The South Carolina elections came off
last Wednesday. Franklin J. Moses, IT..
the regular Republican candidate for
Governor, was elected, by from twenty
to twenty-five thousand majority. Mai.
X. H. CLAWS on the same ticket is also
elected Lieutenant Governor. The cleo
ton, so far as heard from, passed off with
out single disturbance. Should think
it would be little tough for some of
those smouldering old secesh firebrands.
to look on and see their former slave
Sambo walk up on his heavy heel to the
ballot-box and vote the same way as do
the Internal yankees, and elect his man
with such a crushing majority. And

now that the long haired, broad brlmmed,
pot bellied and quick-tempered South
rons have plenty of time to poke snuff,
eat clay and reflect, it seems to us that
they can but look back upon their crook
ed paths and see and realize the extreme
folly of secession. 'Oh, for the good
old Democratic days" must pass through
their minds; when, at the crack of the
long whip, they could call around them
a hundred servants, all anxious and
trembling to please their master. Had
they kept quiet for four years after LIN
coins election, and let alone secession
and war, they might still sit in their
cushioned armchair and smoke their
long-stemmed pipes, surrounded by their
crouching vassals and there might also
have been some possible chance of their
getting the power back into their hands.
But now that hope glimmers but family
in the dim distance, afar off on very
hard hill to climb; hope, as the late
elections seem to indicate, deluslve as
the rainbow: when they get where it is,
it isn't there.

AS the war in the Second District.
over Congressman draws near its close,
the fight seems to be all the while grow
ing fercer, the newspaper blows falling
thicker and faster on the heads of the
two unlucky candidates until the people
should not take stock in more than half
that is said on either side. At the out
set of the campaign, the people, outside
the District, at least, and probably a ma
Jorlty inside, saw no reason why Judge
Poland should not be again returned to
Congress, if he desired the place, and
public opinion generally, we think, was,
If it is not still, in favor of letting him
60. But Steele, the opposition candidate,
is young and good-looking, smart, and
very popular, knows well how to keep
his old friends and gain new ones, and
went to work with an empty scabbard
and glittering blade. The two snow
balls grew larger as they rolled on,
Steele, apparently gaining much the fast
est, until he had Poland crowded we'll
back on his launches. Two or three
weeks ago, public opinion. SO far as we
heard it expressed, was that Steele would
win, sure. Recent developments, how
ever, indicate that the old Judge, in the
mean time, has had, at least, one eve
open, and that he has not got the gan
creme SO bad as some folks suppose. The
last Caledontou says that returns from
town caucuses electing Poland delegates
enough have been received, to give him
81 votes, n being necessary for choice.
1T these returns are correct, of course
Poland will receive the nomination at
the Convention at White River junction
next Wednesday. Some of these 81
delegates are claimed by the Steele par
ty, which makes things doubtful until
after the Convention, and even then
it will not be the strangest thing in the
world-after such fght-if there is a
bolt and hostilities continued until the
election. If such should be the case.
perhaps the dissatisfied party might find
1T to It's advantage to consult with H.
&. as to what he knows about bolts.

The funeral of the Hon. VIM. ri. Sew

week, took place on Monday, last. He
was buried at Auburn, N. T., by the
side of his wife and daughter. His re-
mains were placed in the parlor of his
continuous stream of visitors pass PASSED "a
to view the features of the distinguished
statesman. The streets of the city were
thronged with people and the route
through which the procession passed was
crowded, in spite of the rain which came
steadily down. The musical portion of
the service is said to have been exceed
ingly solemn. Among hymns sung, was
"Home, sweet Home" which was sung
at Mr.. Stewards request, at both the
funeral of his wife and daughter and
was selected for its holy associations
The procession to 60 to the grave formed
in front of the church in the presence of
10000 people amid the tolling of all the
bells in the city. 1t must have been,
indeed, solemn occasion.
The Congressional Republican Com
mittee, in taking view of the political
situation, have come to the conclusion
that ''it's all RIG ht." They have so

that Grant will carry every one of the
former free states, and in addition, Del

10 slacken their energy now, even it
they have no longer any hope of elect
ing Mr.. Greeley.
We copy a dispatch which indicates
the feeling that prevails in the Demo-
cratic and Liberal committees at Wash.
lngton: at is conceded on all sides
that Mr.. Greeley has been beaten for the
Presidency, and that the death-knell of
the Liberal movement has been sound
ed. Democrats who have all the sum-
mer been shouting for the Chappaqua
Sage, now denounce him in every way
imaginable. They say they have no
confidence in him, and never had any,
and that the whole Cincinnati Baltimore
bargain is snare and delusion."
At Terre Haute, Ind, says the Chi
cago Journal, on last Saturday evening
two respectfully dressed men passed down
street, when one of them shouted =. Hur
rah for Greeley, Voorhees,, aud the
South p Then, turning to his compan-
ion, he added in a lower tone: aFd
like to hurrah for jeff Davis, too His
companion replied: THAT isn't advis-
able just now. Wait till the right time
comes" "Well, said the first speaker,
eff it isn't safe to hurrah for Jeff Davis
this year, it will be safe four years from
now.
The Greeley efervescence throughout
the country is subsiding into dead still
ness. Like soda pop, it should be taken
on the instant or it fattens.

THE TOES. japanese and Chinese

most quadrumanal, as from continued
practice they use their toes nearly as
readily as they do their fingers. Short
and cramped as they are in our stlif
leather shoes, we have scarcely any

Japanese workmen actually pick up
tools with their toes and work with
them thus handled, while other opera
tions are conducted with other instru-
ments in their hands. We have often
seen chisels held by a long handle with
the left hand, while their toes guided

may be educated to act with rapid

countries have been exercising their
toes through hundreds Of Asiatic gen
erations. so much for theoretical

GOT ENOUGH OF THAT.

The New York correspondent of the
St. Louis Globe sends the following
amusing anecdote of a scene at the
opera:
Pauline Lucca created genuine
sensation the other evening IN F1u
Diarolo. She represents "Zerllna" IN
very natural and piquant way, ac-
cording to her own notions-not those
of any of her lyric predecessors or CO.
temporaries. You remember the scene
of the bed-chamber, in which the heroine
stands before her mirrors and disrobes
for the night--a scene that the severe
Mendelssohn declared he could never
have written. Auber, Frenchman,
must have taken particular delight in
it, because there is suggested by it no
little ambiguity Of what is to come
next. Lucca seemed DESTROYS of max

much about the sins of the great city;
but until he had entered the academy
that night lie had no idea of an opera,
and consequently felt the deepest in
terest in its progress. When "Zeriina"
had removed her bracelets, taken down
her hair and put off her bodice, the
rustic, who had watched
Aer eagerly, revealed the liyelicst symp-
toms OF apprehension, not to say dis
gust. He looked around, evidently
that the elegantly dressed
aides still kept their seats Then,
Using, he said to his escort. "Well.
