Elections were held on Tuesday in
Massachusetts, New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Illinois, Wisconsin, New Jer-
sey, Kansas, Minnesota, Maryland,
Mississippi and Virginia, and from
all but four comes swelling on the
breeze the tidings of Republican vic
tory, New York being yet in doubt.
Among these are the Republican
States that last fall were overwhelm-
ed with the ''tldal wave" Of Democ-
racy, but now again take their place
in the Republican line with decisive
majorities for correct principles and
true reform. The surge of success
that one year ago placed the Democ-
racy in possession of temporary and
unwonted power and place, has set
back with an impetus that proclaims
the popular distrust of that party,
and unerringly indicates the inten-
ton of the people next year to again
entrust the destines of the nation to
the hands of the party that saved it
in the hour of peril. We give below
a brief summary of the results of
last Tuesdays Elections, SO far as re-
ceived:

wages but she teaches like no other.

NEW JERSEY.

New Jersey elected members of
the Legislature this year. In the
present Senate the Republicans have
5 majority, and in the House the
Democrats have majority Of o.
In Tuesdays election the Democrats
gained two in the Senate, making the
Republican majority 8, but the Re-
publicans have 81 out of the sixty
members of the House, a majority of
IA, thus ensuring the election OF
Republican to succeed U. S. Senator
Frelinghuysen. Bedle Democrat,
tor Governor, had majority of 49,
233 in 1874.

The election In Kansas was on
members of the Legislature and
county affairs. The dispatches indi-
cate that the Republicans have two
thirds of the Legislature, and make
large gains on the popular vote.

MASSACHUSETTS.

The Old Bay State last year gave
CASTOR, Democrat, for Governor, a
majority of 1898. This year, on q
largely decreased vote, Rice, Repub
lican, is elected by a majority of over
5000, and the Republicans have
large majority in the Legislature
gaining heavily. Grape, Republican,
for Congress IN the LIST district has
400 majority.

WISCONSIN

Two years ago Wisconsin was
swallowed up in an Autobiography
whirlpool, Taylor the candidate Of
that party for Governor, receiving a
majority of 1912. Two years Of
bogus "reform" has brought the peo-
pie of our sister State to their senses.
and this year they have elected a
Republican Governor, and repudiated
that same Taylor (who has been
proved a first-class fraud and dema-
gogue) by a majority Of 1000. The
whole Republican State tickets elect
ed by corresponding majorities, and
the Republicans have majority Of
80 on JOINT ballot in the Legislature

NEW YORK.


The result on the general ticket is
very close and yet uncertain, though
the latest returns show a Democratic
majority of from 1000 to 5000. The
official count will probably be requir-
ed to determine the result. The
Democratic majority in the City of
New York is about $4,000. The Re
publicans have large gains in the in
terror. The Tammany ticket in the
city is beaten at all points. John
Morrissey has reported majority of
$4,000 for the State Senate. The Re-
publicans are largely in the ascend
ency in the Legislature. Columbia,
the home of Gov. Tilden, gives a Re
publican majority. The result in the
Empire State, however it may result,
is a dampener on Iilden's Presiden-
t1al aspirations. The Democratic
majority on Governor in New York
one year ago was 5o,317.

The Keystone State handsomely
reyerses the verdict Of last year when
the Democrats elected their candidate
for Lieutenant Governor by 4,679
majority. The latest reports give
Hartranft, Republican, tor Governor,
1900 majority, gain of nearly
22,ooo,n one year. This is a glorious
result when we consider the prevail
ing depression in manufactures and
the consequent hard times among
the working men. The Democracy
framed their platform on the Ohio
rag-money model, and appealed di-
rectly to the working classes with
the specious promise of plenty of
greenbacks, but even thus sugar
coated the sturdy Pennamites reject
ed the Democratic pill.

Mrs, Lincoln 1T Springfield.

A dispatch from Springfield states tha
Mrs. Lincoln arrived there on Monday,
and will sojourn for time at the residen. e
of the Hon. Ninian Edwards. Mrs.
Edwards ia a sister of Mrs. Lincoln, and
when the news came 10 Springfield Of
the assassination of Mr.. Lincoln, sent word
to the widow that she would be glad to
have her come TO Springfield and make her
house her home and rest and abide with
her.
1t is an experiment, ,indorsed by the ply
slcian at the retreat at Batavia, where she
has been for some time, in the hope that a
change of surroundings may result to her
advantage, although he doubts the proprie-
ty Of the change. She was accompanied
by her son, Robert Lincoln, and during
her stay in Springfield will be at the resi-:
dence of Edwards, where everything that
can be done for her comf.rt and health
will be affectiona.ely extended. 1t may
be that the quiet and freedom which she
will 10y will hasten the entire restorc'
ton Of her mental and physical health.

The rapidity with which France has re.
covered from the disastrous effect of hei
fight with the German Empire, under the
lead of Prussia, is one of the remarkable
problems of the age, and has not its paral-
lei in the history of the world.
-Four years after contest; in which she
was apparently ruined, politically and
financially, to-day France is one of the
most prosperous nations of the Globe, and
her credit is second to none.
Her commerce is rapidly increasing, and
it may not be many years before she stands
a fair rival Of Great Britain for the trade
of the world.
1t is officially declared that her trade re-
turns for the first seven months of 1875
show an increase in the value tf exports
of 26o,ooo,ooo francs (s52, ,ooo,ooO) as COM
pared with the corresponding period of
1874; in the same time the value of the
imports has decreased by A, 4,0O0,0 900 francs
(SS, SO0,00O); the result is that France OBJ
tains the difference in gold.
This is Il gratifying exhibit for the Re-
public, and will go far towards convincing
the world that the present government
meets all the needs of the country. That
her wonderful recuperation is due in a
great measure to the frugality of her peo-
pie and the industry of her mechanics, is
a lesson which our own countrymcn might
do well to study.

Il CENTENNIAL FARCE,

THE BATTLE OF BRANDYwINE RE-FoUGHT-
"wE, THE PEOPLE, ON A GRAND Pa
TRIOTIC TEAR.
A week or so since posters were spread
throughout the city and neighboring coun-
try, yea, verify, not satisfied with this range
of patriotic brotherhood, said posters were
unselfishly fiaunted in the eyes of the peace
full Chester countians. These hand-bills an
nounced in glowing terms that "We, the
People," would make grand excursion on
the 18th of September to Chadd's. Ford to
celebrate in becoming manner the 9sth
anniversary of the battle of .Brandywinc
A half dozen speakers were announced land
the innocent people of Chester, led by the
announcement Of the little Diamond State,
focked in great numbers to the field. There
they waited and walked and walked and
waited, looking for the train that was to
bear the excursionists, cornet bands and
speakers. The expectant Pennsylvanians
at last caught sight of the train moving
towards them, but, Oh !! Hearts of Lafa-
yette, Pulaski and Washington, it was a
train wherewith the Wilmington and Read
ing road is wont to freight their coal,
bovines, ct cetera; though it was discovered
that passenger car did actually hang on
behind. Time of arrival 1890 o'clock. The
party alighting moved onward to the battle
field, led by We, the People," We, the
People, soon after the arrival distributed
to the brave centennials number of tin
horns, from the music of which the visitors
were soon persuaded that the posters had
told the whole truth in announcing "bands. !"
Thence to the grounds from which Pulaski
made his sweeping charge, did the
phalanx march, much to the edifcation
and delight of all present. Here
was an old gentleman of eighty eight whose
sire had fought upon the ground ninety
eight years ago, who had Travelled q long
distance to take part in the glorious demon
stration. Said the old gentleman, ~ have
the gun at home that my father used, and
l known that such fine anniversary would
be held, should have brought it along, and
maybe could have put it to some good use."
gun was fired, the sound Of which rever-
bera.ed among IL hills around and walked
from its lethargic. condition the stream Of
patriotic blood In the veins of those attend
ing. Whence followed speeches full of
warmth by eminent gentlemen accompany
ing the party. "Just ninety-eight years
ago to-day" was the patriotic strain, and
even the clouds that overhung the parting
glory of the God of day were tinged with the
ruddy pigmentation Of the heroes gone some
five score years ago. Thus the celebration
continued; but bark down from the hill
where Knyphausen erstwhile hurled his
cowardly red coats, came the stentorian
tones of the farmer who owned the land
whcreon the reve|eys were indulging in
revolutionary speecn,hnd song. Hewished
them to depart, and gathering up the empty
lager keg, the band of patriots shook the
crimson dust from their feet, moving cast
ward to the tune Of Yankee Doodle.
