The Kentucky Elections.

Such returns from Kentucky as we have re-
morning. The Opposition have not done as
well as they expected; not near so well as
they deserved. They have failed to snatch
the standards of victory from the Democra-
cy. 1t is not necessary at this time to give
reasons for this result. What we have to do
with Just now the result itself To the luke
warm and responding it might be paralyzing
in its effects; but to the true-hearted who
sustain good cause, it can make no differ
ence in their zeal and determination. They
will but become more determined and more
infexible in their opposition to democracy and
its demoralzing tendencies. OF this latter
class we regard the Opposition of Tennessee.
IF Kentucky be lost, their position is but
rendered the more important. 1t falls to their
proud lot to throw themselves into the breach,
and to make our noble State the nucleus and
rallying point of glorious reformation.
Stand forth, then, men of the Opposition
of Tennessee, yours is now the post of honor.
Beat down the legions of Democracy and
save your country. Let not one of you finch
in such cause. We have higher issues and
more important aims--inasmuch as the cur
rency, prosperity, and enterprise of the State
are in the scale-than our Kentucky breth-
rem had, and we have therefore stronger in
centives to exertion. Let us show to the
country a spectacle Of devotedness to duty,
and gain a triumph which shall forever reflect
upon us the most exalted honor.

Icebergs Encountered by the North
RritOn.

The North Briton discharged her pilot at
the Belle Buoy, Liverpool, at 1.30 p. NJ, July
18th. Has had head wind nearly the entire
passage.-On Wednesday, the 10th inst, at
Las P. NJ, saw large iceberg and continued
to see icebergs all the afternoon. At night.
thick fog set in, and we proceeded on our
course very slowly. Soon after two o'clock
on the morning of the oath, the fog cleared
away, when immense icebergs hove in sight
in all directions.-At about four O'Clock, the
whole Atlantic ahead of us, as far as we could
see, was covered with fields of ice, presenting
apparently perfect barrier to our progress
westward.
The course of the ship was accordingly i'm
mediately changed to the south, and we steam
ed along in that direction until passage was
discovered through the ice, when the steamer
was again headed westward. At one time, in
the afternoon of the 2lst, there were fifty-six
icebergs in sight. We entered the straits of
Belle Isle at six P. NJ, on Thursday and on
that evening saw many icebergs in the Straits.
AT one time seventeen were in sight. Early
on Friday morning we saw two icebergs,
which had forced their way through the
Straits. We were in the vicinity of ice for
more than thirty-six hours, during part of
which time the temperature was only five de-
grees above the freezing point.

Of the continued rule of the Democracy, can

there will not be one such in the whole length

unworthy hands-that no one will lag behind
that even the infrm will be provided with

have and utter his voice in the right govern
ment of the country. There are great ques-
tons at issue-questions involving the integ-
rity and stability of the Union. The reckless
tampering with the gravest questions by the
leaders and demagogues Of the Democratic
party; the amount and degree Of corruption
which has been infused into every branch Of
the public service; and the current threats
of dsuniou ia the event Of their defeat and
expulsion from place and power. have driven

NOTEWORTHY KINDNESS The considerate
Geographic Reporter at Louisville, for the
associated Press of this city, is gentleman
of most charitable disposition. A marked
evidence of this fact was contained in his des-
patches, published in the city papers yester-
day morning. To four of the daily papers he
sent that, MALLORY for Congress over Holt

american, he suppressed the words, "being a

or the tender sensibilities of our neighbors,
stands greatly to the credit of our Louisville

~ by informing them of even "smdH oppo-
'sition gain" He would not inhet the sligh-

INVITATION OF A VERY SERIOUS DECEPTION
PRAoTIsED UPON Mrs. DUDLEY.-Mrs. Belinda
Dudley, the patroness of the Dudley Obser-
vatory, has become involved in a very grave
difficulty in regard to her property. Two
years ago she made her will Recently it was
rumored in Albany that Mrs. Dudley had
conveyed all her property in trust to Rutger
B. Miller, Jr.. and an investigation led to the
discovery of the fact that such deed was on
record in the Clerks Office of the county
of Oneida. The subscribing witness is Rut-
ger B. Miller, father of the person in whose
favor the conveyance is made. In il she re-
yokes all former devises, wills, testamen.s
and powers whatsoever made by her. The
questionable circumstances about the deed
are, that she went out of the city of Albany
for an attesting witness that she never con-
suited her confidential business agent. William
A. Deitz, about it, nor her usual legal advi-
ser. Mrs. Dudley now says she signed the
paper at the suggestion of Mr.. Miller, senior,
under the superstition that she was executing
power of attorney authorizing the adjust
ment of some difficulties growing out of
the Dudley Observatory controversy. The
amount of property disposed of by the deed
is about S250,000. Some legacies are charg-
ed upon it in the deed. but the bulk goes to
young Miller. upon condition that he assumes
the name of her father, Rutger Blocker.

Il Singular AGaIr-A Man Falls in
Love with his own Daughter.

Love Win ms own Daugnters
From the Albany Standard, July IA.
Some fifteen years ago, a man named
George Bristol left this city for the shores of
the Pacific. At the time he left, he had a
wife and one child, the latter only three
years old. They resided in the town of Wes-
terlo. At that time his wife and child were
living with her father. Some two years af-
ter the father and mother of the woman died,
their estate was disposed of to satisfy mort
cages, and Mrs. Bristol and her child were
thrown upon the cold charities of the world
for a living. She was very feeble in health.
and, OF course, was unable to take care of
herself
The mother and child came to this city,
where they lived for some five years, at the
expiration of which time the mother died,
and the girl was alone in the world, to do as
best she could--Being now about ten years
old, and smart, active, good-looking girl,
she soon found a situation in respectable
family. Here she remained till she was ff
teen years old, when she bound herself out to
| milIner. She served three years at that
business, and had become mistress of her
profession. Now, the strangest part of this
| revelation is to be told. The girl is now
over eighteen years old, and a perfect model
| of her sex.
During this long interval, it must be re-
| membered that the girl lost all track OF her
| father, Her beauty attracted the attention
| and admiration of spruce-looking gentle
man who met her on Broadway. He was a
man OF about forty years, but his appearance
| did not indicate that he had ever seen over
twenty-five summers An acquaintance was
made between her and the gentleman above
alluded to, and a final engagement entered
into for marriage. The day was set and all
the necessary arrangements made for the GER
| emony.
On the appointed day the pair, accom-
panied by their respective friends, met for
the purpose of having the plighted ones
Joined in wedlock. just before the minister
commenced the marriage rites an old couple
entered. They were formerly neighbors of
| the Bristol family, and had watched the girl
grow up from infancy, and were now anxious
| to see the choice she had made in partner
for life. Imagine the surprise of all about,
when the old couple above referred to re-
cognized in the "man of the girls heart"
her own Legitimate father.
For moment all WAS amaZement and sad
ness. but on the state of things being fully
realized, the scene turned to one of Joy. An
| absent father had recovered lost daughter,
and the assembled throsg of friends were
highly delighted that the affair had resulted
as it did. The love that had before burnt SO
brightly between the twain had now become
flame inextinguishable as the fires of
Vesuvius. A queer world, this.

ARTEsIAN WEIL--The signs for water in
the Artesian well are most cheering, the au-
ger, having struck the sandstone at the depth
of ], 974 feet penetrated IA feet, making the
total depth of the well 1883. The boriugs
seem to wash away in some unaccountable
manner, as the pump brings nothing but clear
water to the surface. If there is a strong
subterranean stream. as supposed, we may
expect to hear of its being reached before
long, as it will be found in the sandstone
strata. All hands about the well are highly
encouraged, declaring that the citizens of
Columbus will wake up some fine morning
and see column of water arising from the
State yard, with force enough to wash the
whole city away.-O. S. Journal z
