rOngres'lsionaI Cams.

The New York Times of Wednesday,
gives the following clear and intelligent
resume of the Congressional elections. and
says the gains are slightlyon the side of the
Republicans. Iowa and Georgia each give
one. with second Independent. Massa-
cbusetts has substituted three Republicans
for Democrats, with straight Republican
instead of Seelye, and Banks reelected on
a straight party ticket. From Pennsylva-
mia we have positive information Of two
seats rescued from the Democrats, with
rumors pointing to the success OF half a
dozen Others. Missouri has given US Re-
publican members in the First, Second,
Sixth and Tenth Districts. In Illinois also
one district-the frst-has been transfer
red to the Republicans. Thus, our assured
gains number twelve, with two doubtful
districts converted into certainties, and a
of yet larger Accessions from
Pennsylvania. On the other hand, the
Republicans have lost two districts in this
State, including that contested by Mr..
Spaulding, one in South Carolina, and two
in Mississippi. In Massachusetts, General
Butler has been elected by a large majori-

Two new candidates for public favor
come to our sanctum this week-the JEFF
ferson Gazette, by D. Lee & Son, and the
Madison Gazette. by Ralph R. Montgom-
cry. They are both readable local sheets,
and show commendable activity and tact
in their make up, and put forth claim to
favor and support We have now six pa
pers in this county with the seventh upon
our border. This multiplicity of papers
is compliment to the intelligence of the
people, and if supported, may also be
compliment to their local pride and hber-
ality. 1t is to be hoped that all will be
blessed with a plethoric purse a well sup
nlied iarler. and the recompence that
comes of diligence in business and the fill
ing of an honorable and glorious mission.
Secretary Morrrill's speech on the fnan-
cial issue. Saturday, attracted an immense
assemblage of business men. in Wall st.
Y. Y, who gave it the Endorsement
which enthusiastic applause indicates. Mr..
Morril's official position forbade any specif-
ic reference to the contrOverted statements
with regard to the effect of Democratic
victory on the funding operations of the
Syndicate. He spoke, however, with the
fullness of knowledge and the earnestness
of conviction as to the Republican admin
istration of the finances. and as to the GER
tainity of resumption which attends con-
tinuance of the Republican policy. And
exhibited in vivid contrast the hostile
course of the Democratic Party on matters
directly affecting the public faith. and the
opposition the party has displayed to prac-
teal measures leading to specie payments.
He insisted that the public credit has al
ready been restored, as the money markets
of the world now testify; and that the ques-
ton between the parties is, whether the
credit shall be maintained, as it will be in
the event of Republican success, or impair
ed as it must be, if the Democrats are in
vested with power.

PATENT SLATE PAINT
MIXED READY FOR USE,
Fire Proof. Water Proof, Durable, Eco
nOmicaI and Ornamental.
A roof may be covered with a very cheap
shingle and by application of this slate be
made to last from 20 to . years. Old roofs
can be patched and coated, looking much
better, and lasting longer than new shingles
without the slate, for
one Third the Cost Of ReshiRgIing.
The expense of stating new shingles is only
the cost of simply laying them. The paint is
TiI-e proof against sparks or flying embers, as
may be easily tested by any one
IT STOPS EVERY LEAK,
and for tin or iron has no equal, as it expands
by heat, contracts by cold, and aerer cracks
or scales Roofs covered with Tar Sheathing
Felt can be made water tight at small ex-
pense, and preserved for many years.
This Slate Paint is
EXTREMELY CHEAP.
Two gallons will cover hundred square
feet of shingle roof, while on tin, iron, felt,
matched boards, or any smooth surface, from
two quarts to one gallon are required to 100
square feet of surface, and although the paint
has heavy body, it is easily applied with
brush.
No Tar is used in this Composition,
therefore it neither cracks in Winter nor
runs in Summer.
On decayed shingles it fills up the holes and
pores and gives a new substantial roof that
will last for years. C5trled or IodTped shingles
it brings to their places, and keeps them
there. It fills up all holes in felt roofs, stops
the Ieaks-and although slow dryer, rain
does not affect il in few hours after apply

tain tar, be sure you obtain our genuine artl-
cler which (for shingle roofs is
CHOCOLATE COLOR,

month to a uniform size color, and is to all
intents and purposes slate On
TIN ROOFS
our red color is usually preferred, as one coat
is equal to five of any ordinary paint. For
BRICK WALLS
our bright red is the only reliable slate paint
ever introduced that will effectually prevent
dampness from penetrating and discoloring
the plaster.
These paints are also largely used on out
houses and fences, or as primary coat on
fine buildings.
Our colors are chocolate, red. bright red
and orange.

A WOMAN STRIKES HER HUSBAND WITH
AN AxE:--A melancholy affair occurred in
Spring Creek, Warren county, last Friday
morning. Mrs. E. Jewell became enrsged
at her hueband, because of some difficulty
regarding property left her by her frs,
husband. During the dispute Mrs.
Jewell suddenly seized an axe and struck
her husband with IL. The blade hit him
just under the shoulder blade, making q
wound over Eve inches long and several
inches deep. IL is supposed that it will
prove fatal. The woman was arrested and
taken to Jail. AT last reports she showed
signs Of insanity.
A singular case has deem developed in
New York, wherein q woman is accused OF
having sworn violence against six men, one
of whom has already served three of Q
twenty years term in the penitentiary, and
now it is strongly suspected that he wa;
innocent. Her plan was to appear at in
tervals as poor and unprotected girl jus
from Ireland, ask fer lodging at . police
station, and feigning illness wsuld send fol
an officer, and subsequently swear out {
charge Of outrage, and show marks Of ill
treatment in evidence. 1t is thought she
can be convicted Of perjury, but that car
scarcely help some of her victims, who
like him in prison, may have suffered fol
years from uni Just accusations. Such
case as this is public misfortune in add

.Ir is we'll to recollect, during all
this excitement, that the Presidential
electors will not meet in the several
States until the first Wednesday in
December, and that their votes will
not be connted until the second We'd
nesday in February. 1t is ON this late
date that the presiding officer of the
Senate, in the presence of the two
Houses of Congress, must declare who
is elected President. But Congress
will meet on the first Monday in De-
cember, and there is no reason why
the two houses should not, and every
reason why they should, in the time
intervening, agree upon such rules to
govern the counting of the electoral
vote IS will secure the peaceful and
law full adjustment of any dispute that
can arise. This is the very first busi-
ness to which Congress must give its
attention, and it will be well for the
leading men of both parties to consult
together upon the subject now, that
the necessary rules may be adopted
without delay and the anxiety of the
country-if the election ultimately
prove as close as it now. appears-be
allayed as speedily as possible
