The St. Louis council has decided to allow steam whistles to be blown at 0 a. m., 12 m., and p. m., and when the engineer with a fiendish grin sets the shrill instrument of torture loose hereafter he will give it an extra twist simply because he can. The steam whistle in cities is a nuisance. The pretext that it supplies the place of a clock for many houses is a delusion.

majority of nearly 200,000 lor the Democratic' candidate for gov-raor of New York had been recorded, thinking men readily interpreted the meaning of the popular will and said that the result meant nothing permanent. Senator McDonald of this state was one of the first to recover from the astounding surprise of the occasion' and said that the remarkable change in party strength meant nothing beyond the occasion unless his party, the one which had victory thrnst upon it., gave a good account of its stewardship. He cautioned his party friends against a false view of the situation which in the joy of the moment they were too apt to take. Congress met in the following month and the Republican majority together with the Republican administration gave quick proof that they had appreciated the rebuke of the month before. The measures which the people of the country demanded should be made laws were taken up, and against the factious opposition of the
Democracy put upon the statute books. The municipal elections in the spring showed that a readjustment was progressing that the majorities of November were being wiped out. The elections in Ohio and Iowa in October were dampeners on Republican enthusiasm, however. The result was unexpected. Ohio was thought to be safely Republican, and Iowa as much so as ever before. So the losing of the one and the reduction of the majority in the other was not calculated to be cheering news to Republicans generally. There was no doubt in the minds of all who had carefully studied the causes that the prohibition extremists were responsible for the result. This fact, however, had not been made so manifestly plain by the time of the election Tuesday that the apathy following the October election was still prevailing in the Republican ranks. The sky now is cleared. The elections Tuesday were in all parts of the country, and the results cannot be attributed to local causes. The good work of the Republicans in congress, the inefficient and incompetent displays the Democracy in power in New Yor in Indiana and in other directions wherever it had an opportunity show its ability to misgovern, cast the die, and the good sense of the people, which is infallible, settled it that the Republican party must continue in control. There is a winter of
Democratic house of representatives to increase the disgust of all intelligent persons for that party as an organized institution. It is good that the spell of sickness siezed the Republican party when it did. The party is better for it as men are often better for a siege in the sick-bed, and a more encouraging outlook for next year's campaign could not be asked.

But this apart, the eastern fast mail service is mostly a matter of false pretenses. The New York papers, for instance, desire to circulate their edition early in the morning for several hundred miles around. They use their influence to have the department give the railroads sufficient money to run early trains out of the city. The amount of mail carried is not at all commensurate with the cost to the government, simply because the bulk of the mail from New York is deposited before evening, immediately after the closing of the business houses, and it is this mail that is supposed to be expedited. The trains should leave New York at night and not at four o'clock in the morning, and if they did so the letter written by the New York merchant to his customer in western Pennsylvania or New ork would reach its destination before the customer got around to business the following morning.

Bill Cook's Dog.
Karly County News.
One day last week our reporter overheard a colored man W. Cook, who lives some five miles below Blakely, telling a merchant in this place that he had the best dog in the state. He said it was worth fifteen bales of low middling cotton. In proof cf this he asserted that the dog had 4reed 350 coons this fall, all of which were captured by Bill, the dog not lying in a single instance. Bill says he has carried home 179 fox squirrels as a remembrance of his industrious hound. Fourteen deer's horn adorn Bill's residence, all on account of the sagacity of his unerring purp. Twenty-three wild turkeys have gobbled their last time, all because Bill's faithful longeared animal discovered their feeding place. One hundred and ninety-three 'possums have been carved lor Bill's Sunday dinners owing to their inability to hide from this wonderful dog. Cat squirrels innumerable attest to his value as a trailer. Nineteen catamounts have made their last raids upon the farmyard, thus attesting to his remarkable fighting qualities.

Of this number it is very doubtful if 15,000 attend church on Sunday. The average attendance at Catholic and Protestant churches in Brooklyn on Sunday is about 80,000. There is a great popular mistake about Brooklyn. It is not a chnrchgoing communitv. We are increasing in population at the rate of 20,000 a year, and have increase more than 100,000 in the last six years. In that time we have not built ten new institutions for the worship of God.

