was held in New Haven, Conn, last week, and
was attended by vast concourse Of Christians

churches.
As usual, the officers Of the Board submitted

Book BNDERY We call the attention Of our
readers to the advertisement Of j. d. Clark, in
iur columns to-day. MIR. CLARK has followed his
business over the Journal Office for several years
and his book bindery has come to be an estab-
lished institution in this place. lie is amply
provided with the necessary improved tools and
machinery to do the best work. We do not think
that the same class of work can be better done
even in the city. Whatever he undertakes, he
doc- it in a skillul. tasteful and workmanike
manner, and gives the amplest satisfaction to his
employers. lie has executed large jobs of ledger.
md account books, for banks and other corpora
tions, to their entire acceptance, and has beer
employed even by companies in New York to
furnish their journals and blank books. Iii.
rates for all kinds of work are reasonable, and
we cordially commend his bindery to all who
have occasion for work in his line.

THE ELECTIONS.

so faras intelligence has reached us Of tho re-.
suits Of yesterdays elections, the summing up is
asfollows Pennsylvania is Republican by a
larger majority than even the best informed Re-
publicans dared to claim. llartranit is chosen
Governor by at least $4,000 majority. This, of
course, settles the claim of Gen. Grant to her
electoral vote by probably double that majority
Indiana is claimed by both parties, but the indi-
cations are that the Republicans have succeeded
by small mejority--frnm 5000 to 5000. In
Ohio the claims are conflicting. Considerable
gain is shown for tho Greeleyites, 20 far as beard
from, but We cannot believe the State has been
carried by them. Nebraska elects the full Re.
publican ticket, rs was expected

FATHER lIYAcISTHE. Rev. n Cyr, Of Rutland
reformed Catholic priest" delivered an ad-
dress in tho Hall of the House of Representa-
tiyes last evening before rather good and at
tentive audience, giving sketch OF the early life
and religious history Of Charles Loyson, better
known in this country as Father llyacinthe, the
seeding CarmelIte Monk, bringing his narrative
down to the present time.
Hyacinthe is not yet forty-fve years old, and
his early life was not unlike many another, at,
tended with all the facilities which wealth
and the opportunities for good education can
command, lie took upon himself the austere
orders Of the Carmelite Monks, and alter two
years of bare headed and bare footed secluson
he appears at Lyons us an eloquent reform
or, and then makes his way to Notre Dame,
where he soon added TO his fame by bis outspoker
reiormatory eloquence in the very face of til,
Mother Church. That he was denounced ant
mathematical by the Church is recent and ia
mliar scrap of history, That he stands beior,
the world ia the character of a retormer, is a ia
mliar fact to all newspaper readers. The speaker
being familiar with many of the details of hi'
life, and having even visited the subject Of hl'
discussion could not well fail Of making his ad
dress interesting and secured for it a most atten
two hearing.
The browning herosy in Father Hyacnthe's
career was his remuneration Of celibacy and re-
cent marriage, Tor which the Catholic Church
has showered upon his head its most whitening
bull" The speaker was in full sympathy
with his subject and hailed the remuneration o.
Hyacinthe, Of this old church requirement of IL
priests, as important evidence of enlightened
progress.

tE-rhe first hallt that has been taken during

my indication could be had as to the strength Of
be Greeley party, occurred on Tuesday afternoon
the vote for Justice Of the Peace to fill va.
ancy in the town of Iliehgate. The Represen-
alive from that town nominated Warren Robin
son whereupon Senator Bailey stated that he
ad been requested by prominent Republicans in
the town Of High gate to nominate Lucius Chris
nan. The ballot being taken resulted in liz fr
Mr.. Christian, to % for Mr. Robinson. 1t being
distinctly understood that the contest was be-
tween straight Republican and Greeley lite
the % votes given for Mr.. Robinson may he re-
sarded as the exact strength of the Greeley party
IN the present General Assembly. One member,
iesirng to emphasize his vote, wrote it, " Lueius
Christian, Republican, Christian but probably
It'd not thereby intend to cast any reflection or
