Scenes and Incidents Of the Day

There is always attached much interest to
elections in Dallas. Usually the excitement
incident reaches a fervor beyond all reason
able grounds. The one yesterday, however,
proved an exception. While it is true that
much anxiety for the veal of different
friends was exhibited, there was lack Of
the usual enthusiasm. Bets in the fore.
noon were freely offered on General Cabell
as the successful candidate for the mayor
atty, but the friends OF Colonel Wylie and
Captain Veal kept pretty "stii'
upper lip" AT the polls in the
different wards laborious duty was per-
formed, and rumor was rife as to who was
the most popular man for the executive
office of the city. The aldermanic solicitors
were present, with friends abundant, but
| they seemed to excite not the proper noto.
riety. In the First ward everything passed
off very pleasantly. There was but small
vote polled, and i. was registered quietly.
| The Second ward proved an exception.
Many drunken men congregated around
the voting place, and one or two difficulties
were imminent at certain periods OF time,
but were squelched by policemen. At the
Third ward much more labor was expended
for the accumulation of votes. 1t embraces
Stringtown, the abiding place of the major
ity of Dallas colored population. "Sambo"
was made hero of for the nonce, and the
uninitiated observer would have approx
mated the conclusion that the Caucasian
race was extinct in this glorious republic of
ours. Bands of mu-.c were on the ground
to inspire latent suffragans with
the importance of their responsibilities
to the city as responsible subjects.
While much interest and great deal of
lobbying made the Fourth ward conspicu-
Gus, there was an absence of any demon
stration other than orderly. The reporter
failed to note the accustomed acrimony,
although each and every candidate pos
sessed bushel of conf fence as to the ulti-
mate and favorable results of the contest.
The candidates themselves were friendly,
social and conservative in their views, and,
doubtless, harbor no ill feeling (the defeated
ones, we mean,) over the frown of Dame
Fortune"

Much enthusiasm was manifested by the
friends OF General Cabell over his election
last evening. A band of music was en-
ployed, and the fire department was per-
suaded to turn out" The display was
attractive, and about 300 people were num-
bered in the procession; The mayor-eiect
was vociferously called upon, on arrival
at his residence, to deliver an address.
He responded by thanking his friends
for their support and pledging fealty to the
trust which had been conferred upon him.
No promises were vouchsafed, but the
declaration that he would endeavor to SUBJ
serve the best interests of the city, with no
detriment to the taxpayer, was extended;
General Cabell. very naturally, felt proud
OF the compliment paid him, and exhibited
much feeling in consequence. Al
ter the adjournment OF the
sercnadc, the band and number OF friends,
repaired 10 the residence OF Mr.. Frank
Cockrell, alderman elect from the First
ward. Music was dispensed and speeches
heard. Mr.. Cockrell seemed grateful for
the compliment conferred by his old asso-
ciates of the fire department, aud promised
all the assistance afforded by his position,
in the advance ment of the department.

Some Of the more sensible colored voters
cut loose from the party leaders and boss

The usual loud-monihed, drunken idiot
and would be politician was out at the polls
and played the role of "bluffer" TO perfec-y
ton, and to the disgust OF the average citi-
zen. The poet Burns onre wrote something
ebout persons seeing themselves as others
saw them, which was applicable yesterday.
The ward politician was at the polls in
full force. A ward politician il a-man who
works for filthy lucre in hand or in sight
or prospective influence, Is devoid oil princi-
pie and is controlled BY money and ego
tism.
The purchaseable voter had money yes

In the pushing about at the polls, the
workers forgot their bliEsful bunionB. The
hacks With their flying streamers, upon

take on a lively appearance.
The heavy WORKERS circulated such mon
strous stories yesterday on the opposition
that they dOuble-discounted ADanias and

sale Of Sh0rt. IIOrns.-The sale OF
registered Short-lIorn cattle At SPRING
dale Farm, near Shepher'lstown, by DIR.
]. ). Tanner, on Wednesday last, although
attended by n large number OF persons
from this county and Maryland and Vir-
ginia, WAS not characterized by any splr-
tied bidding, but OH the contrary the
prices offered were so low that some ami
mails were withdrawn from sale, and many
that were advertised were not offered at
all. The sale was cried by Messrs. Chas.
Lamar, OF this county, aud Charles Fout,
OF Frederick, Nd, with j. C.. Johnson, Of
Baltimore, as clerk. Not including nine fat
cattle, only eight head of cattle were sold,
they being disposed Of As follows: A:rdrie
OF Springdale, y l2-year-Old bull, was
bought BY ii. 5. Thomas. OF Baltimore
County, Md, for $3.50; llth Duke, l-year-
old bull, was bought by Z. +. liargett. OF
Frederick County, Nd, for 400; Airdrie
2d, bull, five months old, was bought by
Jacob IIuffcr, Of Frederick County, Nd,
for $50; Queen of Scots, COW, 21s years
old, bought by Jas. II. GAmbrill. Of Fred

Of this county, for $40; January Rose,

These prices were remarkably low for
such fine cattle, and Ms DR.. Tanner can
dispose of them TO much better advantage
at private sale he did not offer many that
he would have il the prices had been bet
ter. The nine fat cattle, which averaged
between 300 ani 400 pounds each, were
sold to Vim. Bell, of this county, for SIX
cents per pound.

IInlIOw Ecn.-Thcre can be no
doubt that spirits were abroad in this
town OIL Hallow E'en night. Signs were
changed, wagons and carts were over
turned, about four-horse wagon-load OF
porches were piled in front Of one man {
door, and various other like tricks were
played by the mischievous imps. An
other original idea was this: \ gang Of
the "spirits" would walk along with
shelled corn in one hand and piece of
glass in the other; when opposite store
they would toss handful Of corn against
the window and then dash the piece OF
glass OIL the pavement. The irato owner,
hearing the crash, was sure that his plate
glass was ruined, and would rush out
after the marauGers only 10 find himself =
victim to a first-class joke. In one or two
instances, however, pancs of glass were
broken in private dwellings, but on the
whole the celebration WAS Il respectable
one
