CHAPTER II.

The old Vlrginian, after surveying his dead
net for An instant in . sOrrOWful manner, re
.urned the gun and started for his mansion
The other quickly brought his piece to his
shoulder and called out:
"HOld on there Mister"
"What do you want :" asked the other as
be turned and beheld q "bead" drawn on
him. i~N
I'D like to have you to eat the rest of this
crow"
The old man fumed and swOre, and tore
about In frantic manner, saying he'd be-
ID II he would, and that he didn't want any
Of the young mans jokes. The cooking of
the gun, and the assurance on the part of the
soldier that he would certainly put ball
through the old mans shoulder unless he con-
piled with the demand, induced the Virginian
to retrace his steps. 'Now," said the ser
geant, II want you to eat the rest of that crow,
and no nonsense"
A punch Of the rife on the shoulder of the
old man reused him to quick sense Of Ills
position, aud picking up the crow he endeav-
0red to bite It. He grew pale. the perspira-
ton stood upon his race. he treMbled like
terrier. his mouth watered, his eyes filled, he
gagged, and it seemed a physical Impossible
ity for him tO touch the crow. The Sergeant,
however, compelled hlsn to take bite, and II
was the only one ha did take, for his break
last came up SO rapidly tO protest ayalnst the
crow that the soldier told him TO "git" and
newer to trouble Bucktail again.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Cincinnati, which gave the Creole
movement birth, is the only large CT t,
that gave the Greeley party majorit
at the October elections. This gair
proves the power of the maternal in
stinct, and it is fact long since es
tabished that the more weak, sickly Of
deformed child is, the greater is tn,
mothers tenderness and devotion.
Robert T. Lincoln, son of the late
President, is in Europe, but q lettel
from him says If you think il
worth while you may say that any s tate
ment that am Greeley man is deni
ed at my request, and that I am Re
publican, and heartily in favor of the
election of Grant and Wilson,"
How GREELEY TAKES IT.-Horace
Greeley had an appointment to speak
at fair in Baltimore, Thursday, and de
voted his remarks mainly to the i'm
provement of worn out lands. In the
evening he reviewed a torch-light pro.
cession and addressed crowd in favor
of "reconcliation" ard rest Grafton of
rights to every citizen now deprived of
them, speaking his old piece over with
variations from the sangune strain in
which he talked ii his recent tour. In
stead of predicting victory, he said, II
beseech you, let nothing discourage you
to press on to that triumph which will
certainly be accorded US. if not in the
near future, at later day"
A gentleman who rode with Mr..
Greeley in the cars from New York to
Baltimore says the old gentleman appear
ed considerably depressed over the
election news, and said he had no doubt
great frauds had been perpetrated in
Pennsylvania. Upon his arrival at
Philadelphia he purchased copy of
the Age and spent long time in stu ~
ing over its returns and comments.
The Greeley telegraph agent of
Georgia informs the world that the
negroes were the assailants in the elect
ion riot in Macon; but it also transpires
that the negroes and their friends were
the only ones to get killed. This is q
most curious and incomprehensib
result. We have noticed, however,
that "negro rufhanism" in the South
always has the same end. The negroes
were thoroughly armed with guns,
razors, and hatchets," but they we're
killed and wounded in dozens by the
innocent and unarmed rebels whom
they attacked. Strange fatality !.
They were Thoroughly armed" yet
they fed from the polls and did not
dare to go and vote m the presence of
the Confederate Quakers. This is
called :" intimidation by negroes"
Chicago Post.
Theodore Tilton says the soldiers of
the late war are rapidly returning to
the obscurity from whence they came,
and that obscurty becomes them A
pretty bold insult to the soldiers by Mr.,
Greeley's chief supporter, and who, it is
said, will soon AXE charge of the Trt-
6une in place of Whitelaw Reid.

THE GRAND RESULT.

After hard and we'll fought con-
test the Republicans have achieved a
substantial and decisive victory in the
sts.s~ of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana
and Nebraska, and the Presidential
election is virtually settled in favor of
General Grant. The Republican ma
jority in Pennsylvania will reach 3d.
900, against II, 900 last year, and the
Republicans have elected twenty-five of
the twenty seven Congressman, gain
for she Republicans of ak. In Ohio,
the Republicans have majority of
about Is, 900, gaining nearly 1000 over
their majority of last year. Thirteen of
ths Congressman are Republicans, and
SEVEN Democrsts,ia loss TO the Republi-
cans Of two members.
Although the Democratic candidate
for Governor in Indiana, Senator Hen
dicks, is elected by small ma
iority, the Republicans have elected
the balance Of tho state ticket, with the
possible exception of Superintendent of
Public instruction. Both of the Con-
sressmen at Large are Republicans,
and eight of the eleven district mem
bers. The Legislature is Republican
by majority of fourteen, gain OF six,
insuring the re election of o. P. Nor
ton to the United States Senate.
The Republicans of Nebraska done
nobly, carrying the state by nearly
5000 majority, a just rebuke to Senator
Upton for his desertion of the Repub-
liean cause.
The success attained by the Repub
licans at these state'elections shows that
the DETECTION in their ranks amounts to
merely nothing, and that falsehood,
ealumny and misrepresentation in 3
campaign have but little effect on an
intelligent people. The Greeleyites ses
out 10 the present canvass with lying
% their chief corner stone, and most
Justly have they met rebuke from the
people for iadulging in this kind of
political warfare.
