present year,
is conclusive of one thing-either that there
were great frauds at the election there on the
4th of January, or that there was no interest
whatever in the election of the 4th of March,
We have no sort of doubt, that there were
gross frauds at the January election, and this
is shown by the figures. Then, in the Leavan-
worth City precinct, il is claimed that 1881
votes We're given: and that the Black Republic
cans had majority of 925 votes-the whole
number conceded to the Democratic ticket in
December previous, being 256. Two months
later, on the 18th of March, at special cleo
ton for members ofthe Constitutional Conven
ton, the highest number of votes given for
any one candidate was 65f. If the January
vote was not fraudulent one, what became
of all the Black Republicans in March!-.St

An Omission.

The Legislature omitted to pass an act to
detach a sufficiency of Lincoln and add to
Bedford to make the latter a democratic
county. The proposition was made in the
Senate, at first we believe by bill, passed, and
was killed in the House then it was passed
by the Senate as an amendment, and was
again rejected by the House, and rested at
the final adjournment as one of the S''nate's
messages Enacted upon. This result in the
House was wholly owing to the fact that dur
ing the session Of 1854, proposition was
made by which the political complexion of
Shelby county would have been permanently
changed; andMr. COOPER, whose party would
have been benefited by the change, voted
against it. MrCoorER, being now the represen-
tative of Bedford county, earnestly protested
against its being thus changed; and thus saved
the county lines from alteration. Such are the
results of fair dealing, and, for this well as
his general industry and ability as watchful
and faithAil representative, the county of
Bedford may well be proud of HENRY

"OLp VIRGINNY NEVER TIRE."-lf the
scene of the following item, which we cut
from the Wheeling Lnteii,gooer was located
anywhere save in Virginia, We should doubt
its truth:
We saw yesterday, going up toward the up
per ferry team OF tour animals-a horse, a
pony, n mule and n bull. The horse had the
heaves, the pony was blind. the mule was
lame, and the bull had no provision for hy
time. In the wagon, which was an ordinary
one, there sat white man, u crippled niger.
aud tame skunk frailly bound with wisp
of straw. The white man held the lines. the
team held its own, and the nigger held the
skunk, and they all moved forward. To
make this worthy of it's place, il is essential
TO say that II Is true.
