ETJITORIAL MEWS NOTES.
Senator O. P. Morton of Indiana
is dead. A democrat most probably
Hon. Dan. Voorhees will occupy "his
place.
We are without full returns from
the elections held on Tuesday, but
hare heard enough to show that New
York; New Jersey and Pennsylvania
have gene Democratic. Hurrah !
It is with profound sorrow that
we chronicle the death of Gen. N. B.
Forest, one of the foremost leaders of
t he Confederates,during the late war.
As long as chivalry and heroism are
admired, so Iqng wiU , Gen. Forest s
memory lire.
Our Representative Hon. A. II.
Waddell is Chairman of an important
Committee that of Post Offices and
Post Roads We may now hope ibr
increased mail facilities, tet - the
people iend up petitions and they
will have attention
InCon4reas, a great many bills
have been introduced. 1 Soeiie of ttrm
are of the ntmeet importance, partic--vlarly

The Abysinians do not mince
ten when they go to war they mince
their antaigonista. - la a recent battle
with Meulek, the latter lost 9JW0
men in" killed and wounded, ft is
said that the King of Abyaima with
130,000 troops is on the point of
invading Egypt. The Khedtre will
likely need all his troops at home.
Alter f-evero fighting, the Ruaaiaoa
have oomph-ted the investment of
Plevna. If reHef does not reach 0
man Pasha from without, the fate of
is army is sealed. We may listen
for reports of sanguinary fighting
around Plevna, as an army is on the
march fr its relief! In Asia the
Russian, alt-r an obstinate conflict,
iucceeddd in driving the Turks from
their position around Eraeroum.
Muhkta Pasha, the Turkish comman
dr, was wounded. The end 5 seems
approaching. ' ,
