LONDON, May 9.-Thc Porte has ordered
the partial evacuation of Shumlu in considcra-
ton of the removal of the Russian headquarters
to 81. George. The evacuation Of the fortress
and the withdrawal of the Russians nre believed
to depend upon the withdrawal OF the British

A Clear Democratic Legislative Majority
Senator Voorhees, Will be Returned
Beyond Doubt.
A Majority of Ten on Joint Ballot Certain
and Probably Gratifying
Reports Prom all Parts of
the State.
INDIANA.

SENTINEL OFFICE, 8 a. m, Oct. 1O.-The
democratic state ticket has been undoubted-
ly elected by 1900 majority.
The democrats will have big
working majority in the hall
of representatives, and majority of two (2)
in the senate, which insures the re-
turn of the Hon. Daniel w. Voor
hees to the United States senate.
The most gratifying features of
the election are the enormous democratic
gains in previous republican strongholds
The democrats gain two representatives in
Vigo county, one representative in Lake, one
representative in Parke and Montgomery,
one representative in Monroe, one represent
ative in Lawrence, one representative in
Boone, one representative in Ripley, Decatur
and Rush, one representative in Hamilton
and Upton, one representative in Switzer-
land and Ohio, one representative in Morgan
and one representative in White and Jasper;
total gain, H.
The democrats also gain one senator in
Lake and Porter; one senator in Newton,
Jasper, Benton and White; one senator in
Parke and Vermilion, and one senator in
Grant, Blackford and jay; total gain, A.
The democrats probably lose four repre-
sentatives in Cass, Floyd and Clark counties
We have certainly gained four congress
men, as follows: Judge New, of the
Fourth district, who represented it
in 1874, Captain Myers, in the Sixth
district who has defeated General Grose,
Dr. De La Matyr. of the Seventh district,
who will have at least 400 majority. Hos
tettler, the honest farmer of the Eighth dis
trIct, who has defeated Morton G. Hunter,
the advocate of the national banks. Orth,
of the Ninth disdrict, is no doubt
defeated, which will make gain of five
congressman. Orth claims 24 majority
in his district outside of Boone
county which mas not at a. m.
reported on congressman.
The democrats have certainly gained the
representative in Boone county, which indi-
Gates Orth's certain defeat.
Heilman, in the First district, has de-
feated Garvin (democrat) by a small
majority, the first time a republi-
can congressman has ever succeeded in
carrying that district. Money did not
do it. Judge Holman, the red
watch dog of the treasury" is
defeated by General Tom Browne by about
1000 majority in the Fifth district

COLUMBUS Oct. 9.-The following are the
congressman elected: Butterworth, Young,
Mcmahon, Kiefer, Lefevre, Hill, Hurd, Fin
ley, Converse, Ewing Dickey, Neal, Ather-
ton, Geddes, Mckinley, Monroe, Updegraff,
Garfield and Townsend. The result IN the
Thirteenth district is in doubt. The repub-
licans claim Van Voorhees, election, while
the democrats claim Warmers. There are
ten democrats and nine republicans. The
republicans claim the state by from 5000 to
10000. while the democrats concede 5000.
CINCINNATI, Oct. The Ohio delegation
in the next congress will probably stand as
follows: First district, Butterworth, repub-
lican; Second, Young, republican; Third,

lican; Fifth, Lefevre, democrat; Sixth, Hill,
democrat; Seventh, Hurd, democrat; Eighth,

"Rock. ably, baby, in the tree top,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock:
When the oough breaks the cradle will fall,
Down tumbles baby and cradle and all"
Rock-a-by, baby, the meadows in bloom,
Laugh at the sunbeams that dance IN the

Echo the words with your baby tune,
Coo at the sunshine and flowers of June.
Rock-a-by, baby; as softly it swings
Over thy cradle the mother love sings;
BroOding or cooling at even or dawn,
What will II do when the mo her is gomez
Rock a-by, baby; so cloudless the skies.
Blue as the depths of your own laughing eyes;
Sweet is the lullaby over your nest,
That tenderly sings little baby to rest.
Rock-a-by, baby; the blue eyes VIII dream
Sweetest when mammals eyes over them
beam;
Never again will the world seem so fair
Sleep, little baby-there are clouds in the art
Rock-a-by, baby; the blue eyes will burn
And ache with that your manhood will learn;
Swiftly the years come with sorrow and care,
With burdens the wee dimpled shoulders must
bear.
Rock ABLY. baby; there's coming a daE
Whose sorrows a mothers Ii ps can ( kiss away,
Days when its song shall be changed to
moan,
Crosses that baby must bear all alone.
Rock-a-by, baby; the meadows in bloom,
May never the frost pail the beauty in bloom;
Be thy world ever bright, as to-day it Is seen,
Rock ABBY, baby, "thy cradle is green

Through ways of pleasantness, then may
live
A peaceful life and peacefully may die;
And Joy shall surely through these channels
flow,
If God shall bless me So"

SO ends my prayer. If / at last may bend
Before thee, loved one, who art more to me
Than all that life holds dear, that hour shall
end
All, save the dearest JOY that man may know,
If God shall bless me so.
We walk through life in devious ways; no
light
Illumes the distant futures shadowy mist;
But, like some phantom of the lonely night,
Come yearning thoughts my soul can not
resist:
long TO share the joys my faneies know.

already come to hand that the hon crop
OF 1873 will prove as grsa. a failure as
thai q last year. \ gentleman named
Latter. the representative of an exten.
slve hop growing and dealing firm Of
London, has recently been visiting the
hop yards in the vicinity OF Sacramen-
TO, as he has those Of other sections
and he reports almost a general failure
OF the crop. 1t is very poor in Eng
land, and in Wisconsin worse yet. The
California crop Is better than that of
either OF the sections mentioned. but
even ours is far below the average.
There are exceptions however. lie
found the growing crops of 4. Menke,
who has thirty-six acres in on the bot
tom land in Brighton Township. to be
hrst class III every respect. and as the
picking season will begin within two
weeks there is every probability that
the hops will turn out as they premise.
From Oregon the reports are meaere,
last years crop there was a miserable
failure. Good hops are apt to bring
twenty cents or more per pound, which
would leave the grower handsome
profit.
