Hailn lUnncbcr Journal. Augusta, Friday Morn'g, April 25, 1879. The Michigan Victory. Fell reports of the late election in Mich igan confirm the news of a great republi can victory. Returns from nearly all the State show that Judge t’ampbell is elected by about 6000 majority. The republican can didates for Regents fall about 1500 votes behind the majority for Judge Campbell These totals, says the Detroit Post, fix the dimensions of the sterling republican vic tory which lias just been won in this State in the face of formidable odds. There is a net republican gain in GO counties of 35, 072, and a net democratic gain in six counties of 252, making the net republi can gain in the State 35,320. The Lansing Republican has made footings as to the re sult by Congressional districts, showing that in a national contest, and with a Fall campaign, the First is the only really doubtful district in the State. In 60 coun ties of the State—all from which full re ports have been obtained of the political status of the Supervisors elect—the repub licans have chosen 53* sujiervisors against 463 last year. This gain of 75, involving a change of 150 in relative strength, has placed 35 county boards under republican control, to 18 under opposition: 7 being tied. I-ost year, of the same counties, only 30 had republican boards, the oppo sition controlling 23, anti 7 being evenly divided. In the city governments, the re publicans have also made remarkable gains. Last year in 31 cities reported, ihere were only republican mayors elect ed this year, in 40 cities reported, the republicans have elected 24 mayors. These results have been attained in the face of 26,500 adverse majority, in a Spring election, when any formal ••campaign-’ was an impossibility, anti without ‘‘ral lies” or “documents.” It is no exagger ation to sa3" that the republican party of Michigan has faced and repulsed the most dangerous assault ever made upon its de fences, and never has won a more impor tant victory than this. The election of 1879 has thus demonstrated the vigor and invincibility of Michigan republicanism. It never approached a great national cam paign in better fighting condition or with fairer prospects. The Portland Transcript says: “The extent of the emigration movement now going on towards the Aroostook is shown hy the fact that one line of road has al ready sold to actual settlers four times the number of tickets sold iu any previous year. Those who have gone are practical working farmers who mean to build up and develop the country. The continued call for Mr. Elwell's Aroostook pamphlet, pnblished at this office, is another indica tion of the new interest taken iu this fer tile and promising region.” The silver bill as it passed the House provides for the redemption of the subsid iary silver coin when presented at any Sub-Treasury in sums of #_'n in lawful money of the I'nitcd States, that silver coin in sums not exceeding #20 shall be legal tender in payment of all public and private dues, anil that all coins of the United States of the face value of twenty five cents and under shall be received at any post office for postage stamps in sums not exceeding #:t. Judge Lowell rendered a decision Tues day in the case of f'apt. Peabody of the barque C. O. Whitmore who was tried for abusive treatment of his men. He re views the testimony at length, and agrees with the court and jury at San Francisco that the story told by Wright and the Frenchman is not to 1h> credited, and the verdict is that ('apt. Peabody is to receive a nominal sentence only. This is the manner in which a leading New York newspaper speaks of Mr. Til den’s efforts to secure the Presidential nomination: "Mr. Tilden is resolved to be the Presidential candidate of the dem ocratic party; and if time, money and the employment of the vilest practices known in politics are elements of success, he will resort to their use without stint in order to achieve his object.” I>avls and Logan. Senator Logan gave hi* judicial colleague a hard question or two to answer after the latter had got through hi* speech. Indeed Davis did not answer, and has not yet given an answer to the queries put to him, as the following account of the affair will show: General Logan asked if he understood hi* colleague aright in saying that the laws are now obeyed in all parts of the country. When Mr. Davis nodded assent lookers-on expected to hear some allusion to the recent election troubles iu the South, which would doubtless have provoked hot words from Southern Senators Senator Logan produced instead a copy of the annual report of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, from which he read a table showing that within the year the number of seizures of illicit di^til ieries among the M.ihsmksi of the population of the South was 1.25a. while among the 25,000.000 of the North they numbered only 07. The number of persons arrested iu the South for the vielatio.u of infernal revenue laws was 2.035. against 55 in the whole North. The number of officers killed while striv ing to execute the national law* was 5. while the number of wounded was 14. and all of these casualties had occurred in the South. It wa« amusing yyt rather painful to see the honorable Senator's benevolent purpose met in this sprit bv one of the parties for whose benefit lie had been working. The honorable Senator squirmed uneasily while Senator Lo gan repeated and summarized the results of the year’s work by the Internal Revenue Of fice. Senator Davis then replied with some im patience that there might be more whiskey thieves in the South than in the North; that was not one of the points he was discussing. “But.” repeated Senator Logan, “that re ply is not sufficient. 