MANSFIELD.

The result of the vote on general election last week was surprise to both parties, not only in this town, but every where. In this town it was predicted that the republicans would have major ity of one hundred, and instead it was only twenty, with loss of one repre- sentative. There was plenty of poodle money, and it looks as though those that sold their votes voted the democratic ticket. This secret ballot law is an un- certain thing for boodlers. Large bets were made on the general result, and the republicans are the losers. It matters little which party wins. The prohibition party boiled thirty votes, and the demo- crats helped elect their representative. Refreshments were served by the ladies' social, and were highly appreciated by the many that fed the inner man with a generous bowl of oysters, a piece of pie and cup of coffee for twenty-five cents. The social met in the evening and good time was enjoyed. The net proceeds were over twenty dollars, mostly from the oyster dinner. When the ladies manage things there is no tobacco nor rum, and all was quiet around the polls.

Listener in Boston Transcript: A vou

Listener in Boston Transcript: A young man of the Listeners acquaintance had a queer little experience the other day. He is most excellent and gentlemanly per- son, of correct principles and courteous manners, and he generally goes on the theory that all men are worthy of being treated as if they were gentlemen and all women as if they were ladies, until they themselves prove that they are not worthy of that confidence. He goes frequently to 8 certain restaurant where girl walters are employed; and as he often goes there at an hour when there are few other cus- toners, he had fallen into the habit of conversing pleasantly occasionally with the young woman who waits upon him. The other evening she herself, in talking to him, dwelt upon the hardships of her life as a waitress and the prospect of their indefinite continuance. "But," said the young man, "some day you will probably marry some respectable young man and leave off table waiting." Respectable young man!" sniffed the girl; .sthere ain't any such thing; at any rate there never was one that come into this res taurant!"
 He thought she might have said ''pres- ent company excepted" but she didn't.

 The English box coats ad- vertised last week at Sfo and $12, went in two days, all of them. Small quantities were received during the week from time to time, but were picked up as fast as shown. To-day we have enough to advertise.
 The jacket at $1o is made from best clay diagonal, black, navy or tan, with satin facings, and pearl buttons. The one at $12 is a similar garment lined all over with rich satin rhadame of a color matching the cloth.
 Both are fine examples of the tailor's art-coats for la dies, however critical their tastes.
 By the way, you will find good stylish jackets at $5, $7.5o and So, scarce in this region. We are fully SUD- piled.

 Thanksgiving Table Linens.
 Our way of buying linens gives us a certain advantage over merchants in general ; so we get what merchants in general know nothing about.
 We buy of the maker in Europe. Our resident buyers abroad go straight to his fac tory; talk Irish to him, Scotch, English, French, Dutch, Ger man, or a mixture of them all find out; compare; choose; and buy largely.
 No other house in this reg ion has resident buyers abroad. Hence no other house can have either goods or prices like the following: | 6S-inch bleached damaSk, S7 cents. 72-inch bleached damask $1OO.

 We put on sale this week suddenly a great purchase o1 dress goods. More than 8ooc yards of stufs worth SI and 1.25 yard we got to sell al 55 cents.
 This sounds incredible. It is plain fact. The goods are from a leading maker; the cream of this seasons mapu- facture; a great many sorts:

Senator Sherman says of the election |: 1T am not given to discussing the reasons for the result of an election, but have no hesitation in saying I believe MT. Cleveland owes his victory to the tariff question. Since the democrats have elect ed their president I am glad that they will also be in full control of both houses of congress, so that the entire burden of responsibility will fall on their shoulders. I suppose they will carry out their ideas of tariff legislation, and that we will have an opportunity of testing practically the two systems of protection and free trade as applied to this country. Personally I have no doubt as to what the popular yer dict will be four years hence."
