THE ELECTIONS,
ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS FROM
THE VARIOUS STATES

New York Conceded to the Democrats,
but the Republicans have Increased
Mo1orities In Pennsylvania and Con.
necticut-The Result Otherwise as
Reported Yesterday.
Special Dispatches to the T1MEsl
OGDEN, Utah, Nov. s, 8 p. NJ
The returns that have come into AL.
bany, N. Y, since yesterday increase
Cars majority, in that State, to 49,
600. There is no doubt of the election
Of the Democratic candidates for State
officers. For the balance of the can
dldates, except Carr, the average ma.
jority is $4,000. The contest is 50
close, however, that the Republicans
refuse to give up the State, repeating
their famous wartime campaign crv:
swat till you hear from St. Lawrence
county," The northern and north
western counties yet to hear from will
probably not, however, materially
affect the result.
The latest returns fix the political
complexion of the Assembly as FOL
lows: Republicans, %; Democrats, So.
There is nothing new in to-day re-
garding the balance of the candidates.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. s, : p. NJ
Nothing new yet regarding the cleo
tons, and nothing definite is known
as to the result; but the Democrats
generally concede the State to the
r, publcans by about $4,000 ma jority
The Republicans scored gains through
out the entire State, but especially in
Philadelphia, where they overcame
the combined opposition of the Dem
ocrats, the dsatfected Republicans,
and the Committee of One Hundred
Citizens, who claimed to be acting in
behalf of no political party. Never
since the war have the Republicans of
Philadelphia been SO elated and con-
fdent of victory. Next year they
predict the Keystone State will be
good for $4,000 majority.
BosToN, Mass, Nov. s, p. H.
Robinson's majority over Butler will
be between 10000 and $4,000, but
the officia! count will be required to
determine the exact number. The
Republicans will have a good working
ma ority in both branches of the Leg.
stature, and will therefore re elect
the next United States Senator.
RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 8, $3.50 p. m.
Malone still claims the State fo
the Readjusters, but there seems te
be no reasonable doubt that the Dem
ocrats have carried it, and they will
haye a majority Of at least 10 votes or
JOINT ballot, and thus shelve Unitec
States Senator Malone.
HARTFORD, Conn, Nov. s, D.. m
The Republican gains are greater
than at first supposed. The Legisla
ture will probably stand: Republi.
cans, l45; Democrats, l02.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 8, 2 p. M
Democratic gains are reported from
this city and Maryland
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Nov. 8, 2 p. m.
Hubbard, Republican candidate 70,
Governor, is undoubtedly elected by at
least $500 majority.
New YORK, Nov. 8, p. m.-The
complexion of the New Jersey Legis-
lature is still in doubt; but Abbott,
Democratic candidate for Governor, is
undoubtedly elected by at least $500
ma jority.

garlic. Going to the utmost extremes of
India, the edicts of Buddha are found in
scribed in the everlasting rocks that grid
the country round and round. Yet, to
travel the land over, and seek in every viii
lage and corner, not q worshiper of Buddhs
can be found. His religion has departed
beyond the Himalayas and beyond the
seas into the outlying islands al d
territory. How is it to be accounted for
Why, good and great rs it was, it failed to
satisfy the instincts of the Buddhistic
character. India has always lived oy its
idealism, which is spiritual tenderness.
The instincts of the nation ressserted in
subsequent times overthrow Buddhism.
The Brahmins protested against its heart
lessness, GOODNESS and hardness. After the
freezing process was discarded, love and
poetry triumphed in every direction. An
other reaction was necessary. Coming
down the stream of time to when Mohsn.
mechanism overran India, strange spec
tacle is presented. They brought into the
country the strict idea of the oneness of
God. 1t worked into Brahminism, and to.
gether they worked many reforms. The
great secret of Indian reform has been the
union of the soul of man and the spirit of
God. People ask, said the speaker,
how far the missionaries have sue.
ceede in India. They have educated. en-.
hghtened, and spread around the people
Influences of morals, truthiulness, and love.
The people of India are determined not to
receive Christ as European, but as an
Oriental. Through their own national
philosophy, knowledge. and intelligence
they must be reached.

BREEZY MATRIMONIAL SEAS.
SHORTHAND BY MACHINE.

A young man sat in an Office up town
with a small nine keyed instrument on the
the table before him. Eight small round
keys with broad key in the middle were
arranged in line. They were attached to
small metal shafts which converged be-
meath roll OF narrow paper at the back of
the machine The instrument is called
stenograpb, and is almost noseless. The
nine keys are really only five, for each
small key on the right is joined to the
corresponding key on the left. Thus four
Of the five characters which the keys print
on the roll Of paper can be struck with
either hand at will, and the middle key
with either thumb.
TIE FIVE characters struck are simply
five short dashes all running one way, that
is crosswise of the strip of paper. Their
value depends upon their position. When
all five keys are struck together
the result is line like "a"
y in the margin. As soon as one
or more keys are struck and re-
leased the strip Of paper joys
on q space, so that if the five
keys are struck in succession the
y result will be a line like " b in
margin. Combinations of these
dashes struck with single
movement form the letters of the alphabet.

BEAUTY BLINDNESS. while ago suit
was appealed from the verdict of jury in
an American city, upon the ground that
the jurors had been so susceptible to the
beauty of the sisters on the witness stand
as to be unable to give an unbiased decision
upon the merits of the cause. Now a

DUPONT Of New Orleans.
The handsome young couple came up from

ceeded to the residence of the groom's parents,
on st. Patrick street. where they will spend their
honeymoon. We congratulate them upon their

much prosperity and great happiness. Oscar is
one of the most estimable young men our town
can boast and his bride is the favored possessor
of attractions of mind, character. and person
which give assurance that she will make q
model helpmeet to her excellent husband. The
Cofeld Guards. of which the groom is one of
the original members, conspired to give their
comrade and his bride surprise by visiting
them Saturday evening, but the stormy weather
compelled postponement of tho affair until
ded by Capt. Jones and Lieut.. McCulloh,
marched to the Gentil residence about half past
9o'clock p. NJ Sunday, and were Hospitality
received. An hour spent in very pleasant
manner mirth and jollity being the order of
the evening. Mr.. Dominique GentiI, the young
groom's most worthy father, had provided q
bountiful supply of refreshments, and toasts to
the health and happiness of the newly married
couple, to their excellent parents and to the
prosperity of the Guards were quatfed in spark
ling Krug. The visitors withdrew at half past
10 o'clock highly pleased with the manner in
which they had been entertained.