1 put it to mv colleague whether he can point to a single murder or the wounding of a single officer in the dis charge of his duty in the North.” Senator Davis wearily repeated that the point was not essential and gave it up. Senator Withers and Senator Gordon, each of whom had manifested a disposition to re ply Pi Senator laigan, thought better of it. The matter dropped, and with it the best part of Senator Davis’ speech. Jiulp' Davis' speech ill tin* Senate on the army appropriation hill was just like that of any other democrat. Xo one was ilisappointi'il at his taking his place w ith j the Bourbons, hut the attempt made hy j him to carry over the name and lame of Abraham Lincoln to the democratic party j was something the republicans did not ex pect. and very promptly resented. Political. Mr. Tilden’t friend* did not appear at the annual meeting of Tammany Hall. Monthly tAening, so that John Kelley’* crowd had thing* their own way. The greenbaekers, it is stated, have decid ed to vote with the democrat* for the political amendments on the legislative appropriation hill. Democratic paper* are hurrying hack to their ante-bellum position of servility and i sycophancy with humiliating alacrity. The I 'tica Observer already any* that it was “bru tal” for Senator ('handler to call Jefferson 1 Davis a double-dyed traitor, and that he was “a coarse Michigander” to do so. On the first Monday of June the people of Illinois will elect the whole force of Judge* of the (’ircuit Courts and five Justice* of the Supreme Court. There is some legislation pending in the General Vssetnbly, which may or may not he enacted, which may affect the election of those of the Circuit Judge*! who are to constitute the Appellate Court. In Cook county .Chicago) there are to he I elected five Judges of the Circuit and Court, that county has to elect, w itli other counties, one Justice of the Supreme Court. All Quy, which being interpreted means Mice the Angel, was married to (diaries Jamison, an inti rpreter, in San Francisco a i fortnight ago. The bridegroom had finished j up his future home w ith Chinese and Ameri- J can furniture. On the walls were hung a I number of large strips of red paper, on which 1 were stamped Chinese proverb* relating to, married life. hi a table in the fir>t room were lacquered trays, containing Chinese; dried fruits ami sweetmeats, while on other* were tiny cups for tea. There w ere also on the table. Chinese ornaments ami several w a- ter-pipes. One afternoon at o'clock, the chaperons conducted the bride to the rooms of her future husband, but before she crossed the threshold of the door they threw a heavy handkerchief over her head, and shut out everything from her sight. This they told her was to warn her that in en tering the married state *he wa* groping in the dark future. The bridal pair knelt before a small altar from which hung ancestral tab let*. and each offered a prayer, after which they went into the other room w here they seated themselves. One of the chaperons poured tea into two of the cups, and offered these to groom anti bride, telling each to take a sip.

The amount given for Augusta includes the payment of debt and interest by the Village District, which constitutes no part of the ordinary expenses of the schools.

H. Smith’s connection with the city schools. Our schools never had a more vig ilant. efficient anil steadfast friend, and al though it w ould he pleasant for him to retire, the district cannot now dispense with his ser vices. The schools arc just now in a con dition requiring his oversight and best thought. In speaking of the village district school meeting, to be held next Saturday, the Farmer says The two directors, whose term of office ex pire*. are Mr. Orville 1). Baker and Mr. Win. H. Smith. Mr. Baker positively declines a re-election. Mr. Smith, while desiring to he relieved from the arduous duties of a direc torship, will probably serve another term. We Imt express the earnest conviction of the teachers, scholars and parents in the district, when we sav, it is the universal de sire of all w ho are interested in our school*, that Mr. Smith, who has been connected with the district as clerk in its early days, and director from 1*4."» to 1855, and for the pa*t three years, should serve as director as long a* lie may live. He has ever taken a deep interest in the schools, and he has won more than any man connected with them the confidence of teachers, the love of all the scholars, and the gratitude of every parent. Tli(* IVoyca-tilllinnit Case. If will he remembered that the suit of Noyes vs. Gilman for a small strip of land, w as tried in the Supreme Judicial court last fall, and that the jury disagreed. It was again tried this spring, and a verdict rendered in favor of Noyes. An important feature in the ease was a well, which the plaintiff claimed establishes the line, by having been many years ago about four feet north of the line fence. The defendant claimed that the line runs over the well, or in other words that the well was built upon the line. The prcpondence of evidence given by aged w it nesses, was in favor of the plaintiff’s side, and hence the verdict. Since the last trial, parties have made an excavation north of the well, anil find the remains of a former well, which the Gilmans claim is the one which the Noyes witnesses alluded to a* being four feet north of the fence. A note written by (’buries B. Gilman to a gentleman in this citv. alludes to the case as follows Watkkvim.k, April 2.1, I87fi. Pear Sir—We have been digging in the Noyes garden, and hate found an old well several feet farther north than the present well. This supports our theory, and contra dicts that of the plaintiff, that there was nev er any other well in a different location than the present well. Hcveral hundred people have already been to see it. Most truly yours, i’has. B. Oilman. l.ovs are all mad abont it. In Augusta it’s no offence, unless you burn up your neighbor's line fence.

