Pennsylvania has gone Republican. Altho'
we have not seen the official returns from the
election of Tuesday, yet the returns are sufici-
emily full to leave no doubt that the Opposition
have carried the State by a large majority. The
eleven Senators chosen this year are probably all
Opposition, which will leave only eleven Demo-
cratic Senators out of thirty three in the Senate
Last year the Senate stood seventeen Democrat
ic and sixteen Opposition. 1t seems probable
that the Opposition have elected sixty-fve out
of the hundred representatives, four less than
they elected last year. The gain in the Senate,
however more than compensates for the loss in
the House, the Opposition majority on joint bal
otbeing four more this year than last, when it
was thirty-seven

ONE Of the most remarkable physiological
facts known in medical history, has recently
developed itself in the case of a son, of Mr..
Charles Davis of Baltimore. The boy alluded
to is about IL years DID, and for long time
has been sufferer from spasms and severe chok-
ing spells, which no physician seemed to be able
to account for. Everything promising relief
was resortcd to, and indeed a small fortune was
spent for expectorants and other medicines.
But all proved of no avail, the boy grew no bet
ter and remained puzzle to everybody until a
week or two ago, when, by a sudden and violent
reich curious looking living frog was thrown
from his stomach. The boy, however, exper-
fenced but little relief by this election, and still
continues to gasp and choke and reteh, as though
he was possessed up to the mouth with similar
animals.

THE SHIP nearest in size to the Great Eastern
was built about thirty years ago She was
called the Baron of Renfrew, was six hundred
feet long, and was composed of large logs clam
ped together in the toughest manner. It was
predicted she would not steer, but she did, and
crossed the Atlantic She was nothing more
than imported timber patched together to avoid
the timber duty, and was broken up immedia-
tely on her arrival. The Government did not
approve of the arrangement, and prevented a
repetition Of the experiment.

WHILE Mr. James B. Corey and his wife were
driving through the city of Detroit, on the 1st
Of November last, they ran into an open, I'M
guarded sewer on Grand River street, whereby
Mrs. Corey was so badly injured that she has
been completely beridden ever since. All pow
er is lost over her body from her hips downward,
and there is no reasonable hope that she will
ever get better. She was young woman, 81
years old. Mr. Corey sued the city for damages,
and Wednesday last the jury gave him $780,
900 damages, the full amount claimed.

HORACE GREELEY has offered a special pre-
MUM for the best acre of six hundred bushels
of carrots, weighing, sixty pounds per bushels
that shall be raised by any boy of eighteen years
orunder. A few years ago carrots were brought
to the Fair that rated fourteen hundred bushels
to the acre and, when this considered, Mr..
Greeley's offer is as low as any carrots could
deserve premium.
