exciting as the day may be, the in
terest rises to fever heat in the even
ing, when the returns begin to come in.
As the darkness increases, crowds, at
first small and quiet, grow In size and
n%oisiness, while the bulletins are dis
played and one side or the other in
turn seem to triumph.
Joint celebrations were common, says
the st. Louis Globe Democrat in re-
ferring to the recent election. Half q
dozen young men would buy a large
horn. in some cases 8 or 10 feet long,
and bear it on their shoulders, while
the most leather-lunged Of the party
would walk behind the instrument Of
public torture, and from time to time,
applying his lips to the m%Outhpiece,
emit a roar that could easily be heard
from Fourth street to Jefferson avenue.
There is some mysterious quality in
American human nature that renders
it impossible for our citizens, espe-
cially those of more or less tender
years, to enjoy themselves without
making a noise. Whether the occasion
be an election or the marriage of an old
widow to a mar young enough to be
her grandson, noise is the prime ne
cessity, and, in one way or another,
must be had. A few years ago the fire.
cracker was the accepted medium of
rejoicing at any and all events that
called for a display of popular enthu-
siasm, but at present this importation
from China is considered sacred to the
Fourth of July and the tin horn has
forged to the front on election nights
as the proper mean of expressing en-
thusiasm. 1t is at once simple and eff
fective, combining the greatest posi-
BILE racket with dimensions so reason
able as to be comprised within the
limits of an Overcoat pocket. Armed
with this ingenious device, the intelli-
gent voter is prepared to do any
amount of execution, and his presence

the idea of advice or assistance,
and generally makes out his ticket so
as to render it worthless for voting
purposes. A less well-informed man,
with also a trihe less conceit, would
ask the judges for information, for the
intelligent man is always ready to
learn, but the self-sufficient voter, like
the critic in Lallah ROokh, prefers his
own ignorance to the best information
any one else can give him.
When the women take an active in
terest in the election, the chances for
excitement are materially increased.
1t does not often happen that the ladies
interest themselves to such an extent
as to go to the polls for the purpose of
laboring personally with voters, but
when they do. they generally carry
their %point-nOt by neal of argument,
but purely on personal grounds. A
man appealing TO another to change his
vote will present reasons more or less

success of his party, and ready, with
either tongue or fist, to espOuse it's
cause.
The young fellow who, for the first
time, essays to exercise the right of suf-
frage, Is always an interesting figure.
He Is just at the age when a youth is
neither fish nor fowl; that is to say, he
is neither boy nor man. He has just
quit going to school, in all probability,
and has got a good start on a mustache;
his voice has changed, and he no Ion
ger speaks in the broken gander-gos-
ling fashion that distinguished his ut
terances three or four years earlier;
but for all that, he is not yet a full
grown man. He generally into
the polls with some degree of embar-
rassment. He has seen polling places
before, but commonly from afar, for
the big policemen admonished him that
kids are not needed here" This time,
however he is part of the show, and
feels a due sense Of his own import

The COMMITTEE on Claims.

The Council Committee on Claims met
last evening with the City Solicitor to
take up several claims by citizens which
have been pending for some time.
One OF the matters was the Church
claim, which went through protracted
trial in the Circuit Court, at the last
term, and Which was there decided
against the city. which was mulcted in
$500 damages and S36S. Is In the shape
of costs. The matter came up liz Coun-
Gil, at the last session, in the shape OF a
communication from the Solicitor, who
stated the situation, and pointed out
what must be done by the city II an ap-
peal was 20 be taken TO the Supreme
Court. At that session, the matter was
referred back TO the Committee with
instructions 20 settle the matter upon
the most advantageous terms TO the
city, TO avoid further litigation, and TO
report back TO Council. At last even
ing's session the Committee recommend
ed that the verdict in the Circuit Court
be acQuieSced in, and the matter closed
up.
The claim Of Dennis O'Leary, for
damages TO his property in Henderson's
addition, caused by the slipping OF the
street through an excavation for a
water pipe, was next in order. Hon. I.
:. Riley was present as the representa-
tive OF the claimant The amount OF
the claim is S29i. The matter was de-
ferred for two weeks, when testimony
will be taken.
Some other matters were considered
briefly, aud then the Committee ad-
iourned.

the prospect Of several approaching

OF SO tender a subject might well be eE-

England; but from Baltimore, whose
proud boast is TO fairly represent the
people OF the chivalrous aud sentiment

the fairest Of the Southern beauties,
whose men are chiva.ry itself, such
words are strangely out of place.
