The result Of Lowry's second race for Con-
Ercss ought to e1tinguish any aspirations the
Judge has for a seat tn the National Sanht-
drim.
From all accounts Shanks Is still running
in the Eleventh District. He gains so votes
in Wabash, and increases The majority Of
1861 In Upton aud Hamilton. In Howard
County, where the brcad-and.bntteF patriots
under the lead Of the notorious T. G. Phillips
hoped to reduce our majority, the loss Is

Union majority In Stats.. II

The majority for the State ticket, however
VII! probably exceed this By about thou
sand: For instance, in tho Eighth District.
Mr. Orth, owing to local troubles, ran far
where the Union minority on Congress, two
years ago, was G51, his opponent has a ms
jority OF forty seven yotes-An immeuae gatu,
and which can only be accounted for By the
stories which relate the lavish manner in
which Purdue used his money. During
ant, and claimed Pusdue's election but
their enthusiasm subsidized as the later and
surcr adrices came In. Orth's majority can
not go below 800, and may reach to double
ta.ut amount. The State ticket, however,
rrns far ahead of orta.. We carry Tippe-
one hundred aud 1fty,- and elect our Y hole
ticket, including one Senator and two Rep
resentatiyes. So In Carroll, where the State
ticket las about CITY maturity, osth has only
some ten.
The result In the First District, while not
vas largely brought about by the votes OF
hcntucky rebels: Judge DeBrulcr, the
Union candidate for Congress, aided BIZ the
Jealous efforts Of such men as Lieutenant
Governor Baker, Colonel J. ". Foster, Gen
ernl William Harrow and others, made most
thorough canvass, and q fair vote would have
ut least reduced Niblack's majority below
one thousand. In Fanderburg County our
majority two years ago was et9, and NE con.
f1dently looked for large Increase this ycar.
but the TACT is We have lost about 100. If re.
ports arc correct. Evansville was filled full
OF rebels, and our candidate for Treasurer,
Colonel Rhinclauder, was actually beaten.
Indeed, MY figures for Niblack may be too
small, for Dubots County may increase her
Democratic majority. 1t was large enough
Two years nEo. being 1,e03, but there Is no
telling what 1t may do this year
The deteat Of the gallant General Gresham,
III the Second District, VAS not unexpected
by small majority, but the result Ii over
1Fhclmfng,. and shows beyond doubt that
immense frauds have been rcrpetratcd by
the Democracy. 4 careful count Of the dis.
trlct month sgo only gaze Kerr 500 mai
ity, and our friends at New Albany had
strong hopes Of beating him altogether.
But the figures In Clark aud Floyd counties
alone bare upset all such calculations.
Clarke Is reported as giving 500, md Floyd
I'll Democratic majority. Two years ago
the former gave but 519 and the latter but
233. The Democracy claim about 1896
majority In tie district, but ! hardly thluk
they eau show 30 much. In the Third Dis
tIict Hunter beats Harrington handsomely.
Since began this letter / have received a
telegram Which says: Hunters majority
in The district Is 49," jefferson County
didn't do as well as she might have done,
but We do not complain.
William S. Holman, Democrat, goes to Con-
Fress from the Fourth district by perhaps 800

crate army. Gen. Pickett, since the close
of the war, has made. application for par
don, in which he admits the execution Of
the alleged deserters but claims hat it was
done under the orders of the Confederate
Government Congress called for informa-
tion upon the case, whereupOn General
Pickett addressed note to General Grant,
detailing the circumstances under which
he ordered the executions in question:.
Gen. Grants Endorsement upon the letter
Is characteristic of the leniency which
nearly all of our most distinguished
Generals are disposed to exercise toward
their fallen foes. He says that the United
States, during the war, voluntarily ac-
corded the rebels belligerent rights; and
that the parole given by the rebels at the
time they laid down their arms, protects
them from all punishments other than those
which it is lawful to inhict upon any other
belliSerent. He further says, that although
the punishment inflicted by Ggn. Pickett
upon the deserters may appear to have
been harsh, yet IL must be remembered
that it was done in a time of war, when 1t
was necessary for him to retain the SER
vices OF every man whom he could reach.
He indorses Gen. Pickett as an "hOnOrable
man." and concludes by saying that he
does not see show any good, either to the
friends OF the deceased, or by fixing an
example for the future, can be secured by
his trial alnow." Probably our Senators and
Representatives who never saw field of
battle, will be able to see what it puzzles
Gen. Grant to discover. But inaslnuch
as Gen. Grant has had more practical ex
perience in rebellion than the whole of
Congress combined, tits likely the majority
ofhonest thinking people will agree with
him in his conclusions on this particular
case.-PLaiN Dealer. .