THE NOVEMBER MAGAZINES
The North American Review for November opens with a discussion of "Limited Suffrage in Rhode Island," from the pen of Senator Anthony, who of course defends the system. Dr. Norvin Green writes of "The Government and the Telegraph," and strangely enough does not favor government ownership. The Rev. David N. Utter examines anew John Brown of Osawatomie's claims to the great regard in which he has so long been held, and finds them groundless. "His principles," he says, were those of the Russian Nihilists—first make a clean sweep of the present civilization and let the future build what it can. Surely, such a man is not a proper hero for the youth of our country to worship, and we believe that as his true history, to" long concealed, becomes known admiration for him will
changed to disgust, and disgust into anger that we have been so Jong de-
n&
ceived." General Green B. Raum makes some "Suggestions in Regard to the Public Service" worth considering, and Dr. Hammond, as was to be expected, is severely handled for his paper in the August number on "Woman in Politics" by Lillie Devereux Blake, Nina Morais, Sara A. Underwood and Dr. Clemence S. Lozier. They make many unmistakable points against the good doctor. Mullock continues his "Conversation with a Solitary." Professor Balfour Stewart talks learnedly of "Solar Physics" and General John Newton gives accurate information about "Modern Explosives."
The November Atlantic presents its usual variety of literary and social articles. We specify some of the more noteworthy. The serials of F. Marion Crawford, George Parsons Lathrop and Henry James are continued. There are "Random Spanish Notes" by Charles Dudley Warner. Brooke Hereford discusses ably "The Trustworthiness of Hebrew Traditions," and Mr. O. W. Black wall has an interesting account of "The New Departure in Negro Life." Ralph Waldo Emerson's name is among the contributors. His paper upon "Ezra Ripley, D.D., will be read with interest.
The enterprising Domestic Monthly, which was doubled in size at so recent date as last May, came to us this
1
month with a still further addition to its number of pages, which it promise es to .keep filled as always with an interesting and valuable table of contents- Notwithstanding this important enlargement in the size of the Domestic, and the consequent increase in value as a family magazine, the publishers have kept its price of_ subscription at the singularly low price of one dollar a year, with patterns as a premium to every subscriber.
The Wheelman for November has for a frontispiece a fine engraving of the Columbus Bicycle prize club, a full description of which is given by Mr. Charles
E.
Pratt. Maurice Thompson
contributes a delightful literary essay on the Influence of Outdoor Life in Literary, in which he evinces a deep love for nature, and for poets and writers who draw their inspiration from nature. The other articles are also of a high character.
The Modern Age shows good taste in its selection from foreign literature The November number has transla tions from Russian, German and French. That from the first is a strik tale to be finished next month, en mg l_ titled "The Devil's Flirtation.
The Century for November is well up to the high standard of this, perhaps the best of magazines. There is not a page, article or line that one would care to omit freading. The illustrations for the number are unusually good.
No one ever tires of welcoming St. Nicholas. The November number is one of the best ever published

I hear thatg6nteel-looking younggentlemen who can appear in immaculate linen and dress suits, are in great de mand at the two operas, and Mapleson and Abbey are vying with each other in securing their acceptance of dead head tickets and regular attendance Since the days of Brown, of Grace church, the well-dressed young men whom he furnished at balls, parties etc., have had to shift for themselves, and it is about time that history should repeat itself and furnish bis successor How invaluable he would prove to Abbey or Mapleson, not to mention Mrs. Shoddy!

Sir Randall Roberts disappeared some weeks ago, going to Boston with the Wyndham company. He made one appearance there, since which nothing has been heard of him here abouts. I hear something about the sheriff and an arrest for an old claim &e., which shocks me, believing as I do that there is a divinity which doth hedge a title. If Sir Randell were only single! Married noblemen should keep away from these shores. We have family, position, wealth for the unmarried noblemen—when they don come too thick and are not too exacting in their demands for a dot, like Lord Beaufort, who wanted old man Flood to give $2,000,000 with his daughter Jennie, when the penurious father was willing only to shell out a little $1,000,000. Only one million for a real live lord!
It is surprising that Miss Ellen Terry has not become a greater favorite in society. She is just as worthy of being asocial favorite as Irving. There can be no question of her abilities as an actress. Society should not be squeamish after Mrs. Langtry. It is true Miss Terry is not accompanied by her husband. He is probably detained at home by his professional engagements he is an actor by the name of Kelly. Mr. Irving and his wife have lived apart for some years—"incompatibility of temper."

Gentlemen: My father resides at Glover, Vt. He has been a great sufferer from Scrofula, and the inclosed letter will tell you what a marvelous effect
Ayers Sarsaparilla
has in his case. I thinlc his blood must bave contained the humor for at least ten years but it did not show, except in the form of a scrofulous sore on the wrist, until about five years ago. From a few spots which appeared at that time, it gradually spread stf aa to cover his entire body. I assure you he was terribly afflicted, and an objeotof pity, when he began using your medicine. Now, there are few men of his age who enjoy as .good health as he has. I could easily name fifty persons who would testify to the facta in his case.

Ayers Sarsaparilla.
Six months ago I was completely covered with a terrible humor and scrofulous sores.

My sufferings were great, rtud my life a burden. commenced the use of the SARSA.PABJt.LA in April last, and havo used it regularly since that time. My condition began to improve at onco. Tho sores havo all healed, and I*feol perfectly well in every respect—being now able to do a good day's work, although 73 years of ago. Many inquire what has wrought such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I liave here tried to tell you, AYER'S SARSAPARILLA. Glover, Vt., Oct. 21,1882. Yours gratefully,
