The Election.

We give below the returns from nine
ty-seven towns, footing up ~, Isi against
5s.444 last year. The Republican ma
jority in these towns last wear was
ll,423. The totals this year in the same
are-Chsmberlain, 22,774; Smith, 49,
243; Hichborn, 2.ls7-giving Gov
Chamberlain a majority over both the
others of 5,344. These towns last year
threw nearly half the total vote of the
State, when Gov. Chamberlsin's major
itv was nearly 10000. Allowing the
same relative amounts to each in the
balance of the State, his majority would
be upward Of 10000. The chances of
this majority falling of by later returns,
we think may be fairly Offset by the
fact that this list contains the strongest
Hichborn towns. If these returns in
dictate the relative results as usual,
therefore Gov. Chamberlain is elected
by Q majority about half that of last
year. which under the circumstances
will be very gratifying result.
The returns are more meagre than We
had reason to expect. and we are scarce
~ able to indicate the complexion OF
the Legislature. From those ct hand,
however, we have no reason to doubt
that both branches are strongly Repub'
licaa. WAs1.

The Election.

Religious Intelligence.

REV. DR.. WoRRALL, Of Covington,
Kentucky, has been preaching for a
week past in the Vine Street Presby-
terrain Church of this city, with much
acceptance, to good congregations.
He returned to Covington on yester-
day, with the good wishes of many
new friends.
DAILY morning prayer meetings,
from s to 9 o'clock, have been held
in the Walnut Street Presbyterian
Church during this week, with good
degree of interest manifested.
BY reference to the Church Notices
above, it will be seen that the Presby-
terrain and Baptist Churches win hold
a united service in the forenoon of
Thanksgiving Day in the Baptist
Church, sermon by the Rev. DIR.
Bowden; and that a general Union
Service will be held in Trinity Meth
odist Church at night, sermon by
Rev. DR.. Baker.
REV. r. L. j. MATTHEWS. formerly
Of New Albany, and late American
Consul at Naples, has returned to

reside.
Rev. w. A. BoswoRrH, of. Pome-
roy, OHIO, has received an unanimous
call to the First Presbyterian Church
Of Greencastle, and will probably
accept.

noticing the sermon of Rev. w. H.

The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1869-04-27

''The Empire is Peace" whenever the
Revolutionists in power can so arrange
their internal programme that every lover
of the Republic will bow the knee to cor
rupt royalty, drawn from a lanyard ;
which will not be until the last freeman,
North, South and West have been sub
dued and conquered on bloody fields
Have the Radicals the most distant idea
that that will ever happen?
Notwithstanding the bayonets of the
Revolutionists and the supports of their
Crown, the people will rise when the time
comes and stamp out this scourge prepar-
ing for them, amid volleys of musketry
and salvos of artillery. 1t lis game that
the people have been trained to for eight
years and there. are many, now in civil
life, better calculated to command the
armies of the People against those of
the Imperialists, than GRANT, the little,
or any tool at his back. Let the people
"forewarned be forearmed"
