New YoRK, Nov. To- Madison
Square Garden was filed tonight
with an audience of fully 1000 people
to witness the glove contest, Marquis
of Qneensbury rules in which John
l. Sullivan. the champion. was to
knock Professor John FL Latin, the
New York athlete ont IN four rounds.
Many prominent sporting men. as
well as number of brokers, bankers
and merchants, were present.
In the first three rounds there was
some sharp countering, in which Sui
Ivan had the advantage slightly.
Latin fought bis advasary closely
and made some fine hits. In the
fourth round, no sooner had they put
mp their hands than Sullivan caught
Latin on the jaw. This shook him,
bnt he clinched and saved himself
from falling When they broke away
Sullivan put in two raps on Lafin's
face and jaw, making him sit down in
a hurry. When he resumed Latin
tried to make his lead and landed
lightly, but he was too weak and
shaky to do any damage. Sullivan
was very little better off, and his
blows had no force whatever. Once
or twice Latin was sent down, but
his weak and groggy condition
brought this about, and when Sulli-
van caught him on the ear he was
willing TO go to sleep
At this point the firht was stopped
and the referee awarded it to Sulli-
van.

THE ELECTION.

There is not a single particle oe
news OF q ettled or definite charac-
ter in relation to the Presidential
election. II anything, the republi-
cans seem the least hopeful and the
democrats the most jubilant. The
two National Committees are pluck
lily watching the recount in New
York, and either, we think. with sul-
ticient good sense and judgment to
abide by a fair, full and honest result
The party that acts as fir brand 70
violence in this or any other civil
contest will go under. That was
proven years ago. The people are
sovereign and, whilst not interfering
with the freedom of speech will not
permit overt acts. The latest we
have seen is embodied in q telegram
from Mr.. A. w. Campbell, the form
er excellent and able editor of the
Intelligencer, and is as follows:
New YORK, Nov. l3.-At Repub-
hcan headquarters this evening they
inform me that the city canvass thus
far shows gain for Blaine Of 275 to
$50 votes, with the major portion of
the city to hear from. Chairman
Jones, however, does not speak with
any confidence of other material
changes, and says it will be in the
nature of mere chance if such 4
thing occurs. They had just had a
cheerful dispatch from Mr.. Blaine,
saying that he was going out to tea
with some friends. Some Republic
cans have paid their bets and given
MP any further expectation.

NFaud 8. Triumphant.
SHE TRoTs A MILE WITHOUT A MISTAKE
IN 2:09f.

LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. 11.-Maud S.
has proved herself a greater mare
than even her late owner, w. H. Van
derbilt, or her present owner, Robert
Bonner, ever thought she was. She
has beaten the lowest record. The
day was bright for November. There
was large gathering of the best
people of the region at the Fair
Ground track. Hundreds of church.
going people were present among
them several divines.
After some warming-up heats the
ma went to the head of the stretch,
came down and nodded for the word.
Maud S. did not make single mis-
take. The time of the first quarter
was 32aa, and the halfmile 1:04 The
three-quarter pole was reached in
1877, and here Mr.. Bowerman joined
her with runner hitcl.ed to a sulkey.
The finish was strong, and the judges
stopped their watches at 2:094. A
majority of the outside watches made
the time 2:09.
The scene when the mare returned
to the stand for Bair to be weighed
was indescribable. The crowd filled
the quarter stretch and cheered until
their threats were husky Mr.. Bon
ner was congratulated on every side.
When Grant, the colored groom, was
cooling Maud S. on the lawn. scores
of ladies gathered round and asked for
the privilege of touching her on the
nose.
The mare will now be turned ont
for the winter.

Ravage> OfHOg I hOiera.

WILKEsBARRE, Penn, November
10.-The Journals special from Dam
vile, Penn, says cholera is making
fearful inroads upon the hogs in
Northumberland, Union, Snyder and
Montour Counties, and that in many
instances whole pensful have died
from it. The diease makes it's APP
pearance known, by stupor coming
over the hogs, followed in the course
of a few days by the emission of
brownish colored substances from
the nostrils of the animals. Within
two months the town of Northum-
berland alone suffered losses reach
ing $4,000. In the farming districts
contiguous to the Shamokin coal
fields the disease is just making its
appearance, and indications point to
fearful ravages there. The disease
is believed to have been brought into
the district by Western importations.

our thinking people consult with one
another and devise some proper an
substantial project that will not only
bring to Martinsburg this valuable
gift, but provide our people with a
suitable building for useful purposes.

The leaves fall fast, the birds have flown
And winters cold hand presses
The jewels of his frosty crown
On autumn's golden tresses.
And by the southwark flying flocks,
The heart with grief confesses
How soon death gamers up the locks
His icy hand caresses.
When autumn tells me | am old
And cares my life distress,
May winters snowy robes enf0ld
A life that mankind blesses.
