friends not to put faith IN the early tele-
grams from Ohio. We do not believe
them correct by any means, aud we
should not be surprised if they purposely
foreshadowed the defeat of the Demo-
Gratis to strengthen the Republican back
bones in Pennsylvania, New York and
Massachusetts. 1t is an easy matter to
control the telegraph, and it has so often
been done by the Republican party that
it is wiser to await further information
than to credit dispa saes that are shown
on their face to be unreliable.
The Greenback vote in Ohio, it is
stated, will run up to 10000 or $4,000 ;
and most of il is from the Democratic
party. In Iowa the Republican vote
is greatly reduced by accessions to the
Greenbacker.
The great struggle was over the cleo
ton of members of Congress. These
four States have forty-five representatives
in the House. In the present Congress
Ohio has twelve Republicans and eight
Democrats, Indiana has nine Republi-
cans and four Democrats, Iowa has nine
Republicans and West Virginia three
Democrats.
From later appearances the Den oc ats
have probably gained two meml sn in
Ohio, two in Indiana, and carries, he
doubtful district in West Virginia.

No REPUBLICAN TICKET.-The great
mass Of the Republican party in this
county favor the policy Of running no
ticket at all. They say that to run a
ticket in this county, where the great
bulk Of the voters reside, is to destroy the
effort Of abandoning ticket in the State.
and to strengthen rather than weaken the
Democratic party-it breaks the line of
action and will create dissension in their
own ranks, where defeat awaits them
any way. Nobody asks for action in the
formation Of ticket except two or three
ambitious men who want to see their
names III the paperS as candidates, and
care very little about even their own
election. There are a few others, though,
who want to be appointed U. $. supervi-
sors, and hope to be paid for holding
ticket, &c.
There is no doubt that Mr.. Gallagher
drew out all the votes that could be cot
to the polls by the Republicans in this
city. And now the great mass of those
who voted for him are angered and de-
clare they will not vote hence the at
temp to nominate a legislative ticket last
Saturday was complete farce. The
men that do the voting at the primaries
are the men that nominated and voted
for Gallagher, and they did not put in an
appearance. To make "A ticket now.
therefore, is only to show greater weak
ness than ever.

An Extraordinary Funeral.

An extraordinary funeral occurred at
Mankato, Mimi, last week. The diph-
iberia broke out in the family of Samuel
Randall, and carried OIL four children
within tour days. The bodies of two
other children, who had died some time
previously and had been buried in an old
cemetery, were disinterred, and lhe six
little collins, carried to the graveyard at
the same time, afforded sad and un-
usual spectacle.

House BUILDING is now conducted
very rapidly by experienced builders, and
with great profit. Few of our people are
aware of the fact that from seventy to
eighty houses have been built in the sec
ton of our city between Seventh street
and Market and the Brandywine during
the past season, notwithstanding the
hard times. Yet this is the fact. A
larger number, We suppose, have been
erected in the western section of the city.

TIE ORPHANS COURT AND Court

THE ORPHANS COURT AND CoURT
OF CHANCERY's LATE CLERK IRRE-
sPoNsIBLE.-During the whole term of
the late Clerk of the Court of Chancery
and Orphans Court, we are told, by good
authority, that the Court was without
security for the trust reposed in
the Clerk. Owing to carelessness on the
part of the Court, the bonds of the late
Clerk, c. NJ. Vandever, were never en-
tered up. He left the State with the
money in his pocket. We are the losers
to the extent of $50, for work done the
money being paid into the late Clerks
hands, his securities being irresponsible
because of the bonds not being entered
mp. How many others are losers by this
carelessness of the Court, we do not
know.

MED the clicking of the latch of the door
winch had so petrified Dora.
When the young lady returned, the
expression of her cousins features was SO
nightly altered that she exclaimed
Why, my darling girl, do think you
wanted to leave us because you thought
the house was haunted"
Per-perhaps-yes," faltered Dora.
wlstfully gazing at her.
You poor little darling" murmured
Penelope, in voice of deep compassion,
and she took Dora's unresistins hand in
hers; why would you not tell me ?
Don't you know, Dora" and a smile
played on her lips, "that we ought to
love each other very dearly? We are
both going to marry Walter Cary, and
be the closest sort of cousins"
: Are there two Walter Cary?" eiacu-
lated Dora.
What" cried Penelope her counter
ance slowly crimsoning as the situation
bust upon her; F" did you-imagine-"
She never completed the sentence, but
snatching up the poor, tired little orphan
to her bosom, strained her there, and
kissed her fearful, smiling face with
kisses, which were fully returned.
But Dora never revealed the whole of
her terrible mistake.
