ILLINOIS.

State Register: The republicans are
now claiming majority of one in the
house and of eleven in the senate, giving
them a majority of twelve on joint ballot.
AS matter of fact the house is still in
doubt, although the republican majority in
the senate give that party majority on
joint ballot. The republicans also claim
the election of Smith, and think they will
get Strattan also. Neither of these claims
is allowed by the democrats, and will not
be until better authority is given than any
thing yet produced. The vote is very close
Tor so large state, and it may take the
official figures to decide the result. To il
lustratc how carelessly the figures are for
warded by telegraph, the county of Adams
was announced as giving Orendorff 500
majority, when by the tables published in
the Quincy papers he receives upwards of
500 majority. We do not claim that
Messrs. Orendorf and Raab are elected,
but their chances have not as yet disap-
peared. Our later dispatches may give
more definite information.

A Rhode Island RusliC's
Adventure.

A countryman on visit to friends
went a-fiohing. He caught a small
pickerel. The fisherman was near
sighted, and his mouth had the habit
of standing ajar, and, therefore, ow-
ing to the shortncss of sight, the
fisherman's mouth came very near
the fish when it was unlocked. I'm
oxpectedly, need one say, the fish, by
a sudden Jerk, unlocked itself, jump
ed into the mans mouth and made
straight for his throat, and ran pnrt
way in. A cat and fish are alike
in one Respectfully can not be pull
cd by the tail the wrong way of the
fur or scale. When the man attempt
ed to- take ont the fish, his back fin
stood up aud interfered, and the man
ran home to his friends, who pushed
the fish down, and the fisherman had
dined. You may rise up and de-
nounoc the foregoing as Il base fab
rication, but persons can be produced
who will swear to the main facts in
the case.

Annual Convention Of the
Cotton Planters AssO.
citation, i'm COMnec-
tiOM with tho Ar
kansas state
Fair.

From every quarter of the country
| North and South, we have cheering
news and assurance that the Annual
Convention of the National Cotton
Planters Association, to be held i'll
connection with the Arkansas State
Fair, at Little Rock, beginning Oc-
tober 18th, will be a grand success.
The special feature of the week, of
course, will be this meeting. In view
of this and the interesting subjects
that will come before the members
for their discussion and decision, it is
very necessary that there should be
a large, full and general attendance
from all of the cotton States. To
effect this and make the meeting sue
cessful, every influential means have
been employed to secure the lowest
rates of transportation and hotel
fares. The truth is, the coming ses-
sion is frsught with more matter OF
interest TO the members and people
of the South than any that has ever
occurred. The objects and aims OF
the National Cotton Planters Asso-
citation have accumulated with its
growth, until at the present time its
voice is recognized as potent factor
and influential power in affecting leg
islation on all subjects of importance
to the general welfare of the people
of the cotton States and we might
say OF Cotton Kingdom. To perfect
the organization, in all its "details,
will be the principal purpose of the
coming Convention.
AS the meeting will occur at the
same time and in connection with the
most successful exhibition the Ar
kansas State Fair has ever held, it is
assured that there will be gathered
in council on that occasion the larg-
est number of representative men OF
all kinds of industrial interest that
have ever met together in the South.
The Association is imbued with a
spirit and idea Of progress that cause
it to make its impress very definitely
on all of the great projects of the
age. With broad and philanthropic
view of securing the advantages Of
all improvements in the materialized
industries of the South, it is eager tC
meet and confer with parties from
| all parts Of the world in every ave
nue. of commerce and pursuit of lik'
character. With this view in mind
the officers and members urge upoI
the manufacturers and representative
men of all mechanical, industrial
agricultural, and other like pursuits
from every section, to meet them II
council at Little Rock. They ar
assured that much good and the hap
J.iest results will occur from the de
liberations and opinions OF such
Congress-. The efficiency and powe
of the Association will thus be usc'
to good purpose in executing tn
vast plans and schemes which are be
ing developed in every avenue o
life in the South. For this reason
and as part of their plans for tn
general welfare, the National Cotto,
Planters Association will wclcom
and thank them for their desirabl
prescnce.-I Planters Journal.
