Brooke County All Right.
Applegate and Hervey Re- Elected
Majority Estimated at 100.
DEMOCRATIC GAIN 30.

The Brooke cOnnty Democracy send
US cheering tidings. They carry the
county by majority estimated at from
seventy five to one hundred. The fol-
lowing letter has just been received by
a gentlemas in this city from reliable
source;
WELLsBURG, October 90, 1869.
Returns have been received from four
voting places. Applegate and Hervey
have about S5 majority thus far. The
balance of the county will not reduce
this number. Our sanguine friends
claim that Applegate and Hervey will
have over 100 majority in the county.
We are all right, will carry every
township in the county and elect every
name on the Democratic ticket through
out, except Freshwater for School Su-
perintendent, who will be beaten by
Wells (Republcan.)
The Pan Handle Ners, with rooster
rampant and general rejoicing breaking
out all over its columns, confirms the
above and says:
We predicted 100 Democratic majori.
ty in Brooke county for Hervey aud
Applegate. Our predictions are more
than verified,

The Earthquake I'm Mendocino Cosn.
~, California;.

From the MendOcino Herald, octobsr 81
At 100 o'clock this morning, October
sth, we were visited by the severest
earthquake shock ever experienced in
Ukiah Valley. Fer ourselves we were
asleep, but soon found ourselves wide
awake, sensible of the terrible convul-
sion going on. For four or five seconds
some say ten seconds-the house rat
tied as though actual demolition was
going on. Nor was it all in appearance.
When daylight came the first thing that
greeted our sight was large quantity
OF bricks and mortar in the fir place.
On going out of doors the cause of this
was plainly visible. Three or four
course of bricks had been taken off the
top of the chimney, and landed
oa the roof of the house.
On coming mp to Ukiab, we learned
that some damage had been done
in the way Of breaking bottles, &C., in
drug stores. Some twenty tons of -four,
in sacks was stored away in the west
ern part of S. Williams store. 1t bad
been stacked up nicely, but when we
looked at it this morning, it looked as
though it had been dumped down from
a big cart without order or care. The
ceiling of Williams store was also con-
siderably damaged. The ceiling of
Moore & Chambers saloon looked ter
ribly streaked. On further inquiry we
learned that quite a number of chim-
neys in the neighberhood were more or
less damaged. One, that of Crawford,
was thrown down above the roof of the
house, and then broken off lower down,
and the body of the chimney shifted
about one inch. Much Interest was felt
in regard to the new seminary, the walls
Of which had just been completed, but
on examination it was found that ne
damage was done.

"a most esiimable lady, who for many
years has OTnameDted society by her
grace and accomplishments in New
Orleans, has been deserted by her bus
band, an ex-Colonel of the Union army.
The New Orleans Times says: Quite
recently be invited the lady and her
children out TO walk, aud stopping cas-
ually on a corner, asked them to wait
there a few minutes until he rejoined
them. Much 10 the surprise of all, an
hour passed without his returning.
Fearing some calamity, the lady started
home. There, to her horror, the ser
wants informed her the man had put his
trunks in an express wsgo2 and started
of. The house had been stripped OF
every article Of value. Plate, jewelry,
and even the easket containing heT dia-
monds, were gone. 4 note furtly in
formed the distracted woman her decelv-
er had suddenly been called away, and
now the fact is developed that be has 6

The Ohio Election.

The Republican press of Ohio, aided
by that organ of the bondholders and
Wall street gold gamblers, thel New
York HOrId, claim the defeat of Nr.
Pendletou for Governor, as a rejection
by the people of the doctrine advocated
by the Democrats of paying tAe , 20
bonds in greenbacks. The Cincinnati
Gazette, in an article on that subject
shews concusively that the Republican
una layers kept that issue from being
made q prominent one, knowing that II
it had been it would have been adopted
by a majority of fifty thousand, The
GG=Ctte says:
In regard to the pnyment of the
bonds, it is O mistake TO say that the
question of gold Ur greenhacks was
squarely presented. The Republican
platform ignored the question because
it was found impossible to agree. One
side desired au Endorsement Of the pub
| lie credit bill, while another advocated
resolution favoripg payment Of the
debt in greenbacks. The committee on
Resolutions Gnally agreed to disagree,
and the question, as We have said, was
ignored in the platform. In the can.
vass it was admitted that there was
difference of opinion, in the Republi-
can party on this question, as there is
in the Democratic party, but gener-
ally it was argued that the
government has legal and moral right
to pay the bonds in the currency of the
country that is to say, it has right
to use eriStiHg greenbacE for that pur
pose, but at the same time il was urged
that it might not be wise to exercise
this right. Let it not be supposed,
however, that the people of Ohio III
dorsed the public credit bill; or th&
they are in favor, uncoudirionsllY. pl
paying bonds in gold. wnrul by tn~
/ terms of the contract, can bs shown 10
! be payable in the currency Of the Couu
try. If Congress shall devise means
that will enhance the value OF the
grsenback dollar aDd place a new loan
| upon the market at low rate Of inter.
est, the people will acQuiesce; but if
gap of - per cent, is TO remain between
the paper dollar and gold dollar, they
will not consent TO the payment Of
debt in the latter that is legally paya
ble in the former. This, upon the bond
question, is the meaning OF tie election.

