AFTER ELECTION TALK.
I'm Ohio

Nm OhlO
The result of the election has proved
great surprise to all parties. The
heavy gains made come from the
strongholds of the republicans. Coun-
ties which gave Foster nearly 1000 a
year ago whipped around and went
democratic.
Returns are coming in slowly, as the
republicans are getting no more ad-
vices and conceding everything but a
few congressman. Estimates put the
democratic majority in the state at 20, j.
600, and make the congressional dele
cation stand fifteen democrats to six
republicans. A peculiar feature of the
contest is that while the republicans
were championing temperance the pro
hibition vote has greatly increased, and
it is estimated as a larger per cent. o.
gain than the democratic.
CONGRESSMAN ELECTED.
The democrats, as will be seen, have
made large gains in the congi essional
delegating, having carried the follow
ing:
First District .Toliett.

and Robinson.
THE NEWS IN NEW YORK.
The result of Tuesdays democratic
victory in Ohio has had a rather dis
rouraging effect upon the republicans
here. Politicians are now specializing
upon the probable effects of similar
democratic successes in New York and
Pennsylvania upon the presidential
election of 1884 That the issue in Ohio
will necessarily influence the elections
in these two states is admitted on all
hands, and only the most hopeful of
republicans are confident of success.
There is not 50 much fear for Pennsyl.
vania as for New York, yet there are
many who prophnsy defeat in both
states. A jubilant democrat said at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel this afternoon:
don Cameron told me a few days
ago that if the democrats had any
sense they would have this country in
their hands for the next tiftet n years.
He added, it is true that the demo
Gratis didn't have any sense, but we
think we have, and We are going in to
win this time. We shall carry New
York and, think, Pennsylvania. That
will be pretty good starter for 1884, !"
THE FEELING IN WASHINGTON.
The full extent of the republican dis
aster in OHIO did not become known
here until to-day. Then it became real
lied that the party had been totally

The London Times Egyptian cores
pondent, who accompanied Sir Garnet
Woolseleys column on its march from
Tel-el Kebir to Cairo, notes the curious
fact that the war has not interferred
with husbandry. AS the troops passed
along, the fellahs were blowing with
their wooden machines which have re-
NAMED unchanged since the days o.
the Pharaohs, and lifted their eyes but
did not even check the slow pace of
their oxen. Here and there" he
writes, "4ere patches of Indian hemp,
from which the maddening hasheesh Is
distilled; while vast areas covered with
cotton are springing into flower. Two
CROPS we observed side by side in this
most kindly of all lands, produced by
the unusual condition of irrigation this
ar--namely: maize nearly ripe and
maize just springing from the 6 ound. "
The corresp ondent however, does not
mention that all this husbandry and
the fertility of this kindly soil only GO
to pay off debts these hushandmen cid
not incur, and thai all the fellaheen can
ralse is contiscated to satisfy the greed
of foreign boudholders, who have al

The elevated railroad scandal, one of
the worst that has soiled the badly
stained record of American corporate
management has come up afresh in
New York. A suit has been begun by
by two Of tho stockholders of the Me
tropolitian Company to annul the ar
rangement by which the dividend guar
anteed to it by the Manhatten Corn
psny was reduced from 10 per cent. a
year to 6 per cent. These stockhold-
els admit that the change was made
by the officers of the Metropolitan,
but declare that the action was corrupt.
In doing it, they say, these officers vi
olated their trusts and did 50 corruptly
for their own personal ends. The men
specially charged with this fiduciary
treachery are Jay Gould, Russell Sage,
and Cyrus w. Field. AS the principal
owners of Manhattan they were the
beneticiares of large amount of
what they took away from the Metrop-
ohtlan, To a certain extent the pub
lie have become Indifferent To any such
charges against Gould and Sage. They
believe all the accusations to be true,
and that none of the otienses will be
punished. But Cyrus w. Fields pc,
sition mas been different. His mag
ni6cient success in the piol eer work
of international telegraphy gave him
the world over a position rs one of the
FIRST citizens Of his country. But his
name OF late years has been CON
nected, justly or unjus,ly, with some
of the scandals Of Wall street.

The neatest way, says a New York
letter, to modestly display a foot is to
cross the leg which it belongs to cover
the other. This lifts the foot about six
inches from the floor, and lets it hang
in easy graceful suspension. The lower
edge of the skirt should lie across the
instep, so that only the front half of
the foot is shown, but that is sufficient,
in the present f~ragmentary state of
slippers and sandals, to show a good bit
of the finely embroidered or delicately
woven stocking.
