The "congratulatory order" is the
order Of the day, now that the riots
have died out. Hartranft will issue his

with whole hides from the Pittsburg
roundhouse, and the gallant Sixty-ffth
New York will also be felictated over
their thrift in trading Off State arms for
clothes, at Buffalo, while Joseph and
Howard have both done the correct
thing in the same line out West.

While the country, congress and the

subject of ineligible electors, it may be of
interest to recall bit of Vermont history
for Vermont has made a record on this

duty, under the constitution, devolved on
the senate and house in joint assembly. On

the session. governor having been elect
ed the previous day, after two Intellectual
ballotings for lieutenant governor, the
president -ex Governor Carlos Coolidge
announced that on each of the ballots, votes
we're cast for persons constitutionally inc

thereupon, introduced declaring, that all
votess "ncluding those for persons consti-
tutionaliy ineligible TO the offices for
(which they are voted for, be counted,
and that majority of all votes cast, be
necessary for an election" By unani-

General Directions for Detecting Counterfeit
From the Genuine.
Observe, first, the general appearance of
the bill, as far as engraving aud paper is
concerned. The bad bills are almost sure
to show inferior work upon inferior paper.
They are apt to appear coarse and scratchy.
Examine the lines of the geometrical lathe
work with view to discover want of con-
tnuity and eyenness Notice the shading
of the letters. In poor bills the lines are
apt to be crooked. Hold the notes up TO
the light, for the purpose of seeing If bills
have not been raised by FASTING, or by the
use of acids. Signatures are now quite
frequently printed or engraved. Little re-
lance is now placed upon signatures as a
means of Identifying the genuineness of a
national bank note. No one not in the

Satisfied, if the Deacon's Daughter
Was.

There was wedding in this city last
Thursday night which is worth mentioning.
Some months ago q man came from New
Orleans 10 this city and claimed his wife,
one Sophia Duncan, from whom he had
been separated for nearly 90 years. His
wife refused to own him, in fact re-
pulsed him, and claimed the right to live
in peace with her two children, who are
grown to mature age, and with whom she
is living happily. The rejected husband,
who had discarded his wife many years
before for the sake Of the company OF an
other woman, sought consolation in the So
ciety of another. He paid court to the
daughter Of the deacon of the West Kan
sas Baptist church, and on last Thursday
night married her. The angular part Of
the affair is this When the first wife of
Duncan heard that her former husband
was about to be married she rejoiced ex-
cecdipgly, and while she did not go to the
wedding, she sent to congratulate her sue
cessor IN the affections of the cratic
George. Yesterday morning George, the
rejected, visited his ancient wife to boast
of his good fortune. He rejolced in the
possession of a young wife, well-furnish-
ed home, and a two-story residence in the
fashionable part of the town"-all &C.
CURED by marriage. The old lady turned
up her nosc at her former spouse, remark
ing coolly that she was satisfied, provided
the deacon's daughter was.

The president INDUCED in his usual Sun
day talk, and remarked that he was little
uncertain about the result of the presiden-
tial election as he could not forcsee what
disposition would be made of Louisianai
that her vote was rejected four years ago,
and it might be now. Whether this was
said to revive the dropping spirits of the
democracy we cannot say; but, If so, fear
ing that they would revive too much, he
proceeds to remark, that this will not give
them the whole pie, for Tilden, not having
received the vote of q majority OF the
whole number OF electors appointed, would
not be elected. The house must elect a
president, and the senate vice president,
so that Tilden would be president, and
Wheeler vice president. The president,
certainly, was very thoughtful to solve this
constitutional question.
