The great storm predicted for the early
part of March swept over the State Of New
York on Tuesday of last week, the same
day that the country towns and same of
the municipalities held their elections.
The result politically was an astounding
defeat to the Democrats aud a singing
rebuke to Hill and his Office grabbers.
BY the returns from Duchess county,
where the seat Of Senator Deane was stol-
en- by the Democratic board OF supervis-
ors, the majority in the beard will be re.
versed from % Democrats and Repub.
licans last year to 18 Republicans aud 8
Democrats 10 the next board. The Re.
publicans are jubilant, as most OF ths
Democratic leaders who were foremost il
the steal have been retired from off1cia
life.
Nearly three-quarters of all the election
districts 10 the State that voted were car,
ried by the Republicans.
Orange county shows large Republican
gains. The charter election of Newburg
was carried by the Republicans tho first
time In thirteen years.
At the Peekskil, Lansingburgh, Oswe.
go, Elmira. Canandaigua and other mu.
nicipsl elections Republicans were chosen
by large gains.

therefore stole fiat car al the depot and
pulled out for Landsdown. In the mean.
time the Clinton Branch train left Lands
down for Clinton, aud the young men
hearing 1t coming around a curve 10 the
road jumped from the fat car and ran.
There was collision, the passenger car
being thrown over on its side. The pas

The act creating School Census hu.
reau, that was rushed through the Legis.
lature week before last With such indecent
haste, Is the object OF considerable ad
verse criticism throughout the State. Ii
is, as the Trenton State Gazette says, an.
other step In the general Democratic
movement 10 New Jersey towards cen.
lralized government, and the deprivation
OF communities and the people OF the
right to govern themselves. II takes
from the local authorities the right they
have always exercised OF taking the cen,
sus OF the school children In their own
bailiwicks, and vests 1t in State Super.

be of the same kidney.

Death of DR.. Geo. n. Lar,son.

DR.. Geo. II. Larson, the welI-known
physician Of this city, whose sudden all
tack last Friday evening week was men,
toned In our last issue, died on Monday
evening at about o'clock.
DR.. Larson, probably, had larger cir
Gle of friends and acquaintance than any
other man In this town, and the news Of
his death has fallen as a great sorrow up
on them. He was man who was friend
ly with everyone, and his social qualities
won him hosts Of friends.
He has been active and prominent in
every public movement IN our city and
county for over twenty-five years past,
and was always ready to do his part, and
more, 10 every public enterprise. Here
he will be greatly missed
He was kind and tender-h hearted mao,
willing always to respond professionally
to the call of the poorest, and without
reference TO financial reward. Hundreds
not only have been attended free, but
have also been supplied with medicines.
No matter when call came, at midnight
or 10 the stormiest weather, he was ready
to drive miles into the country to relieve
suffering, without reference to his own
comfort and health.
While engaged in large medical prac-
tice, he managed to And time to serve two
country churches as their pastor, aud did
effective service in each. He seemed to
forget that he had body to look after,
and burdened himself beyond his physical
ability.

extended biographical sketch.

For some months past Mr.. Wilson B.
Kugler,a farmer residing between French

dations on his property. One Sunday
evening sometime last fall his two carri-
ages were cut and disfigured one while
standing 10 the NJ. E. Church yard. and
the other while standing Ia the Railroad
House yard. At about The same time, or
u little previous, a valuable hickory tree
standing In one Of his fields, was glrded
and killed; later on, In two instances
nails were driven into his horses feet. In
several instances grain was stolen from
his granary. On Sunday last, when Mr..
Kugler returned from church, his hired
man, named William Ruth, (who with
his wife had lived with him for six
months pasi) informed him that two of
his horses were sick. Mr.. Kagler imme-
alton found that Paris green had been
mixed with the feed that was In the feed
boxes, and also in the feed bin. BY

General John Sedgwick, at Fredericks-

Lowrey--God bless his soul---tried to do
something for US. He had some shoe
makers aud at night would make the SOL
diers report at his headquarters, where
the shoe shop was located. Green hides,
not IN hear of the cows back, were used
for shse making. A soldier would plant
bis foot on the hairy side Of the hide and
the shoemaker would cut out round
piece OF skin, and with coarse Irvine,
gather up the ends and literally sew the
