We have received from the publishers,
James r. Osgood & Co., Bos ton, perkins Con-
gressional District Vote Map Of the United
States" 1t is an outline map of the United
States, twenty-four by thrty-eight inches in
size, showing the state frontiers, the bounda-
res of the congressional districts, their sizes
and shapes, and the official number of each.
Their votes in the election of 1878, for mem.
bcrs of congress, are indicated with great care
within the boundaries of each district by u
system of coor0d bars, one inch long for each
$4,000 votes red for republicans, blue for
democrats, and white for tho various third
parties. Marginal tables confirm these rec
ords by giving the precise number of votes of
each party in each district during tho election
of 1878. This ingenious map shows the politi-
cal complexion of the union at a glance, Just
as fine picture illustrates subject more
thoroughly than pages of description and
figures can. The blocks of vivid coors,
stamped in all over tho map-almost solid east
of tho Mississippi, widely scattered on the
west-mark where the strongholds of the two
parties are. Political clubs and editors will
be specially interested in this map.

way of paying taxes is very near sublime

If anything will make n democrat weep
scalding tears, it is to inform him that there
are Irislmen in this country who will vote
the republican ticket. The democratic party
lancies that it has a mortgage on the Irish
element in the United States and that Esq.
LIsH will have an opportunity TO foreclosc
on it this fall. In Maine the grief of the
democrats is intense for the reason that they
have discovered that Biddeford, Saco, Port.
land, Lewiston and Bangor will each receive
not less than 500 Irish votes for the repub
lican ticket in the coming election. This i.
grievous, but it is nevertheless true, and
they will be still more sad when they as

can organization is not confined exclusively

HEREAFTER the democratic method of
managing politics will be by lottery schemes
There will be 10 need of conventions, as
the dear people are not expected TO have
much TO say about such matters. In this
way political management is made simple
and easy. A lottery or raille.boaId will
be organized by the Tammany and anti.
Tammany chiefs The names of applicants
will be put in the lottery.wheel OF be raflled
for by this board, and thus the people will
be saved q deal Of trouble, and perhaps as
good results will be reached in that way as
in any other under the organic material of
that party. 1t is entirely new phase in
politics, and, for that matter, so are the shot
gun, intimidation, tissue ballots, false count
ing and the like, but they are all demo-
cratic appliances under which to develop
the popular will. Who will say that this
is not m era of progress? These are the
adopted agencies of the democratic re.

Telegraphic Communication at
ShepherdstOwn.

Since the last issue of our paper an
other much needed Improvement has
been obtained for Shepherdstown-that
of the Telegraph-the great "Western
Union Company" having extended one
of its lines to our town.
The work of putting up the wires
was finished on Saturday evening last,
the 18th instant, and the first dispatch
sent here was from Mr.. Coe, the ctfi-
cient and accomplished Chief Engineer
of the Shenandoah Construction Com
pany, to Col. A. II. Boteler, which was
as follows -
"CHARLEsrowN, WEST VIRGINIA,
l4th Feb'y, 1851 45 Z. NJ.
Received at Shepherdstown, l4th
Feb. 1880, at 4 40 p. NJ
To Hon. A. r. BoteleT-It affords me
great pleasure to congratulate you on
having telegraphic communication Il.
Shepherdstown. This being the hrst
message sent to Shepherdstown on COM
pletiOn of line. w. ".NoE'
OtoR'h, 4 40 z. NJ"
and which of course was promptly res
ponded to by its recipient.
Thus, one Improvement after anoth-
er, follows in logical sequence and rap
id succession, so that Shepherdstown Is
no longer the isolated old place 1t has
heretofore been, but now possesses more
material inducements for business in
vestments than any other town in the
Valley of Virginia. For, besides lis
acknowledged natural advantages OF a
high aud heallhful location, and as "the
central gateway" of this great valley
its beautiful river and its other water
power of hundred feet fall within the
corporate limits of the town-of It's
lime and building stone, hydraulic ce-
ment and other minerals, OF the splen-
did timber and Astounding productive
ness OF the fair aud fertile region around
lit has the G. & o. Canal with its
Telephone along the tow-path from
Cumberland to Washington, and the
Shenandoah Valley Railroad with its
Telegraph, by means OF which direct
communication can be had not only
with all parts of Our own country, but
likewise with nearly every civilized ma
ton of the earth.
We therefore congratulate our fellow
citizens upon being no longer deprived
of the modern facilities for communities
ting with "the rest of mankind, inas-
much as to be without them in these
latter days Of progress and improve
ment is like being headed up in a bar

RArrLEsNAKEs AS MIssIoNARlEs.-ln
1850 there lived in the southern part OF
Missouri family by the name of Wea.
ver-very hard characteristic Ole
man, his wife and FIVE grown up boys.
During the spring John Werner was
bitten by rattesnake. Everything
was resorted to for his relief, but all to
no avail. When they saw he must die
they sent for an old Baptist preacher
to pray for him. He prayed as follows;
eve thank the. Almighty God, for thy
watchful care over us, and for thy
goodness and tender mercy, and espec-
tally do we thank thee for rattlesnakes.
Thou hast sent one to bite John Wea-
yer. We pray the send one to bite
jim, one to bite Henry, one to bite
Sam, one to bite Joe, and epray thee
to send the biggest kind of a rattle
snake to bite the old man, for nothing
but rattlesnakes will ever bring the
Weaver family to repentance. There
are others in Missouri just as bad as the
Weavers. We pray thee to stir up
Missouri, and, if nothing else will bring
the people to repentance, we pray thee
10 shower down more rattlesnakes
Amen. ST. Louis Globe.

4 TERRIBLE Observation-Disclosures Lane,
at cambridge, Lancaster county, Pa, on
Saturday, murdered his wife and two
children, and then took his own life by
poison. When discovered the victims
were lying on their beds, and their third
child, boy three years old. was found
with his feet badly frozen. Its recovery
is doubtful. The verdict the coroner 8
iurv was that Lane murdered his wife and
then administered poison to himself and
children. They had not been seen since
Thursday until the tragedy was discover
ed. Lane, who was twenty-four years OF
age, moved from Carroll county, Mary
land, to cambridge last year, and the
family were in destitute circumstances.
The children killed were girl six yeaIs
and an infant three months old. From
appearances the desperate father, who
was a man of gigantic frame, SIX feet
three inches in height, had, besides pols-
oning the girl seized her by the head and
body and twisted her frame until her
neck was broken. On the bed lay Mrs.
Lane in her night dress, with the side OF
her head crushed in, and her infant, three
months old, lying in her arms, both dead,
the babes right hand holding in its still
ened clutch lot ofits mothers hair. Inc
house is n dilapidated old concern, and
admitted the cold wind through many
creyices in the walls, and i'll the corner
where the little boy was found 1t had
fair sweep on his body. The father was
no doubt driven to the deed by insane de-
sDair.
