Election next Monday in Louisi-

named States the day after-Tuesday,
Nov. 3d-to-wit Alabama, Arkan-
sas, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Kan
sas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mich
gan, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey,
New York, Pennsylvania, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia,
Wisconsin. The election Of members
to the lower branch of the Forty.
iYnrth Congress will be completed,
next year, as follows New Hamp-
shire, in March Connecticut, in
April California, in September
Mississippi, in November. The 44th
Congress will, unless sooner convened,
meet on the first Monday in Decemb.
er, 1875. We did not deem it neces.
sary to mention in the above list the
election which takes place in this
Congressional District next Tuesday,
to elect Representative, as there
was no choice at the September cleo
ton. Plurality here elects at this
trial.

The Committee of the Second
Congressional District have nomina-
ted Alexander M'Lane, Of Fairlee, as
the Democratic candidate for Con.
gress, and issued stirring address to
the voters. The writer of this article
of the editorial staff, but not the Ed
itorin- Chief-has known Mr.. M'Lane
for many years. He is man ofintel-
ligence, ofhonesty and integrity, well
worthy of a seat in Congress. The
people of that District could not dc
better then to elect him. He belongs
to no clique or ling, is an independ-
ent thinker and actor, and will always
be found acting with the people and
for the people. He is an earnest and
out-spoken Democrat, hard to match
in an argument, but never offensive OF
ungentlemanly. If they cannot elect
him, as may be doubtful, the Demo.
Gratis and Liberal Republicans of that
district ought to give him the deselv
ed compliment Of every one of thei
votes. Montpelier Argus and Patri

From the above table it appears
that the Democrats and Republicans
have elected thus far just 81
members, each, to the next House,
Adding to the above one more Re
publican member for this COMPRESSION
al District, that party have not as yet
chosen but just ONE majority to the
next House. An exchange justly re-
marks-"That it appears that the
Democrats are rising from the posi-
ton of a helpless minority to control
of the next House. The political
revolution, of which the recent cleo
tons furnish evidence, is not likely to
be arrested midway in its career
Nothing is better established in our
politics than the potent influence OF
preceding elections on those which
follow"

FlFTH AND LAST GuFT CONCERT
IN AID OF THE
Public Library of. Kentucky.
A CARD TO THE PUBLIC,

The management have determined
to have the drawing of the Fifth and
Last Gift Concert of the Public Ii
brary of Kentucky on the 3Oth day of
November next. We believe now
that all the tickets will be sold, and
that the drawing will be n full one !;
but whether all are sold or not,
the drawing will nevertheless certainly
come off on the day appointed.
The special object Of this card is to
call a meeting Of the ticket-holders at
Public Library Hall, on the goth of
November, to make arrangements in
connection with the committee ap-
pointed by the Trustees to superintend
the counting Of the tags representing
the number of tickets sold. When
there is no actual necessity for The
presence of ticket-holders, as under
our arrangements the interests of all
are equally cared for, yet at the same
time l would greatly prefer that as
many of those interested as can, would
attend this meeting and see each for
himself how perfectly fair and impair
tial the distribution must be.
Every arrangement has been made
for the drawing-but little more than
a month remains for the sale Of the
remainder of the tickets, and what
ever is done must be done quickly.

The Democratic nominations of
Congressional candidates in New
York city have in almost every in
stance been made with so much unan-
unity and so thoroughly in accordance
with the high standard which the De-
mocracy have set for men and meas
ures that the success of the ticket is
hardly a matter of doubt in any dis
trict. The nomination of Hon. S. S.
Cox, in the Sixth District, affords es-
pecial cause for congratulation. This
gentleman is an honorcd veteran in
Congressional service, and each sue
ceeding term has given him more hon
or than those that have preceded.
AS he himself remarked in a speech
before the Convention, that this was
his tenth nomination by the party five
times in Ohio and five times in New
York. He referred to the unfair
treatment which he received in re-
spect to his position in committees,
on account of his vote against the Sal
airy bill and the return of his back-pay
to the Treasury, which, in a Radical
House, degraded him from his proper
place. But going before the people
for their respective verdicts he saw
most OF those who enjoyed his discom-
future remaining sat home to gid the
calm current of domestic bliss while
by the leave of his constituents he ex-
pected to represent his district two
years longer and again Join hands
with old friends and co workers, like
Kerr and Holman, already elected, to
act, not in fettered minority, but in
the band which in the next Congress
would doubtless become potential
force" Like Kerr, Mr.. Cox, is Ma
tional acquisition. Perhaps it will
never be known how many bubbles Of
weak and windy legislation he has
picked, and how many well.woven
schemes Of corruption he has brought
to nought with his keen rapier Of
honest ridicule. His service in this
respect has been an inestimable one,
and strengthened in his honest purpo-
SEES, with vast fund of experience al
his command, he will return q more
valuable member of the National
Council than ever before B. Post.
