parison of the returns from the eight
districts thus far canVassed with the
bulletins sent out on election night by
the City Press Association, has resulted
showing a net Republican gain of 351
votes. In regard to this the Post says,
this afternoon: At first sight such
statement seems important, but in
reality the changes thus far made have
no effect upon Cleveland's plurality as al
ready announced. The returns made
APP for the newspapers on election night
contained many errors, but, strange to
say, subsequent careful examinations
OF the official returns make scarcely any
change in the plurality for Cleveland.
as given unOfficially. An explanation
of this is found in the fact
that the errors made on one
side were balanced with extraordinary
eYenness by errors on the other. A gen
tleman who is very familiar with the
actual figures of the vote in all assembly
districts, said to-day. that the official
plurality for Cleveland would not vary
half dozen votes. from 43 22j which is
given him by the press reports.

Modern Newspaper Work

The aspirant for an editorial career
should consider the matter carefully.
The compensation to newspaper men
is, on the average, not large. Their
hours are irregular; their work fre
quently hard; their disappointments
great; their temptations very numer-
Gus; their associations such as require
constant watchfulness to prevent con-.
tamination. Brilliant newspaper
men, as rule, "burn the candle of
life at both ends" and if they do
night work and use stimulants, we
may complete Adam Clarke's strong
expression, and say that in addition
to burning the candle at both ends,
they put red-hot poker in the mid
die.
Nevertheless, some have a magnif
cent success, and have preserved
moral integrity and physical health
down to the full term of human life.
Many, too, whose success has not been.
conspicuous. lave done as well as the
average men mercantile pursuits
or IN other prol. ,sions. These sue
cessful men are dying and retiring,
Just as successful men everywhere
are-one by one relaxing their grasp
upon the work which has given them
fame and money. No one need sup
pose that there IS not room for him Ia
his chosen profession. Disease, old age,
and death are always making room.
The door is always open for the new
generation, though TIE struggle to en-
ter may at certain times be greater
than at others.
1t is especially necessary in this case
to ask whether the requisite natural
gifts be possessed. A person may
have great intellectual gifts suited to
oratory, craftsmanship, or commerce,
and not be at ali fitted for newspaper
work. Journalism makes peculiar
demand upon the nervous energies,
and requires a quickness of thought
and action not elsewhere so essential.
/ The resources must be well in hand.
There will be TO time for deliberate
examination, but the thought, the de
cision, the language, must all be
ready at short notice.

there shall be appropriated out of any

posed exposition of agricultural and
mechanical capabilities of the colored
races of the worlG, to be held in Exposi-
ton Building in the city of Chicago.
commencing in the month of November,
1885.
THE majority report of the House
Committee on Appropriations appro-
priated $3,s70,000 for fortifTcations. The
minority report, signed by all the
Democrats on the committee except
Messrs. Ellis and Hancock, made it
S595,0G0. The minority give as reason
for the smaller appropriation made,
that it would be useless to waste the
public money TO enter upon the con-
struction or alteration of Notifications
in advance of the determination Of the
exact chara cter of the armament to be
provided for them.
THE conferrees on the pension bill
have reached an agreement upon the
points of difference between the two
houses. The appropriation for the pay
and allowances of pension agents is
made $300,000 Agents for the payment
of pensions are TO receive only S12 so
for each one hundred vouchers prepared
and paid by any agent in excess of 81, 600
per annum. The act of 1873 relating to
claim agents and attorneys and pension
cases is repealed; provided, how
ever, that the rights of the parties
are not abridged or affected as to the
contracts in pending cases. Elaborate
provisions are made for the protection of
claimants against extortionate, irregular
fees by claim agents.