Mr. Morgan's lecture in Wilson Hull on Tuesday evening last, on ••Kn-t Young Men," was one of the most varied and com prehensive in incident and scope that we iiave ever listened to. At times the speaker in dulged in the highest flights of rhetorical sub limity, and anon he would change to the pa thetic or ludicrous without apparent effort in the line of creating a sensation, hut only to make a "telling point." The miseries of the intemperate and vicious, generally were de picted in all their enormity: and the possibil ities of effecting thorough reformation were illustrated by examples from ancient and modern history The audience was unfortu nately small, and made up principally of staid and sober citizens who cannot he classed really as "last." in the moral sense of that term. There nre un doubtedly many young men and others io our city who might have listened to this lec ture with interest and profit, had their incli nations led them to a serious consideration of tin1 subject so thoroughly and practically dis cussed on the above occasion.

Further particular, of tlic sliuotmg of Eliwill liooth. are given, an follows The plav was lHclmrd the First. Near the finish of the last art Booth sat in a glare of calcium light, with all the other lights turned down, and engaged in soliloquy. He sat a little to the right of the centre of the stage, with the prison on one side and the cottage on the other. The intended assassin sat nearly on a level with him, in the first balcony, anil some thir ty feet distant, with the pistol concealed in his sleeve, anil in his left hand a copy of the play, w hich lie had apparently been following w ith the dire purpose of firing only at the right time. When the first shot rang out there was a dead silence. Booth did not stir, but as the second came whizzing down, and plowed its war through a piece of hoard in the cottage, Mr. Booth quietly rose and went toward the wing. A rush was immediately made for tiray, ami as there seemed to be some doubt which was the mail. Booth again stepped out, point ed directly at him, and saw him taken into custody. All this time there was a wild uproar in the house, and shouts of “Throw him over!" “Hang him!” “Push him out the window!" and the like. He was, however, s|>ccililv hustled off to the station and locked ap. On his person w-as found the following incoher ent letter, which clearly indicates his pre meditated purpose: iik mo, April 23, lM.ih Dear Katie:—Forgive these brief, but hor rible line*. I letTt St. Louis Monday eve ning. The firm I was with would not increase my salary, so I made up iuy mind to return to Keokuk, hut being a lover of fine acting I came to Chicago to see Booth. I was sadly mistaken. It would take Booth one year of constant acting to compete with Lawrence Barrett’s Richelieu. To-night he plays Rich ard I. Katie, if I go to-night he will kill me or 1 him. In Shakespere’s (sic) works I find but one man to compete with Booth, and that is Iago. My judgment ought to foretell me that since I call Booth Iago he could no more play Richelieu than the devil could be an an gel. I don’t know what to do. Every line I write I prance the floor as though I was play ing Hamlet. I’m sorry I came here, for I think the hangman has a rope for me. Re member me to your mother and sister. Yours truly, Mark Gray. Reading this note, the impression would remain that the writer was an incoherent lu natic. hut conversing with him, as he sat coolly in prison and talked collectedly about hi« deed, the almost irresistible conclusion drawn from his manner is, that he is perfect ly sane, and acted with full knowledge and well considered purpose. His story is that lie belongs in Keokuk, but lias been traveling for a St. Louis dry goods house: that about three year* ago Mr. Booth wronged a friend of his, (whether lady or gentleiuun lie doe* not state.) and that be coming cognizant of the wrong about twoand one-half years ago. lie determined to avenge it. He has only met Booth once since, and then was on the streets of St. Louis, and he was not prepared. He says he tired directly at the tragedian, ami wonders greatly that lie missed. He regrets his failing even more than he wonder* at it. He says he has accomplices hack of him, and that Booth will yet sutler. He came here tor the express purpose of killing Booth. Mr. Booth says until to-night hr never heard of this man. He w as not aware he had been fired at during the first excitement, and went behind tin* scene to quiet his wife, w ho feared lie had been injured. The opinion is generally expressed by at taches of the theatre, and by others w ho saw Gray, that he is crazy. He fired two shots, snapped his pistol again, and was cocking it for a fourth trial, when he was seized. Gray plead guilty to attempt to kill. The magistrate remarked that it was lucky the charge was not murder. Gray said, **I wish it was.” Bail was fixed at 920,Ok)—he went to jail. The penalty i* from one to fourteen years. Gray bought the pistol Wednesday, for the express purpose of shooting Booth. GEN. DIX’8 FUNERAL* Public Testimonials of Mourniug* Nkw York. April 24. The funeral of Gen.

