THE NOVEMBER ELECT IONS.

Later returns from the November
elections show that the Republicans
have been successful in every State
but Mississippi.
Minnesota gives Hubbard and his
associates on the Republican ticket
all the way from 1000 to $4,000
majority. The proposition to ap.
ply the internal improvement lands
to the payment of the adjustment
bonds is no doubt lost and will be
again submitted to the people at the
next election.
In Wisconsin the whole Republi.
can State ticket is elected by major
tiles ranging from 5000 to 1000.
The legislature is Republican by a
reduced majority.
Official returns from every county
IN Pennsylvania give Bailey, the
Republican candidate for State
Treasurer, plurality Of Z ,O02 votes
over Noble, Democrat.
The returns in New York, as as
certained up to Saturday evening,
discloses the curious result that ali
the Republican candidates on the
State ticket are elected by MAORI
ties Of 1000 to 5000, except Hus-
ted, the step-ladder candidate for
treasurer, who is beaten by Max.
well, the Democratic candidate, BY
a majority Of $4,000. Hustled made
himself very obnoxious to the Stall
warts during the late Senatorial
contest, hence his defeat. The Leg.
islature is Democratic in both
branches by small majority.
The latest returns from Virginia
indicate the election Of the Readius-
ter State ticket by from 10000 to
1900 majority. They have also
secured majority of fifteen or
twenty on joint ballot in the Leeis-
.lature. This is q triumph for the
coalition Of Malone and the admin.
istration, and is hailed as the begin.
ming Of the end Of the solid south.

The Conkling candidate for the
Legislature in the Utica, N. Y,
district was elected by good plur:
atty over the Democrat and hall
breed candidates. The regular Re.
publican convention nominated Mr..
Griffin, the half.breeds bolted and
put third ticket in the field, but
the people elected the Stalwart can

The Meridian, Miss, election riot
seems to have been started by a
white man after all. Joseph Bar.
rett, assuming that he had been in.
suited by a colored man, was in the
act of striking the sable offender,
when he was shot by another negro,
and then the trouble began and end.
ed in the arrest of the colored men.
One OF the redeeming clements
which enters into consideration of
the result is the revolution in Kings
county, N. Y, where the Democrat.
ic majority was reduced more than
$4,000, and Republican was elect

Hubbard carried Red Wing by
SO to Ill. Vanderburg carried
Minneapolis by 3,775 to 132. These
splendid endorsements at their own
homes speak we'll for the popularity
of these successful candidates.
The half. breeds and stalwarts in
New York seem to have quarrelled
and scratched each other throughout
the State. Doubtless it is to this
fact that the Democrats are indebt-

nent figure. His victory is so over
whelming, considering the previous
closeness Of the contest, that Ma.

ovation when he returns to Wash

Ink as o COngressm ans Hair
I0Mlc,

From the Washington star Jan. %.
A singular accident, the effects OF
which have net yet entirely disappear
ed, occurred to member of the House
OF Representatives Just before the holi-
day recess. H., had been in the habit
0: using hair tonic before retiring to
bed, cooling his powerful intellec.
thereby and inducing sleep. One
night he forgot it, put out the light,
and laid himself down to sleep; but,
becoming restless, be remembered his
tonic, and reaching out his hand in the
darkness, and thinking he knew just
where 1t was, seizsd a bottle and pour
ed plentiful supply on his head, rub
bing 1t in vigorously with his hands.
He fell asleep, and did not know until
he saw his discolored hands in the
morning that he had used ink instead
OF the hair wash. This led him to look
in the mirror, and he was shocked to
see the spectacle he presented, with
ink stained brow, dyed hair, and cheeks
and throat on which the well-n.gh
ineradicabls fluid had dripped. He
has nearly rubbed all the hair snd skin
of his head and faoe since, but still
traces OF the black deluge remain. His
visit home during the holidays was
principally spent in testing the merits
Of different ink eradicatOrs.
