1879 and the Republican vote was in
creased 10000.
In the northern part of the state the
Republican vote has been held we'll in
hand and makes much better showing
than it does in the south. Some Of the
lower counties come up in very bad
form.
If our Democratic friends can see any
thing i'm all this to cheer their dropping
spirits they are welcome to it. They
have made clean scoop of the state Off
GERS elected this spring, but they took
their judgement by default. We are not
unmindfnl that there were causes
operating against a full Republican
vote, and Of those we will speak hereafter,
but the returns show that the Republi-
can votes have not gone over to the flu
siOnists. OF the 10000 voters who ne
glec ell TO deposit ballots for the state
ticket at least $4,000 are Republicans,
and when the party is thoroughly
aroused these votes will be p0lIed. These
Democratic victories will lose the Re-
publicans some of the vavering, hut on
a full vote the state is Republican by at
least 10000 majority.

Six thousand baby alligatOrs are sold
in Florida every year, and the amount of
ivory, number of skins, and quantity of
oil obtained from the older members of
the Saurian family are sufficient to en-
title them to high place among the
products of the state.

An Early Telephone,

Considering the recent interest devel-
Oped in telephone experiments, below
is printed, from the Journal of the Tele-
graph of Feb. Is, 1869, an interesting
account of the first experiments in this
direction. This same magazine contains
an interesting account of the electrical
experiments of Arson Stager, Esq: "Dr.
Van der Wyde explained the construction
of new instrument called the tele-
phone by which vocal sounds are trans
mitted to any distance, upon the fact
that electrical currents sent through
the wires produce a frightening and
shortening of the wires, and that the
vibrations thus produced were musical
and could be made audible by a sounding
board. This, as presented by the gentle
man. consists of small box, to which
is attached a speaking-tube. In the CEN
ter of the lid of the box is bladder, or
rubber diaphragm, extremely sensitive
in its vibrations to musical sounds sent
through the speaking tube. On the dia-
phragm is placed platinum wire, con-
nected with a battery. Immediately
over this wire, but not in direct contact
with it is another wire, which is con-
nected with a coil and sounding board
placed at any distance, whether in CAL
ifOrnia or two rooms away. When a
person sung into the box, the musical
vibrations, according to well-knOwn
law of acoustics, produced corresponding
vibrations in the rubber diaphragm.
This in turn produced for every vlbra-
ton contact between the two wires. By
this means current was sent through
to the coil and sounding board, when
it's pitch or tone could readily be dis
tinguished. Much interest was mani
tested in the instrument. The
expression, telegraphing sound, must
not be understood as conveying the
sound as transmitted, as it is by the
ordinary telegraphing. The fact in the
case of the telephone is that musical
notes sounded in New York by means
of its vibrations send currents along a
wire which produce sounds in San Fran
cisco or COnstantinOple. This telephone
though imperfect at present, 1t is belived
contains the germ of a very important
adjunct to telegraphy."

The Election Returns Compared

The EiectlOn returns compared.
Detroit Post and Tribune.
Those who are interested in cleo
tiOn figures can find matter worthy of
attention in comparison of the returns
now coming in with those of recent cleo
lions. The total vote cast at the spring
election was about 258,00O. This is ~
600 over the vote the spring of 1881; is
81 900 less than the total vote of last fall
and $4,000 short of the vote of 1880. 1t
varies only few hundred from the vote
of the spring election of 1879; it is 10000
below the vote of 1873 and $1,000 below
the vote Of 1876.
Since 1880 not less than 10000 have
been added to the voting population of
the state, and counting these, at least
$4,000 voters abstained from voting
either state ticket.
Many of these voted for their township
tickets, and in many townships, 1t Is
reported, there was very full RepuDli-
can vote for local officers. Through
neglect on the part of managers. or in
difference on the part Of voters, and per-
haps mixture of both, this excess of
local votes was not cast for the state
ticket of either party.
The mean of the votes for Blair and
O'Brien is about 10000; this is $4,000
less than the Republican vote of 1882; it
is 1000 less than the Republican vote Of
1881; is $4,000 short of the Republican
vote of 1880; is 1900 under the RepubIi-
can vote of 1879; is 5000 below the Re-
publican vote of 1873, and is $4,000 less
than the Republican vote of 1876.
The average of the votes for Cham
pin and Sherwood, fusionists, is nearly
$4,000. This $4,000 less than the fusion
vote of last fall; is 1000 over the COM
bined fusion vote in the spring of 1881;
is 1900 under the combined fusion vote
Of 1880; is 1000 below the fusion vote at
the spring election in 1879; is $1,000 be-
low the combined fusion vOte 1878, and
is II 900 less than the Democratic vote
for governor in 1876.
In the spring of 1879 the Democrats
and Greenbackers united as the, did
this spring. At the next succeeding
election, 1880. they ran separate tickets;
the Greenbackers polled 30, 600 votes, and
the Democratic candidate for governor
pOlled II, 600 votes more than were cast
forthe fusion candidates in the spring of

EIGHT REASONS
Advanced EBy n Co.ored MAN
why He Should Vote the DEM

w EY 4ae SkfthakO SAe ia bSSkaa.
Ocratic Ticket.
Below we give an article from the
Grenada (Miss.) Sentinel, written
by n sensible colored mar to show
why he is a Democrat:
First-I know that a great major
ity of the white population of the
United States are democrats, and it
is to the interest of the African race
to be friendly with the white people.
About half the population of the
North are democrats, and the great
mass of Southern white people, show
ing that a great majority of the
whole white race are democrats.
Second-Because I thoroughly
understand the Southern white peo-
pie, and they understand me and my
race, and if l., by my conduct,
gain their good will, and show that
we can live together in peace, they
will protect my race now and here
after, and in the future no doubt my
race will need their friendship and
protection.
Tnird-Because all the half mill
ion of emigrants that land in the
United States every year and the
poor laboring people of the North are
naturally opposed to my race, low
ever they may talk and vote, and l
had better, for the future safety of
my race, keep OF the best terms posi-
BILE with the people at home.
FOURTH acknowledge that while
my race is improving in education
by means of the good schools the
democrats gave US, the white race
are more intelligent than my own,
and can give the state better govern
ment for. both races.
Fifth acknowledge that the
democratic party has given us good
officers and good government since
1876. They have kept up the free
schools and made them better than
they we're before, and have passed
no unjust law against my race.
SIXTH hope to have a little piece
of ground and a home of my own
some day, and 1 don't want the coun-
try stirred up and high taxes put on
US as they were under radical rule.
Seventh-As the white people
have been kind to me-when 1 was
in distress-and have furnished me
meat and bread out of their stores on
credit, l always feel better when l
am on good terms with them, and l
know that nothing will please them
more than tor me 20 join the demo
cratic party; hence for the sake OF
myself, my wife, and my children,
and the future of my race, [ am a
true democrat from this time on.
Eighth-If / must vote for white
candidates, l will vote for those that
most Ct the people are for, not a lew
independents who only want my vote
to get office, who can do me no good,
and who will go back on me when it
suits them after they get the office.
