The Republican demonstration here
on the evening of the 2sth ult., was a
surprise to many. The crowd was vari-
ously estimated at from 500 to 1000 per-
sons. Had the night been fine, the at
tendance would have been as large again,
and two more Cornet bands and march
ing clubs would have been present. The
following bands were in procession:
st. Clairsville COrnet, G. E. Hughes.
leader; F lushing Cornet, J. Wallace.
leader; New Athens Cornet, Jas. Sarven.
leader; Flushing Military, c. HendeI son,
leader; st. Clairsville Military, Nuzum
& Bros, Understanding five in all.
Three uniformed clubs came from Flush
ing: The G. and A. adult and cadet
Clubs, commanded by Capt. w. Vance !;
the colored G and A. Club, commanded
by Capt. Henderson. One G. and A.
Club from Louisville, Capt. A. 7. Rea ;
one colored G. and A. Club from St.
Clairsville, commanded by Capt. Jack
son; the Wheeling township G. and A.

who also acted as Chief Marshal, assist.

companies were nicely uniformed, and
all were provided with torches. The
old company flag headed the the process
sion, w. II. Johnson, color-bearer. The
parade was witnessed by large numbers
of people, and many handsome, refined
and well dressed ladies, graced the as
semblage by their presence, and so in
teresting were the exercises that al
though the houses of all were thrown
open to them, they stood upon their feet
from until IL o'clock, witnessing the
procession and enjoying the speeches.
The following gentlemen addressed
the meeting, held in the Pyblic Square:
Messrs. Jos. Branson, Nathan Lynn,
Wilbur Nichols, Capt. 0. S. Holloway,
Albert Brown, Capt. ii. Mccall. The
speeches were good, and well received,
the applause being frequent, loud and
long. The speech of Mr.. Brown, a
yound Democrat, was to the point. He
gave his reasons for voting with the Re-
publicans, and closed with stirring

occupied by brave defender of the
Union (Mr. John SMITH, was beautiful

alternately red, white and blue as trans

Mollie Smith and brother had the por-
traits of Garfield and Arthur adorned
with red, white and blue and evergreens
in tasteful manner, but unfortunate
ly these were left in the school house
where it was supposed the speaking
would take place. The house of Mr..
VIM. Dunbar was very tastefully deco
rated-the windows being arranged with
Istrips of red, white and blue, and Amer
lean flags fitted in as transparencies, and
also red and white lights in the trees.
Mr.. VIM. NJ. Kilgore displayed flags and
red light, Mr.. Robert Humphrey flags

In the confusion, we may have omit
ted to notice others, also illuminated.
We cannot make special mention for the
reason that all our friends did what they
could to assist us, and they have our
earnest thanks. We also tender our es-
pecial thanks to the gentlemanly men,
bers of the St. Clairsville Cornet Band,
for complimentary as favor to my
lady visitors, and also two selections as
h complimentary to your unworthy cor
respondent.
In concluding would say that our
meeting was a grand success. Some at
tempts were made to interrupt the
speakers, but we hope and believe that
such do not represent the Democracy of
Wheeling township. Owing to the vast
crowd assembled, and necessarily con-
trolled by their own impulses, the order
was good, and any disorder that did oc-
cur, cannot be attributed strictly to the
members of either party. H.

THE late Democratic candidate for

asseverates with emphasis, that "the
game is not out until all the innings are

of its own to overturn the clearly ex-
pressed will of the people, does not scare
anybody. 1t may as well be understood

WHEN we say the election of Tuesday
was the most important held since tie
war, we believe we express the senti-
ment of rejecting men; and when We
declare that the result is one over which
all patriotic men can congratulate them
selves, and which will work unmeasured
good to the whole country, we are quite
sure we state an automatic truth. 1t
insures steady protection to the great
manufacturing, commercial, and agricul-
tural Interests of the country. and guar.
antees safe and conservative course
so far as our banking and 6nan.
cial interests are concerned. All of these
great interests are now in healthy and
prosperous condition, and the Repubii.
cans do not propose to disturb nor in.
terfere with their prosperity.
This election, too, is a blessing in dis.
guise to the misguided South. The
dominant class down there will now see
clearly that its allies in the North are
powerless, as they were during the war;
that the policy pursued toward the
North and toward Northern men is
working harm to the material interests
of the South, and it is hoped and be-
lieved that ere another Presidential elec-
tion occurs there will be such a recon-
struction of parties in the South as will
remove all danger similar to that
through which the country has Just
safely passed, thanks to the courage and
patriotism of the great North. At all
events, the census of this year will give
the North the advantage of about twen-
ty members of the House of Representa-
tives over the present apportionment.
Now, as to what has been accomplish
ed. The indications are that we have
carried every Northern State, from
ocean to ocean, for Garfield and Arthur,
except, possibly, New Jersey. We will
have good working majority in the
House Of Representatives, and. at the
worst, have tied the Senate, giving the
casting vote in that body to Vice Presi-
dent Arthur.
Our bonnie Buckeye State rolls up
majority of about $4,000.
Belmont comfy gives a Republican
majority of 100.
st. Clairsville precinct opened the eyes
of the Democratic managers. After the
polls had closed they conceded Repub-
lican gain in the county, but were san
guine the gains would be made in Pease
and Pultney townships, while here they
would hold their own. Republicans put
the Democratic loss at from ten to thir-
ty. Imagine the surprise and chagrin
of the brethren when they found their
loss was thirty-five.
The campaign has been a memorable
one, the victory will be far-reaching in
its consequences, and every Republican
who has contributed in anywise toward
it can congratulate himself and the
country OIL the good work.
The Republican gain in majority in
Belmont county over the October vote
is SO. The gain in st. Clairsville pre-
cinct is 35, or nearly One-half the gain of
the entire county. This is a result over
which the Republicans of this election
precinct feel pretty proud, and they pro-
