NOTES OF A TRIP.

Somehow or other, ii il very seldom
that we can get the chance to get out
of the Office and go scouting around
any; but when we do, Of course the
pencil must be ready to take notes by
the way, so here goes for some sketch
of n trip last week to our neighboring
County-seat Of Monroe County,
Abba,
With which good town we hope TO be
connected by the iron bands Of the a.
X. & ID. so soon as may be. Abba il
town of about 1000 inhabitants, and
is set down In apparently the middle
of one OF Iowa's biggest prairies. The
town gave us the impression of being
not much larger than Knoxville, and
not much If any better built up on the
average, though the business houses
around the Square show better. The
Court House il smaller than ours, but
looks better; but the Court Square
can't shine by the side OF Marion
County's, being too low and fiat and
not so well shaded. Abba now has
two Railroads-the Il. IL NJ. and the
Iowa Central-aDd Of course they
have had q large effect on b0siness;
but really, after all, we believe that
fair footings would show that Knox
Vile does at least as much business In
a year az Abba does; and this opinion
is corroborated by that Of Burlington
travelling man who has been familiar
with both towns for the last two years.
And therefore we incline to believe
that when we get our Railroad, Knox
Vile will be much better business
point than Abba, and likely therefore
TO become d larger town. Meanwhile,
may Abba grow and prosper to the
fullest degree.

A Clean Sweep.

Tn orr last issue we predicted that the
election of Yesterday would result in graft
fving Republican victory, despite the adverse
circumstances and foreign issues that the
Democrats had forced into the contest But
we must confess that he did not expect to
rout the enemy at all points and fly our ban
ner defiantly over his strongest citadels. AS
has been their practice for nearly twenty
years, the Democratic leaders were quite Jub-
ilent before the election in view OF the results
of the little scheme they had fostered; put
now that the battle is over and they have lett
hardly monument to show that they par
ticipated in the contest, they are chagrined
at their defeat and would be disheartened by
this unexpected blow, had not years accus-
toned them to repulse. These leaders had laid
their plans to secure majority in the beard
of Aldermen, but instead of this they are on
" sure of one at this time and cannot have
more than two. They hoped to show hand
some gains in several wards, but now, for the
first time for several years, their candidate for
Mayor has majority of Republicans against
him in every ward The vote for Mr.. Nor
gan was, almost to a man given by Republi-
cans and the scattering vote was for Mr.. Dow,
so that counting these as Republicans, the ma
jority against Mr.. Cleaves who represents the
Democratic strength is quite seuen hundred.

The New Boston paper, the Globe, which is
Independent in politics, in a survey of the polt-
ical field, says: @
We have no doubt in our own mind that
General Grant will be nominated and elected,
notwithstanding there is at present a strong
element of opposition against him in the Re-
publican ranks, and that too, encouraged, if
not originated by men of power and position;
men who have q large degree of influence,
and who have been looked up to as leaders
by the Republican party. Once embarked
in crusade against the present incumbent,
these men would not be deferred from Incl
sve measures to further their object, by any
sentimental allegiance to party lines, which
are, at present, SO indifferently defined. Spe-
cious arguments would not be wanting to form
sufficient grounds for these disaffected parties,
if need be, to even join hands with the Demo-
Gratis upon a sort of middle ground of comprom-
Use, which would produce an amalgamation of
the most curious character The possible re-
suit would be that of protested Republicans
voting against General Grant, and rigid Demo-
Gratis promoting the election of Charles Snm-
ner! an anomaly which would startle some of
our old-fashioned politicians, while in Europe,
the aspect presented to their limited knowledge
of American politics would be that of politi-

THE SIGNAL SERvrcE.-The Gloucester Id
certiser thus bears testimony to the value of the
reports of the Signal Service Bureau, whose
utility was questioned in Congress on Friday:
'Not long since, on perfectly calm day,
with clear sky, about fifty vessels were seen
lying at anchor in one of our harbors, on ac-
count of a coming storm predicted by the
weather bureau. How many lives were saved
but one such occurrence alone is sufficient to
justify all the expense the Government has in
Cured in establishing and maintaining the ser
vice. 1t has been clearly shown that if we had
had cable communication with the Island of
st. Thomas, and a signal station there, we
should have known of the cyclones recent visit
to the Florida coast three days in advance of
its coming, and most of the vessels which en-
cOuntered it would have taken refuge in time in
some harbor. The service, as it is already or
ganized, is of incalculabe advantage to farmers
and Seafarers."

The paroxysmal maladies which are characterized
by heat and cold prevail extensively at this season.
and 1t is curious fact that in many parts of the
country where they are prevalent other diseases,
that bear no resemblance to fever and ague or re-
mittent fever, assume a periodic type. Thus In
many sections infested with chs and fever rheuma-
tism, neuralgia, hysteria, diarrhoa, &C., sometimes
become Intermittent, thereby indicating that they
have been engendered by the poisonous exhala-
lions which produce the first named disease.

NATHAN CLEAvEs, ESQ.,, has written a note
in which he says that the statement in yester-
days PRESS in regard to his volunteering his
services to aid the Ogdensburg loan in any man
ner, is false and malicious. He says he was
never asked, and never offered to aid the loan

incorrect, but it certainly was not malicious.
