ELEcrIoS REruRNs.-So far as heard from. the
Democratic townships in this county have all in
creased their majorilies. Warren township gave
l52, and Pike IS majority. We did not learn
the figures from Franklin and lawrence, but
their maiorities are greater than they were last
TALL. Outside of this precinct the Democratic
vote and majority is largely increased. The poll
in this township is only an indication that the
Democrats are willing To submit to mob rule.
Hancock county. which gave last fall 300 Of a
Republican majority. went Democratic on Mon
day by 800.
Madison county gave largely increased Dem
ocratic majority.

To Members Of the Legislature.

If members of the House desire to satisfy
the general expectation of short session OF
the Legislature, the first thing for them to do
is to make their returns to the proper officers
on the first day Of the session, or the day
preceding. The following certificates hould
be brought by each Representative
l. His credentials
2 Certificate of votes for S'a,e Officers.
8. Certificate of votes for Member Of Con
g:ess.
4. Certificate of votes for Senators.
). Certificate of votes for county officers.
6. Abstract of the Grard List.
Where any town is unrepresented, the rep
reseniative of an adjoining town shculI bring
the returns.
Promptitude in delivering these papers
and especially in furnishing the abstract of
the grad List, will do much toward short
ening the session.-WaHon's Daily.

DREAM OF a QUAkf.R LADY-There Is a
beautiful story It'd of rious old Quaker
lady who was addicted 10 smoking tobacco.
She had INDUCED in this habit until it haG
increased so much upon her that she not
only smoked her pipe large portion Of the
day, but frequently sat up in her bed for this
purpose in the night. After one of these
nocturnal entertainments, she tel asleep, and
dreamed that she died and approached hea-
ven. Meeting an angel, she asked him if her
name was written in the book OF life. He
disappeared. but replied, upon returning,
that he could not find if. 'Oh,' she said. DO
look again; it must be there He e1au,in-
ed again, but returned with sorrewful face,
saving. 1T is not there = Oh said she, in
agony, it must be there; ] have the assur-
.nce it is there, DO look again y The
angel was moved to tears by her entreaties,
and again left her to renew his search. After
a long absence he came back, his face radiant
with JOY, and exclaimed, we have found il
but it was so clouded with tobacco smoke
that We could hardly see it p The woman,
upon waking, Immediately threw her pipe
away, and never INDUCED in smoking again.

C My advice TO any American coming
10 England is that on arriving at Liverpool,
ne should purchase-1, stove-pipe hat; 2,

Then, though his sins be scarlet, his dress
will be en- regle. 1t matters not whether
his head have brains, if only i. has a stove
pipe outside. 1t matters not whether bis
throat deserves halter if it only has white
tie. His hand may be dyed in blood, but a
white glove will make it snOw-pure.-M. D.
