OF Levy the celebrated cornetist, who will
be in Granite Hall tonight, the Cincinnati
Gazette says;
The magnificent playing of Levy is grea
card and attracts crowds to the Exposition
He is the great cornetist of the world, and
was never in better form than at present. II
is new experience to watch the hush which
comes over the multitude packed into Main
Hall, when this great musician raises his
cornet to his lips, and as he proceeds to perform
impossibilities, to whisper as light as the
zephyr's murmur to the rose, or ring out a
challenge like him whose Blast upon bugIe
horn was worth ten thousand men," the ex.
element became painfully intense. We
have rarely seen, and then only when Patti
Sumbrick or Nelson have made some great
coup, such an ovation as greeted Levy when
he made his bow on Monday, and there has
been no abatement since.

The Capital City swells Harrison's Ma.
jority.

The election in this city was markedly
quiet. No attempt was made by either party
to throw its full vote and the absence of any
crowd or excitement at the pslls was particu-
larry noticeable as at the September election
every ward shows a Republican plurality, and
all but ward 7, clear majority. The plurality
at 45l against 527 in September. The slight
falling off is no doubt due to the absence of
many who at the previous election came
home to vote. The total vote is
l772 against 1876 in September. The
prohibitory vote shows a gain of 2, and
the labor vote of over the recent election.
The city vote at the last Presidential cleo

say that they have for three years offered
poultry raisers, premiums payable in gold

the shadow of a doubt, that the claim made
by them that Nothing on earth will make

them from people who have used the Powder

to again Offer premiums; but SO many per

have devised plan this year, to overcome
