In sacrificing C'eveland to Hewitt he has also sacrificed Hewitt to Har rison. We think that the Democrats have been left in control of the House of Representatives, although it has been a close shave. There will not be many to spare. The World claims six majority and the Herald gives us but two, with one labor vote. Nu merically the delegation from this State is unchanged. We nave lost one and gained one. Tlie New York Herald has found a mare's nest. It cites numerous reasons for the Democratic defeat, some of which are very remotely connected witjh the case. Its most prowerf ul argument, however is on the tariff question and there we must confess that it carries a level head. It says: The Democrats were beaten main 1 v because thev undertook in aPresi-- the people about which tney naa avoided instructing the people in fVio nrAvinis vears. That was to rlrill thRir recruits in the face of the 4V .w v l Tt. was this aerainst which the Herald took the liberty to warn iL? I.! J 1 them a year ago, and for this kindly to we gSt only curses and im- pertinent rebuKe. Cleveland is, if possible, more rrirtrirms in dp feat tli an he was in vicvory. He says, what is very true, J.V. that the result of the election isnot, fnr- Mm a np.rsonal defeat. He said J, V s this to a Herald representative: whaT cause FI attdbute 'our Tossof IV l W 1 I 1 lK I 111?VL1L 1 1 Uillil t v. v wSEnld Kav" and I do not know, the President laughed quietly 'that, it was inainlv because the other nartv had the most votes Your remark when you entered the room indicates that you regard me a indifferent to the result. 1 - am nnt. indifferent. I look uoon the situation from a practical and com mon sense standpoint. It is not a personal matter. It is not proper to uMPnk rf it. either as mv victory or as mv defeat. It was a contest be tweem two great parties battling for the sunrcmacv of certain well iiefmpri nrincinles. One nartv has won nn rl the other has lost that is all there is to it."

That is true, but the votes for candidates for Con- gress are cast by one and the same ticket, and it is the duty and right of the supervisors to see those bear ing the name of the Congressional candidate canvassed and this is the fir8t thing to be done, and when can- vassingxue umiuis tor uKla -u" will necessarily see whether the bal' lot is a Republican or Democratic ! ballot, and in this wjiy will know how many votes each of our Repub- lican electors win ue cihiucu w The Dispatch took the matter up promptly and said very properly: "It ; is in effect a violation of an act "of Congress and of the Federal Con' atitntion for anv Federal official to try to inspect the ballots for electors of President and Vice-President ;yet Mahone not only countenances this irross wronir, but advises his super visors to count the Congressional ballots so that they ioill necessarily see1 the ballots for President, which flip law and the Constitution forbid them to see." The game of intinii dation was thus attempted in the Old Dominion as well as in North Carolina. The Raleigh Xcws and Observer thinks that Mahoqe and Kjivps are a rair to be hung up to gether by the heels in public esti atiou. Let them swing figuratively head down as a warning to all like :i.a... vrhn would untlertaKe to re- no.it. their inftunous aud outrageous practices.

Last Saturday about three hundred took advan- tage of the exceedingly low rates on the Seacoast road and spent a most enjoyable day by the seashore. We think this a move in the right direc tion, as the little ones should have one day qf rest and pleasure after le week of school. The fare for children will be 10 cents for the. round trip; the regular fare to-morrow will be 25 cents tq the Hum mocks and retqrw, Hurrah for Pender ! Johnson is elected to the House and Strinefield will be Register of Deeds. Three townships were thrown out. In Lincoln, there were four more ballots in the box than there were registered voters.

Jacobi's HAw Depot, t The Week of Prayer. We have already published the programme for the Week of Prayer, to be observed every day next week, except Sunday, when there will be no services on that day in the Asso ciation Rooms. The various minis ters of the city have been requested to preach special sermons to young men. The services on Friday night, the 16th inst., will be specially in- eresting. .On that occasion Rev. Robert Strange will deliver a lecture in the Association Rooms. Cora Van Tassel. The advice given so generously by us .yesterday afternoon was adopted and a large and delighted audience ast night greeted Cora Van Tassel and her excellent troupe. "Sweet Sixteen" was presented and most charmingly was it rendered by the vivacious little actress with her ex cellent support. "Sweet Sixteen" is very pleasant 3-act comedy and one or the best tnat nas oeen pre aii -a i J i. 1 1 sented here in vears. Mr. Edwin Yonnsr. an old favorite, received a hearty welcome and he responded n by giving an excellent rendition of his cast. Mr. Wordsworth, another 1 'old-timer," is also on hand anl aided greatly in the "presentation of the piece last night. To-night "Fanchon" will be presented and there should be a good house then. McClammy's Majority. Maj. McClammy has done nobly. His majority over his competitor, Mr. W. S. O'tJ. ttobinson, who is probably the brainiest man the Re publicans have in the Third Dis trict, is about 3,800. The canvass was conducted in a decidedly decent and gentlemanly manner. It was one of issues and not of personalities. No mud was flung and we have a softer spot in our regard for Mr. Robinson than we had formerly. We cannot forget the contrast be tween him and Dockery when they spoke together at Burgaw during the earlier days of the campaign, when Mr. Robinson, like a gentle man, repudiated Dockery's. dirty references to Mrs. Cleveland and stated, in effect, that if he could not be eleeted without a resort to 3uch means he did not want to be elected at all. Maj. McClammy and Mr. Robinson have demonstrated the fact that filch is not politics al though politics may sometimes be filthy. Maj. McClammy's exact majority, ascertained since the above was written, is 3,870. He has certainly held up his end of the log most hand" somely. Wilmington District. Methodist E.
