OF all the members Of the featherod
tribes there aro mono which have
been greater favorites, and havo
been regarded with a greater degree
of genuine attachment, than parrots.
Tho beauty of their plumage, with
its wealth and variety Of gorgeous
colors, their symmetry of form and
grncofulness of manner, would alone
have been sufficient TO give them
their popularity.
But tho closest link they have cs.
tablished with our affections is of
course found in their wonderful fac.
ulty for the repetition Of spoken
words and various familiar sounds,
together with their possession, in
many instances, OF n reasoning pow.
er which suggests that they are not
always mere imitators, but really
understand tho general sense OF
what they say. Combined with this
power of speech, the fond attach.

showing toward those who feed or

The Great Contest, -unA
Analysis Of Next Tuesdays Elections

Those who take an interest in the
Presidential election, and we presume
this means nearly everybody now, will
find some use for the statistics and tables
herein contained. The aim is to give all
the Information regarding the situation
that can be given before the votes are
actually counted; by having ready ref
erence as to the size Of each states vote,
how II went four years ago, and other
information of like character, the reader
will be measurably posted as to how
things are going, fully so as to statistics,
and, as the result may not be known for
a day or two after the voting, can make
his own comparisons as the returns come
along, and reach conclusion for him
self in advance OF the official one.
Four hundred and forty.four men, and
these only, will vote for President and
Vice. President as the result OF Tuesdays
balloting. II a majority of the whole
number Tor not less than 223) is wanting
for any candidate, there will be no result
and the gentlemen referred to known as
electors) will have been chosen in vain,
so far as a practical result on their part
is concerned, for in Presidential con-
test plurality or anything less than a
preponderanee Of all the electoral votes
does not count In such case the next
session Of Congress will determine the
election, the House of Representatives
choosing the President, and the Senate
the Vice.President; the former is Demo-
cratic by large majority, and the latter
Republican by 4 small one.
The electoral vote is divided among
the different states as follows:

do not mean to say that all those who
