The election on last Tuesday passed
off without any disturbances whatever,
and resulted in the choice of the en-
tire Democratic nominees except one
legislator. Although soon after the
nominating convention, some disaffec-
ton was manifested at the defeat of
certain persons and in the nomina-
tions of others, yet we never doubted for
a moment the election of the ticket
nominated by the convention. We
were satisfied that before the election,
this dlsaffection would wear away ];
or at least, that all true democrats
would adhere TO their party allegiance
and support the regular ticket. Our
confidence In the fealty of the people
remained unshaken, despite the boasts
of the Independents and Republicans.
Really the Independent movement was
headed by men who were eager for
Office, yet their coalition with hdisaffeeted
Republicans availed them nothing.
Many Republicans voted for the reg
ular Democratic nominees on the pa
rochial ticket.
Let this admonish all malcontents,
hereafter, that there are but two po-
litical parties, to-wit the Democratic
and Republican parties.

The Exposition.

Director General Burke is pushing
work on the Exposition buildings at
New Orleans. In a recent interview
Major Burke gives some information
that may be of interest to our readers
The exposition will be held on the
Upper City Park, containing 247 acres,
grounds belonging to the city of New
Orleans. These grounds are admira-
bly, adapted, almost level, have mag
niticent groves of live oak trees, and
the management will spend over $780,
900 in the establishment of the
grounds.
sThe Main Building covers thirty
two acres. is 1873 feet long, 903 feet
wide, and contains | ,300, 900 feet of
space, including a music hall which
will seat 11,000 persons. Machinery
Hall is 1873 feet long by $50 feet wide.
There are galleries around the outside
wall which will be reached by twenty
elevators, avoiding the disagreable
tramp up a flight of thirty-six steps.
It will require about IA ,Oe0 incandesv
cents or $50 arc lights to light the
Main Building. The floor space is
arranged to avoid preference aisles.
All the aisles, except near the main
entrance for short distance, are uni
formly fourteen feet wide and so ar
ranged as to afford good position and
aisles to all exhibitors.
ssThe horticultural department. will
surpass any display heretofore made in
that line. Mexico will have garden
900, 900 feet, Central America l50, 300
feet and California $4,000 feet. The
hall of conservatory, the largest in the
world, will be six hundred feet long,
one hundred and 1874 feet wide in the
centre, glass roof, with heating apara-
tus aud cold storage attachment.
sAlthough eight months until the
Exposition opens three fourths OF the
space in the man building has been
applied for, and ! have applied to the
management for the erection OF an
Agricultural Hall 600 feet wide, to ac-
comodate the agricultural implements
