each annual election held since 1867

The totals marked thus (*) include few
scattering votes For the years in which the
votes and majorities are marked thus Cd, the
total opposition vote is given under the head
Of Democratic, and the Republican plurality is
given, instead of the majority. A comparison
of the votes of 1866 and 1867 shows Repub-
iosn decrease of 1877, Democratic in-
crease of 1895, decrease OF S189 in the total
vote, and decrease of l6, 073 in the Repubi-
can majority. This apparent reaction, ~
although known 20 be caused by local dlssatis-
faction on account of the anti-liquor legisla-
tion of the Republican Legislature, was
made much of by the Democracy, being re-
garded by them in the light of very substan-
tial "crumb of comfort" There will be nothing
of the kind this year, for all the indications Of
the present canvass, which has been one of the
most thorough ever made in the State, indicate
that the Republican majority will be increased
to from 25, 900 to 10000.
Not only is the State secure by an over
whelming majority, but each of the five Con-
gressional districts is positively certain to cast
q large Republican majority. The following
are the names Of the present members of Con-
gress, all Republicans, with the votes by
which they were elected in 1866 the names

ga CRUMB OF COMFORT" has been picked up
by the hungry Democracy in the insignificant
town of Alton, Illinois, which they claim to
have carried at municipal election, held on
Tuesday, by an increased vote. Alton, it will
be remembered, was the scene OF the cowardly
and brutal murder of Lovejoy, by pro-slavery
Democratic mob some years ago. 1t has been
Democratic ever since.

The last Democrat who crept into Congress

his predecessor, like his successor, being a
Republican. Such is the record of Maine.

Patrick's Attempt at German.

Frederick the Great, of Prussia, had a
great mania for enlisting gigantic soldiers
into the Royal Guards, and paid an. enor-
nous bounty to his srecruiting officers for
getting them. One day the recruiting SER
geant chanced to spy Hibernian who was
at least seven ieet high; he accosted him in
English, and proposed that he should enlist.
The idea of military life and high bounty
so delighted Patrick that he Immediately
consented.
But unless you can speak German, the
King will not give you SO much. y
''Oh," said the Irishman, '.sure it's |
that don know a word of German
But said the sergeant, three words
will be sufficient, and these you can learn In
a short time The King knows every man
in the guards. AS soon as he sees you, he
will ride up and ask you how old you are
You will say, Twenty-seven. Next, how
long you have been in the service? You
must reply, Three weeks. Finally, if you
are provided with clothes and rations? You
answer, Both.
Pat soon learned his answers, but never
dreamed of learning questions. In three
weeks he appeared before the King in re-
view. His majesty rode up to him. Pad
dy stepped forward with present arms.
"How old are you p said the King.
''Three weeks" said the Irishman.
How long have you been in the serviceY r
asked his majesty.
Twenty seven years.
"Am | or you a fool?" roared the King.
Both" replied Patrick, who was in.
stantly taken to the guard room, but par
doned by the King after he understood the
facts of the case.

mis- sister by his side had none. He said,
''here, take it'll" when Ellen did not see
that he was holding the butter-plate to-
wards her. And he neglected the little
thank you," and the "please," which are
such necessary parts of politeness at all
times.
Then, when Harry went to bed, he did
not think it worth while to say good night
though he had been very careful to say a
polite good afternoon" before leaving
school that day.
In truth, Harry's good manners were kept
for those outside of his own home. And
that strange old gentleman knew how many
boys had his fault So, in few years, when
he wanted a bookkeeper for his counting
house, from among the graduates at the A
cademy, he would not select one until he had
visited several at their homes and become
acquainted with their manners there. Then,
to the surprise of all the school, be did not
choose Harry Brown. For said he, 81
don't want any boy about me that can't be
polite to his mother and sister.
Boys how many of you are like Harry
Some of you are, | know. Then bear in
mind the words of the strange old gentle
man: ''Let me see that boy at home that S
the place!
Do not think that home is place where
you can throw OFT all politeness, and be as
careless and as rough as you please. Ii
there is place on earth where you should
wear good manners and be polite and kind j;
that's the place T. If there are persons to
whom you should give your most polite
words and kind attentions, those persons are
your father, mother and sister. Will you
give more attention and respect to those
outside, than to the dear ones at home
Will Won he nraised for pood manners nv
strangers, and cause those ut home to call
you rude and thoughtless 1t will make
your homes much more happy and pleasant,
if you wear your best manners always there.
Do not be ashamed to be polite at home,
that is the best place in all the world to you
that is the place where your best friends are /;
that is the place where your true character
will appear; therefore, remember to culti-
vate politeness at home

A NEW SwINDLE-A new swindle is said
to have been started in New York city, which
is we'll calculated to deceive people living in
the country. A circular is sent out with
samples of prints, which are represented to
be manufactured at print works whose own
ers have an Office in New York. Enclosed
in the circular are samples of goods, OF
which twelve yards will be sent on the re-
ceipt of one dollar, or ten yards for eighty
five cents. A messenger was recently sent
to the Office named, when it was found that
the place was in charge Of boy, and that
no business was transacted there beyond re-
ceiving letters, which usually numbered from
thirty-five to fifty day.
