New York Elections.

New York, Nov. 12.-Charles e.
Smith, of the Albany Evening
Journal, tclegraphcd that the oilic-
ial returns now coming in show
small but almost uniform rcpub-
lican gains. With the changes thus
far recorded our footings give Hos
kins 957. Carr loses considerably
i'll Monroe county, butgains enough
elsewhere to make up. Wendcll's
net gains thus far over his cstimat-
ed majority yesterday are about
300. Both appear to be safe by
about 1000.
The Sun has received official re-
turns from fifty of the sixty coun-
tics in the state. A close compare
son between these and unofficial re-
turns from the other ten counties
indicates that Hoskins, candidate
for lieutenant governor, has defeat
ed Clarkson N. Potter by about
100 majority; that Carr, republi-
can candidate for secretary of state
is elected by nearly the same ma
jority; that Wadsworth, republican
candidate for controller, will have
nm increased majority over that Of
Hoskins, and that Ward and Wen
dell, republicans, are elected as ut
torncy general and treasurer. The
majority for lloratio Seymour, Jr,
democratic candidate for engineer
and surveyor, will be towards 49,
600. John Kelley's vote is increas-
cd over previous estimates and will
reach $4,000.

The Po..-Beilum bonds.
Nnshvllle American.


Senator Bailey alluded In his
speech Wednesday evening TO a fact
that has not been before mentioned,
and which is yet true. While de-
elaring that he was a most earnest
and determined opponent of the
Brownlow Govemment-and we
happen TO know that no man I'm the
State fought ii more ably or more
earnestly at every point in pOlitics
and in the courts, having himself
instituted and carried on one of the
franchise suits which was the enter
ing wedge to the final break-he
was ready to do the Justice to say
that large part of these bonds
were issued i'm obedience TO de-
mands of disfranchised citizens Of
the State. He then sketched tho
causes which led to their issue. The
railroads were bankrupt, cross-ties
rotted, bridges burned or broken
down, rails worn out, rolling stock
gone, and the produce, the com-
merce of the State, clamOrOus for
carriage. Under these circumstan-
css, bonds were issued to provide
transportation. He granted that
there had been corruption and mis-
use of funds, especially, perhaps, as
to some new roads, but the great
bulk of the bonds were issued for
these purposes, and the proceeds so
used.
These are facts, and established
and well known facts. AS TO all
these, except, perhaps, in the case
Of the Mineral Home road, and as
to a few others, the State has de-
rived some benefit from them In re-
pairing old roads and building new
ones. 1t will hardly be pretended
that as to any considerable portion
of these bonds, less than 30 per cent.
of the face value was used IN repair
and construction. As to the old
roads, aid was absolutely essential
to save railway property from COM
plete destruction and To give pro-
duce a way to market. If they had
been left as they were, the people
would have been helpless In their
struggle TO get on their feet after
the war. There are now not more
than two and half millions of these
bonds outstanding.
That there was some corruption
and that undue influences were
used in some cases is true, but there
is nothing in the testimony, taken
by the two investigating commit
teeJ, to invalidate any considerable
number or to vitiate the whole of
these bonds. II the simple princi-
pie that he who seeks To avoid "a
note for fraud must pay back what
he actually received for it were ap-
piled, 1t would compel the State to
pay far larger amount than IL will
have to pay.
These are simple facts, boldly de-
clared by a man who will not nan.
der to any prejudice no matter how
strong or popular il Is, and who will
do justice as he sees II 90 friend or
foe.

thorough sanitation that we must
inaugurate in November, or give up
altogether. For Gods sake let us
get out of the rut OF charity. let
us return TO the methods Of selfhelp
and self-reliance that are the staples
Of every thorough-golng and inde-.
pendent community. Let US try
and 90 through this crisis with our
dignity unimpaired Let us try
and make what little money We
have, with what our citizens and
the State will give, cariyus through
until frost comes and our refugees
return. If we do this, we shall gain
upon the confidence Of the nation aa
we have never done before wo
shall have taken one step I'm the dl-
rection of re-estabiishing our inde-
pendence as a community, and we
shall have made an immense gain
In re-establishing our seif-esteem.
Our condition to-day Is, all things
considered, a most encouraging one.
Our necessities are no greater than
we can presently meet, and the
prospect Is fair for our passing the
summer (if our own people and the
State do their duty by us) without
occasion for an appeal for one dollar
or for any provisions beyond the
ten thousand rati0ns already so
kindly and generously contributed
by the general government. We
urge again, let us, as becomes s.
proud-spirited people, labor TO MAIN
tain an attitude of selfhelp. Let
us, for once, be independent in a
great emergency.

