We are glad to state, that the election in
this town, and in the whole county, so far
as we have heard, passed off without dis
turbanee of the peace on last Tuesday.
The vote, as will be seen, was small, but
everybody voted his choice, and that with
out any effort at intimidation or compul-
sion. Taking all things into consideration,
the Democracy have reason to be proud of
their peaceful triumph, and we congratulate
them upon the result. The entire ticket
was elected by a large majority, while the
popular vote was not up to its full strength.

The returns from the county show tina
every nominee OF the Democratic party wa
elected-a glorious triumph for Democracy
The Radicals circulated their tickets anC
had their party workers at the polls, bu
the Democrats reasoned with the coloreC
people, and beat them at their own game
1t demonstrates conclusively that the Radi
cal leaders have lost their power over the
colored element, and that in time they viii
learn that the white people of the county
are their friends, and will do more for them
than the two or three party leaders in the
Radical ranks. Two tickets, both composed
of Democrats-one backed by the Demo
Gratis, the other by the Radical leaders
were offered to the colored people, and the
result shows they accepted the ticket of the
majority of the white men, and failed to
listen to the whispering voice of the temp
ter that would lead them into trouble as
they have been lead iii the past. It's we'll

church in the afternoon. Meanwhile the la
dies had tastefully and beautifully decorated
the church with evergreens and flowers, for
the exercises of the evening. These floral
decorations won the admiration of everybody
who saw them. Especially fine was large
stone vase of ferns placed upon the platform
at one side of the pulpit, the arrangement of
which reminded thesObserver of the variegat
ed colors of our autumnal forests.
