MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.

Indiana Becoming SolidIy Rspub
lican--Results In Montgomery
Alabama. and Ut. Pauls, Mime ESQ
to.
The city election at Indianapolis
Indiana yesterday, passed off very
quietly, but with much interest. A
large vote was polled for a municipal
election. The principal interes. was
caused by the fact that the Democrats
had nominated colored man for City
Marshal, in the hope of dividing the
colored vote, and in their struggle TIC
secure control of the council, which
now stands Is to IL, and which would
give them control of the Fire, Police
and Street cleaning Departments.
At midnight the returns are not all
in, but the Republicans have elected
their entire ticket by at least 1900
majority, and the colored candidate for
Marshal is defeated by 1000 more, the
Irish Democrats scratching largely.
The Republicans have made a gain of
three Councilmen and ons Alderman,
making the Council stand IL to ., and
the Aldermen A to l.
The Republicans are enthusiastic,

Mr.. EDITOR :-Although we are not
living in the city, or directly on the line
of the railroad. still we have churches
and schools and think we are entitled to
some little credit among the civilized
and enlightened. On yesterday che
Lords day., we had the pleasure OF at
tending Ottoblne Chapel, where we
heard a very good sermon delivered by
the Rev. Mr.. Howe, Presiding Elder oil
the United Brethren church. 1t was
Sacramento occasion and there was
quite crowd, and a very large number
of communicates. The Rev. Mr.. Peter
Miller. ofWoodstock, held Commun-
ION Season at Bethel church, Hamburg.
on the same day, we understand, the
congregation was large, the sermon a.
usual good, and the number OF COM
municants large.
| think the Spirit is at work in this
section, there IS Prayer Meeting
weekly at Bethel, aud one every We'd
nesday night at the Disciple church, on
the land OF Mr.. Fenton Rinker, both are
we'll attended and there is quite an in

various denominations OF this locality.
1 am glad to say the prospects are Hat

church at Hamburg, this Spring. We
expect to commence it very soon, and
complete it by July or August. Last,
but not least, we regret very much to
lose the services and good company OF
our highly respected and esteemed friend
Geo. w. Glenn, who has been engaged
in teaching at Rinkerlon, for near five
months. He has made many friends
and would gladly be supported by his
many friends at any time he may see
proper to locate among US. He has
been running subscription school well
attended, numbering forty scholars -
As he is about to leave US, and duty
calls him elsewhere, we can only hope
that he may be as successful wherever
he goes as he has been here, aud he

WHY 1T is So.-The editor of the
Lewisburg Chronicle tells this story OF
country newspapers, as follows: I'VE
are often asked by well meaning per-
sons, why they have to pay higher prices
for country newspapers than those print
ed in the cities. Why do you charge
two dollars year tor the Chronicle,
when | can &c: the New York Stockdsl-
aver, a bigger paper, for dollar and a
half?' We will try to clear up this
mystery. Suppose the Chronicle has a
cash subscription list Of 1000, at $500.
that makes $1,000. Well, now, sup
pose the New York Stockdolager, or
whatever paper you choose for COM
parison. has paying list of one hundred
thousand, at sl,5e, that makes $780,
900. Suppose the city paper has a prof.
on each subscriber of about ten cents,
that clears the publisher els 900. Now
suppose the Chronicle realizes that per
cent. and no more, that would make
the sum OF 800. This latter amount
would compel a country printer to live
very thin himself and squander moth
Ing on his family, while his cOtempOra-
nv could wax as fat as Jeshurum. You
see the necessity Of charging a good
deal more than city printer now, don't

A FREAK OF NATURE. One day
last week a COW belonging TO Aaron
Bcechy, OF Grantsville, had u calfwhich
bore the resemblance and image Of a
deer. The head, ears and feet were a
perfect image OF deer, both IN size and
shape. Its mouth was so small ihat it
was unable to suck the COW, The skin
was dark and perfectly bare, other than
that it closely resembled the skin OF a
deer. Great excitement exists in these
parts over the strange phenomenon as
the COW had been running IN the noun
tain range, among the deer, it is the
decided opinion OF every enc that has
seen the calf that it is a cross between
the COW and deer. Oakland, Nd, Herald.
