In Indianapolis, the home of Presi dent Harrison, the Democratic gain is estimated to be twenty five i per cent; at Newark, N. J., fifteen I per cent, aud at Na'aviUe thirty per cent. t In New York the election ot Mr. Flower seems to be virtually con ceded. Indeed Kepublicans are directing tbeir efforts chiefly to the securing of the Legislature. In Massachusetts and Ohio the Republican managers have ordered tbe discontinuance of joint debates sad are inaugurating the still hunt process of electioneering.

Tne doubtful and timorous reply, "Foggy and uncertain;" and the despalring'give no reeponce but the quiver of coward lips No man can say that there are no cloods In our aky, no dangers in our path, bat darkness brings out tbe stars, and danger brings into play tbe manhood of a people. If the discontent with the present condition of the country was con fined to a faction, it might lead to the disruption of tbe party in which it exists, bat when the whole party shouts its shibboleth of Reform it thrill along the lines and arouses every resolote spirit In its ranks.

Tbe Washington Post ia an ex cellent paper so honorable and fair la its dealings as to have inspired the respect and confidence of the public. For this rea.on we regret to see in ita columns an article under tbe caption, "Jeff Davis Raiment." It Is the repetition of the old story that Jefferson Davis was captured while attempting to escape dis erased as an old woman. I 1 he ! story was never credited by those who knew the character of Mr. Davis, and when he gave it his positive denial it should have been dismissed as the production of a Munchausen. It is no more en- titled to credit than the Btory of the 1 Uoly Coat lately palmed off on the ; peasantry of Europe.

Plan well ahead cf time for the Fair. Select and save something nice for it whenever you have the opportunity and more than that put forth extra effort and make something purposely for it. This has been a splendid year for both the city and country and with the help of each one who made exhibits at the last Fair, augmented by the help of their neighbors whom by a few words they can induce to do likewise at the next Fair, the exhibition can be made even more of a surprise to the visitors than the proceeding ones, i Every man ar.d woman to the work I and keep the ma"ter inovin.

The Haleigh correspondent of the Charlotte Chronicle in his news budget, of the 4th inst.,s8ys: "The vocal honors of the entire festival, were borne off by Misa Nellie Waddell, of Smithfield." I lso admired her singing very much, but not exclusively, not detrimentally to all others- This sweeping assertion in print will, gratuitously and un justly, pain the feeling of the many excellent soloists and part singers, male and female, as well aa of the membera of tho worthy chorua: and tends to chill ardor and ao cripple North Carolina muai. ai festivals ia the tuture. if this wru.-r found nothing to admire in the vocaiiam of any one of the others he ought to have followed Burns' advice: "Gently scan your brother man, And gentler eiBter woman; And when you thins they re ROing wrong, To hold your p-;RCt) is human." But he seems to be animated by thia parody on the forgoing advice: 1 "Keenly scan your brother maD, 3 And keener eister woman; 3 And when you wish to have them wrong, 4 Tumble on them like a brick wall, and so crush all the spirit of self improvement, emulation and even love of life clean out of ihem, that'H crudely, rudely hucaun." That fourth line is not poetically rhythmical, but it reaches the point all the same. The quality of musical com positions selected and the renditions of them by the several performers, are similar to tho quality, cooking and serving up of dinner table viands, and yet who would think of compiriiiu ca.r, f,nh. Diet's, vegetables, pastries, ft . . l'.h one n, other V eitch is good or Lienor ui i'.e.i, su.l ortf-srable only in i w oofu -. : w.'.'i J .;T. tent t-picurj-ati li-.i--i.-- ' - :J'.!. ::- tr-.e br' -j ra ts :e i f rV-r ; t h- '-'if .-":to;r.o.: .'a-.(:' of ' me oritono. :c;;-t:-. r xvitti tht-lyrio. ; the 1-Lih-.-: an .1 ohv- Titles, fiil of pv-u-j ii.r ;: of m-iv r.'-.i-; of tscoiiDCC?, ii.-o.:rdi); to in.tividu:il selection, cou ' c-'p'.iorj and rendiiiju of each peiform j t-r.

W'.dieSi i a histi ionic I inger of rare end cb-irming vivacity , who excels in the expression of delicate hades of feeling, not only muxicaily. but through facial expression, speaking eye, mobile lip, graceful -posing and fascinating gesture; and in apt illustra tion of the axiom "True art is to con ceal art." Her intonatioh and enuncia tion are both excellent; her coloratura is delivered in exquisite purity and evenness, and, seemingly, without the slightest effort. In brief, her pearly trills, runs and fioriture seemed perfect. Miss Marian KadclilT is a lyric singer of tbe best type. She has a rich, full volumed voice and a self-possessed manner of using it that wins at once. Her rendition of "The Angels' Sere nade" was a fine difplay of her virtuosity and truo musicianly ability. The characteristics of her delivery of this chaste end famous cornpocition. were puro emission of voice, direct attack of tones, correct phrasing. smooth vocrt.izition, heavenly expres sion and to'ri! freedom from tremolo. She has neither mannerisms nor affec tation; sr.d has a fine stae presence and distinct enunciation. Now, can two such fine models of distinctly different sty les of singing be compared, or can one tak9 '"all the yocal honors" from, and. therefore, obliterate the other r No ! No ! No ! Then let common sense rule in ail musical rr.atters and most essuredly common fairness will thrive. Very respectfully, W. H. NEA.VE. Salisbury Speciil Correspondent State Chronicle.
