OCTOBER ELECTION.

The first important State election
this fall was held last Tuesday in
Ohio and Iowa. Last year the Re-
publicans carried Ohio by a small ma
jority after hard contest. Since then
the State affairs has been very great
ly changed by the great rail road
strike and the Presidents course tow
ard the South. AS a result no less
than FIVE state tickets were in the
field representing as many different
organizations. Both tho old parties
were thus broken by diversions from
their rank, and the republicans fatal
ly, as the democrats now carry the
state by probably 10000 majority
The democrats have also carried the
legisture which enables them to elect
a U. S. Senator. In Iowa, however,
the republicans MAINTAIN their ascend
ancy by a round 10000 majority. The
eyes Of the politicians are now turned
toward Pennsylvania, which votes
early in November, and the demo
Gratis are confidently expecting that
stronghold Of republicanism to be bat
tered down. There is little. or no
political excitement this year. The
republican workers say their hands
are tied ty the new civil service pol
icy which makes easy work for the
democrats. In Ohio. as proof Of the
popular Indifference, it is said the to-
tai vote is one hundred thousand less
than last year.

SURRENDER OF JOSEPH.

No news could be more welcome to
the country than the despatch Of Gen.
Miles, on the 9Th of October, announ-
cling that after a severe engagement,
keeping his troops under fire three
days, the band of Nez Perces Indians
under Chief Joseph, made final sur
render and are now in his hands as
prisoners. The war with the Nez
Perces began last June. On the 18th
Of that month they killed twenty
nine settlers of Montana. Our troops
have suffered the severest hardships
in pursuing the willy foe and many
officers and men have been killed in
various engagements. We cannot
fully estimate the courage and spirit
displayed by our troops in their war
fare in that mountainous region
against foe so adroit and daring as
the Indians.
The serious question for the Gov.
eminent now is how } dispose of the
captured hostiles. Whether by i'm

In Fritztown, Pa, lives a man who
is insensbIe to the pain which usu-
ally attends the sting Of bees, wasps
and hornets. He can take the honey
from the beehiyes without either stu.
pefying or destroying the bees. He
destroys all the hornets and yellow
Jackets nests that he can find, and,
although frequently covered by the
insects which have alighted upon him
in swarms, he has never been known
to finch. On getting hold of a horn
cts nest he empties it by shaking the
hornets out OF the aperture.

URAND JURY REPORT.
GRAND Jury Room.
September Term, 1877.


To the Honorable, the Jndges Of the CIrcp'
Court for Frederick County, .Mryland
The Grand Jury respectfully report that
that in accordance with law they have Wis
| tied the Almshousc and Jail
On our visit to the Almshousc we were
cordially received by the keeper and his
lady and were shown through the building
and found it in Il clean and comfortable
condition. The inmates speak in the high
est terms Of their kind treasm at the In
stituton Since tie visit of the last Grand
Jury there has been erected on the grounds
two very secure enclosures for the insane,
where they may have exercise and air
At the Jail we were in a like manner re.
ccived by the sheriff and his deputies and
found it in perfect order, and the prisoners
properly cared fol.
By invitation we visited the Institution
for the Deaf and Dumb, where we were
courteously received by the principal, Prof.
Ety. and inv tied by him to look through
the buildings and witness the proficiency
of The scholars. We cannot permit this
opportunity to pass without expressing our
qualification at the manner in which that
Institution is managed and the marked sue

Is certainly well repaid in the investment
it has made.
We further report, that, rs directed by
this Honorable Court inquiry has been
made in reference to the issuing of licenses
after date, required by law. The difficulty
is that all the licenses are dated back to the
first of May, although they may have been
issued in September, which we are inform
oil has been the UNMARRIED custom for a long
period. 1t is respectfully recommend that
hereafter the licenses be issued bearing the
date of its issue, the applicants being nj
lowed thirty days from the first day of
May to procure it; providing the law per-
NIT such course if not that statute be
erected to that effect at the next session of
the Legislature.
All matters brought to the attention of
the Grand Jury have received due consid.
Grafton, and in such cases rs our judgment
violations of law require it presentmeEts
and indictments have been brought into
this Honorable Court, and having compile
ted our duties we now ask to be discharged
from further attendance at this term.

Probably it might be well for me
to give a brief description of this
place, as it is not generally known
This town is on the turnpike, about
midway between Fairmont and Nor
gantown. 1t lies principally on the
east side, on beautiful lawn. A
small stream winds its way through
the town, thus affording an abundance
of water for the inhabitants thereof.
AS the traveller is going from Fair
mont to Morgantown, in passing
around short curve in the road, this
grand cluster of houses is brought to
his view. He is astonished to find
himself in the midst of town so un-
expectedly. But such is life. There
has been some little interruption in
our town recently, The board of
education Of grant district granted
the privilege of free school being
taught in the church, providing the
trustees of the church were willing
(Thus cutting off another sub-dis-
trict in honor of our town. Without
consulting majority of the trustees,
a young man opened the school. The
trustees had meeting and advised
no more scool at present Arnett, the
teacher there, had made eighty per
cent of attendance of the district en-
rollment during the past three weeks.
The late amendment to the school law,
requiring thirty-fve per cent the first
month, has aroused the teachers and
set them to work.
Rev. WATSON has just closed a pro-
tracted meeting at Point Pleasant.
A good meeting, but only one con-
version.
Hoping that your readers will not
forget our new town, that if any one
should pass it they will not fail to see
1t in its grandeur 4.
