IVOne of the notable results of the late election, is the return of Gen. N. P. Banks, now at the age of 72 years, to a seat In the House of Representa­ tives. over wblch it the close of one of the longest and most memoriable con- contests In tbe blstery of the Nation, he was elected to preside thirty-two ynansfO. Since that time he has been repeatedly elected to Congress has been elected three times Governor has boon a General of Volunteers in the late war and,a collector et Internal Stovenne. ; IV The Detroit New$, In the coarse of comments on tbe "late un­ pleasantness," says: "It was tbe Speight of the united North that crashed Cleveland and the Demo­ cratic party. It was the supplement of Appomattox. The Democracy had liken desperate ohances in the play for empire, and was depending on the solid South and a single trick, New York. Its role was the rule of the Booth, which depended upon It to re­ gain the power It bad lost by tbe •word. It had no assured position in any Northern State, not even In New York, where Its only obanee depended on tbe mob of one great city. It has, unfortunately for the noble principles which it represented, remained 'a Southern party, and It has new shared tbe fate of the confederacy, with whose elements it has been In alliance. There were those who thought Napol­ eon had a chance after Waterloo, and there are Democrats who will bope for a revival of their party." Democratic Despontfeney.

He says: •Joe Blackburn said in a speech at Winchester tbe other night--just be­ fore the battle--that 'if tbe Democrats lose this battle the youngest boy who alts nnder tbe sound of my voice will be an old gray-headed man before the Democrats get into power again.' In the light ofthis prophesy the despair of the Democrats is something pa ^ if:®" ^ey gaze into tbe future with hollow eyes, with gaunt and •®"cl*ted countenances, ana out of its blackne** of darkness no single ray of light appears to guide them to sheU **ny, I think, will pass away, while others will put on sackcloth and ttuMi ®M Waate to Kaap his OflM, Another Does Mot.

Bros, for Fine Shoes, in town. The election if Harrison and Mor­ ton will put an end forever and for­ ever to the rule of tbe Soutb on horse* back. It will restore the control of tbe government to the party that saved the Union, and tbe principles consecrated by the blood shed on tbe battlefield. Especially, and beyond dispute these points are settled; American ideas will direct the gov­ ernment; American honor will be maintained and American interests defended. The American system of protection to domestic Industry is fortified as the permanent, well deflued policy of the Nation. No partisan audaoity, no conceit of wOrd-wise school men will dare assail It again In this decade. The spectre of free trade is buried out of the sight of men, the labor and capital, enterprise and developement can run their race with safety and as­ surance against abnormal disturbance. The disgraoeful conspiracy by which tbe very men who took up arms sgalnst the nation's life have been set up over those who defended, it and have been encouraged to grasp by In- trigue what they lost in war, has been rebuked and shattered. We do not say that the Democratic party Is dead, but It Is freed from the despotism of the Bourbons who shall turn no more. If It is ever to be in force in nationl politics, it must seek new leaders, not among accidents like Cleveland, or rebels of any type, or "peanut politicians" like Hill of New York, but among men wbo are in con­ tact with public sentiment and the matoh of events. Tbe putrid carcass of tbe Mill's Bill is effectually Ciis j into tbe fire to be burned up and Its ashes scattered to the winds, Southworth and Democracy. EDITOB PLAINDBALER:--In looking over the Sentinel of the 8tb Inst., I found the following: "In tbe four cornered fight for the Legislature con­ siderable feeling was shown. Gard­ ner S. Soutbwortb's friends scratching Partridge and plumping In tbe votes for him, which, together with quite s large democratic vote sent him way ahead of every one." 1 would infer from the above that it was his hunger for, and bis anticipation of, that "quite large Democratic vote" that promoted our friend Southworth, pre­ vious to the late election to ignore a communication sent to the Sentinel for publication, wherein a patriotic old Irishman strongly appealed to his countrymen In McHenry county and elsewhere, to renounce at once and forever their allegiance to the party of free trade, and transfer it to tbe party of freedom, progress, equality, and good wages, and thereby show their good sense and gratitude to that party that works hardest to give them bread. If our friend S. shows as much pusillanimity in tbe Legislature when be gets there, as be bas in tbe matter referred to, he is not likely to make a very formidable antagonist for the Democrats of that honorable body to oontend with. Our Republican conventions, I think, should appoint none to our Legislative balls except men of personal and po­ litical independence as well as men of brains. Air IRISH BXPUBLXOA* Seneca, November 19th 1888- IVMiss Nina Webster and Mr, E. Thomas both of Cleveland, Ohio, are two very unhappy people just now. They were to be married, and so sure were they both that tbe Demo­ cratic candidate would carry the day, that tbe bride-elect agreed that if Mr. Cleveland was elected she would marry Mr. Thomas on Inauguration day. But in tbe gladness of their trusting Democratic hearts they also made a daring bluff that if Harrison were elected they would delay tbe ceremony feur years. C»«l? Zoko Boys: If a fellar would klime, be must use the erth he iz trying to git away frum. for a base of operations., Tbe funny thing to me iz that a fel­ lar who don't care for music here dotes on bavin*. a golden harp In heven. Truth looks beet when in company with falsehood, ez vice shows us tbe beauty of virtue. Genteel Intelligent kussidness Is bet­ ter nur ignurant, dirty-sblrted piety.

Don't worry about gloryfyln God, fur you kant do mucb fur film no how; but keep an eye on your obligation to" your feilar man. When you are rite you needent pray.
