If the South has entered upon a de-
liberate conspiracy to falsify the CEN
of "sectionalism" in the North will be
fast and furious. This is a matter of
National concern Stutfing ballot
boxes is bad5 enough, but that is par
TALLY a local offense. To carry the
the principle into the census will be
to convince the North that the South
is not to be trusted in any manner;
that its sole policy is to get power at
any cost Of principle.

HUMAN ENDURANCE.--Charles VOL
colt Brooks, in 1876, read an interest
ing document before the California
Academy of Sciences, in which he de-
clared it had been sufficiently demon
strated that evenfrail canoes and boats,
either by accident of design, have per-
formed voyages across the ocean. In
1919, K~otsebue founda at Rhadack group
four natives of the Carolina Islands,
who had been driven eastward in a
a distance of 1900 miles. In 1919
men came from Honolulu Ito San
Francisco $500 miles, in whale boats.
And more recently the boisterous At
lantic Ocean has been crossed from
New York to Liverpool by a solitary
man in a dory. A dozen of the crew
of the clipper ship Golden Light,
burned in the South Pacific about 1860,
just west of Cape Horn, reached
Hawaii in eighty-two days in a whale
boat under sail, and would have run
upon the reef at Laopaholhof but for
the natives, who swan off to rescue
these exhausted people, all of whom
survived.

NO HOPE OF "A MAJORITY.
The Republicans abandon the House to
the Democrats, and Will Make No Effort
to GGjn Seats

The Republicans abandon the House to
the Democrats, and W5ll Make No Effort
to Gain Seats.
New York Special, Aug. 26.
One of the most important and significant
developments in the political arena this
week is the well-authenticated report that
the Republican managers have given up all
hope of securing majority in the House of
REPRESENTATIVES and will waste no money
in trying to carry Congressional districts.
The Republican Congressional committee
are unable to fight out majority and are
compelled to admit that there is no hope.
Recent advices from Pennsylvania are de-
cidedly favorable to the Democrats and it is
considered certain that the Democrats will
make gains in Ohio. The letters from Illi-
nois and Wisconsin received at headquarters
give very hopeful outlook in those States.
William L. Prettyman, of Pekiu, ILL.,, in q
letter dated Aug. 81, says: "Illinois will
surely plant herself in the Democratic col
umn this fall. The Germans are coming
over to us. Ex-senator Trumbull will be
elected. The only German paper in this
proposes to support Hancock and English.
It has already declared for Trum-
bull.n Hundreds of letters from diff
ferent States give equally favorable reports
of the situation. Many Republicans from
the West, now visiting this city, privately
admit that they have abandoned ali hope of
Garield's election. The grumbling and
growing of many of the Republican papers
at the management of the campaign indi-
Gates that they consider defeat inevitable.
The reports that came in daily of names of
hitherto prominent Republicans who have
declared for Hancock has very depressing
effect on the Republican party managers.
From all parts of the country the bulletins
continue to come in that the Hancock boom
is sweeping everything before it.

A Peculiarly pleasant Ceremony.

The residence of Mr.. Henry Lamb, 219
Broadway, the well known old settler, was
the scene of a very pleasant ceremony at 5
o'clock yesterday-the marriage of his
daughter, Miss Ella p, to Mr.. w. P. jew
ett, late chief clerk in the land department
of the st. Paul and Sioux City railroad, and
at present in the land department of the
State Auditors Office. The ceremony was
performed by the Rev. DR.. Conn, only the
immediate relatives of the contracting par
ties and few intimate friends
being in attendance. A peculiar
ly pleasant feature connected
with the ceremony was the presence of a
brother of Mr.. Jewett, the groom, aud his
bride, who arrived here from Japan Thurs
day last, on their bridal trip. At sos last
evening, the two bridal parties took the
West Wisconsin train east, to visit the
Messrs. Jewett's parents in Connecticut,
where several weeks will be passed. Upon
their return, w. P. Jewett will resume his
duties in this city, while his brother will en-
ter upon professorship in Oberlin county,
O., to which he has been appointed.
