Ed. TELEGRAPH:-The tranquility
which always precedes removal,w
ruffled last evening at the Asbury
Parsonage, by the arrival of quite
a crowd OF young people; strange to
say, the entire company neglected
to announce their intention OF
coming; had they not provided
agenerous supply Of edibles it is to
be feared they would have suffered
for their negligence.
A very pleasant evening was passed,
some Of the ladies kindly relieving
the bewllGered surprise Of attempt
ing, on so short 81 notice, to interest
the company. After the refresh
ments had been disposed of, Miss
Clara Epson, with graceful little
speech. presented the undersigned
with a handsome writing-desk, con-
tanning a full supply of writing
materials, in behalf OF her Bible class
The grateful, though overpowered
recipient of this gift, attempted to
express her gratitude, but to this
moment remains in doubt as to what
idea the words conveyed TO those
assembled. The first use she wishes
to make Of her writing-desk, is to
tender her warmest thanks to all
participants in the affair, not forget
ting the gentleman who was kind
enough to bring the desk from Keno
sha. The young people of Bristol
may rest assured that their gift is
appreciated, and their kindness will
always be remembered by their sim
cerely grateful friend.

CORRESPONDENTS are requested not
to furnish us communications for the
TELEGRAPH which they have furnished
for other papers without informing us
that they have done so. As we remem-
Der, as far as the Telegraph is concern
ed, the practice of sending the same
communication to two papers originate
eel with Bristol correspondent, and
some other Bristol correspondents have
followed the example. Except reports
of public meeting, notices of marriages,
deaths or something of that kind, we
do not intend to publish communica-
tiOns furnished also for other papers.
And even such reports and notices gen
orally better be furnished by different
correspondents. We have often adj
mitted communications to encourage
the writer's which we scarcely deemed
worthy of publication, and after doing
SO, we have sometimes found the same
communication in the Union of the
same date of the TELEGRAPH. This is
all wrong and we cannot tolerate it.
As far as the correspondents are con-
cerned it is asking the editors to make
up their papers Of the same thing. And
this is scarcely modest, and can only be
prompted by placing an undue estimate
upon their own communications.

THE ELECTIONS.

The news on Wednesday morning
from the elections in Ohio, Indiana and
West Virginia on Tuesday the 10th, in
dictate that Ohio has gone Republican
by about 10000 majority, and elected
y of the 20 Representative in Con-
gress, which is gain of 5, making a
change of 10; that Indiana has gone
Republican or SO far reduced the Dem
ocratic majority as to make it nearly
certain to go Republican in November
and that West Virginia, though always
conceded to the Democrats, may posi-
bly, have elected Golf, Republican, Gov
ernOr.

ing by few appropriate and interest
ing remarks and then introduced Hon
G. G. Williams.
Mr.. Williams spoke over an hou
and half enchanting the attention OF
the audience to the close and frequent
/ ly eliciting applause. He spoke OF the
past and present positions OF the
Democratic party and compared the
one with the other. He compared the
Democratic administrations with Re-
publican administrations and showed
| that the expenditures proper OF the
former were far higher than those OF
/ the latter, that the credit Of the Gov
eminent to obtain money on its bonds
stood in time of peace as II to II
under Buchanan's administration to
| AZ under Grants, and that the expen-
ditureS per capita were still greater IN
proportion under Buchanan's admins
tratiOn than under Grants.
He next spoke of the solid South for
the Democratic party and it's candl-
dates showing that it would require
but AZ electoral votes from the North
to elect Tilden and Hendricks who
had always been and would be with
the South. He showed how the South
would be carried solid for the Demo-
Gratis by the use of the shotgun by
organized mobs of White Liners who
would go out in the night and some
times in the day and shoot dozen OF
a score of black and sometimes
white Republicans, and thus by
murder and general intimidation
prevent the Republicans FROM going to
the polls unless they will vote the
Democratic ticket. He showed that
hundreds were thus murdered without
the murderers being brought to justice
or any legal proceedings had in the
cases, and even, as at Hamburg, if the
authorities should attempt to proceed
against them 1000 well armed and
mounted men and 1000 W ell armed men
on foot appeared when the grand jury
was in session indicating to the jury
that it would not be safe to proceed
against the murdererS and that the jury
adjourned without taking any action.
He then spoke Of what the result
would be if the solid South with Al
electoral votes from the North should
elect a President and Vice-PreSident,
showing that the rebels would control
the Government, assume the rebel debt
and pension the rebel soldiers,
repeal the amendments to the
constitution. reduce the blacks
to serfdom, pay the rebels for all
property taken or destroyed by the
Union army, and all that they could
falsly prove to have been taken or
destroyed, and for all damages sustain
ed in consequence of either Union or
Rebel armies in the South, and for all
slaves lest, killed, or emancipated. These
and other matters referred to and that
would be trumped UP would amount to
a sum far greater than the war debt,
and he showed that the allowance OF
the rebel demands under the solid
South administration would bankrupt
the country.
The foregoing is only brief and
imperfect notice of some OF the sub
jects spoken of by Mr.. Williams but it
is all we can find space for in this
paper. Those who heard the speech
need no report of it and those who did
not must elaborate what Mr.. Williams
said as we'll as they can.

