Sectionalism is dead. They die hard: bat tliev die. Tue Democrat s arc full of joy. The “books” will be examined. The Republican party has gono, Good-by, dear Gudgel, good-by 1 The fraud of 1870 has been avenged. _ Calkins, “don’t ask me how but 11* it." ■ Tike county fairly covered herself with glory. The Rads haven’t a plank left, to ataud upon. Indiana gives 8,000 plurality on State officers. Butler’s nose, as well as his eye, is now out of joint. Toe top of the morning to you, Mr. President Cleveland. From the 4th of March next it will lie an kgucst government. Indiana gives 10,000 majority on Congressional candidates. The days of the land-grabbers and treasury pilferers have ended. Marion county Democrats made a dean sweep, electing everything. Daniel W. Voobhees is the name Of the next Senator from Indiana. Benny Hakkison, good-by. The Legislature is Dcmgeratio for years to come. It is no longer a Solid South. That Radical battle cry has lost its significance. __ There has been 78,576,724 acres of land granted in the interested of education. __ It was the cry of the poor against unjust legislation in favor of the millionaire. Now, boys, be prudent. Don’t “paint the town red,” but give it a conservative pink. Marshal P. Wilder estimates the fruit crop of the country to be worth $140,000,000. The richest farmer in Wisconsin is William Miller. His estate is valued at_$l,000,000. New York spoke well, but the uext time 6he will oblige us by speaking a little louder. The country is tired of having that rotten garment, the bloody shirt, flaunted over it. It will be a .pure administration. It will be an administration in the interest of the people. Or course the Democrats are wild with delighf. Why should they not be ? It is a famous victory. Who can stand before the people when they rise in their majesty to vindicate honest Government? It will be a just and equitable tariff revision and the elimination of the high taxation of the war period. The broom of Cleveland, is a large One aud stiff one aud be will nse it with cleansing vigor. There will be a general sweep. $ Republicans are not speaking veryhighly just now of St. John aud Dr. Burchard. They are denounced as “a couple of cranks."

We want do 1870 business in any shape; nor will we have it, gcutlomeit. A fair ballot aud a fair count, or a free light all around.; The Vanderbilts, Goulds, Fields, aud other monopolists of New York do not own and will not ran the American Government, in the future. Connecticut, a' manufacturing State joined the Democratic cohimu for Cleveland. New Jersey, with l*r manufactories, has gone the same way. _ Cleveland’s own ward denied the llalpin and other scandals in thunder tones. It showed up a tremendous Democratic gain 1 Erie conaty turned up with 2400 Democratic increase. ) Gen. Grant did not vote for Blaine. When asked why, he replied: “I did net register.” A great many promi nent New York Republicans did register, however, and voted for Cleveland.

mi Republicans nan rest caav in their litjje lmds. The Democrats wRl treat; them well. The Democrats are not going tgtpay the rebel debt, pay tor t he elutes, or pe tudou rebel soldiem. But we are going to examine those books. It now appears that the Democrats of Illinois have elected a majority of the legislature. This is especially important if true, as.it retires Gen. Johu A. Logan and gives the senate a Democrat in theUnited States senate from Illinois the first since Stepheu A. Donbas died.

Mit. Sbrodk will administer the affairs of the Sheriffs office fbr the next two years, notwithstanding the great effort s of the Republican bosses to defeat him. Their work was of no avail. Mr. Skrodo ran ahead of the ticket, which is a deserved compliment. lie will make a good officer. Of the wheat imported iuto Great Britain for seven mouths in 1834 the United States furnished 13,873,980, a little over half, India less than ouc sixth, Russia about one-tenth, Australis, less than one-tenth; 876,057,000 pounds of flour were imported in the sevou mouths; of this the United States sent 599,903,800 pounds. Tins Cincinnati Post, a strictly independent paper, lias the following resume of the. election: The only States in the North to show an increased Republican plu- • rality or majority are California, Colorado, Maine, Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, and Pennsylvania. In these the increase is very trifling, save in Maine and Ohio. The main Rcpubiican increase is on the Pacific slope, where Blaine was exceptionally strong on account of liis auti-ehiuese record, and where the Democrats voluntarily allowed the campaign to go by default, even kdoping their leader in that section. Gen. Itosecraua, in the East until the very day of the election. On tliciotker hand the Democrats have made some astonishing gains in Connecticut, Indian, New York, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin. The Democratic gains in some of these States1 is phcpontenal. In New York it is over 20,000, in Illiuois over 20,000, in Iowa over 63,000, in Indiana over 14,000, in Kansas nearly 12,000, iu Massachusetts almost 30,000, in Michigan over 50,000, and in Wisconsin about 20,000. This shows a tremendous deciiue of the strength of a once dominant and irresistible party. It is the more striking when the extraordinary measures and vast millions which are used by it iu the campaign are considered. Nor is the result much less striking on Congressmen. Notwithstandtliat the Democratic majority of the present house was secured by a tidal wave in an off year, the party has nearly maintained that majority, showing itself particularly strong In Iudiana, Michigan and Illinois, in the North the only where it placed its candidates squarely on the Carlisle tariff plank alike "in the State and Congressional platforms. T» Campaign Subscribers. All canmaign subscriptions will terminate with this issue, November 13, and will be discontinued at that time unless renewed. Those who have been pleased with the paper and desire to continue reading it should attend to this matter before that time, so that the paper may continue to them without interruption. Character in Shoes. [Troy (Standard.} “Yes, sir; they beat palmistry all hollow. Take yourself, for instance; in your shoe I see vacillation, irresolution, fickleness, a tendency toward negligence or evasion of unpleasaut duties, occasional spells of moroseness. Show me any persons foot covering after two month's wear, or often less than that, and I will tell yon that person’s character. If both heel aud sole are evenly worn level the wearer is clear headed, decisive, and resolute, a good business man, a valuable and trust-worthy employe, or excellent wife and mother. If the outside sole is cut through, the wearer, if a man, is inclined to be adventurous, unreliable, aud spasmodic in ail his acts; if a woman, she is predisposed to boldness and wayward tendencies. If the inside of the sole is cut through it indicates weakness and vacillation in a man and modesty in a woman. “A few months ago there came into my shop a stranger having a pair of shoes with the outside of the sole worn through and the toe somewhat cut away, while the hull was neatly as good as new. I said to my wife after He went away, ‘that man’s a sneak/ aud so he was. The very next day a boy* came up front the police stattou to get the shoes, and said the wearer had been arrested on a clear case of sneak-thieving. “A certain young man who had patronized me for two.years was keeping company with two girls, also customers of mine. 1 'noticed that one of them wore out her shoes on the outside of the solo first, while the other stepped squarely and wore down both shoes alike. I’ve always had a liking for the young fellow, and knowing that ho was wavering between the two girls, I took him aside one day and showed him the shoes of his llames and told him what I have told you. The result, was that he married the square stepper aud was happy, while the other girl disgraced herself.

can also tell some tiling of a person's tendencies by the size of big shoe, the breadth of tbc sole, the condition of the buttons or strings, the amount of wear on tho toe, the condition of the lining, etc. I would not advise a friend to marry a girl who squeezes a number four loot in a number two shoe, for such a one is apt to prove vain, affected and frivolous. “Do I believe that character can be molded by keeping the shoes properly soled and heeled? Well,it lias its influence. The gait of a person is as closely connected with his disposition as the expression of his countenance, though not so easily re ad by most persons, To continue the wearing of a shoe which is run over badly only tends to confirm the habit in the person's walk. “Your job is done, sir; sorry I couldn’t give you a better character, but truth is troth, and I never flatter."
