In rural district of Forfarshire young
ploughman once went courting on Sat
urday night. In vain he racked his brain
for some interesting topic; he could call
up no subject suitable for the occasion
not one sentence could he utter, and for
two long hours he sat in despair The
girl herself was equally silent; she had no
doubt remembered the teaching of the old
Scotch song, "Man maun be the first to
speak," and she--sat patiently regarding
him with demure surprise. At last, John
suddenly exclaimed, "Jenny, there's a
feather on year apron~ wadna wonder
ed if there had been twa," replied Jenny,
"for I've been sittin' aside a goose a nicht."

chandler,s End an Enviable One.


Who shall say that this faithful public
servant was not happy in his death? He
was in full possession of his ripe faculties.
He had signalized his return to the Senate
by brief speech, in trying moment,
which went straight to the patriotic heart
of the country. He had just gone through
a political campaign of great Importance
to the future of the republic, and his
speeches had exhibited great mental vigor.
He had Just delivered speech of more
than usual energy. He had been solicited
for this work from one end of the land to
the other. Not before had he stood higher
in the esteem of his countrymen. he died
without that decay OF body and mind
which in old age makes men burdens to
themselves and their friends. He escaped
that course of comment on waning powers
which is the custom in this country. he
ESCAPED all the dreadful anticipations of
the pain of death, and OF the horrors OF
the grave, which, in spite of all that men
may believe beyond, is terror
He escaped the pain and dread OF I'm
gering death. He escaped the attilcuon
of his family and near friend watching
and waiting from day to day, and night
to night, knowing that death is inevitable,
and at last hearing the rattle in the throat
as the secretions which there is no longer
strength to throw off stop the breath.
He died in peace, with none of death 8
terrors to himself, and no prolonged agony
of expectation to his family. 1t Is ap-
pointed unto man to die, and fortunate
are thew who can thus pass away in peace.
Still more fortunate are they who can leave
behind such record OF patriotic WORK,
and such a monument in the hearts of the
patriotic people.

PENNSYLVANIA
Estimotes OF the Result To-day.


PHILADELPHIA, November 2.-Under the
law of Pennsylvania there can be no mass
meetings or other political demonstrations
of popular character after the Saturday
preceding an election. The campaign,
therefore, closed last night, and to-day the
leaders of both parties are making up their
estimates. There are four candidates for
Treasurer, Butler Republican,, Barr
Richardson (Prohibitionist). The cam
paign has been usually quiet, very little
speaking having been done. But some
thing in the nature of still hunt has been
pretty vigorously kept up from the head
quarters of the Democratic State Com
mittee in Pittsburgh.
Both sides, as usual, are expecting
victory, or rather, that is what they tell
the public. The vote will be light, as
there is nothing to call it out, except in
two or three localities, where there has
been an exciting contest over local offices.
Hoyts (Rep) majority over Dill (Dem)
in 1873 was %, 353. According to the Re-
publican estimate, Buffers majority over
Barr this year will be 1890, while &C.
cording to the Democratic estimate. Bars
majority over Butler will be 300. Mr..
Barr's individual estimate claims for him
majority of some Is, 900 outside of PhiIa-
delphia, and, conceding that he will be
beaten in the city 5000 or 1900, he ex-
poets to be elected by 5000 or 1000.
The most experienced political observers,
however, agree that the Republicans are
likely to carry the State by not less than
Is, 600 majority, and any less majority
would be surprise all around.
Last night, when Senator Wallace was
speaking in this city, he shouted out in
ringing tones, mo smirched man can lead
the Democracy in this next Presidential
campaign, Correctness, clean hands and
a spotless record will characterize the next
leader, whether it be Bayard, the fearless
and pure, over the advocate of home-rule
and the implacable enemy of the doctrine
of CHsarism as illustrated in the third
term, or Hancock, the soldier, the Penn
sylvanian; or Mcclellan" And 80 he
went on, naming and characterizing half
Presidential caairr but studiously omit
sion was so marked that the name
was indeed Conspicuous by Its
absence" and as there were not a few of
SIr. Randall's men in the audience, sever
al questions were shouted, "How about
Tilden" To these questions, though
they stopped him from proceeding three
different times, the Senator apparently
took no notice, but went straight on. The
course of Senator Wallace is considered as
an open declaration of war against Tilden
by the man who controls the Democratic
organization in this State, and as, more
over, remuneration of his previously en-
tertained view that Tilden can only be
beaten in the National Convention by
giving Western man the first place on
the ticket.

ADVANCE in Svest-bonnd Freight.

A new freight tariff on west-bound
freight went into effect yesterday on the
p. w. & KY. road, by which nails and
other fourth.class freight in car load lots
were raised from III cents TO 20 cents to
Chicago; % cents to st. Louis instead Of
90; Is cents to Cincinnati instead of 124i
II to Columbus instead of 10; 1870 In
dianapolis instead Of 10; 10 TO Toledo in
stead of l2l; and 10 to Detroit instead
of 123.
There is no change in the schedule tc
points beyound the Mississippi river.
At the Baltimore and Ohio depot they
had not received the new schedule, and
consequently were billing freight at the
old rates.
About the tenth of this month change
of schedule in East-bound freight will g
into effect, involving an advanceof abou
three cents per hundred pounds on fourth
class freight.
A new feature of the change in th'
schedule is provision that all car LOAF
lots finals must embrace 240kegs instead
of 200 as formerly. This change is, how
ever, more on paper than in reality, as TO
some time past cars have been loaded
with $50 kegs.

The States voting to-day are Massachu-
sets, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Mime
sofa, Nebraska, Mississippi and Wisconsin.
In the first named they elect Governor
and other State officials and members ofthe
Legislature; in Connecticut they elect
members of the lower branch of the Legis-
lature and one half the Senate; New York
elects Governor and State officials, q
Legislature, and Congressman in the

publican, who died on election night last
year. New Jersey elects Legislature.
The present Legislature is Republican, IN
the Senate by IL to 10, and in the House
nv s. to %. Pennsylvania elects only one
State officer, Treasurer, and the canvass
has therefore been very quiet in that State.
Maryland elects a Governor and other
State officials aud Legislature. Virginia
elects Legislature and votes on the Nc
Collough debt-proposition, one party ta-
voring its terms, which are satisfactory to
the creditors of the State, and the other
going in for forcible adjustment The
Legislature now is Democratic by 2S to 8
in the Senate, and 102 to 80 Republicans
and independently in the House. Ne
braska elects a Judge of the Supreme
Court and regents of the State University.
Wisconsin elects Governor and other
State officials and Legislature.
Minnesota elects the same Off
cials. Mississippi elects about one
half the State Senate and a full
House of Representatives, and the
people will vote upon constitutional
amendment securing BIENNIAL sessions OF
the legislature, and changing the time of
holding elections from the odd to the even
years.
The numerical strength of parties in
these various States as shown by their last
general elections is as follows:
