THE TELEPHONE AT THE BROOKLYN ACADEMY.
The telephone surprised and charmed the large au.

March had ceased TO DO discordant cle-

tune. The experiment was complete
success. This is especially remarkable because tho
Brooklyn Academy Is much larger than steinway Hail,
while It is acouscay INFERIOR yet tho Same melodies

strong last evening. Each air was heard

lie New York the result is doubtful, with the
latest reports favorng the Democratic ticket.
No report has been received in regard to the
Legislature. New jersey is undoubtedly Dem
ocratic. McClellans majority is variously
stated. The Democrats probably have a ma
jority in the Legslatursi though this is not Ger
tain. Pennsylvania is Democratic by 10000.
Wisconsin is extremely close, but the Re-
publicans have probably carried it, Minnesota
and Kansas are Republ ian by the usual ma
jorities. In Maryland. Virginia and Mississ-
ippi there was practically no contest, and the
Democratic majorites are overwhelming. No

SPRINGFIELD, Nov. 6.-The election in the

pretty full vote and resulted 10 large gains for

about 5000 majority. Rice carries every county
while daston had majority IN all but one two

sh re, 1875 for Rice against 1871 in 1878. Rerk

where CASTOR had Is majority two years ago.
Judging from the gains for Rice reported thus
far In Worcester CO unity and further east, his
