EIGHT COMPANIES OF ARTILLERY, ARMED AS
INFANTRY, GOING INTO WINTER QTARrEBs.
WASHINGTON, November 20.-To night,
eight companies Of artillery, armed as in
fantry, are here, and more are expected.
General Barry, commanding at Fortress
Monroe, has been ordered here to take com
mand. Gen. Sherman says tonight that
the presence of the military has no special
significance; that the companies have been
doing duty on the frontier and in the South;
are no longer needed at that point, and that
they may remain in Washington for an in
definite length OF time.
The presence of the military creates ap-
prehension and disgust to some extent
among the Democrats. The more hot
headed assume that it means to inaugurate
Hayes by force, and that 1t anticipates what
will really be the outcome of the count by
the Returning Boards of Florida and Lou
isiana.
Those inclined to take sensible and dis
passionate view of the presence of por-
tion of the army are Of the opinion that the
Democrats can blame themselves. They
have made threats OF what would be done
in case the Returning Boards of Louisiana
and Florida declared for Hayes, and the
President. out of the abundance of caution,
has massed troops here not for the pur-
pose OF inaugurating anybody by force, but
to see that whoever is legally declared
elected shall be inaugurAted without oppo-
sition from the dissatisfied elements of
either party.
In short, 1T means that il the spirit of re-
bellion is again rampant the Executive
will not, as in 1860, be without the means
of putting it down.
President Grant will go as far to inaugur-
ate Governor Tilden peaceably if he is de-
clared elected as he will for Governor
Havoc.

EMPHATIC DENIAL OF THE GENERAL PRESS
DISPATCH CLAIMING THAT THE STATE HAD
GONE DEMOCRATIC.
Special Dispatch TO the NeiO York Times.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 "A private dispatch
received here tonight from trustworthy
gentleman in New Orleans states that the
general press dispatch printed this morning,
claiming the election of Nichols and Demo-
cratic Electoral ticket,is wholly unfounded.
This gentleman gives no details, but says
the Republicans are confident that the
Democratic ticket will be found to be
largely in the minority when the
returns are finally counted. This
dispatch was received here in reply to one
in reference to the correctness of the press
dispatch referred to. Senator West de-
clines to have the name of his correspon-
dent published, but expresses full conf
dence in his Judgment and veracity.

REPAIRS AT No. 10 School House..
Workmen are now engaged in erecting a
substantial stone wall along the East side
of the yard OF No. 10 school house and
part Of the North end, in all 140 feet in
length. 1t is feet thick and feet high.

reception OF wooden posts, for wooden
fence on top Of the wall. The contract for
building the wall has been awarded to Mi

have an iron fence. The big wall has been
rendered necessary by frequent excavations
in the lot, which threatened in time to un-
dermlne the building.
