The outcome of last Tuesday’s elec-
tion is known, as to tho generrl result, though there are some doubts as to minor details, but so far as definitely known at this writing, Garfield and Arthur are certain to receive 210 electoral votes, with California, Oregon and Nevada in doubt and claimed by both parties, leaving the certain electoral vote for Hancock and English at 147.

The total number of votes polled in this county at tho October election was 4,523; al tho Presidential election, last Tuesday, the total vote was 5,517; allowing a decrease of six. TiiEitE are a great many opinions expressed as to what caused Democratic defeat, Tuesday, and the opinions of Iniana politicians are of interest in this connection. Here are u few expressions
j from them;
Wm. 11. English—"The desire of Hendricks to have an October election and the nomination of LandeJS.” Thomas A. Hendricks—"The nomination of Hancock and English, with a platform written by Watterson.” Jos. E. McDonald—“Wade Hampton sounded the di ath knell when he announced 138 votes from the solid South.” 0. 0. Stealey—' Ltnders was an unfortunate nomine.ion. He lo.t the Stateand that turned the tide against us.” General M. D. Munson—"The old man:
of the sea sunk us.”
Colonel Gilbert Shanklin—“The Nationals, envious cusses, made these bloody rents, hut our honor is intact.” Colonel Wm. A. Lowe—“Old man English purchasrd his mortgage on the party and sold it without 5 the equity of re-
demption.”
Dr. Minnick—“Tho Solid South was too much of a load to carry. Even Democrats were afraid to intrust them with
the whole power.”
Jim Rice—“The d—n fool who started
the |32l) business.”
Judge Scott—“I think it was mainly due to the fact that the majority voted
for tho other man.”
John C. Shoemaker—“Bill English was enough to kill any party. They gave him an execution at Cincinnati aud
he sold tho party out under it.” Governor Williams—"Siving
ion with the same old crack in it was what did it. The thing could not be
properly saved without the crack.”

TitnisDAY night the Republicans of this city jollified over the result of the election. The occasion was one of noise —and such a noise as could only Vie made with large lungs, horns, horse-fiddles, hells aud other like contrivances. Flags were Hying, drums beating, men yelling, and the streets were lined with jubilant Republicans, all aiding and assisting, to tho best of their ability, to make the jollification one long to be remembered by themselves and their loss fortunate neighbors who sulfered defeat
at Tuesday's election.
Uapt. Bates and his wife, formerly the giants of Barnum’s show, recently made the overland journey from San Francisco. They are each nearly eight feet long, and the sleeping car berths are only six. In order to secure a comfortable bed. they took the opposite section connected tho upper berths with an adjustable piece, and laid themselves crosswise of the car, the other passengers kindly consenting to the partial obstruct-
ior of the passage at night.

Tho Rev. Dr. Cuylur says, in the Congregationalist. that a vital question is the small attendance at religious services. "It requires but half aa eye to discover alarming fact that this attendance is steadily falling off, both in the city and in the country, both at the East and in the West. Forty years ago it was claimed that one-ha!f of the population of tho city of New York were cither wholly or partially connected with some Protestant congregation. Now only one-fourth ol the population are ever seen seen in any Protestant place of worship.” Dr. Cuyler adds that, on the first Sunday in Oct. the fifteen most popular churches in ths city capable of seating 20,1X10 persons, hold only 10,500. Justice Smith said, on opening his court at Connorsville, Tonn.: "William Henry Smith is arraigned for assaulting his lather.” The magistrate had on the previous day knocked his father down with a club, and it was himself that he was now arraigning. He continued. “The evidence is cor.clu'ive, and I’m not sure but I ought to send myself to jail for ten days. But. as this is my first offence, and I certainly had a good deal of provocation, I will simply impose a fine of ten dollars.”

The Alvin Joslin Comedy Company is billed to appear at Opera House, this city, November 10, and tickets are now on sale at Btattin’s. The Cincinnati Enquirer, speaking of this troupe, says: “Fully two thousand five hundred people assembled within the walls o( Heuck’s elegant new Opera House last evening, the occasion being the opening night of the Alvin Joslin Combination, with Mr. Charles L. Davis as hero. If almost continuous applause ana hearty laughter amounts to anything in the way of judging of the success of a play, then was Alvin Joslin a most decided hit last night. Mr. Davis’s impersonation of the old Yankee funner is a natural creation, his dialect being excellent, and also his make-up, and we note most decided improvement in his acting over last S'-nson, until now we can pionounco him a most clever old man character actor. The play is too well known to require description, while it is brimful of humor and comical situations. It is superbly mounted, the "Pier Scene” being fine. The company are equal to their tasks. Miss Burnett is handsome, a good dresser and a rapa hie actress, and Miss Annie Wood, as Mrs. Joslin, proved a capital old woman. Of the gentlemen, Mr. 1. N. Biers, as Bob Ford, the villain of the play, impressed favorably, and the Messrs. Adrian, Drake. Stanley and Willard wore favorites with the audience. Mr. Davis was repeatedly called before the cur-
tain.
