YEsrERDAY.-If this city ever wit
messed a supremely quiet day it did so
yesterday. There was nothing doing
hut election, and even this passed of
without giving hungry reporter Il
morScl TO grab mp. The city was alarm
ingly quict. The RAIDS had taken their
wayward voters in charge, and the con-
sequence is that we cannot regale our
readers with any Police Court proceed
ings. If we asked any Rad the news,
ne would answer that they had the
most gigantic torch and turpentine pro-
cession on Wednesday night that was
ever witnessed on this continent and
if we, with the rectified essence of hon
esty depicted on our face, gently told
him we did not think so, he would get
his dander up" and call us "mali-
ciOus prevaricator." If we asked a
Democrat the news, he would reply
that the black party candidate for
Sheriff bought vote up in the First
Ward for barrel of -four. We contra
dicted this, because we understood that
twas only sack.
1t may not be inappropriate to state
i'll this connection that nothing of in
terest transpired yesterday, except the
election of candidates for various State
and county Offices! There was not a
single murder that We could hear of in
the length and breadth of this whole
city. No fair and langmshing maid
eloped with any eolorcd man. There
was no fight.
Yesterday was election day-that's
all. The sire cts and halls of business
were desolate. The saloons were closed
A mighty stiffness compassed the city
round about rs with mantle. Thu
whisper of an angel would have cause'
more CONSERVATION among our dozin!
multitude than did the confusion o
tongues at the Tower of Babel-per

HEADQUARTERs.-The Democratic
Headquarters were thrOnged last night
up to late hour with people eager to
learn the election news.
Short and spicy speeches were made,
interspersed with reading the city re-
turns, showing Democratic majority,
which kept the crowd in remarkably
good humor and brought forth cheer
after cheer.
The Radical Club Room was about
half full. and some of the speakers tHH.
One of the speakers, who wears an i'm
perial," became very blasphemous, and
got very angry and very excited at the
Democrats, and with terrible emphasis
enunciated that President Johnson was
nothing but the "Son of an old tan-hill
woman" [Cheers.

"WT ARE NOT AFRAID

OUR SISTERS WILL MARRY SIGGERS."
The idea seemed to be that, nOtwith-
standing the persistent efforts of the
Radicals in favor of negro suffrage, that
party was in some danger of losing the
negro vote, and they thought it nee
essary. while disclaiming any fear, TO
give the reason why they were mot
afraid" That the artist failed to put
a period after the word ''afraid" is
nothing to the point. The arrangement
of the lines conveyed the proper i'm
preston.

ILLUSTRATIVE OF THE "sCoRN" OF THE LEAGUE.
From the Philadelphia Sunday Mercpry,7
ITO be printed in deep black, and framed in
Shoddy, in the secret Council Chamber Of the
League House, as perpetual reminder of the
way the people of Philadelphia 'backed the
League DOWN on the 28th Of August, 1866 !;
and to this end it is to be read at each secret
meeting. and to be drunk" as is usual, at the
League House.
BY GEORGE, BROKERS'
When the Leaguers" heard that the President
Would visit our city, their orders were sent
10 his honor the Mayor, their Instrument
AND the smooth-faeed Lynd-that the Leaguers
meant
TO show their scornn for the President.
Then out of town. the great Councilman went
And the Mayor went of a-fshing.
But the people took the matter in hand;
For there's decency left in the men of this land;
And they taught the Insignificant band
A lesson they'll probably understand
Ihey upset the scheme SO c1nningly planned
by the League and Lynd so underhand,
And the Mayor who went a-ishing.
They left the mill, and they shut up the shop;
They let the hammer and the hatchet drop:
They resolved that day all labor to stop,
In order to make these fellows hop.
They knocked in the head at the very first pop,
The scheme Of the League and Lynd. the fop,
And his Honor who went a-fshing.+
The streets were crowded, the depot was crammed,
The route from end to end, was jammed
" No room for the Masses" SO close were they
crammed;
The plan Of the League was terribly damned; :"
Their name, in eternal disgrace, was embalmed,
And 50 was Lynd's, and the Mayors, who
slammed
An excuse to be off a-fshing.
But Johnson came in with cause for pride,
And Grant and Farragnt sat by bis side;
And Seward the statesman-eagle-
Saw how the city had been beed,
For the arms Of the people were opened wide,
In spite of the League, and Lynd beside
And the mayor, who went a-fshing.
VI.
Who cares for the councils? the people are out
Who wants any mayor, when they are about?
Oh, Michael McMorton just hear that shout
Of the yox Populi, honest and stout
1t put poor Lynd and the League to rout,
And settled your hash beyond all doubt,
While you were away a-fshing.
The Leaguerg tried, by their impoent laws,
To treat johnson with scorn" and not with
applause;
But the people replied with their grand hurrahs,'
For the man who stood fast by the nations cause,
And that's what sticks in the Leaguers' craws,
And McMichael and Lynd their poor cats paws,
Will repent of the day Of the fishing.
The writer Of this especially desires that his brother poet
Of the League Mr George H. Bokerl shall be held
r. slye tae chance t. slip away from his duty
look him ahSAing on Long Island sound
