ELECTION RESULTS.

The election returns from the various
States are not yet sufficiently full or de-
finite tn furnish data for a correct resume
of the general result. From what is re-
ceived, however, we are ablet to make the
following summing up. One thing is
pretty apparent, that the Democrats have
made material gains in Congressman, as
may DO seen. In New York they gain
three, Wisconsin one, Michigan one,
Arkansas two, Tennessee probably six,
Missouri, uncertain at this hour, but the
Democrats probably gain two. At this
writing, Alabama is not heard from, but
there will undoubtedly be a Democratic
gain of two members. In New Jersey, the
Republicans gain a Congressman, and
reverse the political complexion of the
Legislature, insuring the election of a Re-
publican United States Senator. In the
aggregate the Democrats have probably
gained as many as eighteen Congress
men, which, added 10 the gain in the Oc-
tober elections, rake their entire gain
thirty votes. Full returns may increas g
this number.-Bdnner.

First Presbyterian Church.

Last Sunday night Rev. j. NJ, p. Otis
preached to "a small congregation On the
character of St. Peter. He said that St.
Peter was not a poor man, as was gener-
ally supposed, but was possessed of much
worldly goods. He lived in a very large
house, was very h~ospitable, and in CO.
partnership with several friends, also
afterwards apostles, owned a number of
large fishing vessels. Peter was Il bold,
honest man. The bold, candid man was
always ccnsured, because all his faults
were known to all men. The preacher
preferred such a man TO the cautious,
non-committal, neutral-tinted man,
who carried his character about him
carefully like a glass jar containing
some liquid. Gil his head, afraid all the
while that somebody would jostle against
him and spill il all over him. st. Peter
was the leader of the disciples after
the ascension OF the Savior, by rea-
son of his boldness and honesty. He
was about forty yeaIs old, when he first
became adisciple, and was married, His
Master repr0ved him for his rashness,
more than He rcproved all the other
apostles, and yet he Was second only to
. the beloved John in His love. If st. Pc
ter was a Pope he was made Pope before
he denied his Master, and the preacher
here made a powerful and striking argu-
ment against the Dogma of the Infalibil-
ity of the Pope, lately proclaimed by the
Ecumenical Council. Peter, of all the
apostles, was the most fallible, and yet
his acknowledgements claims infallibil-

Marriage.

Ma. EDITOR: an tho course of human
events" there is probably nothing more likely
TO occur Save death than marriage.
And be if known that our Irish friends pos
sess TO little matrimonial proclivity. Ii is 4
fortunate thing for our erring race that there is
no sin in this institution; for we are all well
wishers at least in this matter, and sauu would
marry even If the "plow" should stop.
You know Sir, yourself, how a man feels
upon this subject though YOU what \ pity
havelnot been "a doer of the word"
And as to the ladies. | have heard il said that
there was but one kind ofwoman that wouldn't
marry, and that was a dead one.
But to the point of this article. On last Mon
day morning Mr.. Simon Crimmins applied to
Rev. W. T. Uss.ry, to solemnize the rite Of
matrimOny between himself and Miss Maggie
Quinn Incsr Poplar Top, Maury County. Mar
rage TO take place at Mr.. F. VI. Vaughn's resi-.
dence, about dark. Accordingly said ussery,
put on his best and rode down sin the calm
sublimity of conscious rectitude, being accom-
panied by the gents: 10 Nicholson, f. NJ.
Fuller, Nc. Nicholson, Nat Nicholson, Jr., and
Monroe Taylor, all full fedged for the frOlic.
And Sir, 'you bet" we had a romantic ride.
Jo. Nicholson was as grave as a Senator;
but Festus Fuller was mere fuller than usual.
You ought To have heard his fine spun.disquisi.
items upon matrimony, &c.
And Mr.. Taylor, "a man of remarkable gravi-
ty) was both loquacious and witty. Thus We
moved on in our grand phalanx 10 the marriage
chamber, and up 10 this time it was a mere
matter of moon shine But ere We realized
our anticipations the moon had ceased TO shine
"for the bridegroom tarried."
Disappointment now stared us in the face;
for accordingto the ancient and Eastern custom
Mr.. Crimmins married at precisely twelve
o'clock. But having enjoyed Mrs. Vaughn
p~alatable supper, and everything else, short
Of the actual marriage, about eleven O'Clock,
We made for home, and on our return we met

mons and the bridge.
We at once made our rapid return 10 Mr..
VS., and Fuller upon his "fierv stced' reached
said place prior 10 the crowd. and called up
the drOwSy inmates, and the mansions were all
r~e-illuminated for our reception. And even up
10 this time we all considered ourselves well
paid; but the pest wine was kept for the last.
1t is proper TO say that the bridegroom, aman
of 80 years, never saw a couple married before.

Two weeks ago We stated, upon the
authority of a number ofreliable persons
that Gen. JERRY GILMER, of -Maury
county, was a member of the Grand
Juryof the Federal Court. We have
since been informed that he was not on
the Grand Jury, but the Travis Jury of
the Federal Court. Our Postmaster, Mr..
Baird, also tells us that Gen. GILMEE
went to Nashville to serve on the Jury
with great reluctance. 1t is but simple
justice for US to add. that We do lot know
a single member of the Grand Jury, and
in our former article we meant our poin-
ted remarks only to reach what we then
believed, and all our people believed
the malicious ~ofliciousness of Gen. GIL>
MER, in getting on the Jury to prosecute
his fellow-citizens. The General should
not forget that his past curse gives his
neighbors just cause to be suspicious Of
his future actions.