Harrison County.

We congratulate the gallant Demo.
Gratis of Harrison county, upon the sue
cess which has attended their efforts. |
They have certaiuly elected JOHN J. !
DAVIS, ons of the very best men ir the
State, over JOHN S. CARLILE, one of the
very worst, by abeut one hundred ma
iority, The contest between Hon. G. S.
LEWIS, Democrat, and NATHAN GOFF Sr.
Republican, is understood to be very
close with the chances in favor Of the
former. We earnestly hope the election
of Mr.. LEWIS, is secure as his services
would be OF great value in the Legisla-
ture at this time.
We have not heretofore permitted our
selves to look for the election of more
than one of the Democratic candidates
in Harrison, the county having been
uniformly Republican. We did look with
some confidence for the defeat OF Mr..
CARLILy, whose identity with all par.
ties and fidelity to none, we felt assured
would insure his defeat. IL seems that
the REGISTER was not only right in this,
but that CARLILE was such a heavy
weight as to carry down with him his
colleague upon the ticket, one of the
strongest candidates the Republicans
could have put forth.
There is but one fact to mar the
qualification produced by this result.
II is that CARLLE, having failed in his
late political enterprise, will abandon
his present Improbable alliance, and
steer straight for Democracy. This is
hard, but we suppose it cannot be
helped. The great laws of mutation
under which all things earthly change,
rotate. transmute and move from a
condition in which they were TO the
opposite in which they will have been,
seem to operate with peculiar effect
upon the CARLILE constitution. Their
effect is as inevitable as tteir
source is inexplicable. AS we
rejoiced when they operated IN
our favor and translated the substsn-
tial but corruptible eopperhead CARLLE
into the radiant Radical CARLILE, wear
ing a halo of "loyap glory, so we must
prepare to mourn with resignation the
back action of the same principle, which
shall restore him to the political condi-
tion and afiliation in which he penned
the hspless CAMDEN letter. Neverthe-
less he is one of the few guests whom
no man will welcome and whose part
ling all men will speed.

A Warm Red for RiKa.

We very well remember q saying of
an old gentleman, an excellent farmer,
that if you would make hog profts.
BILE, You should not let him ever see a
winter; and we think we have satisfied
ourselves that spring pigs, well kept
and nursed, are far less expensive, aHd
yield more in return for their keeping
than those which are fifteen or eighteen
months old. But one thing Is quite
certain, If we prefer our store hogs to
come in the fall, we ought to be careful
to keep them through our long cold
winters, both warm and dry.
Every observant farmer knows that
if his cattle are not sheltered from the
cold weather and storms, they will re-
guire much more food to keep them in
tolerable order than if they are kept
warm and comfortable. Just as it is
with pigs, if they are suffered to run
over your premises in the snow and
sleet, with their legs and snout as red
as the gill Of your gobbler, without O
warm and dry bed of clean straw to
resort to when they choose, they will
not only, in all probability, come out
with mango in the spring, but every
grunt they give will convince you that
all the food they have devoured has
been thrown away; for shoats that have
Geld, damp, comfortless bed, will get
NANCY, and NANCY pigs cannot grow.
Let any one who has mind to try
the experiment, take two pigs of the
same litter, suffering the one to run as
above, and let the ether be we'll housed
and we'll fed, and it will be found that
the superior growth Of the latter will
pay for the care bestowed upon him,
and good interest. Hogs that are con-
fined, and cannot get to the earth, will
frequently be benefited by having a
little charcoal, soft brickbats, or soft
rotten wood thrown into them; and a
trifling quantity of birthstone mixed in
their food, occasionally, is an excellent
thing.
The hog has the reputation of being
dirty fellow, but we should remember
that he likes to be dirty in his own way,
and for his own PLEASURE he neither
prefers to live cold nor in filth; still!l less
does he choose to be half fed. DR.,
Franklin's man said tho hog was the
only gentleman in England, because he
alone was eIOneTated from labor. If
this be so, surely he ought to be well
fed and well housed in America. We
entirely believe that the same amount
of food that will barely carry a pig
through the winter with bad manage
ment, will, with good, prudent treat
nent, keep him growing, and in the
spring you have something to build
upon that will by-and-by make you
solid porker who will do credit to your
sty.-RWraiiSt.

IRE Inteiiigencer yesterday complained
that one Of the registrars in this county,
who wa' in the employment Of the Re
Pu6licans, worked for the Democratic
candidates on Thursday. Probably the
Republicans did not redeem their
promise to pay him. They agreed
through the I"te'Egencsr to recompense
the REGISTER for its services. Yesterday
we asked slight testimonial in the
shape OF a certain collection of photo
graphs, They are not yet Forthcoming

ployes desert them.
