In THE excitement naturally Incident to
the recent Presidential election the official
denial of the reported surrender of Khar-
toum and the defeat and capture of General
Gordon has not received conspicuous notice
In this country. But throughout the civil
ICED world, wherever true courage and a
cool disregard Of personal danger in a
worthy cause are yet deemed meritorous,
that denial affords great, though here, un-
demonstrative satisfaction. Gordon may
be, as some say, a crank, but all observant
men know that, as has been we'll said, the
dividing line between insanity and genius
Is exceedingly narrow.

upper peninsula reports largely increased
majorities for the republican ticket, which
overcome much of the democratic gains in
the lower peninsula. The Post, republican,
claims the election of the republican ticket
by from 10000 to $1,000 plurality. The
exact result in all the Congressional districts
is not yet known, but it is decided that the
first, sixth, seventh, eighth and tenth elect
fusion candidates, while the third, fourth,
ninth snd eleventh are republican. The
second and fifth are still claimed by both
parties.
ALABAMA.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 6.-There is
great rejoicing here, as the news OF Cleve.
lands election seems to be confirmed. The
vote of this State will not be full on account
Of the lack of opposition. The majority for
Cleveland will probably reach $4,000. The
Congressional election returns democrats.
As far as heard from there was not even a
fisticutf on election day.
VIRGINIA
PETERSBURG, Va, Nov. 6.--Leading re-
publcans here assert to day that the repub-
licans have carried Virginia, but do not say
by what majority. The returns received up
to noon from the southwestern part Of the
State show reduced republican gains. The
democrats claim Virginia by 5000 majority.
Tae greatest interest is felt here as to the
result in New York.

MR.. BLAINE.
AUGUSTA: Me-, Nov. 6.-The report that
Mr.. Blaine is, or has been sick since his re-
turn to Augusta is untrue. While he was re.
ceiving congratulations In his library this
morning he said in reply to an inquiry re-
garding his health, II never felt better in
my life. remained in my room most ofthe
time yesterday because after seven weeks
continuous public speaking, was still quite
hoarse and felt that was entitled to one
days rest" The fact is he is in excellent
health and spirits and as this dispatch is
written he is just getting ready to 60 out for
a walk. Senator John Miller telegraphs
Mr.. Blaine this morning that the whole Pa
cifc slope is safe for the republicans and
that California gives Blaine majority of
10000. A dispatch from Oregon reports a
republican majority in that State of 1000.

article is the ouly conceivable reason for his
sending the dispatch referred to. But that
he should have reverted to that resort is
not remarkable in view Of the prospect OF
defeat and ruin before him. OF all the men

Huence" of General Malone, but one threw
away greater opportunities, and none has

given majority for the republican cause

that West Virginia has also, while other
Southern States are still in doubt. The
Northern States alone however, give to
Blaine and Logan 225 electoral votes, and
insure their election. In New York attempts
to tamper with the returns have already

A Largo Nose

And 30, my fair correspondent, yor
have an unduly prominent nose, AnG
wish to lessen the size Of that feature
II possible +?
lam afraid tho evil is beyond human
remedy.
Experiments with spring clothes
pins and compress0rs result only In
Jon fusion.
While an exaggerated mouth may be
modified, and IN expansive ear con.
oealed, the nose must be left to itself,
naked TO the eye of oritisism and the
teeth Of the north wind.
But take comfort.
A prominent nose Is not so unlovely
a thing on tho face of lady and Lang
try bangs and a plenty Of fluffy lace
around the neck will materially aid In
casting the the unduly prominent fea-
turefnto shade.
The pages Of history and the records
OF royal houses are full Of deeds If brave
men and triumphs Of fair women whose
noses were as incorporating as your
nose.
Cnsar, Chsrlemagne and Napoleon,
6emiramis, Queen Elizabeth and Oathe-
rine Of Russia. all rejoiced in an over
generous nasal prominence.
Why should their bysical antitypes,
Of lessor frame and broader culture, 70
gret the mark of distinction which ma
ture has placed ineradicably upon their
faces
If fashion ia at odds with such fea-
ture, then the wise woman will compel
fashion to yield to it,and will avoid the
straight.haired, straight-collared order
of attire which renders her noss too con.
spicuous. She is bound In Justice to
herself to do this.
The fashionable rage for novelty has
much to answer for with regard TO the
dissertation Of Human form divine"
1t has alternately bleached and black
enod the hair, and given to deadly
poisons q permanent place on the toilet
table. 1t has squeezed the feet, twisted
the ankles, and prescribed gait that
is half waadle and all wobble.
But so long as no question IL made Of
introducing the board of the tiatheads
and the foot bandagus OF China, 1t may
be assumed that the nose, whether
dubious, beakish, tiptilted, or "sharp |
~ pen," will be permitted to remain
II you preserve an easy temper, eat
wholesome food and exercise properly,
your nose need never cause you q |
Of worry.
Whatever its shape 1t will be exactly
suited to your other features, and your
ace will present 9 perfect harmony Of
outline.
Left to itself, and not vltiated by bad
blood or diseased mind, this nose, or
my other nose, will be precisely as 1t
hould be. Unvexed nature never
makes mistake in these matters.