/ To
do not love thee, yet at midnight oft,
When slumber wraps me in a close EN-.
brace,
From the mystic realm of dreams, with foot
fall soft,
A vision steals with thy familiar face,
1 donot love thee, yet the stars Of Heaven
Are not 50 bright as thy dark eyes 70 me.
There is no spell of magic to them given,
That thrills my heart as it is thrilled by
thee.
1 do not love thee, yet when gentle Eve
Has shut his wings and dews begin to
weep,
I feel my throbbing bosom swell and heave
With prison dsigh to guard thy hours Of
sleep -
To weave mystic spell around thee there
A spirit wreath that thine shall ever keep;
To lay my hand aiAidFh ydark lrown hair,
And bless thee, Friend, in thy unguarded
sleep.
On, could l catch bird at set of sun,
Whose latest song was heard and loved by
thee.
Or had l but a flower which thou hadst
How dear, how precious It would be to me.
When thou art gone murmur DER and DER
Thy every word until they seem divine;
And my weak fainting spirit burns to soar
Into the glorious realm of thought with
thine.
Fain would it catch upon its dropping wing
From thy high intellect gleam of light;
bring
A song less sad tlaen that it sings tonight.
Thy spirit sways my soul when thou art
near,
As Luna sways the raging of the sea
And in my bosom thoughts so preclous stir
That would call them love, If that could
be.
Let Fate do what she will, she may decree
That we on realms of earth no more may
meet;
But she cannot rob me of thy memory,
Or make my dreams of vanished joys less
sweet.
The thousand birds and dews and tender
flowers
That rob old earth of half its misery,
Bring back to me some cherished bygone
hours
That have passed so pleasantly with thee.

And the Greatest OF all ~ Charity.
Memphis Ledger.

AASAAhhAa AscAktNs
The various secret organizations
of this city, be it to their credit,
have been prompt in calling their
relief boards into existence, and act
ing with a zeal which shows to the
world their great secret charity.
The MasOns are at work in relieV-
ing the sick and needy. The Odd
Fellows and the Ancient Order Of
Workingmen are at work also, but
to the knights of Honor the credit
belongs of being first in the field,
for, when the alarm was given Of
the enemy in our midst, their seve-
raj lodges appointed relief commit
tees, turning over what funds they
had on hand, bidding them 90 for
ward and attend to the sick and
needy of their order. These several
committees met in Joint session and
consolidated into a Relief Board,
and by ballot elected James b. Cook
as President, w. /. Berlin, Vice
President, ID. +. Goodyear, Treas
urer, and A. II. MeCOllum Secre-
tary. This Board has gone earnestly
to work, giving free transportation
to any of its members, besides
lNTHlSHlfB HufSeS anu uotkOfH 10 lilt
sick, in the broad hours of the day
and the dead hours of the night
their footsteps are heard and with
unremitting vigilance they watch
over their members and families,
carrying aid and comfort wherever
needed; they ask for no charity
from the world at large, but their
Supreme Dictator keeps an ever
watchful eye over them all, and
when the cry of distress is heard
relief comes, and at his dictum
funds are supplied for all necessary
relief, and far more does their char
ity extend, for when member dies
his heirs receive $1,000. What
greater charity than this? The
Knights of Honor have in our pres
ent afiliction been prompt in their
action-first to the front-and the
Board of Relief has done and is do
ing heroic work. The President of
the Board il working earnestly,
ever among the sick and distressed,

manity, and to such we say, "GOd
