Regarding the report that the Americans
would be allowed to exhibit at the Paris Exhibition with
out the intervention Of commission, the Paris corre-
spondent Of the NcwYork Associated Press tecgraps

TIE ASSEMBLY REPUBLICAN.

STATE TIcKET-A REPUBLICAN GAIN IN TIE
sFSArE-THE ASSEMBLY APPARENTLY REPUBLl-
CAN BY A SMALL MAJORITY.
The Republican majority in the Senate is increased
bv the election of Nathaniel c. Marvin over Senator
Lamont in the XXIIId District. The contest was
very close and the result not definitely known
until Yesterday. MIR. Marvin's exact majority was
275. This gives the Republicans nineteen Senators
and the Democrats, twelve, with one Independent
Mr GUbel The latter is classed by some papers as
a Republican making the Republican total twenty :;
hut Mr. GgbeI insists on being counted an In
dependent. Democrats are still claiming the cleo
ton Of Lewis : Payne over l.. II. Sanborn. the Re
rr,b,,an candidate, IN the Niagara District, hut no
returns have been received which verify this claim.
In the Assembly the Republicans seem 10 have
gained two over the total number assigned them IN
Yesterdays TRIBUNE, thus giving them sixty-Six
votes. counting in Elias Mapcs, the Work
ingmen's candidate in Rochester who was
elected by Republican votes. This would
leave the Democrats with 90 votes counting in the
Greenback Democrat from Chemung. The Repub-
hcans have elected Jackson Valentine over Marion
Conklin in the Ist District Of Wayne County,
and both members in Washington County.
Fordham Norris Anti -Tammany Democrat,
is now declared elected over A. II. Purdy,
Tammany Democrat, in the Ist District Of West
chester, by seventeen votes. An unusual number of
close contests have taken place, majority of less
than twenty-five having decided a considerable
number of districts. The majority Of A. NJ. Suydam,
Republican, in tho With District of Kings was
given yesterday at 90. 1t seems now that the Dem
ocrats claim the election Of John Douglas by several
hundred votes. If the Canvassing Board should re-
fuse Suydam a certificate, this would reduce the Re
publican list to 60 votes. barely sufficient major
ity to pass a bill in the House.

Mother ShiptOn's Prophecies

The following remarkable prophecy Ina;
 been going the rounds of the press in {
 mutilated form for some time past. We
 here reproduce it complete, as published
 in the Belfast, Ireland, Weekly News o l November 3. AS all the events herein pre-
 dicted except the last and most i'm mportant
 have already come to pass we had better begin to make our peace with all mankind preparatory to shuff1ing off this mortal coil, or having it shuffled off for us, in 1881: Carriages without horses shall go,
 And accident fill the world with woe; Primrose Hill in London shall be,
 And in its center Bishops See;
 Around the world thoughts shall fly
 In the twinkling of an eve;
 Water shall yet more wonders do
 How strange, yet shall be true The world upside down shall be,
 And gold be found at the root of tree; Through hills men shall ride,
 And no horse or ass be by their side; Under W iter men shall walk,
 Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk; In me alr men shall be seen
 In white, in black and in green; A great man shall come and go; Three times shall lovely France Be led to play a bloody dance; Before her people shall be free Three tyrant rulers shall she see; Three rulers in succession sec, Each sprnging from different dynasty; Then shall the worSer fight be done, England ard France shall be as one; The British olive next shall twinc In marriage with German vine; Men shall walk over rivers and und'r rivers; Iron ill the water shall float As easy as a wooden boat; Gold shal. he found and shown In a land that's not now known; Fire and water shall more wonders do; England shall at last admit Jew; The Jew that was held in scorn, Shall of a Christian be born and born; A house of glass shall come to pass In England, but alas! War will follow with the work, In the land of the Pagan and Turk; And State aud State in fierce strife Will seek each others life; But when the North shall divide the South An eagle shall build in the lions mouth; Taxes for blood and for war Will come to every door; All England's sons that blow the land Shall be seen book in hand; Learning shall so ebb and flow The poor shall most wisdom know; Waters shall flow where corn shall grow; Corn shall grow where water doth flow; Houses shall appear in the wales below, And covered by hail and snow. The world then to an end shall come In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.
 These prophecies, which require no ex- planation, were found recently in the Bri- ish museum, written in an old manuscript dated A. D. 14fS.

of his party had been killed or
 wounded, when his provisions and ammunition were nearly ex-
 hausted, when he himself had
 been wounded and the roof burned off the building he was in, Crabbe surrendered, upon the most defi- nite and emphatic assurances that he and his party should he treat ed as prisoners of war. Within twelve hours every man of them was corpse on the ground outside the town and the hogs were de- vouring their unburied bodies. A party came across the line into the United States, and butchered in their beds the two sick men left by Crabbe, and who had never been in Sonora at all.
 While Crabbe was beseiged in CabOrca a party of about twenty men started from Tucson torelieve him. Among them were John G. Capron, now of San Diego; Gran. Oury, now a prominent lawyer of Florence; J. M. Williams, now mining at Castle Dome; Col. Chas. w. Tozer, now at Tucson; George Madison, Hart and Woods. They reached Caborca just before Crabbe surrendered, but could not com- municate with him in time to enable him to fight his way out and effect a junction with them; nor could they make their way to him. They were surrounded by sWarms of Mexicans and had to fight their entire way back to the Americanline. Every water hole along the route was guarded and they had to fight for water. They killed a mule and by filling it's entrails with water managed to carry enough to enable them to avoid some of the worst watering places to get at.
 After that Nicaragua absorbed the fillibustering element of Cali fornia and Sonora got rest.
