In the present Congress these states
have 81 Republican members to II
Democrats, showing a Democratic
gain of siX-three in this state, n in
Indiana and two in Pennsylvania.
In the present House of Representa-
tives the Republicans have les
members and the Democrats 80. The
Republicans thus Outnumber the
Democrats by o than three to one.
OF the IS Republicans elected, %
are old members and 20 new ones of
the Is Democrats, 10 are old members
and S new ones T; a total of IS to 2S.
Schenck, Garfield, Bingham, Blaine,
Poland, Kelley, Julian and Orth are
among the Republican leaders of the
present Congress who are reelected.
Stevens is dead, Shellabarger declined
denomination, and COvode, Ashley,
and Myers were beaten before the
people. Among the reelected Demo-
Gratis, Woodward of PENNSYLVANIA,
Morgan of Ohio and Holman of
Indiana are the only men of ability
and force. The Democrats have
gained however in the election of
Henry d. Foster and Dan. Voorhees,,
who, if they succeed in retaining
lAlelT SEATS, Will De dIlDuS the HlOSi
prominent Democrats in Congress.
The number of "clOse districts" this
year is unusually large, and the result
will be a great number of contested
cases, and much work for the election
committee. In Pennsylvania, Taylor
Republican, has but 81 majority,
Cake Republicau) IA, and Cessna
(Republican) IA. Moffat DemocEat)
has 127, and Foster (Democrat) Al.
All these seats will perhaps be con-
tested. In Ohio, Strader Democrat)
has but I53 majority, and Mr.. Eggles-
ton will contest his seat. Judge
Winans has but 1O1, Mr.. Welker 20S,
Mr.. Bingham 81, Mr.. Smith 400,
General Schenck 474, and Mr.. Steven
son 525. In none of these, however, |
will there be any contest, save,
perhaps, in Judge Winan's district,
the Seventh. In Indiana, Mr.. Julian
Republican, and Mr.. VOORHEES,
lDemoerat) have majorities of less
than one hundred each, and both
seats will be contested.-GeUeIdRd

The Elections.

The Cincinnati Gazette of Saturday
last, gives the vote by counties of the
State, and foots up a majority of 20
400. This is somewhat of a gain,
over last year, the official majority
for Gov. Hayes there being only 1883.
The Pittsburg Commercial of Mon
day last, gives the official m~ajorities
in sixty-one counties, and estimated
majorities in the remaining five, for
Auditor General of Pennsylvania.
The five counties tc hear from are
Butler and Toga, Republican and
Potter, Sullivan and Wyoming, DEM
Ocratic. Giving Democratic counties
the majorities claimed from them by
the Democratic managers, and the
probabilities are they will be much
less, the State goes Republican by a
majority of 1O.O7S. This is certainly
asafe estimate, below the real major
ity if at all out of the way.
-~O~~
To the Unioh Republicans Of Trumbull
County.
We congratulate you upon the re-
suits of last Tuesdays election. Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Indiana and Nebraska
have nobly responded to Maine and
Vermont. The election Of our gallant
standard bearers, GRANTAND CoLFAx
is no longer a matter of doubt.
We have met the enemy and they
areours. We have routed them, horse,
foot and dragons. Already they are
panic stricken and ready to desert the
craft of mis-named Democracy. AL
ready we see the Hastings of victory
along the horizon. Already we behold
the glory of the coming day.
Our majority in Trumbull County
last year was 1888. Last Tuesday,
it was 1881. A gain of S45. Some
ofour Townships have done grandly
and all have done well. We can do
better. We want THREE THOUSAND
in November for Grant.
Onwiththe column then. Straight
en- the lines. Unfun the banners.
Sound the charge. Once more rally
around the flag of our Country and the
the great victory of Liberty and HUI
man Rights will be won-and won for
everl
GRANTCBUBs! Get out the last vote
onthethird of November. Wecharge
you that you see to this matter. We
want every man at the front on that
day. Let there be no stragglers. Ev-
cry man to his post, and three times

The Poor. Mans Jewels.

By MRS. DENNIsoN.
My home is..a poor.oue
TO all who pass it by;
They cannot see its beauty,
And neither, faith, can L;
That is, in paint or timber,
In doorway or in roof
But that it has its beauties,
I'll quickly give ye proof.
Come hither, young ones, hither,
Your fathers steps are near
That's Bet, with hair so yellow,
That's Sue, with eyes SC clear;
That's Will, with tawny trowsers
Tucked in his stocking leg;
And yonder two wee darlings
Are beauty Jean and Meg.
a cluster of fair jewels,
Five in the rugged set;
If any man has it brighter,
/ have to learn it yet;
And, Tom, when / am swinging
These arms with weary strain,
Their blessed faces cheer me,
And make me strong again.
/ sometimes sit and-wonder
w ndb W III tilCis itlIui w.
If they must delve and datter
treadmill round like me,
And scarcely, at the years end,
Have half a groat to spare
And see bad men put over them,
Twill be to hard to bear.
But then, think, as nations
Rise in the scale of might,
God puts the poor man forward,
Ard gives him power and light;
And learning, Tom, viii do it
And Christian truth will show
That Heaven makes no distinction
Between the high and low.
So, though my. homes poor one,
To all who pass it by
And none can see its beauty
Save mother, God and L;
The future may be grander
For some great glory won
Some gem set in the ages
BY even u poor man s son.
