Cincinnatti, Ohio, Nov. 5.-Speaker Carlisle is probably eleoted, but by a narrow margin. He claims a majority of from four to six hundred. The offi cial count begins today in the eight eounties composing this district. Un fortunately for those who are most anx ious to lm the nnai result, the oounties whose votes will decide the matter are almost inaccessible. Two of them have neither railroads nor tele graphs, but it is probable enough infor mation may be obtained during the night to furnish material for a decisive statement of the result. The opinion here is universal, that the cause of the suprisingly olose oontest lay in the fact that nearly all the democrats in the back oounties were unaware of any for mal opposition to Carlisle, and thou sand s of democrats stayed at home. Boone oounty whioh gives Car lisle about 500 majority, is demo cratic by at least 3,500, and this is a sample of the indifference. The 2,000 majority for Thoebe in 'Campbell and Kenton coon ties is due chiefly to a largo number of Knights of Labor in Coving ton and Newport. The chanoes this morning are deoidedly favorable to Car lisle. Tb Democrat! Galas la lltnaeta. 'St Paul, Nov. 5. The returns not received from all the oounties. Both parties cry fraud.

Kins of Israel. The leotu e was warm and clear in its portraiture of the ereat hero king, picturesque, and at times dramatic as it unfolded elaborately or in outline the crowding adventures of his marvelous history. It oooupied one hour and a half and was listened' to with remarkable attention considering its length and the fact that it was elesely read. Today at 12:24J-26J p. m. occurred the strongest earthquake shocx our com munity has felt sinoe the memorable 31st of August.

John Willoughby, a frugal old col ored man, of Wadesboro, had accu mulated quite a sum of money whioh he kept close in a box nailed to the wall inaide his cabin. By dint of hard labor and his saving habits, whioh had bf en practiced for years, he had made of that box a .veritable little bank, and so leeure was 'that box under look and key, that he was wont to speak of it as bis ' strong box, 'land little dreamed that it Over was to be opened or manipulated except by himself. But, on getting up last Sunday; morning, John, to his amassment, found that his "strong box had been dislodged from the wall and carried off. Search was instituted, and not far from his yard was found the wreck of his strong box," which had been rifled and left, the rogue in his haste having also left about two dollars in silver scattered on the ground. John made oath before a magistrate that the amount of money stored in the box, aid which the robber carried away, excepting the change left on the ground, waa yis.oos. John oners a reward of $100: tor the apprehension of the thief who : is supposed to be one Andrew Ash, colored, whom John had doinc some work on Saturday and paid off at night, and he thinks that Andrew watched when he got the money with whioh to pay him front the ' 'strong box.?' At any rate Andrew had dis appeared next morning and had not been seen at last accounts. Grand XVedae r Good Template.

Such a purchase is necessarily one of the winter or early spring, arc the purchaser generally congratulate himself that he has escaped wintoxinc the fowls and has saved tho feed bill o comparatively dull months in egg-pro duo tion i This is all true enough, but we still believe that purchasing fowls is more advantageously done in the fall than at any other time. True, there is a saving in buying I later, but at that season the breeder has sold the largest part of the fowls he ' intends to dispose t)f that season, and naturally the early buyers have had their piok of the iarges number, and have selected the best. There may be plenty of good fowls still left: but the dealer, who was willing to shade his prices when he had a large surplul in the early fall, will he much more exacting when but few are left So that practically the late buyer sayes nothing. Then, too, the breeder who has a large Btook on hand till nearly spring canoot give them all the individ ual oare he would like to bestow during the cold season. Thus it happens that the trio purchased late in the season have not, as a rule, received as good otre, and are not in as good condition for the spring campaign, as if they had been itll the time in the hands of their new owner, who naturally would have given them extra attention, for "a new broom sweeps clean." On the other hand! it is muoh better for the breeder to sell early, for the reason already stated j that he can )better care for those that remain on hand. In fact. " early alee are for the interest of both bujer and seller. 8 i Baektlae Jiaeear Ralve. The s Best ftaite in the world tor Cuts Brulace, Bona, Ulcera, HaJt Rheum, rar Sore, .
