The Radical Family Quarrel.

The squabblc over the congressional success
sion in this district among the republican
politicians, continues, as our contemporary of

all the radical papers in the district, except
possibly the Peru Herald, (Which, since the
death Of It's late estimable editor, Mr.. Sapp
has been virtually without an editor,) have ex

Railroad Items.

have completed arrangements above to con-
tinue their road northward to Elgin, where 1t
will connect with other roads northward SO as
to form a continuous and almost airline road

agreeing TO complete the links from Elgin
nor,lMarl.
The leading men of the company have also,
within week or two, gone over the route Of
the proposed road from Streator cia Pontiac
to fairbury, and have decided to build that
road forthwith. The distance from Streator
to Failbury is less than SO miles, and road
between those two points, besides passing
over an almost continuous coal field will give
the Fox river raod an outlet to the east over the
Peoria and Toledo road, by Il route shorter,
at least TO the people of Ottawa and Streator,
by 80 miles than by way Of Chicago. The
proposed road, also, will open to Ottawa ma

Constitutional Election.

The election on Saturday, on the question
of the adoption or rejection of the new con-
stitution, was but thinly attended in Ottawa,
was polled, however, was in favor of that in
strument and ali the articles submitted sepa-
rately except the last one on the list, in refer
ence to the canal, which met some opposition.
The vote in the city stood as follows:
First Voting Diarict-For the new consti-
tuition, 334 against 81. For the section re-
lating to railroads. in the article entitled
"Corporations," 331 against, Is. For arti-
Gle entitled Counties" 3o3 against, 80. For
article entitled Warehouses" 1856; against
10. For three-fiftns vote to remove county
seats, $50: against, %. For section relating
10 the Illinois Central railroad, 337; against,
Is. For section relating to minority representa-
ton, 269; against, sc. For section relating to
municipal subscriptions to railroads and pri-
vate corporations, 333 against, % For Sec
ton relating to the canal, 50; against, 273.
Second Di8trict-For the new constitution,
23G, against 6: for canal clause lG3, against
s.; for minority representation l76, against
IS, balance same as on constitution.
The vote throughout the state runs about as
it did IN Ottawa, except that along the line
Of the Illinois Central Rail Road there is a
pretty strong vote against the section relating
to that road, and in the counties along the
line of the proposed canal to Rock Island
there is "a pretty heavy vote against the canal
article. The Republicans, in strong republic
can counties, also voted against the minority
representation clause. But, taking all togather
the indications are, that not only is the new
constitution adopted by an overwhelming ma
jority, but all the articles submitted separately
are adopted. When the full figures of this
county, as well as of the whole state are made
up, We shall lay them before our readers

THE FOURTH AT ToNICA,

town was an exceedingly creditable affair to all
concerned, more especially to the order Of Odd
Fellows under whose auspices it was conducted.
The day was ushered in by the ringing of bells
and firing Of cannon in the good old.fashioned
way. During the morning, while waiting for
expected guests o fantastic crowd called the
"Ragmuffins," made their appearance and fully
succeeded in entertaining the crowd, which had
become quite large and continued to increase
till from 5000 to 5000 people had assembled to
participate in the festivities. ~
AT 10 O'clock the procession, headed by the
Odd Fellows and with music furnished BY the
Hennepin Band, began to move under tho
direction Of Harry Holdridge, Esq, as Chief
Marshal, and after marching through the streets

very narrowly for several days, and then,
seeing nothing in their intercourse to
justify the slightest suspicion, forgot all
about it FOR. the time. 1T had been ar
ranged. that the wedding should take
place at Orkney, at the particular re-
quest of Theodore, for as he assured
Karl, sit is the most delightful place in
the world" The bridal party were to
pass few days of the honeymoon ut
this beloved spot, and then proceed to
Charleston, to be feasted and lionized.
Karl had been prevailed upon to accom-
pany them. At first, he obstipately and
persistently refused, but Theodore never
relented in his persuasions until the
point was gained.
"Why not2" thought the gloomy man,
pacing up and down the room. "Why
not? She is not yet Thed's wife-so let
me bask in her presence as long as can,
until it would be culpable in me to do SO
onger."
So to Orkney he went.
