We cannot regard the election OF
Butler as an unmixed evil. Rejoic-
ed 10 as it is by Republicans, it is
evidentthat The pArty's ostentatious
reputation Of the oblique-visioned
demagogue was the mere affection
Of a virtue. Of which il was not
possessed, and that Republicanism
and builerism are A. completely
identical as they ever were.
The presence Of Butler in the
House will be a constant reminder
to the people that Republican vir-
tue and especially that form Of it
known as "reform within the party"
Is a sham and delusion t; and in
that way will more than compen-
safe for any evils that may result
from the connection Of such a man
with the enactment Of the nations
laws In another way it will be an
effective warning against the meth
DDS and the manners with which
the Butler name is identified, and
may save more than one unsophis-
ticated Representative from falling
into the error Of assuming that
brag-bluster and trickery are evil
dences Of craftsmanship.

Recently tramp, says the Gin

dence of an old lady named Askew,
near Covington, and finding that
the woman and her grandchild-a
girl Of about twelve years or age
were the only occupants, ordered
them to give'him some food. The
old lady set before him the best she
had prepared in the house, but he
refused to eat it, and ordered some
ham and eggs fried. The little
granddaughter ran into an adjoin-
ing room, and procuring a shotgun,
she presented it at the fellow and
told him that il be didn't get out
at once she would blow his head
off! The fellow saw at a glance
that the child meant business, and
wasn't to be fooled with, and he
ran out OF the house and made his
way to the road as fast as his legs
could carry him. The little girl
followed him with her shotgun un-
til he was off the premises, when
she marched back and put her gun

the shower as it fell, says it was
perfectly clear at the time, and that
there was nothing unusual visible
in the sky at the place of the sing
ular occurrence. Mr.. r. Frank
Clark, Of Chester, returned from
CASTOR county last Monday and
brought a specimen Of the flesh
with him. A microscopic examin-
alton indicates that it resembles the

town, who had the temerity to
taste it, says the taste is similar to
that Of beef.

After the Battle.

Tie past week has been one OF
the most intense excitement-every
man, woman and child seeming TO
manifest particular interest in the
result Of the election. On Tues
day night the Democrats felt hap
by over the victory they had gain
ed in this county, and they con-
graduated themselves that the
chances were very favorable for
the election Of Tilden. But on
Wednesday the Republicans claim
ed that Hayes had carried the day,
and the consequences we're that the
Democrats looked and felt rather de-
spondent, until the news Of Thurs
day cast brighter prospect for the
election OF Democratic President,
and since that time up to this writ
log the indications are that Tilden
has been elected by 203 Of the 3Go
electoral votes. However, the
Republicans still claim that the
chances are abont equally divided
between Tilden and Hayes. A dis
patch from New York, dated the
10th, reads M follows:
There IL much subaucd but bit

Gratis tonight over the crisis. The
throng at the Manhattan Club was

pressed NAV be summarized thus
Democrats consider Grants order
sending troops into doubtful States
rs made for no other purpose than
10 assist Republicans IN counting
the votes Of Florida and Louisiana.
They hardly dare 10 hope for any
other result than that Hayes will
be counted in. Democrats firmly
believe that South Carolina. Florida
and Louisiana were carried for
Tilden, and that IL the votes Of any
OF these States are thrown out, IL
will be the worst outrage perpe-
tratod In the United States. Dem
ocrats say they have been called
upon by very many influential Re-
publicans who say that the sending
of troops Is an outrage that the
Republican rank and file OF voters
repudiate. Democrats do not con-
ccde by their apprehension that
the Presidency is lost TO Tildeu,
but they reafIirm again and again
that II Is through the keeping back
and classifying OF returns in States
that have uDquestiouably chosen
him by fair majorities.
We feel confident that the honest
majorities in South Carolina, Flori-
da and Louisiana are for Tilden,
and We are OF the opinion, also,
that the sending OF troops by Grant
to these doubtful States means no
good TO Democracy, and will prove
q disgrace to the American nation.

Popular Vote.

From the returns which have
been received we have complied q
table showing the majorities for
Tilden and Hayes respectively in
the different States, as near as those
majorites have been ascertained.
We have excluded Florida, South
Carolina and Louisiana from the
compilation, although there is hard
ly doubt that Tilden has carried
all these States. Without them,
and also without Colorado, in which
the electors have been chosen by
the Legislature, Tilden's popular
majorities foot up 1880, and
those Of Hayes 263, 800, giving Til
den a majority Of 10000 on the
popular vote. Tilden and Hayes
have each carried seventeen States
beyond all doubt, but the major
tiles for Tilden in the States which
he has carried are the more deci-
sive. The following is the table
referred to:
