New YoRH, Nov. 2.-The campaign in

Times says sententiously, 1--WE have no
doubt OF the result" The Sun says the
Democratic Committee look for 10000
plurality for Hill, and estimate that the
Prohibition vote will be almost as large as
Hills plurality. Editorially, neither the
Tribune nor the World ventures on q pre-.
dictiou further than that the result will
be close. The correspondents OF tho two
Journals, however, are widely apart; the
formers claiming an easy victory for
Davenport and the lsttes's victory for
Hill. The Herald prints two tables Of
probable msjorities by counties, both
made up by Republicans, one Of which
gives Davenport $3.50 majority, and the
other II 600. The Tribune and TimCs say
the betting is 100 to rs on Davenport, and
the World, while coniessing that those
were the figures few days ago, says the
betting is now even.
The Tribun. says: Governor Hill Is not
devoid OF humor. To friend on Friday
he eaid: "Well, whatever may be the
result Of this campaign, one thing is cer-
tain, the Elmira Gautte, Jones Scale

Another Nut for the Adventists

| Another Nut for the AdventlstS
To THE EDITOR OF THE APPEAL
If the signs mentioned in the
24th chapter of Matthew, as imme.
diately to precede the second com,
| ing of Christ and the end Of the
world. refer to the meteoric shower
Of 1887 and not to the day and gen
| Grafton when Christ was on the
| earth, what construction shall be
placed upon the declaration Of
Christ according to Matthew 10th,
verses q and 81?
In this chapter, Christ fortells
his prosecutions, death and resur-
ection, after which, his second
coming, in these words: For the
son of man shall come in the glory
of his Father, with his anlges; and
then he shall reward every man &C
cording to his works"
Verify I say unto you, there be
some standing here which shall not
taste of death till they see the son
of man coming in his Kingdom
The second coming of Christ was
to precede the end Of the world.
Matthew "a, verses 80 and 81:
"And then shall appear the sign of
the son Of man in Heaven. And
they shall see the son of man COM
ing in the clouds of Heaven with
power and great glory, and he shall
send his anlges with..a great sound
of a trumpet, and they shall gather
his elect from the four winds from
one end of Heaven to the other" "
Is it not apparent to any candid
mind that the coming of the son of
man as stated in Matthew 10th
verses 81 and %, and in chapter
oath, verses, 80 and 81, are one and
the same? And who shall say that
when it was stated that the event
shall take place during the life
term of those to whom Christ was
at the time talking, that he meant
1000 years hence?

Mcclure, in the Times this morn.
ing, abiding to the recollections OF
Grant which George W. Childs has
just published, says: "Childs
throws some new light on Grant
view of the Presidential contest Of
1876. He recites conversation be-
tween the General and several
leading Republicans who declared
Hayes was elected, to which Grant
answered: Gentlemen, it looks to
me as if Tilden was elected This
was on the morning Of the mo-
mentous day, and Grant added:
| would sooner have Tilden than
that the Republicans should have a
President who could be stigmatized
as fraud" To which Mcclure
adds from his own personal recol-
lections, that Grant, on the eve of
his journey around the world, re-
viewed in his presence the contest
Of the Electoral Commission and
the contest before and in the Com
mission very fully. The chief sig
nificance Of his view was his state
ment that he expected from the be-
ginning until the final judgment
that the electoral vote of Louis
lana would be awarded to Tilden.
In point of fact, Gen. Grant doubt
less Influenced Congress to create
the Electoral Commission. He
did it, believing the certificate Of
election would be given to 1ilden.

Sun leader, renews his charge that
Grant owed an unrecognized obliga-
ton to General Rawlins, for the
success of which the latter was
largely the promoter and inspirer.
He says General Grants siege
of Vicksburg, of which his own ac-
count appears today in a magazine,
is graphic, truthful narrative as
far as it goes. We cannot sup
press our regret that he has omit
ted references to the influence
which guided him safely through
the perils which surrounded him
and kept him in chief command
until he vindicated himself. By
the splendid campaign which ended
with the investment of Petersburg,
we are justified from personal
knowledge in saying that Rawlins
was again a potent factor in much
of what took place. Grant could
haye told how persistent Rawlins
was in advocating his plan, which
resulted in the capture of Vicks-
burg, and which Grant finally
adopted, but he fails even to men
ton the name of Rawlins. The
history of Vicksburg has

There is a great deal of quartz, but

The ore was reached on the east
side Of the vein, whereas, it should
have been upon the west.
The vein is about two hundred

an unfortunate sign. 1t is the old
story Of the Sierra Nevada sweat
vein which Johnny Skae struck.
The quartz up against the west wall
is comparatively barren, except
where the ore lies in small patches.
Notwithstanding Rorland's high
opinion Of the mine the fact cannot
be gainsaid that the stuff next the
west wall is not of the kind to war

than it now sells for.
Things are much better in Crown
