MARKED CHANCE IN THE BED OF TUE STREAM -- THE
BARS SHIFTING.
from the Ph ladelpha Evening Telegraph.l
For some time past the ferry-boats between
Philadelphia and Camden in crossing the Della
ware. have gone close to Smiths island. This
has been necessary on account of the shifting
Of the sand-bar. which has caused a marked
change in the navigation OF the river. Former
ly the ferry boats could not cross near the upper
division of the island, but had to make long
detour northward. The Cooper's Point bar has
projected out 30 awlwardly that the Vine street
ferry boats are obliged to take tho same route
~ the Market street forry-boats. The improve
ments in the Schuylkill to take that stream
more navlgable have caused ali artificial shoal
in the Delaware near the formers mouth In
consequence Of these and other changes and the
rapid increase of our commerce, tho number OF
vessels at anchor, and the awarma Of tow-boats.
the navigation of the river requires great deal
more care and skill than formerly. The heavy
square-rigged vessels are gradually concentra-
ting further southward. The wharves at the
lower and upper portions of Camden havo be-
come places of resort for shipping.

The ohio and Indiana Elections.

REPUBLICAN LOSSES ny THE TEMPERANCE QuRs-
TIoN--sEvERAL coNaREssMEN LOST.
On the State tickets it seems to be conceded
that tho Democrats have carried Indiana by 5000
or IL 900 majority. The temperance plank in
the Ohio Republican platform, to which much OF
OF the disappointing result of the election in that
State is attributed, reads thus;
"That the restraint of utempeIance and its
uses to the full extent of the legislative, judi
cial and police powers of the State and the for
feiture OF public trust for intoxicaton, are de-
manded by the moral and material welfare of
society and the State"
1t should be borne in mind in this connection
that the probitionists had their own ticket for
State officers in the field, well as candidates
for Congress in several districts.
From Iowa the adyicee received are OF a
most satisfactory character. Ninety counties
already heard frc m give a Republican gain of
over 5000 votes and the Republican majority
ON the Secretary of State, the leading office vo-
ted for, will be about 900. The vote of the
State for Governor in October, 1873, was Q. o..
Carpenter, Republican, lO5, i43 Jacob q. Vale,
" Anti-monopoly 81, SIS Republican majority,
%, 565, against 40, 900 this year. The Republican
majority for Secretary of State in 1872 was 81,

INDIANAJrHE DEMOCRATIC SUCCESS oENERAI-THE
SEVERAL CAUSES OF REPUBLICAN DEFEAT.
Especial to the New York Times
INDIANAPoLIs, Oct. IA.
SO far as reported but one county gives an IN
crease over the Republican majority OF 1872, and
that Ia Delaware, t. home of the State Com
mittee Chairman. Democratic gains and Re-
publican losses are heavy everywhere, almost
without exception. The majority in the state
will run between 5000 and 10000, on the basis
of the returns received up to this time.
There is much speculation as TO the cause OF
the defeat. Tue general feeling ia to attribute
it to the temperance views, but this ID only one
| of the elements. Local feuds, the granger
movement, and the western fever for imitation
have had the most to do with it.. In eighty
counties there were independent tickets, and il
all of these the canvass one more for the
fat offices than for party principle.
THE DETAILS IN oHIo-THE RESULT SURPRISING
roDorH sIpEs-wHAr IT Id CONSTRUED TO MEAN

The result in this State IL not more surprising