The Beauty Of Ice.

Witness the phenomena OF capitalization,
to appreciate which we need go no further
than the freezing of water aud the fOrma-
tion OF snow. Prof. Tyndall deftly and
delicately dissects block of ice by means
of beam from his electric lamp, pulling
the crystal edifiee to pieces by accurately
reversing the order OF its architecture.
Silently and symmetrically the crystalizing
force had built the atoms up; silently and
symmetrically does the electric beam take
them down. Here we have star, and there
h star, and rs the action continues, the ice
appears to resolve itself into stars, each one
possessing six rays, each one resembling a
beautiful siX-petalled flower. BY shifting
the lens to and fro, new star-howers are
brought into view; and as the action con-
tinues. the eedges of the petals become SER
rated, spreading themselves out like fern
leaves, Probably few are aware of the
beauty latent in block of common ice. o';
! Only think, continues our eloquent
countryman, of lavish nature operating,
thus throughout the world! Every atom
of the solid ice which sheets the frozen
lakes Of the north, has been fixed accord
ing to this law. Nature "lays her beams
in music,p and it is the function of science
to purify our organs so as to enable us to
hear the strain. To many persons a block
of ice may seem of no more interest and
beauty than block of glass but, In real.
ity, 1t bears the same relation to glass that
an orat0rio OF Handel does to the cries in a
market place. The Ice is music; the glass
is noise. The ice is order; the glass is con-
fusion. In the glass, molecular forces con
lstitute an inextricably entangled skein in
the ice they are woven into symmetfic
web of the wonderful texture Just de-
scribed.--AH the Year Round. s.s'.. ~

Napoleon could scale the Alps, but, alack-

In Egyptbc pretended to snoke--as he
held out his possible conversion to lshmal-

RouStan's duty to set it going. If his mas

Afterward, when the Persian Embassa-
dor presented him with very handsome
pipe, he ordered his ualet de chdulJre, Con-

applied to the mouth OF the bowl, all that
remained was to make the tobacco catch

A Man Commits Suicide from the
Conviction that AAe Is His own
(srandfnIher. TH... .I.. H.f. 81

A melancholy case of suicide occurred on
Sunday, on the Podunk farm, near Titus
vile. The name of the unfortunate man
mas not yet been discovered, but it appears
from the following pathetic effusion found
in his left boot, that the suicide was not iu-
stigated by the exploration of "dry hoies,"
as at first supposed:
81 married widow who had a grown
up daughter. My father visited our house
very often, fell in love with my step
daughter and married her. SO my father
became my son-in-law, and my step-daugh-
ter my mother, because she was my fathers
vile. Sometime afterwards my wife bad a
'on; he was my fathers brother-in- law
and my uncle, for he was the brother Of my
step-mother. My fathers wife, /. e., my
step-daughter, had also sou; he was, OF
course, my brother, and in the meantime
my grandchild, for he was the son Of my
daughter. Ny wife was my grandmother,
because she was my mothers mother. i
was my wife's husband and grandchild at
the same time; and as the husband of a per-
sons grandmotherish his grandfather, was
my own grandfather" a..i... ... -...
We must confess that it was rather sin
gular complication of Kindred, but we see
no reason for committing suicide on the dis
covery that your wife is connected to YOU
by two of the tenderest ties in the world OF
love. We hold that their felicity should be
the greater in consequence.-PittsJurgt
