Kind words from Major Eaton.

The following letter appeared IN the
last issue of the Hermosa Pilot:
EDITOR PILoT:-Possibly the notice
issued by the executive committee of the
reunion to be held at Sturgis on the Sd
Of July, us sufficient to induce every sur
vivor of the late war-resident of the
Hills-to be present on that occasion.
But in the fear not every one may APP
preciate the pleasure to be derived by
attending it, beg to commend it by. a
word or two in addition to the official
notice. Those who were SO fortunate as
to attend the reunion held there last
winter, will bear me witness that the
people of that town not only understand
the art of entertaining, but take evident
pleasure in exhibiting their generous
hospitality on sireh occasions. And the
fact that our numbers are now so rap
idly growing less and that but
"A few more years shall roll,
A few more seasons come,
Til we shall be with those that rest,
Asleep within thetemb.''
should prompt us to embrace every OPP
postanity for fraternal greeting and re-
yising the memories OF those trying
times. =

 ALBANY, Nov. 6.-A serenade was tender- ed Governor Hill tonight by the Buffalo ss- sociation and the Pilsuer club, the leading Democratic organizations of this city and Troy respectively in honor of his reelection. After the serenade District Attorney Reilly congratulated Governor Hill on his re-elec- tion on behalf of the Buffalo association, the Democrats of Albany and the Democracy of the State at large.
 In responding Governor Hill, after casting aspersions upon the black sheep of the Dem- ocratic fold who attempted in vain to defeat him, said:
 Our success in the gubernatorial contest is marred, however, by the shadow of national disaster. In common with every true Demo- crat greatly regret the defeat of President Cleveland in the State and in the nation. He deserved better at the hands of the people of this country. Honest, brave and courageous, he galiantly led his party in the great contest for tariff reform and suffers defeat owing to false clamor, unjust prejudices, unfair repre- sentations and the gigantic and combined eff 1 forts of all the monopolists of the country. The governor went on to pay glowing tribute to the Presidents boldness in taking upon himself to make the issue for his party. ] In conclusion he said: The course which I duty marks out for us is now plain.

BEEN BUTLER,s PROPHEsIEs;

What He Thinks of Cleveland and
 What Republican Triumph Will Do
 For the Country.
 LOWELL, Nov. 8.-At Republican jubila- tion meeting tonight Gen. B. F. Butler was the first speaker. He said he rejoiced with those present over the victory and they should be lenient with Democratic opponents, the masses of whom meant we'll but were imper- fectly informed. He critised President Cleveland's tariff message as 8 schoolboy idea of the tariff question and said he would have probably been reelected but for that The battle was fought and won on that issue, but it was more of 8 western than an eastern victory. New England manufacturing places gave Cleveland majorities where they ought to have known better. Still, he said, the tariff would be made lower than either the Mills or the Senate bill made it, but the duties kept on would be permanent. He fore shadowed the Republican policy by claiming that the fourteenth amendment was being violated by the abridgement of the rights of the negro. A Republican Congress should see to it that the representation from the South should be abridged in proportion to the votes which are counted. He closed with prediction that Mexico would be annexed to this country.

THE NRxT ooNGREss.

The House Will be Republican by a
 Splendid Majority of From Ten to
 Twenty.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-Late this afternoon Nr. Edward MePherson said: "AI1 of the information obtainable iustifes me in ex- pressing the opinion that the next House will consist of 173 Republicans and 152 Demo crats. There Is possibility that the Re- publican majority may be reduced by later advices to 19 or 20, but I have made most liberal allowances in my calculations for all Democratic claims"
 Representative Breckenridge of Kentucky, Democratic member of the ways and means committee, expresses the opinion that the Republican majority in the next House will be very slender and is confident that it can not exceed ten in any wsy. According to his calculations the Republicans must show a gain of nineteen Republicans to show a ma iority, and he does not believe that they have much exceeded that figure.

His Estimated Majority of 5000 May
 Be Null Because of Illegal Ballots.
 CovINGToN, Ky, Nov. 7.-There is talk of throwing out the Carlisle ballots in Camp bell county and some of those in Kenton county on account of alleged illegality in the ballots. Instead of being plain ballots, with no distinguishing mark, as the law directs, the Carlisle ballots in these counties were printed in long slips separated by perfora- lions that they might be easily torn apart. They were torn carelessly apart, leaving the ballots of irregular shape and containing the perforations. Carlisle's majority is placed at about 5000. Should the election boards of Campbell and Kenton counties decide to throw out the entire vote for Carlisle his majority would be reduced to nothing, or whereabouts. The Campbell county board s Republican and 8 pressure will be brought to bear upon it to throw out the votes. Should any number of the ballots of Kenton county be also rejected, Carlisle would be in 8 mi- nority and Hamilton's election assured. It is said that Mr. Carlisle has consulted legal advice.
