Secretary Henderson HeporuI.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Secretary
Henderson has received advices from
Iowa which remove all doubts in his
mind respecting the election Of NcCOid
and Anderson, two OF the Republican
candidates VINO were feared to be in
some danger of defeat. Colonel Hen
derson has also received despatch
from the chairman Of the Republican
Congressional Committee in Colonel
FaTwelIs district, saying that the cor
test will be very close but that Farwell
will. be elected. This il the Iowa dis
trict whicn the Democratic Congress
s1onal Committee has put down az sure
to elect their candidate
Colonel Henderson is greatly amused
by the claim of the Democrats that
there is any prospect of their carrying
the With and Xth Michigan Districts,
and he says that the latest reports re
ceived from the 1st and Vth Districts,
which were thought to be in some dan
ger fortnight ago, indicats that both OF
them will elect the Republican candi-
dates for Congress. "You may say, "
Colonel Henderson remarked, 'that our
reports from every quarter grow more
encouraging every hour"

1hrso Men Arrestsa for Libel.

WILKEsBARRE, Move nber 2.-Zelia
Van Loon, Democratic candidP to for
Prothonotary, appeared before Alder
man Parsons this afternoon and swore
out warrants against DIR. FL. Hakes, j.
X. Bogert, editor of the Union-Leader,
and E. A. Niven, charging them with
libeling him by means of a circular.
TIE circular, which bears the sigma
ture of DR.. Hakes, is said to have been
issued from Democratic headquarters
and is very damaging to the character
of the plaintiff. Van Loon claims that
the circular was issued for the purpose
of impairing his chances for election,
while the defendants claim that the suit
was brought for political effect in order
to revive the Van Loon STOCK, which
they claim is way below par. The
hearing took place this afternoon, and
Hakes and Bogert were discharged and
Niven held for further hearing.

The German american school.

Prof. Gebner, who has been teaching
the German American school since its
commencement retired yesterday, in
accordance with resolution of the
Board of Managers requesting him to
resign. The only reason given for their
action was to allow the board an oppor-
tunity to employ female teacher and
reduce expenses, Prof. Gebner is a
proficient educator and whether the
actlop of the board in removing. him
will be satisfactory to the parents of the
scholars remains to be seen. On next
Monday the eprofessor will open Q school
at his residence No. 1000 Walnut street,
and from present indications it is pro-

POEMS WORTH READING.


From, the Philadelphia Tinss
All through the summer night we sailed
Beneath the silent skies;
And saw Arcturus M II paled,
And Aldebarau rise,
Then Sirius, Orion bold.
Whole cancellations vast,
That grow aud frightened. worlds untold,
Like armies marching past
The late moon rose, aud moved a queen
Amid the dazzling thrOng;
Yet scarcely seemed to din the sheen-
Aud still we swept along.
Boou's sea. qirt beacon sank away;
The isles ~ shoals Slipped by
And swift alec went slsdOwy bay
And ghostly headland high.
The twin lights up on Thacher's Isle
Shone ont ahead, abeam,
Then far astert: aud all the while
We raced rs in n dream
The world WINS not. The stars alone
Looked on us speeding past
Out from some Infinite unknown
To one ~ vague aud vast.
Aud 40, till Aldcbaran came.
High DER the mast away,
when 10, the dawn, And all ahaine,
Rushed forth the conlueriig day.
Oh night Of nights. your stars have paled,
And dim YOU come to me,
As IL night when once sailed
Some lost Eternity. ..
