State Elections in Kentucky and Ala.
hama.
MOBILE, Ala, August 2.-The election
for State and county officers took place
to-day. In opposition to the regular Dem
ocrade ticket was one made by fusion oil
Republicans, Greenbackers, and 1nde.
pendents. Verbal reports from election
officers at the closing Of the pslls show a
clear majority for the straight Democratic
ticket.
Reports at the Democratic Executive
Committees rooms from the interior OF
the State, leave no doubt Of Alabama poll
ing a heavy Democratic vote.
Further returns in Mobile county show
clean sweep for the Democrats against the
Republicans and Greenbsckers. The low.
est candidates will have ], 900 majority.
KENTUCKY.
LOUISVILLE, August 2.-Tbe election To-
day passed of very quietly throughout the
State. Nominations were made by the
Republicans in very few counties and the
vote polled was light. Circuit judges and
commonwealth attorneys were elected in
each Of the eighteen Judicial Districts,
and Democrats are elected in at least
fifteen.
In the Eighth Congressional district the
Democratic primary election resulted in
the nomination Of P. B. Thompson, Jr., for
re election to Congress.
The circuit clerks, sheritfs, magistrates
and constables were elected in all the coun-
ties, and municipal officers in many cities
and towns; Democrats were elected gen.
orally.
In consequence Of the many candidates
voted for in this city,it will slate before
the result Is known.
MONTGOMERY, August 2.-The election
to-day was for full list OF State and coun-
ty officers. All returns indicate an i'm
mense Democratic majority, as great in.
terest was felt in local matters aud full
vote brought out. The Republicans had
no State ticket in the field, and were in.
s,ructed to vote the GreOnback ticket, but
they failed to do SO In many localities.
Fifty thousand Democratic majority is q
low estimate.
MoslLE, August "A special to the
Reqistsr says: Tuscaloosa, Perry, Dillas,
Bullock, Macon and Montgomery counties
90 heavily Democratic. Returns from
Lewiston and Morgan are highly favorable
for $1,000 majority at least for the State
ticket. f.l

The question wheather the
South American continents sink
ing or not is one on which cOnsi-
derahle difference Of opinion still
exists. Professor OrtOn several
years ago expressed the belief
that the harometric observations
of the nights OF the principal
mountaiuS, which have been con
tipued through more than II hun
dred years, afforded evidence of
Il gradual sinking, and this opIn-
ion has prevailed extensively.
Professor Agassiz believed that
the eastern coast was sinking,
while the western coast Was ris-
ing, and Darwin infers, from the
discovery Of the remains of an an
cient civilization on lands that
are now tao high for the develop
nient of human life, that the land
is rising. DR.. w. Weiss read a
paper before the Berlin Geograph'
ical Society..at a recent meaiipg, iii
which he advanced the theory,
founded on Il comparison Of Oh
servatiOns which had been made
at the mouths of rivers, that the
continent Is rising. The l5thmus
Of Panama seems to be rising, and
signs of elevation are apparent on
the north coast Of the continent.

Now that the election is over

the South has played in the pOliti.

since the war, happily concluded,
nearly sixteen years ago, at Appo'
mattox Court House, by the sur

ing the past three years, we have
had balance of trade in our favor
in our dealings with Europe, The
probability is extreme that, not
withstanding the tremendous
treasure output of our mines
those of the ComstOck lode alone,
in the fifteen years following tn e
war r,aggregating about $500, ,000,0 ,000
three years ago, we had not, in
the whole country, three hundred
millions in specie. For fifteen
years the south have been pouring
its crops of cotton, sugar and to-
bacco into the markets of the
world. 1t is no eXaggeration To
say that the export market valu,
of these staples since the wer has
been twOt ousand four hundred
millions of dollars. We think it
very likely that, to-day, there are
six hundred millions of dollars in
gold and silver in the United
States, in a shape to be used As
currency. Deducting the cOntri-

The " Fifteen Passenger Bill"
in the form Ola modified treaty

law, and the people Of California
who are So keenIy sensitive TO the

Buying = Safe Thing.

A solid-lonking old man with
broad feet and thick fingers, yes
terday entered a jewelry store on
the Bowery to buy some little
mOmentO of his visit to the big
city. When he unbOttoned his
overcoat and removed his mittens
he said:
/ guess Pll buy sunthin' for the
old woman. She don't 60 much
Oh gew gaws, but L parldy pro-
missed to buy her set Of jewelry.
Let lne see sunthin' for twenty
dollars"
The jewe,sr exhibited several
sets, and afte, paving them over
"heftiDg the weight and anything
on them, the stranger said:
Twenty dollars is an awful
price. Why Pve work many 3
month for less'n that. / don't
believe the old woman has got
the right complexion to match
'em. Show me sunthin' for fif-
teen"
Several sets at that price were
passed out, and afte- long in
spection the farmer saiu:
" That's heap Of money to lay
out in gewgaws just as winter Is
coming on. l don't believe l can
go over ten dOllrrs,"
The third lot was passed out
He had almost made up his mind
to take u certain set when he sud-
denly remarked:
Lauds alive! But ten dollars
is the price of two calves, and
they wouldent match the old wo-
mans hair, ei,heri'
He was shown SONS sets at five
some at three. and fiUaliy some at
a dollar. The latter figure hit him
hard, and he was feeling for his
wallet, when he asked:
Are they solid gold?"
He was answered hat he could
NOT expect solid gold jewelry at
that price, when he SAID:
q" Well, / guess 1 wont buy any
thing of that sort. 1t would be
an inducement for robbers TO
break in, and like enough the old
woman would become vain and
lazy. l don't know nc lcl about

Head Cat Open by n Circular saw


While stopping over at Live Oak last Friday
night we learned from some colored men near
the depot that, on the morning previous, George
N. Marshal, colored, while working at the saw
mill OF Dickers and jackson, at that place, re-
ceved terrible wound, and one likely 10 prove
fatal He was STOPPING under the saw attending
to something and unthoughtedly raised his head
too high, when the saw struck him on the top of
it, cutting it open from the inner corner of one
eyebrow to the back part so as To let out por-
ton of the brain. Without falling, however, he
walked to a wagon standing near, got into it and
was driven home, where he received prompt
medical attention. He was delegate to the late
Republican Convention at Gainesville.

had his hand badly cut and still another was

From the Palatka Herald

The work of commencing the work on the
railroad from this place TO Gainesville has been
retarded by some complications in the famous
Vose decree, which has heretofore paralyzed all
attempts at internal improvement in this State
but the present and progressive State govern.
ment is taking active measures to have it straight.
ened out, which will be done at once. The road
will then progress vigorously, and IFS construc.
advancement which has had no parallel in this
section since the advent of DeSOto on its shores
The lumber traffic will be an important feature
in the enterprise. No less than six thousand feet
per acre, can be cut from most OF the route, and
the transportation of this will prove q most re-
munerative business for the road.
