THE ELECTION.

A QUIET BUT EXCITING CANvAss-A FULL
voTE-ARREsT OF ILLEGAL VOTERS.
The polls were opened at the various
voting places throughout the city, this
morning, between eight and nine o'clock,
and shortly after the latter hour voting
was fairly under way. Up to noon a
large vote had been polled, and the indi-
cations are that by night the full vote of
the city will be brought out.
The election, thus far, has been con-
Quoted in an earnest, though quiet man
polls, and no disturbances have occurred.
Large numbers of illegal negro voters
were brought into the city, last night,
and it is very probable that they will be
brought to the polls to vote during the
day. The friends of reform, however,
will promptly arrest them If they at
tempt to vote.
The following arrests were made up to
noon:
John Piner, negro came to the
Fifth Ward polls, bearing letter sign
ed with the name of s. redmond
Smith, Clerk of the U. s. Courts, and
stating that the bearer had lost his tax
receipt, but was all right. His vote
was taken, but he was Immediately ar
rested by officer Bernhardt and taken
before Esquire Publ, who held him in
the sum of $500 bail for his appearance
at Court. II. F. Pickles and Levi c.
Bird entered as sureties and he was re-
leased.
Joseph Hamilton. colored, a felon,
attempted to vote in the Tenth Ward
He was arrested and taken to the City
Hall cells, and will have hearing this
afternoon.
Solomon Lewis, COL, about two
months ago, broke open door of the
house belonging to his landlady, Mrs.
White, and assam lied her vigorously.
A warrant was issued for his arrest,
but he fed, and remained away until
last night, when he returned for the
purpose of voting to-day. This morn.
ing officer Whalen served the warrant,
arrested the offender, and brought him
to the cells. He will have a hearing
this afternoon.
This morning the Mayor swore in num-
ber OF special policemen, and these, together
: with the Deputy Marshsls, will be amp'y
, sufficient to keep order.
Returns ir)m the State. indicating the
general result, will be published in an extra
GAZETTE Which will be issued tomorrow

This evening returns by telegraph will bt
received at the Democratic Head quarters, il

CHARADEs AND TABLEAUX.-On We'd
nesday and Thursday evenings of last
week, the young ladies and gentlemen of
Christ Church Sunday School, of Della
ware City, gave an entertainment con-
sisting of well selected charades and
tableaux. The charades, "hresistibly
Impudent,' and, mo Rose Without
Thorns," were particularly well render
ed. One Of the ladies tainted so grace
fully that one of the audience, q son Of
the Emerald Isle, exclaimed, Did yees
iver see anybody die SO purty2" The
young people deserve a great deal Of
credit-the evenings performance being
pronounced complete success by many
who had the pleasure of witnessing it
Mr.. Duncan's string band, of New Cas-
tie, added greatly to the attractions o.
the evening. We congratulate the Ia
dies and gentlemen of the Sunday Schoo
and hope they will favor us again sooI
with another equally as good entertain
ment. S.

TuEArRIcAL.--The audience at the
Grand Opera House last evening to wit
ness Mrs. f. w. Landers' rendition Of
Queen Elizabeth was small but of very
appreciative character. This was ac-
counted for by the great and absorbing
interest of the General Election. The
performance was perhaps the best that
has been given upon tnat stage. AS
Queen Elizabeth, Mrs. Lander, in her
style, has no equal in the country. The
support was excellent. Mr.. Taylor, rs
Earl of Essex could scarcely be excelled.

The insurance companies are becoming
alarmed at the frequency OF terrible fires in
Chicago, and are about to take means to pro-
tect themselves At recent meeting of UNDER
writers in Chicago, representing 500, 900 900 of
capital, resolutions prepared for presentation to
the city council were adopted demanding a
complete reorganization OF the fire department,
the extension OF the fire limits, the org anz alton
OF corps OF ssppers and miners a. auxiliary to
the IRE department, the immediate increase of
the capacity Of water pipes and number Of fire
plugs, the purchase OF additional steam engines
OF extra power, the gradual removal Of lumber
yards from the thickly settled portions of the
city, and the immediate protection OF the i'm
Fortant business center of the city from the
great mASs Of frame buildings In the southern,
western and northern sections, either by demol
sbipg such buildings entirely to the width OF
say cne-haif Of a mile from the nearest point of
their exposure, or by the erection Of numerous
heavy and nigh IRE walls, interesting those
hazardous localities, or by other effectual
means. Unless these reforms are adopted, the
underwriters express the opinion that the corn
Panies they represent will take no more risks
IN Chicago.

The question now is, what are democratic
principles? They seem to vary considerably
according to locality, and the task Of welding
them into national platform is one which IL
likely to give "the opposition" some trouble.
The New York correspondent OF the Philadel-
phia Ledger says that the democratic leaders,
such OF them as are in that city, are not a little
"put out' by the plank in the Indiana demo-
cratic platform which proposes to pay of the
national debt in sreenbacks, and after brief
consultation At the Manhattan Club they have
come TO the conclusion that something must be
done 70 counterfeit the bad effect 1t must have
on the fall elections. Among the dissentients
from the platform may be included Congress
men Cox and Fernando Wood. The former is
credited with saying that the resolution in
question will Compel the democracy to do their
work over again 10 convince the people that
reputation is not in any sense a part OF their
doctrine, present or future.

The religious press have come to the pretty
unanimous conclusion that Ii is injudicious on
the part OF the friends of Mr.. Beecher to en-
deavor to compromise" the Tilton scandal, or
TO make a vhitewsshing investig alton. The
ChristicH Adroo0te, which last week was anxious
for an investigation and clearing up of the mys-
terry, rejoices this week that the investigation
has begun, and that it promises to be earnest
and thorough. IL regrets, however, that Mr..
Beecher and his friends did not see their way
clear to have constituted the committee little
differently, both as to its personnel and the
mode OF selection. The Advocate reminds Mr.
Beecher and his friends that this is not simply a
personal and family affair between Mr.. Beecher
and his church, but stretches out far beyond
that and even beyond the bounds of the Con-
gregational denomination. It suggests, there
fore, that six other gentlemen, the peers in
Christian character and reputation of those
now engaged in the inquiry, be chosen from
other denominations and be added to the
committee. Ii adds that an examination
ard report by such committee could
not sfterxard be called in question. The
Bdptst Union holds that il Mr.. Beecher has
committed offences which would depose an ordi-
nary man from the ministry he should be deposed
regardless Of his brilliant talents and his great
genius. We cannot have one rule for small men
and another for great men. "It is better" il
says, ''tO lose every great man in the world from
the ministry than to wink at lewdness in their
ranks" TIE Liberal Christian thinks the great
preacher OF Plymouth church has kept silence
too long and compr Jmised too much already,
and that nothing but q clear and free vindics-
ton OF his character will now avail. Nothing
It thinks, "can be worse for the public morals
than the unhealthy excitement which secrecy,
tnnuendoes and apparent fear of investigation
have produced. The Freemaa's Journal says
that Beecners sermons .'are occupied with
blasphemOus descriptions of our Lord and
Saviour, and on other points make the Gospel
the exponent OF ncentiousness''-as in the in
stance which it refers to Mr.. Beecher's pub
hshed discourse TO prove, In which he represents
"the PrOdigal Son a. the best fellow of the two,
and the only reason the other didn't waste his
living among bsrlots was that he wasn't man
enough " have his fing!"
