Council and a number of invited guests,
marched through the principal streets
and presented a very fine appearance.
The ceremonies at the hall were very
interesting and imposing. Thos. +.

occasion and delivered 4 very ELOQUENT
aud able address. After the ceremonies
ut the hall large party drove to Belle

In the United States Circuit Court
Yesterday the case of John G.. COpelin
VS.. the PhGniX and Security Insurance
Companies, of New York, for $4,000,
was decided in favor OF the plaintiff.
The Democrat has special from
Omaha, as follows: The returns from
twelve of the most populous counties
show over 500 Republican gain, while
the Democratic gain is only about 40.
The entire Republican majority in these
counties is about 1900 Twenty four
interior counties are yet to be heard
from. which will no donbt make the
Republican majority in the State from
1000 to $500 The Republicans elected
II State Senators and 30 members of the
House. The Democrats elected State
Senator and Representatives.
The Times has dispatch from j. j.
Bingham, Secretary OF the Indiana
state Central Committee. 1t is as fol-
lows:
The election is undoubtedly close.
but we have but little doubt that we
have elected Hendricks. The Radicals
claim the State, but are unable m name
any majority. | have every reason to
believe that the State is safe. Iargo
Democratic gains liz many counties are
reported. Niblack in the LIST, Kerr in
the ID, Holman in the Sd, and Voorhees,
in the 9th, are positively elected. This
is a gain of one over our very latest pre-
vious advices, and the figures insure
the State by about 1900 majority, and
we do not see how this reckoning can be
overturned.
A Cheyenne dispatch says the returns
from Laramie City and other stations
west secure the election of Spike, Dele
gate to Congress, over Burleigh, Todd
and Toohley by several hundred.

publican gains on the reported MAORI
ties. Both parties are still claiming
the ticket. The indications are that
the Republican majority will be 1900.

papers comment on the recent American

Democratic party had only remained
passive, Republican blunders wonld
have given them the power, but the
Democrats have an equal, if not greater

these elections has decided the Presi-
Dental contest and the slight interest
wherewith the Democrats sought 10
surround it is gone. .,

A1R-Benny Rauens, Oh.
Come. ill your glasses, fellows,
And stand up in row,
On presidential drinking
We are going for to go;
Let US trample down all party ties
Beneath our love of right,
And proudly claim Ulysses Grant
AS Captain of our fight!
So. for President Ulysses
Let every glass be bright
NAY he rule the country he has saved,
And God defend the right.
In the world to-day no prouder name
Is borne on any breeze,
And with Grant to steer the ship of state,
Our flag shall rule the seas;
No Dominion" shall be north of us,
And south of us no foe
Our stars and stripes in the Cansdas
And likewise Mexico. .
For with President Ulysses
Will be few who care to fight
May he rule the country he has saved,
And God defend the right!
His hand is soft to meet friend,
And mailed to meet foe;
He's the Mississippi river-horse,
Resistless as its flow;
And our brethren of the beaten states
These "aliens" of to-day
Will find generous hand held out
When Grant has come to sway,
For generous is Ulysses
To the men who felt his might
May he rule the country he has saved,
And God defend the right!
So, boys, final bumper,
While we all in chorus chant
"For president we nominate
Our own Ulysses Grant!1
And if asked what state he halls from,
Our sole reply shall be,
From Appomattox Courthouse,
With its famous apple tree!n
For twas there to our Ulysses
That Lee gave up the fight
Now, boys, ITO Grant for president,
And God defend the right
