Illinois Election.

The returns have not yet been made throughout the State, but still there is I no hope left, as we luive before stated, for the Temperance cause. The Age of Steam, published at Vandalia, Ills., "ives the following:

We have the official returns from 45 counties •which show a majority against the Prohibitory Liquor Law of 1,629. The majority of the counties remain yet to bo heard from which will probably swell tho vote to

6,000.

As the returns

come in tho chance for Prohibition bocomes lesss favorable. The people have spoken!

Tho only recourse left is the rigid enforcement of the present licence law as it exists.

The last accounts current at Chicago, •are perplexing 60 counties heard from now foot up a majority of 30 for prohibition. There is strong apprehensions felt that tho law will bo defeated.

Western Odd Fellows' Magazine. Wo have received the 12th number of volume 3 of the above beautiful and interesting Magazine, edited by Geo. B. Jocelyn, and published at Centerville and Indianapolis, Indiana. This Magazine should be in the hands of every member of the Order in this State, at least, as it is replete with matter of interest to all good Odd Fellows. Bro. Jocelyn is an able and vigorous writer, a ripe scholar, a fine orator, and a firstrate Odd Fellow, and all articles from his pen, and they are many, bear tho impress of the man. The Magazine is published monthly, contains 384 pages —at 81,00 per annum 11 copies of the Magazine will be sent for 810, and 100 copies for 880. Address, George B. Jocelyn, Centerville, Indiana.

The Vote of the Tenth Legion of the Virginia Democracy. The glorious counties of Rockingham, Shenandoah and Page constitute the Tenth Legion of the Virginia Democracy, so celebrated in political annals. Thi? year they came in with their heaviest majorities for Wise. In order to show how onesided was the vote in those patriotic localities, we subjoin below the election returns for Governor:

Just what might be expected of a dis strict containing 6,500 voters, who are too patriotic to sustain a Newspaper.—

How was it in the more enlightened portions of the State? Rather different we ween!

Sutherland in Snspeme. Mr. S. is very much exercised, because we did not state whether we did not got any dinner, Pegtown, at or whisk)-—we are hardly able to say which—at least, something to raise internal caloric. Now, we do dislike to keep a friend in suspense, who takes such a lively interest in our welfare.— We will therefore say that we had as good a dinner there as we could desire —the first course consisting of roast chicken and buttered biscuit—the sec-

The Valley Blade, published and edited by Mr. St. Clair Sutherland, at

The story is utterly false, as the man has never boarded there—but the unsuspecting girl went with the scoundrels. She laid off her outside garments and ate some supper, in paying for

The girl imprudently drank the wine,! about

drank none of it herself. In less than ten minutes, she thinks she fell asleep, very much against her inclination.— When she awoke she found herself in a barn upon some hay, her person violated, her purse and rings gone, and her ear-rings actually torn out of her ears. She tried to get up, but was not able to rise to her feet. Soon after, Mrs. Childs and Mrs. Kimball came to the barn with a candle and looked at her, but said nothing and left her again in the dark. As soon as she recovered so as to be able to walk, she grooped her way out of the barn, aud went to a house in the neighborhood, when she told her story, and was properly cared for.

Warrants were immediately issued for the arrest of the three men, but it was ascertained that only Childs was in the place the others had gone off in some of the night trains^ ,^vClose watch was kept upon the house in hopes the two might return, and also to prevent the escape of Childs.' 'As they had notre-

Hope he'll have patience and keep his temper, for then ho shall have the whole story, otherwise we shall let him exercise a Yankee's privilege, and guess it out.

volver, each of the six barrels loaded and capped, and a large dirk knife, and in haste, left them where they fell.

The crowd was so infuriated at his escape, that in spite of the remonstrance of the more moderate, they commenced destroying the furniture, and in a short time carried everything in the house out in the street where they piled it into heaps, aud burned it to ashes. The windows were all knocked out, many of the doors battered down, and every article of crockery shivered to atoms. All day Sunday the town and the suburbs were scoured in search of Childs, without success.
