trict, G. Dana, the Republican nominee; for the
third district, G. E. Wilcoxen, and for the sec
ond district, L. c. Morehouse, both Democratic
nominees; for the first district, Colonel James
Wilmington, Of San Francisco, and for comp
troller, John 2. Dunn. The convention adj
journed sine die, without making any nOmina-
tons for supreme judges.
The New York Republican State Committee
has selected Mr. Howard Carroll to replace Mr..
Hepburn on the ticket az the candidate of the
party for Congressman-at-la A better Sc
lection could not be made. Mr.. Carroll, though
only % years of age, has long had a national
reputation as one of the most brilliant journal
lists in the country. From the time he attained
his majority he has been one of the most val
ued correspondents of the New York Times, in
trusted with the most delicate and difficult
missions, not only in Washington, but in every
important political centre of the whole country
He is a stalwart Republican in every sense of
the term, highly educated, a ready and etfec-
tive speaker, of genial disposition and generous
impulses, and of unbounded popularity.

THE PITH OF POLITICS.
Ohio Carried by the Democrats by a
Large Majority.
WEST vIRGINIA'S VOTE.
A Republican Gain in the
Congressional Delegation.

CINCINNATI, ONO, Oct. 10th.-The Enquirer
Dem.) claims fifteen Congressman in Ohio.
AS to the majorties it ventures no estimates,
but refers editOrially to its kilograms. 1t says
the victory is decisive and overwhelming and
that it disposes of Foster III politics. 1t as
sumes that the campaign was dishonest on the
part of the Republicans, because, as it alleges,
they talked one way on the liquor question IN
the country and another way III the cities. 1t
says the result is significant beyond the mere
local questions; that the Democrats after being
cheated out of the Presidency in 1876, came
near electing their man in 1880, and that this
and probably similar votes in New York and
Pennsylvania are prophetic of a Democratic
victory in the next Presidential campaign.
PROBABLE LIST OF CONGRESSMAN ELECTED.
A special dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette
(Rep.) from Columbus, gives the following as q
probable list of the Congressman elected: Demo-
cTats-1st district, John f. Follett; I'd, Isaac
W. Jordan; 4th, Benjamin +. Lefovre; 18th,
George w. Seney; 10th, Frank II. Hurd; 18th,
George L. Converse; 10th, Beriah wilkins;
21st, Martin A. Foran total, S. Republicans
Sd district, Emanuel s. ShuItz; 9th, J. Warren
1NSiiSE ilblI, D. w, MGNlOIuliCh. 1tULJ ih' ~
Horr; 18th, J. T. Updegratf; 18th, W. McKin-
ley, Jr.; 10Th, Ezra B. Taylor; goth, A. S. Nc
Clure; total, s. This leaves five districts
doubtful. OF these it is probable that James
Z. Campbell, Dem, is elected in the 9TH dis
trict, and Hart, Rep, in the 18th.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 11.-Seven hundred and
sixty-three precincts show net Democratic
gain of 24,3SO, indicating q Democratic ma
jority in the State of $4,000.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 11.-Full returns of this
city and Hamilton county are as follows: How
ken, the Enquirer's candidate for sheriff, has
LII majority; Pugh, prosecuting attorney,
1886; Muscroft, for coroner, 2,644; Cosgrove,
solicitor 3555-all Democrats. For Congress
1st district, Follett (Dem.) has $50 majority;
Cd, district, Jordon (Dem.) 1,763.
THE RESULT IN WEST VIRGINIA.
WHEELING, WEST VA, Oct 10.-Ohio county,
the home Of the Democratic candidate for Con-
gress, aud hitherto Democratic by about 300
majority, has given Democratic majority of
less than so. Reports from interior counties
indicate the probable election of Golf (Rep.) to
to Congress from the First district by small
majority. The Second and Fourth districts
have been holly contested. There is not much
doubt that both were carried by the Democrats
by majorties ranging from 1000 to 1900 each.
Loter-The First district has elected Golf
(Rep.) to Congress by from 300 to 500 majority,
The same counties in 1880 gave Gen. Hancock
for President majority Of 1,4S4.
CHARLESTON, Oct. 10.-John E. Kenna,
DEM was reelected to Con gress to-day by
small majority from the Third district.

corner of the ground, where Captain Creisz was
in command of the Wilton, West Branch, and
Atalissa companies. On the opposite side of the
grounds were the Federals, commanded by
Capt. Kelly, and consisting of the Upton and
Stanwood companies-both sides being largely
REINFORCED by soldiers from other places, who
were attached to the organizations temporarily.
The skirmish lines moved out and opened the
ball very gradually, one under command of
Capt. Sanford and the other under Lieutenant
Morgridge. Then the artillery chimed In and
the supports came up, and after fanking and
countering advancing and retreating for half
an hour or more, the rebel position was carried
with grand rush, and the flag captured after
o remarkably lively chase.

THE Upton REUNION.
How the Iowa Boys Fought Their Battles Over
Again.

Again.
The Soldiers Reunion at Upton, Iowa, on
the 9th and 2Sth ult., was great success.
The events of the first day were early begun
by the arrival of the Stanwood company, under
Lieutenants Boiling and Brock, and in uniform,
as well as Governor Sherman and Majors Toll
and Farwell and other guests and visitors. A
committee was in waiting TO receive the guests,
and the Stanwood company very neatly formed
on the platform and gave the Governor salute
in passing to the carriage.
Soon after eight o'clock the work of enroll
ment was commenced by the adjutant, in the
courtyard, and his hands were kept very full
all the forenoon without completing it. About
ten o'clock the Wilton Company arrived and
was met at the edge of town by detachment
from the Upton organization. The Wilton
ians arc a fine looking body Of men, Differed
by Captain L. F. Creitz and Lieutenants Nor
gridgc and Cooling. They wear, substantially,
a regulation fatigue uniform and carry their
own muskets-bcing company f, of the Mus
catine County Veteran regiment, commanded
by Colonel Robertson. The company also
brought with it the Wilton Union Band, an
organization of gentlemen and musicians, whose
services were of great assistance during the
Reunion
Two other organized veteran companies also
arrived during the forenoon-those of Captain
Geo Scott, of Atalssa, and Captain II. l. Cru
well, of West Branch. The Wilton and STAN
wood companies numbered about forty men
each.
Soon after eleven o'clock the battalion was
formed in line and the march was taken up to
the fair grounds, where dinner was served.
After dinner a Reunion meeting was held in
front of the amphitheatre, where speeches were
made by the Hon. w. p Wolf, who presided,
Governor Sherman,-who was introduced as an
Iowa soldier and private, too,-Maior S. S.
Farwell, Col. w. S. Robertson, of Muscatine !;
Captain Doran, of Wilton Capt. Rigby, and
others. Prayer was offered by Chaplain L. l..
Sweet, of the Thirty Iowa, and music
was furnished by the Wilton band and the Glee
Club, composed of Messrs. Hammond, Geiger,
Miller, Pine, Burroughs and Tufts.
Thursdays programme consisted of guard
mounting at nine u III. and a sham battle at