The Electoral Vote.
Views of Senator sherman.

Senator John Sherman sends to the Cincin.
natl Commercial an important statement of the
manner in which the twenty-secoud joint rule
of the two Houses of Congress, regulating the
mode of counting the electoral vote for Presi-
dent, was abrogated. 1t is as follows:
On the 18th of December, 1875, Mr.. Edmunds
of Vermont offered resolution as follows:
Resolued That the joint Iules of the Senate and
House of Representatives in force at the close of the
last session Of Congress be and the same hereby
adopted as the joint rules of the two houses at the
present session.
After statement by Mr., Edmunds that his
object was to obtain report of the Committee
on Rules as to whether the joint rules of the
last session were in force without any vote at
the present session, the resolution was referred
to that committee.
January 10, 1876, the Committee on Rules.
by Mr.. Hamlin, reported back the resolution.
with an amendment, making it a concurrent
resolution of the two houses, instead of a mere
resolution OF the Senate. he also stated his
view of the joint rues-that they were only Oh
erative upon the two houses by acquiesence, as
each House was by the Consultation. empow-
cred to make its own rules.
Mr. Morton then moved to except the Twenty
second JOINT Rule, leaving the rest in force,
Ihereupon the resolution and amendment went
over. Congressional Record p. 309.]
On the 10th of January, 1876, the resolution
was again taken up and the amendment of Mr.
Morton excepting the Twenty-second Joint
Rule, was adopted Mr.. Bayard then offered
substitute, which was rejected, and the resolu-
ton in the form of concurrent resolution was
adopted by the Senate. Congressional Record,
D. $40.
The action of the Senate on this resolution
could only be understood by reference to the
deblte on the bill introduced by Mr.. Morton
ct the beginning of the session, to provide
for and regulate the counting of votes

nous figure of 257,000. The average daily
attendance for September was $4,000. for
October 10000, for November 100000. On
Friday 10000 paying visitors Wit
messed the closing ceremonies. The
total paying admissions have been over
100000, and the receipts at the turnstiles
over $3,S1O,00O. The amount received from
concessions is $500,0O0, so that the total re-
ceipts are over $4,3OO,OOO. The number of
visitors and the amount of the receipts
far exceed even the most successful
of previous Exhibitions, that at Paris.
though that ran a month longer and
was open Sundays, adding nearly another
month to the number of its days. The sur
plus over all expenses of the Philadelphia
Exhibition is S2,0O0000. The least successes,
however, of the exhibition are in point of
attendance and receipts. Its great triumphs
are its large influence upon international
commerce and friendship, its grand display
OF American resources and skill, and its OBJ
ject teaching in industry and art through the
displayed products of thirty nations. But we
Americans, as nation, can take little
credit to ourselves for its success. In its in
caption we jeered at it, and until the last few
months gave it but cold support. To Phila-
delphia faith and enterprise and persistence,
and to the efforts of few wise and far-seeing
citizens of other portions of the country, we
owe it that we have had 'the largest, best
situated, best arranged, best managed, and
most successful Exhibition ever held"
The Portland daily press., 1876-11-13
The Close Of the Exhibition,

At four o'clock Friday afternoon the pulses
of the huge Corlss engine ceased to beat, and
the International Exhibition of 1875 came to
close. Scarcely had the pistons suspended
their stroke when the work of disntegration
began, and the packing boxes made their ap-
pearance at the doors of the Main Building.
Six months have passed since at the touch of
the ruler of the land twelve acres OF machin-
cry were PIT in motion, and the largest and
most successful OF World Fairs was formally
opened. Now that it is closed few words
inthe nature of review are not amiss.
The attendance has been unprecedentedly
large, though for months the exhibition had
little place in public favor, and the American
people persstently neglected the greatest ed
ucational opportunity which has ever been
offered them. On the opening day the num-
ber of paying admissions was 10000. Then it
steadily fell away, aud not until the 18th of
September did it touch those figures aeain.
From that time on it gained, never falling be-
low $4,000, and Oh one day reaching the enor.

For Tilden.
Florida.

The Democrats still claim Florida, but on
no grounds at all and in defiance of all proba-
bilities. The Republicans are confident that
they have the state and with it the election,
and their confidence is based on the following
facts:
In Florida in past years the Western and
Southern districts have been Democratic, the
eastern and northeastern Republican. In
the Western district, embracing seven coun-
ties, the Republicans gain one county this
year and gain $40 votes, leaving but 1923 Dem
ocratic majority. In the Southern district
there are ten counties, which give Demo-
cratic gain of 463 and Democratic majority
of 2,543. In the Eastern district there are
eight counties, and the Republican gain is
527, and the majority All. The northeast
ern counties are fourteen in number and in
1874 gave 5,947 Democratic and 1898 Repub-
lican votes. Ten of these counties have been
heard from, and show Republican gain of
1914. Thus in two of the districts there is
Democratic majority of 1896, in one of the
districts Republican majority of All. and
one district to hear from which gave 246 Re.
publican majority in 1874. In ten counties
of this last district the Republicans have
gained 1914, and the Democrats in order to
carry the state must gain 1900 votes in four
small counties, which is not in the range of
probabilities.
