The official count shows the following re-
sult in, o,,r nounfv CapaforioI +;ol-ot.

The apparent smallness of Mr.. Burgess
vote results simply from clerical errors in the
returns. Henry Burgess is credited with 81
votes, and Henry S Burgess with 104, which
added to the above statement gives 5161 as
his real vote, placing him at the hsad of the
ticket.
The deficiency in Mr.. Goods vote does not
indicate any want of popularity, but arises
from the action of personal enemy, who
distributed in many towns fac-similes of the
regular Republican ticket, except that anoth-
er name was substituted for Mr.. Goods,
MaBy of them were thrown by men who had
no suspicion of any irregularity, and were
cheated into voting differently from their pur-
pose. Otherwise Mr.. Goold would have car

WHATEVER else it may accomplish, the
Evangelical Alliance has been the means OF
stirring up strife between the respective

moved by the Christian fellowship of the oc-
casion, participated in the communion SER
vice of Presbyterian churches. DR.. Tozier

In addition to its activity and earnestness,

truthfulness of this statement is found in the
