President Cleveland went to home in Buffalo and voted the straight Democratic ticket in the Ninth Ward. A dispatch from Buffalo says: “The President arrived by special train on the Lehigh Valley Railway. He was accompanied by Wilson S. Bissell, his late law partner, A W. Stedman, chief engineer of the road, and John M. Jeter, Doorkeeper of the CapitoL The President is looking finely, and the party played a pleasant game of ‘ Sixtysix’ from Hornellsville to Buffalo. All along the line of travel large crowds gathered, and at Darien fireworks were shot off, but the train did not stew. Only moderate time was made on the last part of the route. At the Buffalo depot the President was met by a crowd, but no demonstration was inade. ” Governor Pierce, of Dakota, has made his annual report to the Secretary of the Interior, showing the material progress of that Territory during the last year. The population of the Territory is now 416,000, as against 137,180 when the Federal census was taken in 1880. The year has been a very prosperous one for the Territory; not only have the crops been excellent, but the prices commanded have been very much in advance of those realized a year ago. The result is a buoyancy of feeling on the part of the people most encouraging and reassuring. On the whole the farmers were never so prosperous as at present. The Federal Court at Indianapolis has affirmed the legality of $1,075,000 in railroad aid bonds issued by the city of Evansville. The funeral of Gen. McClellan was held in the Madison Square Presbyterian Church in New York. A few flowers at the altar were the only emblems of mourning. The remains were escorted to the church by the Loyal Legion and the survivors of Meagher’s brigade, but no military display was permitted. Gens. Hancock, McCook, Joseph E. Johnton, and Fitz John Porter were among the pallbearers. A special train conveyed the cortege to Trenton. A proclamation designating November 26 a day of public thanksgiving has been issued by President Cleveland. The President has appointed Owen T. Rouse, of Missouri, to be United States Attorney for the Territory of Arizona. The elevators in Chicago hold 13,177,691 bushels of wheat, and the quantity in sight throughout the country is reported at 51,702,255 bushels. Edward Hanlan, the oarsman, indignantly denies that he made overtures, to Teemer to sell the race between them. Hanlan has had published three letters written by Teemer, the import of which is that Teemer was ready and willing to “sell out.” In a note dated September 2, Teemer writes: “If you are in no condition I will do anything you ask me to do to make you win the race.” It is not true that Mr. John Kelly, of New York, has had a serious relapse. He is able to attend to business, and intends to visit Florida and Mexico during the winter.
