eti this entire cmt:nu.uy irom the clos
ing of lie vol's o.M Tuesday night, until
assured by the dispatches, beyond a
reasonable doubt, of the result of the
Presidential vote. The telegraph of
fire was pretty well crowded until
three dVoek on the morning of Wed
nesday, nil through Wednesday, and
nulil about midnight of Wednesday,
with thro, gs of excited citizens. The
first news that ca:.:e was favorable to
the success ot the Democracy, and they
felt correspondingly happy. But things
began to lock dark fiir the parly on
Wednesday morning, and the news
kept .flashing along 'over the wires more
and more tneourngiigly tor the Repnb.
lieans through the day, until evening,
when the news c:ira?, electrifying the
whole city, "Kayes and Wheeler elect
ed beyond a Tuul t !" It was a terrible
partv, because they had been led to be-
lleve, from the reckless actions of !
their j.,urua:-: ai.d speakei, that Til- j

A train in India recently encoun
tered a herd of elephants that were ad
vancing along the. track. The leading
elephant, a large tusker, was apparent
ly only enraged by the whistle, and
charged the advancing train. There
was a trcmenduous concussion, the ele
phant was knocked off to one side,
rantilated ami writhing, and the train
after a series of violent jolts, which
nearly threw it oT the line, came to a
standstill against the bodies of two
other animals of the herd. Xo material
damage was dor.e, the boss elephant
was ehct by a passenger, and the rest
ct the herd seam pered off in a bewil

THE NEW COXGEESS.
i Indications now are that in the new
Congress there will be 145 Republi
cans and 145 Democrats. In the pres.
ent Congress there are 104 Rep lbficans
to 153 Democrats. This shows a Re.
publican nekcain of 73. All the States
.hare elected that are to elect in 1876.
COX TEADICTOE YDIE HARD.
; Every dispatch, no matter who from,
that asserted a Republican1 triumph, for
the past two days, has been immediately
contradicted bv aomo Tildenite ! To a
certain extent this has caused Demo
crats to pat up money on Tiiden, and
of course they're pinched in consequence

Florida beVived they had. a majority

VERY CLOSE.
The dispatches so far received indi
cate a very close vote. Had there been
no reign of terror, inaugurated and car
ried to the bitter end by Democrats, in
the South, we should now be rejoicing
in the election of Hayes and Whee'er
by an overwhelming vote ; but even as
it now stands, we have strong hoes
that the Republican ticket is victorious.
Last night the telegraph told us tha'
Florida had gone Republican by 1.S00
and that the Democrats, aware of tht
fact, were trying to ditch trains so tha'
they might secure and destroy the eh c
tion returns. Telegtams further state
tha!. righting had commenced, and i
was thought the "Governor' would hat
to cab for Government aid to quell the
disturbance. News a'o comw t a
terrible time in Xew Orltsjiu ai:d in
Georgia. Whether these reports are
true or not, remains to oe seen, it we
are to judge by threat made by South
ern Congressmen and others, that no
Southern Stale w.uld lie jermitted to
cast its electoral vote for the Repnb i
can candidates that such an event
wou'd be prevented at any and ad cost
rwe m iit beiieve that great outrages
were perpetrated in Louisana, South
Caro'ina and Florida. Of one thing
be assured, it will be next to an impossi-
bility to convince we 1 informed people j in it and love it, are determined that

The jury in the case of Kay Xiel,
about 10
'clock Thursday night,
brought in a verdict of "guilty of
murder in the firrt . degree." The
prisoner did not seem to be greatly ef

commenced on Wednesday, attracted a
full house, quite an attendauceot ladies
being secured. The prosecution was
assisted by Judges Powell and
Humphrey ; Messrs. Weatherfbrd, P.
M. Miller and J. G. Whitney were re

had a fair, square, impartial trial.
