AFTER THE BATTLE.

What do you Democrats think Of it
now, anyhow?
Is the First Congressional district Of
West Virginia a Republican district?
You answer no, not by from five to
eight hundred votes.
Is Ohio county Republican county?
You answer no, not by two or three
hundred votes in u Congressional con-
test.
But the First district has just elected
the Republican esndidatei and Ohio
county, with Democratic candidate
selected from among its own citizen
ship, has given majority for the Re-
publican candidate living in another
county.
And still, it will be northumberland
rightly so-that the First district is
Democratic; that Ohio county Is DEM
Oeratie.
ha Presidential election or q Cover
nof's election were to be held tomorrow
the First district would giveia Demo
cratic maiority-it will do 50 in 1854
Ohio county would give Democratic
majority-it will do so In 1884.
Why then did they not do 80 ON the
10th of October, 1882.
Isthis puzzle?
Was it tariff, ortemperance,o or money,
or lack of money, or fraud or any or all
Of these things that reversed the Demo
cratic majority?
We answer no; the tale Is told in a
single sentence:
II raS lack Of organization.
The pretence of organization by the
Democrats in this district was a laugh
able political burlesque.
They called speech.msking and pa
rades and bands and fuss of like sort,
ORGANIZATION!
They expected, indeed, by such emp
ty noise and hustle to sweep down the
quiet, solid, machIne-like ranks and
military discipline of their opponents.
Nothing more ridiculous has been seen
since Mrs. PARTINGron's famous at
tempt to sweep back the tide with her
broom. s
IfDemocrsts never suspected it be-
fore, they ought to know BOW, that
elections are not won In that way. a
well disciplined minority in a district
of eleven counties will sweep away an
unorganiRd majority of 1,500 votes as
easily IS accompany of regular soldiers
can stampede whole regiment Of mill
tia. II they picked up but handful Of
voters at each voting place they would
do il.
Any one accustomed to look over the
field Of POLITICAL contest, could not
but observe the disadvantage at which
the Democrats were going to the polls
on last Tuesday. More than week be-
fore the election, we sounded the alarm.
We did it in language plain enough not
to be misunderstood, yet desiring not to
add encouragement to the situstion.
We then said what it may even now be
profitable for Democrats to review and
ponder;

How an Ostrich Kicks.
fJanuary Cantury.l

When farmer goes into a savage brd's
camp he takes with him thorn pole, with
q branch or two Of the thorny bush left on
the end. This is called "tuck," !" and when
the tuck is applied to the ostrich's neck or
head (his tender points, he ia almost in
variably subdued, and, after one or two
efforts to escape, bolts furiously off to the
other side of the camp, where le races up
and down to vent his baffied rage. IT, how
ever, the bird gets near enough to his OPP
ponent to give the so-called kick, he lifts
his bony leg as high as his body
and throws 1t forward with demoniac
grotesqueness, and brings it down with ter
rlble force. His object is to rip the enemy
down with his dangerous claw, but In most
cases 1t is the fat bottom of his foot which
strikes, and the kick is dangerous as much
from Its sheer power as from its lacerating
effects. 1t is a movement of terrible velo-
city and power, at all events. Several In
stances may be mentioned of herd-boys
being thus either wounded, naimed, or
killed outright One case occurred near
Graaf Rsinet, in which horse had his back
broken by a single blow. In this case the
bird had endeavored to kill the rider, but
| missed him and struck the horse Many per-
sons have been set upon by birds when
there was no shelter, not even u tree to
| run TO. In such a case, II the pursued were
acquainted with struthious tactics, he would
| lie down fiat on the ground; where the bird
finds II impossible TO strike him. But eyer
this is no light matter, for some birds ir
their rage at being baifled of their kick, viii
roll over their PROSTATE enemy, believing
with fury and trampling upon him In the
most eontenptuous fashion. One man wht
thus attempted the lying-down plan fount
that every time he attempted to rise the birt
would return and stand sentry over him, til
at last, after creeping distance he got GU
only by swimming pond that bounded
one side of the camp,

The street Market.

We believe there is no longer any doubt
in the minds of the members Of City
Council that public sentiment is against the
removal Of the market from King street,
and decidedly opposed to any change what
ever, unless it is the authorization Of
another market on Madison street.
Such being the case, the Council, at its
meeting this evening, should promptly ex-
unguish the French street scheme, and
crush it so effectually that 1t will not be
likely to come up again for years. 1t was
an iil-adyised suggestion, not demanded by
public Judgment, and not asked for by any
considerable number of citizens. 1t never
even attained the dignity of public re-
quest, and seemed to be engineered mainly
by few persons having private interests to
serve.

The GAzETTB's readers Of course have
noticed that for the past few weeks we have
been publishing much more telegraphic
news than formerly. Until recently our
service was confined almost wholly to our
late editions, and in consequence people
who could only be reached by the
first edition of the paper, secured
but little of that days news
aside from local matters. Now, however,
an arrangement is In operation by which we
are enabled TO print much news by wire in
our first edition, and commencing with to-
day we will, give, except on rare occasions,
at least column of kilograms, and that
edition which is for sale on the streets at l
O'Clock, will contain ali i'm portant news up
to l2 o'clock noon.
This is done through contract with
the Mutual Union Telegraph Company,
by which special wire, running direct from
tho general office of the United Press Asso-
citation In New York, has been leased. 1t
not only insures more prompt transmission
Of news, but gives US service largely In
creased In volume. Commencing at 8
O'Clock a. M, the kilograms continue to
come in until almost 4, and thus for nearly
eight hours we are In constant communica-
ton with all parts of the world
This new departure, which will be as sat
isfactory to the patrons as 1t is TO the pub
fishers of the GAZETTE, has been entered
upon in order to give the people superior
newspaper and one that is second to none
in the city. We hope the enterprise OF the
GAZETTE will be appreciated by the citizens
Of Wilmington, and from the way sub
fcriptions are pouring in upon ns we art
perfectly satisfied that the people are begin
ming to see the difference between Hecs
paper published at one cent and daily
publication made up in slovenly styl'
from other papers, at the same price.

bookbuyers take to. Such
