NroRo VorINa.--A correspondent OF the Ad-
pertiser re,erates the falsehood "that hundreds
of negroes we're colonized and negro repeaters
voted In every ward, aided and abetted by the
rings in power" at the city election.
This Is a sheer fabrication. There Is no
truth whatever in it. The Democrats were de-
feated by honest votes. There was some dis
satisfaction in their ranks in some oil the
Wards, and hence their vote was lighter than
il otherwise would have been. This Is partie'
ularly true Of the First, Fourth, Ninth and
Tenth. The assertion that one "person wins
was elected to Council and was counted out b.
the tools of the ring, making perjurers OF them
selves and the election officers, is All uumtigate
fa,sehood, There was no such false counting
and the writer in question knows it as fully
any one else. The assertion Is libel on II
election officers of each party, To say that
spectors and Clerks will deliberately falsify u
tally list, ia uuwarranted and deserves rebuk'
We presume that the allusion is intended TO al
ply to the Third Ward. The contest there wi
close, but the defeat of Mr.. Finegan was own
to the fact that he did not get sufficient nun
her of yotes,-his name being scratched in SCI
eraI ipstances,-and not to any unfair or fal
counting.

Mark TwAlS's TRIBUTE TO WOMAN.
AT the annual banquet of the Wash
ington Correspondents Club the follow
ing toast was read:
Women The pride Of the profess
ions and the jewel of ours.
To which Mark Twain responded as
follows
Human intelligence cannot estimate
what we owe to woman sir. She sews
on buttons, she ropes us in at the church
fairs, she confdes in us, tells us whatev-
er she can find out the little private at
fairs of our nclghbors, she gives us a
piece of her mind sometimes, and some
times all of it. In all relations OF life,
sir, it is a just and grateful tribute to
say Of her she is "brick J!
Wherever your place woman, sir, in
whatever position or estate, she is an
ornament to the place she occupies, and
q treasure to the world. Look at the
names in history! Look at Desdemona!
Look at Lucretia Borgia ! Look at
mother Eve repeat, sir, look at the
illustrious names of history. Look at
Elizabeth Cady Stanton! Look at Geo.
Francis Train And, sir, l say with
the deepest veneration, look at the moth
er of Washington She raised boy
who could not lie; but he never had a
chance. 1t might have been different
if he had belonged to newspaper cor
respondents club.
Mark looked around placidly upon
his excited audience, and resumed :
repeat, sir, that in whatever position
you nut n woman. she is an ornament
to society, and a treasure to the world:
As a sweetheart, she has few equals, and
no superior. AS a wealthy grandmoth-
er with an incurable distemper, she Is
gorgeous. AS wet-nurse, she has no
equal among men. What, sir, would
the people of the earth be without wo-
men? They would be scarce, sir, al
mighty scarce Then let us give her
our support, our sympathy-ourseives'
if we get chance. :,
But, tjesting aside, Mr.. President wo-
man is iovable, gracious, kind OF heart
beautiful, worthy of respect: No one
here will refuse to drink her health right
cordially, for each and every one OF us
has personally known, loved and hon
