THE BEST ELECTION STORY,

That Is. if Irish Polls Did Not Close
at g P. M.
The best story of the general cleo
ton come from Ireland, and is told
by the Belfast Telegraph on "most re.
liable authority" In the Newton
Stewart district of North Tyrone, in
which Lord Frederick Hamilton,
brother of the First Lord of the Ad-
miralty, and also of the Duke of Aber-
corn, defeated the Rev. Prof. Dougher.
ty by only 40 votes, it was ascertain
ed at 6 in the evening on the polling
day that two invalid Unionist voters
were unpolled. Every available vehi-
Gle suitable for the purpose had been
pressed into service and Lord Frede-
rick's agent was III dilemma, know
ing that the fight would be an ex-
tremely close one
At length it was decided to send q
messenger to Baronscourt, where the
Duke and Duchess OF Abercorn are at
present staying.
After considering the situation, her
Grace, with a woman's readiness OF
resource, suggested that the two farm
horses, blowing in field close by,
should berequisitioned, and the great
state coach, used by thelate Duke and
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, should
be pressed into service. The horses
were brought in, the coach wheeled
out, and then it was discovered that
there was no harness. Woman's Wit
however, again came to the rescue,
and, with the silver-mounted state
harness, which ornamented the
mantel-piece of one OF the principal
apartments in the castle, the
equipage was ready to start.
But all difficulties had not been sur
mounted yet. There was no one but,
the Duke to drive, and the law was
too plain on the subject of peers tax
ing part in elections.
The law, however, said othing about
peeresses, and the Duchess, seeing the
state OF affairs, at once volunteered
her services, mounted the dickey, and
drove off amid the cheers of the as
sembled servants. The first man was
polled at 9:59 and 1857 the second
man, although helived over four miles
distant from the polling station, was
brought into the booth and his vote
recorded.-Pall Mall Gazette.

who would not let him comeinto their
pulpits because they thought him a
fanatic. There are the singers, Top

Isaac Watts and Mrs. Sigourney. And
there the band OF missionaries: David
Abeel, talking of China redeemed; and
John Scudder, of India saved; and
David Brainard, of the aborigines

reaching up my right hand to clasp
theirs in rapturous Misunderstanding,
while their voices come ringing down
from the gallery, crying, "Be thou
faithful unto death, and you shall
have crown!'
My hearers! shall we die in the
arena or rise to join our friends

breaking upon our souls, we shall cry

A CRIMEAN GHOST STORY.
| Sad News OF the Battle Field
Brought by an Apparltion.

& : 80 IS r = 8 =
Sad News OF the Battle Field
brought by an ApparItion.
During the Crimean War a.
captain in the army had a young
er brother in the Seventh Royal
Fusiliers before Sebastopol to whom
ne was much attached One night he
suddenly awoke in bed and saw the
figure Of his brother kneeling in the
room, looking anxiously and loving
ly at him, through light sort of
phosphorescent mist. He noticed
with horror q wound on the right
temple of The head OF the recumbent
figure, from which a red stream
flowed.
"The face was Of a waxy hue, but
transparent looking, and so was the
reddish mark" The narrator got up,
went into the next room, called the
members OF his family and told them
what he had seen. On the Monday
following news was received of the
storming of the Redan, and a fort
night later a friend brought the in
telligence of the brothers death, he
having been killed in the attack. The
narrator adds that "both the colonel
ofthe regiment and one or two officers,
who saw the body, confirmed thetact
that the appearance was much accord
ing to my description, and the death
wound was exactly where 1 had seen
it," -.-
The precise time of the poor officers
death is uncertain, for the BODY was
notfound for thirty-six hours after
ward. The brothers presentiment of
what had happened was, however, on
the night of the day on which the
Redan was stormed.
Another case, this time illustrating
the transference of pain, is that of
the wife of a. well-known LANDSCAPE
painter, who awoke in bed with Il
start one morning, feeling that she
had a severe blow on the mouth, with
a distinct sense that her upper lin
was bleeding. She applied her hand
kerchief to what seemed the injured
! part, but there was no blood, nor, on
| looking in theglass, was there any swell
ing. She took note of the hour-7
! o'clock,--went to bed again, and
treated the matter as only dream.
Some little time afterward her hus-
band, who had been out in sailboat
all the morning, returned, and the
wife noticed that he rather purposeIy
sat further away from her than was
usual, and every now and then put
his handkerchief furtively up to his
lip, in the way she had herself done
earlier in the morning. Asking for an
explanation she was told that "when
I was sailing, sudden squall came
up, throwing the tiller suddenly
around, and it struck me bad blow
in the mouth under Che upper lip, and
it has been bleeding a good deal and
won't stop" The hour, the husband
said, must have been about 7. His
wife adds that 81 then told him what
had happened to me, much to his sur
prise and to all who were with US at
breakfast" American Bookseller.
