The official vote of Pennsylvania, as viii
be learned by reference to the official table
in another column, foots up 267, 746 for
Sharswood and 266,S24 for Williams, leay-
ing a majority of 922 for the former The
Republican vote fell 0,45O short of the
vote cast for Governor Geary, while the
Copperhead vote fell only %, $50 sha-a- l.
Is an easy matter to gain Cupperhead victo-
ries under such circumstances.

The late Republican defeat in this State
reminds us very much of the battle of An
tetam In that engagement it was said
that Mcclellan had l6, 900 as a reserve, but
did not find it convenient to use them. In
the late political contest we had 10000 as
reserve and our officers faild to rush them

The Copperheads of Pittsburg had a
great demonstration on last Saturday night
over the result of the elections of Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio. While Judge Thurman
of Ohio was addressing them, the bottom
burst out of their platform and down went
the whole mass of Copperhead humanity.
It was only the usual premonition that
Copperheadism receives before an over
whelming defeat. We remember a similar
warning in this place several years ago.

A FEW regular soldiers stationed at FoIt
Delaware, citizens of Pennsylvania, came to
the conclusion that they were entitled to
vote at the late election, under the Pennsyl-
vania volunteer election law, and had their
votes returned OF course it was only a
miseonstruction of the law. The Copper
heads set up a great cry of fraud over this
for the purpose of covering up their frauds
in Philadelphia 1t is the old cry of stop

POPULATION OF THE EARTH. In the
first volume of DR.. Behms Geographical
Annual lately published at GOtha, there
Is an interesting article on the population of
the EARTH This was estimated by Busch
ing in 1857 at !. 900, 900, 600, by Fabri and
Stein in 1900 at 5000 100000, by Hors-
chelmann in 1888 at S72, 900, 600, by Dieter
lei in 1856 at l ,2SS, 600, 600, and by Kelb in
1866 at l, 100000 600, Dr. Behm estimates
it at /, $50, ,000, 600, thus distributed: Eu
rope, 2S5, ,000,0 900; Asia, 796, 900, 600; Aus
tralia and Polynesia, 3, $50, 600; Africa, 1885,,
600, 600; and America 4,500,000. At the
same time he acknowledges that it is i'm
possible to arrive at anything more than an
approximate notion of the population in
Asia and Africa, there being no census or
other accurate means of ascertaining the
number of inhabitants in those continents
THE dearest living in the world is proba
bly, that which is procured in New York
A comparative statement of prices in New
York, Philadelphia, Paris, London, Berlin
and other prominent cities in all parts of the
world, shows that New York is the most ex-
pe 1sive OF all in the matter Of food. The
whole cause of this social misfortune is said
to be that the food itself comes to the con-
sqmers through too many middle men, all
oi whom must take their percentage.

Thc shelby County Poor House,
Squaiid Z Picture.


Squaiid Z Picture.
The County Court Of Shelby has re-
ccived the following as a part Of the report
of the committee appointed TO examine the
condition Of the poor house Of the county
at is impossible to describe the utter
vretchedness of the whole establishment.
10 is a poor house and poor farm indeed.
The building consists Of three dilapidateo,
wretched leg houses, in o row OF one story
each, about sixteen feet square. The floors
are made Of split logs, and most Of the doors
are net more han Eve feet high. The
chimneys are all in a tumble down cOndi-
ton, and the roofs give scarcely more shell
ter against the rain than the .boughs Of a
good shade tree would afford. There is be
longing 10 the establishment only one small
feather bed, too old to he Of much use
There Is not q single article Of furniture,
nora single cooking utensil Of any descrip-
ton belonging 10 the county on the place.
The establishment was in the charge OF Mr..
james Moore man Of respectable APP
pcarance, but without energy, apparently
lorty-ive years Of age-who, with his wife
and two paupers, compose the human por-
ton OF the Institutions
The farm contains one hundred and forty
acre, Of very poor, rolling ridge land
Fifteen acres is improved, on which was q
very fair crop Of corn and potatoes for the
quality Of the land. The county has moi
on the place either horse OF mule, pillow
hoe. AK, ror other tool Of any kind. There
are two COWS and calves and yearling-
which we did not see-which compose the
entire stock Of the place, except a poor, for
Iorn-looking dog, whose deplorable appear
ance and condition was symbolical OF thu
said charitable institution. Mr.. Moor
stated that up to that date only sixty dol
lara had been expended on the place, or II
furnishing subsistence this year, and tha
hc had not on the premises provisions
enough 10 feed fix persons with a single
meal. we did not stay to dinner) The
two paupers consist Of bed-ridden wo
man Of about forty-ive years, partially IN
sane. and a male idiot Of thirty years.
A few DAYS before our visit some twenty
one paupers, which had been gathered to
gether at the pesihouse and one or tw
other places near this city, were sent ii
proper conveyance by his honor Judg
Leonard, for want Of some better place, on
10 this charitable inaiiaion. Many of then
we're sick Greatly 10 the surprise Of th
