KENTUCKY ELECTIoN.-The telegraph informs
us that eighty eight OF The one hundred and ten
counties in Kentucky have been beard from since
the late election in that State. In these eighty
eight counties, Judge BraRilette the Union can
ddate for the position of Governor Of that State
ponent, of AZ 1855 votes! If eighty eight coun-
ties give majority of 47,9S5, then one hundred
aud ten counties, in the same proportion, will
give majority OF over 10000. Making all just
allowances, it is certain that the State Of Ken
tucky has gone for the Union ticket by at least
$1,000 majority. The first election in that State
after the commencement of the rebellion resulted
in an ant-secession or Union majority of CT 900,
The next election, from various causes reduced
this majority to about 10000. And now, when
great many thousands of loyal citizens of that
Slate are in the army the State rolls up the
majority above mentioned. Had all the soldiers
furnished from that State been in a position to
have voted. this majority would have been nearly
double. From this it will be seen that Kentucky
is one of the most de cided Union States in the
federation.-S T. Republic.

Few European writer's of the

and to know precisely what he
wishes to say; then he establishes
direct communication between
himself and his readers, and goes
at once to his work.
Mr.. Kinglake is an English bar
rister; was educated ut Trinity
College, Cambridge. and is now a
little over sixty years Of age.
He was called TO the bar in s27
and soon after made an extensive
tour in the East. Of which he wrote
home many graphic descriptions.
After his return he revised these
letters for publication, but could
find no publisher willing to take
the work so he threw the manu-
script aside and for several years
thought no more about it. Hap
lpening TO be conversing with Mr..
Olivier, a London publisher, on a
recent book Of travels, he offered
him his work if he would print it.
The offer was accepted, and
Eothen. as the book was called,
proved TO be one OF the freshest
and most entertaining books OF
travel of the day. 1t passed
through numerous editions in
England, was reprinted in this
country. and translated into the
/ principal languages of Europe
He has written but little besides
these two works.

of the great national struggle in
which We are engaged.
We desire to Go all Ia our

sturdy zeal Of her rulers IN the
struggle with traitors at home.

SOLDIERS, AID SOCIETY.

the Ladies of Winchester to the
fact that the Union League, or
Soldiers Aid Society" meets at
Temperance Hall next Wednesday,
July 18th, at 30 clock, Z. NJ, and
also to urge upon them the duty
of attending.
The League has met three times,
and at no meeting have more than
eight ladies been present. Can il
be possible. that our soldiers are
forgotten, or if remembered are not
cared for? Has all patriotism and
sympathy for our cause died out
of our hearts :. Are we so selfish
" absorbed in our own petty
pleasures or duties that we cannot
bestow little time and money to
alleviate the hardships and suffer
ings of our Husbands, Brothers
and Friends in the Army.
We daily hear reports of what
the towns about us are doing, and
have done. How, from the begin
ming of the war they have had Aid
Societies constantly at work fol
the soldiers. But what is the rec
ord Winchester has made.
And now when our hearts ar,
thrilling with JOY because of The
glorious victories our armies hav,
