JoLLIFfCSTroN, ETc.-The democrats
of our village celebrated on Saturday
evening last the recent victory of their
party in the State and throughout the
country. Speeches were made by Col.
Downs, Col. Blackstone, James H. VII
son, Joseph H. Key and d. C. Ham,
NETT, the streets were illuminated by
bonfires, and general jollifcation OBJ
tanned. In this connection, We feel
called upon to state, that the democrat
ic party of St. Mary's is under many
obligations to the gentlemen named
above, as well as to Hon. b. G. Harris,
Col. Dent, DR.. Lynch, Jos. II. .Allstan,
and others whose names may have es-
capped us, for their efficient labors on
the stump and their general personal
exertions during the late canvass in
bringing out the democratic vote
Though this vote was by no means as
full as could have been wished, never
theless it was largely to the labors' of
the gentlemen named that the heavy
republican majority obtained here by
Grant and Albert in ~ has been re-
duced to mere bagatelle. All honor
to the working democrats of st. Mary $
in every quarter Of the county!

ELECTION THounLEs.-One Of the

Tuesday was an ARRAY between two n

From words they proceeded to blows,
and from blows to shots, and : promi-

In Maryland, q far a. We have learned,

cept in Anne Arundel county. A riot
occurred in the Third Election District
of that county, and there was q street
affray in Annapolis. A horrible riot
occurred at Eufaula, Alabama, which
the agent of the Associated Press says
was provoked by a black man. Wheth-
er the man struck the first blow or not, it
resulted in killing of some twenty Of
the colored people and the wounding Of
fifty or sixty more.

A NEW PoLrTIcAL PAHrr.-From tie
Ssn Of the 7th instant, we see that q
new Political party has Just BEEN organ
lied by the white Republicans in the
goth ward of Baltimore city. The meet
ing. rs advertised, took place at Hart
zell's Hall, and the Sxs states there
was a good attendance. The object Of
the meeting seemed TO be, the formation
of white republican party, from which
colored voters are to be excluded, at
least in making the future nominations
of the party. eff that" said one of the
speakers, "don't suit our colored friends,
let them vote with the democratic par
ty. What the republican party loses
by their not voting with them, they
would gain in those who are standing
back on account of the negro" Anoth-
er speaker favored laying the 'nigger'
ON the shelf" Another declared, chat
the 'niggers' had killed the party. At
the congressional election, the negroes
did nothing for Cox. They stood on
the corners and smiled, while the white
men did the work" Another proposed
to interview" Collector Booth and ''de-
mand that he dismiss the colored men
in the custom-house and appoint white
men in their places" Another shouted,
PUT none but Americans on guard !"
a shout, bye-the-bye, we think we have
heard before. Finally, after much more
speechifying of a like envenomed char
acter, the meeting adjourned, after pas
sing a resolution that, in making future
for the Republican party,
the black man must take a back seat.
To do the speakers justice, they abused
the democrats quite as much as they
did the colored people, one of them de-
claring, chat he had sailed under three
parties already, the whig, know-noth-
ing and republican, and he was willing
to go anywhere, except to the democrat
&c party"

THURSDAY MORNING. November u, 1874

The EIEcTrox.-The Tidal Wave ~
rs it is called, which swept over the
country on Tuesday, the 3rd of Novem.
Ter, instant, sweeping with it into re-
tirement the Republican party in al
most every State voting-23 m number
still continues to exercise both press
and ross-um, and multitudinous are the
causes assigned for the extraordinary
manifestation, scarcely any two agree
ing, however, in the premises taken
Independent Of the number Of demo-
Gratis elected to Congress- list Of
which is elsewhere given-in many Of
the States, Governors, members of the
Legislature and other State officials
were chosen and in almost every case
il is the same story, the Tidal Wave
has overtaken and overwhelmed the
long dominant party in the most thor.
ough defeat known to our political his
tory. The popular majority for the
democrats is TO be estimated by the
hundred thousand and the most relia-
bic accounts from the Congressional
vote give them l72 as against los for
the Republicans in the next Congress
"a majority of 50 for the former. We
are indebted to the Baltimore american
of the 9TH instant for the statistics fol.
lowing:
The House of Representatives is COM
posed Of 292 members, and at present
the Republicans have 1876 members,
and the Democrats 96, the majority of
the former being 100. In the elections
for the next House all the States have
voted except California, Connecticut,
Mississippi and New Hampshire, which
do not choose their representatives IN
til next spring.
The Senate will remain Republican
for several years to come, but the ma
jority will be decreased considerably af
ter the 18th of March. There are "a
Senators; the Republicans now have
40, the Democratic and Liberal opposi-
ton "a, and one Of the Louisiana seats
Is vacant. The terms of "a Senators
expire i'll March next, of whom IL are
Republicans. OF these seventeen, Mes
srs. Buckingham of Connecticut. Pratt
of Indiana, Chandler of Michigan, Scott
of Pcnnsy lvania, Brownlow of Tennes-
sec, Flanagan OF Texas, Lewis of Vir-
GINA, and Foreman of West Virginia
will be succeeded by Democrats. From
this Republican loss of eight, however,
Is to be subtracted gain of two, which
will be made by the elections of repub-
ican successors in Nebraska and Rhode
Island to Messrs. Upton and Sprague,
who are Democrats to all practical pur-
poses. 1t seems then that after the 4th
Of March the Senate will consist of 43
Republicans and 80 Democrats, With
the probability of their number being
increased to 81 by the filing of the seat
from Louisiana now contested.
The chief interest attaches to the
consideration of what the electoral vote
is likely to be III 1876. The total mum.
Der of votes in the Electoral College is
500, requiring le4 as a ma ority for the
election of President and Vice Presi-
dent. Surprising that the States which
have already voted this year were to
give majorities for the democrats in
-S1f as they have done now, the Elec-
toral College so far as they are con-
cerncd would stand about as follows:

SAvrxa SEED CoRx.-The best plan,
as q general thing, is to select the best
ears at the time of husking. and spread
them ON the barn acor, 30 that the cobs
can become thoroughly dry. The old
method Of leaving the husks attached
to the oorn, 20 that il could be braided
together, and suspended in . dry and
airy place, brought about similar re-
suit. In al cases, the corn should be
kept where Il will be free from damp
ness. Many, in saving seed, are parti-c
ular to select only from stalks that
produce two large, well developed ears
As You ~, corn d often planted %
