The New York Tribune is rapidly throw

Thursday a table of States with predic-

full and that Virginia is certain anti
Bourbon. 1t undoubtedly classed New
Jersey falsely with deliberate intent to
help the Democrats next Tuesday. 1t
set down as doubtful California, Colorado,
Connecticut, Indiana, Oregon, Nevada,
and New York. California voted Repub-
licun in 1860, 1864, 1865, 1872, and 1876, and
Democratic only in 1880, because Of
the unpopularity there of the Re-
puh..can candidate. Colorado has not

conceded TO be Republican in Presi-

an electoral vote for Democratic candi-

FROM PHILADELPHIA
The Political OuiIooIs and Other Inter
eating Maftrra.


GIRARD HOUSE, Nov. 2-For the encouragement
of those who are disposed look at the political
situation with doubling hearts, l am happy to say
matters are looking brighter in Pennsylvania,
with every prospect of success for the Republican
party. Beaver Is winning all hearts and storming
the fortress wherever he goes. Ohio has evidently
set Pennsyiyanians thinking, and besides General
Beavers natural eloquence he carries with him
silent advocate and warning in that crutch,
which appeals more loudly than words to those
who remember the result of former Democratic
rule. 1t is thought by those who ought to know
that the Independent vote will not be nearly so
large as when Wolf went bowling his spite and dis
appointment through the old Keystone; Around
Chambersburg and other supposed Independent
strongholds the former adherents of Republican
ism are us firm in their allegiance as ever they
were. In Philadelphia and elsewhere even the
name of that supposed bugaboo Cameron (who, by
the way, is as strong and patrotica member of the
Republican party as 1t is possible TO tind) Is re-
ceived with rousing cheers, showing that Penn
sylvania still appreciates loyalty. So think
WE MAY LOOK FOR VICTORY
next Tuesday If all goes honestly. Ofthis we may
rest assured, neither Democratic or Independent
candidates for governor Will be elected by fair
means. Coming through the streets of the Quaker
City in the Girard House coach, after being in
Washington, one cannot imagine the contracted
appearance of its Streets nor the shaking the rider
experiences oyer the rough streets after being ac-
customed to the smooth carriage ways of Wash
iugton. Traces of the Bicentennial are fast dis
appearing, workmen are removing the archways
across the Streets and In a few days nothing will
be lett to tell the story unless It be the pi es ofcos

| hotel halls telling their story of the immense
| crowds of visitors The excellent and accomoda-
ting propretors of the Grard say twas utterly inn

LIKE THE IVY.

True love is like the ivy bold,

That pr rJweth on through good aud i'll.
And mid the tempest cllngelh still
What though the wall on which 1t climbs
Have lost the grace OF former times,
VIII then the ivy lose its hold,
Forget the sunny days OF oldG
Nay, rather II will closer cling
with loving clasp, remembering
That II had hardly lived ut all
Without the kindly shelterlng wall.
True love is like the ivy green,
That ne'er forgetteth what hath been,
Aud so, TIL life itself be gone,
Until the end It clnging on.
What though the tree where II may cling
Shall hardly know another sprlngP
What though ", boughs be dead and barof
The twining ivy cllmbeth there
And clasps II with flrmer hold.
with stronger love than that Of old,
Aud lends II grace II never had
When time was young and life was glad.
