arc constantly greeted with the
sweet Naturalization OF the merry
sleigh bells.
"How they tinkle, tinkle. tintie,
In the icy air Of night.
while the stars that oveR-sprinkle,
An the heavens seem to twinkle
with crystalline delight
As the jolly pleasure seekers pass
to and fro. There appears to us to
be . significant meaning. an un.
written language in the music OF
bells, whether it be the sharp clank
Of the alarm, the mellow tone of the
church, the solemn toll of the
funeral, or the lively jingle Of the
gliders over the snow. One brings
excitement and fear, one leads our
thoughts to the sweet hereafter, one
appeals to the heart and sympathy,
and the other to the gay and happy
features of our nature. There
comes 70 our memory now the recol-
lection Of q story read long ago, Of
= poor but gifted Italian who, after
many years Of sacrifice and toll,
completed o chmie Of bells whose
melody and tone seemed to his
musical soul the perfection Of sweet
ness. He sold them to . cathedral
near Lake Como, and with the
profits purchased a small cottage
near by, where the music of his be-
loved bells Ginning the Angelus,
was waited by gentle breezes across
the placid waters to his eager
listening ears. But there came
revolution and in the bitter whirl-
wind OF devastation and passion,
his home was wrecked, the cathe-
dral left . mass of ruins, the master
piece OF his nius carried to a
foreign land, and he q ruined wan
derer. His joys we're gone, his
heart was sick, earth held no resting
place for him, but wherever lie
roamed, in the midst of his dark
ness and gloom, in clashing waves,
by murmuring brook, or meath
swaying trees. he heard each hour
the lost chime, and in dreams they
whispered peace to his troubled
soul. One day he was told OF a
wonderful chime in Ireland, which
from convent steeple, summoned
the gray monk and pale-faced nun
to vespers and holy duties. Thither
he turned his weary footsteps, be
reached the Lake at nightfall and
embarked in a boat to row to the
church. It was q beautiful twilight
the air was soft; the stars shone
from the blue vaults. and as he
turned his eyes towards the distant
towers, they seemed to whisper te
him, his bells we're there. He
sighed "Oh, beloved bells, send
forth but one note Of welcome in
thy matchless melody; one chime as
Q requiem and my weary pilgrimage
is over" Hank !! The stiffness il
broken, and over the waters from
the sacred walls came a melody
like angels voices; the air was filled
with wonderful music as the long
lost, the dearly loved bells chimed
out the evening Angelus. As be
crossed himself, . heaven-born iighr
seemed TO brighten up his face; witt
the sound there rushed q food o.
memories Of home and loved ones
At last the goal was reached; at las
happiness and peace had come-fo
he was dead. His soul had passed
from its worn tenement to ascent
with the music Of his belovet
chimes, towards the far-of heaven

Patent YOUR MINES.

The following very sensible advice
comes from the San Francisco Stock
Exchange. Every locator should profit
by it: "At present an unusual mum
Der of mines are being located, and in
this connection n word Of warning
may be given. Locators are some
times grossly careless in failing to pat
ent their mines, thereby sowing the
seed of future litigation, complications
and trouble. When a mine is not pat
euted 1t is in jeopardy Of being Jump
ed" or in danger of becoming en-
tangled in a dispute over titles. Pat
enting a mine increases its value, ex-
actly as q lot of real estate with a clear
title will command a marked appre-
citation in price over q lot burdened
with a cloudy title. Therefore, il you
desire to avoid legal contests and all
other cognate difficulties, see that your
mine Is Patented"

TILDEN

If there Is any reliance to be placed
in Geographic adyices published here
with, Mr.. Tilden Is duly elected Presi-
dent Of the United State. We have
what purports to be the official vote Of
South Carolina, showing that two of
the Democratic Electors in that State
have been elected by small ma.jorities.
In South Carolina, as in California and
many other States of the Union, it Is
the custom of political conventions to
nominate an Elector from each OF the
Congressional districts and two at
large, the two latter representing rs it
were the two United States Senators to
which every State is entitled. The Re-
publican Electors at large in South
Carolina were S. G. Bowen and John
Winsmith. The former received 80, 1856
votes and the latter 80 $50. The Dem.
ocraiic candidates at large were +. G.
Barker and Samuel MCGOWAN. Bar
ker received 9O,S96, and DcGowan 3d.
937. This elects both of the Democrats
by an average majority of So; or put
ting it In another light the highest
Democrat beats the highest Republi-
can ITO, and the lowest Democrat beats
the lowest Republican 81; or taking
still a different view of the case, which
is perhaps the correct one, the lowest
Democrat beats the highest Republican
&c, and the lowest Republican ITO. AT
all events both are elected, and so is
Tilden, II the returns under notice
have been correctly telegraphed. The
Republicans elect the balance of their
electoral ticket in South Carolina by
a average majority of 696. This is
close work all around, but in the lam
guage Of a California celebrity the
Democrats "have got 'em by a few"
In Louisiana, Tilden, according to
our dispatches, will have q majority OF
5000. Ii the two Democratic Electors
from South Carolina are not in some
way ruled out, the Republicans will OF
course surrender Louisiana without
further contest. We have nothing this
morning from Florida.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.
With regard to the arrival of troops
from South Carolina, via Fortress
Monroe, yesterday, the President said
this morning that il was merely an or
binary change of station. Gen. Sher-
man says there are foul artillery COM
panies equipped, together with three
cavalry companies from Forts Leaven-
worth and Riley, which arrived to-
day. They belong to Gen. Hancock's
command, which includes the City of
Washington. General Sherman en-
phatically denies that this change of
quarters has any political significance
whatever, and says that therefore there
is no Ca use whatever for excitement on
account of it.
The President is preparing his an
nual message to-day.

TALLAHASSEE, FLA, Nov. 10.
There is reasonable ground for be-
lievipg that Gov. Stearns will assume
that the State Board has no power to
the electoral vote, but that the
power resides in the Governor. The
assumption is based upon the fact that
the act creating the Returning Board
does not use the word ELECTORS" The
are astonished that this
claim should be set up, and contend
that the reason why the word electors
g not used in the act referred to is
because the electors are in.
under the head of State officers.

SCORE ONE FOR GRANT.

1t is not often that an official act OF
the President, who is encircled with
corrupt rings. is commendable or meets
with general approval, but in justice to
the third termer it must be admitted
that he is entitled to some credit for
not accepting the resignation OF
Schenck at the present time. While
many may condemn his cour,e for not
removing the author of the . Treatise
ca Poker" or least, investigate the
charges against him at an earlier day,
Is is gratifying to learn that even at
this late hour Congressional lnvesti-
cation of his connection with the
Emma Mine and SLAYER Machado's
claims against the British Government
will be had and that the President posi-
lively refuses to accept bis resignation
until those charges are Investigated.
Il is alleged that Schenck prostituted
BIS position as United States Minister
10 England by lending his name to the
Emma Mine Sw:ndle. Eugllsh men
who invested heavily in the scheme
and lost all they invested charge that
they were led to do so by the repre-
sensations of Schenck, who was
leagued with the promoters of the
swindle. This has made the name OF
the American Minister by-word and
reproach in England. In justice to the
nation of which he is tie accredited
representative an impartial investiga-
ton of the charges should be made,
and if they are proven Schenck should
receive greater punishment than the
simple acceptance Of bis resignation.

land who disgraees himself, his posi-
ton. and his country should not be
permitted to'eseape. the consequences Of
