I In the nresence of a large congrega tion, Saturday afternoon, twenty-six persons were baptised by immersion at the Baptist churcn. The excitement over the election is subsiding somewhat. The Democratic victory is net now the sole ana oniy topic of conversation.

And he couldn't save his political bacon with a stout rope around the porker. Those who do not read newspapers often get left and deserve their fate. The Dallas Eagle says : "We under stand that some people, who do not take any newspapers, thought that the election came off Thursday instead ; of Tuesday, and consequently lost their votes." j The newspapers of the State are call ing upon the people to come to the immediate! relief-.of -the Oxford Orphan Asylum.