I am under great ob ligations to you all for your kindness to a stranger.” "Oh yes,” saitl she, father seems to have taken a particular fancy to you lmt sometimes he is quite rude to my hest friends.” "I am surprised that he should ever he rude to any one,” said he. "I hardly ever knew him to be so,” she said, “lint lie is not willing to let me as sociate with the Quakers, and my friend I >ora Graham goes to the Friend's meeting. 1 believe father dislikes any one who did not belong to our church. You have no idea how set he is.” “You surprise me," said the minister. our father does not seem like one to have unreasonable prejudice*." They had now about reached the church, which was situated at the comer of two streets. A voting lady and gentleman in unmistakable Quaker drub were coming up the other street, and met them rather abruptly. They spoke like familiar ac quaintances, and the young man lifted his hat. “Ah, this must Im> Ibtra Graham." thought Mr. M'April. “This young man is her brother perhaps. There may lie some other reason w hy Mr. Varlev does not fancy the friendship.'- lie again glanced at his companion. Her eyes were east down, and she hurried into church, feeling vexed that they should have met the Grahams, though she did not know whv. The minister followed her slowly and thoughtfully, but when he reached the pulpit every thing except the service in which they w ere about to engage was ex pelled from his mind. While the organist was playing the voluntary he took up the hymn-book and began to read the selection' for the afternoon then he aroused himself to better attention, and read the same thing over again, and this is what he read ••J*lun/r«*«l in a rulf of dwp drxpair, We wretch ft I niunirn lay, Without one rl»« rful U-ai.i of »r -park of glfmiitpriux day an this be the kind of selections my friend John Smith is in the habit of mak ing?" he wondered. “If so, lie must have changed in a short time." lie turned the book over, and looked at the hack; j then lie started tip as if about to speak, but seemed to think better of it. At length his gaze rested on a small Testament lying on a bracket in the pulpit. lie seized it, and turned to the fly-leaf, on which was writ ten in a plain band, “Alexander Appleton Smith, Parole." He saw the whole thing now. Evidently he had read his friends letter incoreetly, and had come to the wrong place. Hut how could it have hap pened There was not one chance in a hundred that two Mr. Smiths should lie absent from their pulpits on the same day. How very strange that he should have lighted upon another Mr. Smith's vacant ml pit! and then, where did his friend Mr. John Smith preach? Now the question j arose as to what he should do next. lie could not conscientiously read that hymn, and the sermon he was expecting to preach might not suit his audience; yet would it not be well for them to hear some opinions different than theirnwn for once He felt almost like an impostor, for the people thought their own Mr. Smith had sent him. and had no idea what were his articles of faith. Yet lie thought he should like to have Mr. Smith preach for him J then why should he not preach for Mr. j Smith The music of the organ had ceased some time ago, and his friends be gan to fear that he did not feel well enough to preach. Mr. Varlev had just started from his pew. having made up his mind to inquire into the prolonged silence, when flie young man arose. “My friends," he said, “I beg your par don, particularly that of the choir, for 1 have decided to speak to you upon a dif ferent subject from wlmt’l at first intend ed, and this involves a ehage in the} hymns.” While they were singing the first In mu he selected his text, which was this ‘“He is not a Jew which is one outwardly; hut he is a Jew [or we might say, 'hris tian] which is one inwardly amt eircuni- j cision is that of the heart,’ in the spirit, I and not in the letter.” Perhaps a greater impression was made i upon the audience than in the morning. for things had never been presented to them in just that light before. Mr. Varlev paid j the strictest attention, and then walked home quietly, with no such outburst as in the morning, pondering over what he had j heard. That evening, when the Varlevs and their guest were seated talking together, they were startled by a strange sound. “What can that lie?” exclaimed Mr. M'April. “Oh, that is the signal for ('apt. Hal yard's evening meeting,” answered Mr. Varley. “I have not heard it before to day, so I gues- lie could not find a preach er, and put off his meeting until to-night. Fhe Captain is a queer, crotchety man, who has built a small house, where lie holds some kind id a service every Sun day. Somehow every one seems willing to put up with his eccentricities. Me and his wife have really done some good here, jieople say but I know very little about it." As he was speaking the dnnr bell ruim violently. Kuth started tip and went t” the door". “Good evening, my dear," said a pleas ant voice. “I wonder if you can give me a match." And a sluin', stout, elderly man, with a broad, smiling face, entered. “How do you do?" said Mr. Varley. This is a coincidence, for we were just shaking about you. Mr. M'April. this is ('apt. Royal Halyard." The two gentlemen slionk hands. “I hope you will excuse me for coming in Sunday night, Mr. Varlev," said apt” Halyard; “hut niv matches'all went out, and as your house is nearer than mine, i just ran ill to get another. 1 am glad 1 came, for now I can see vmir minister close V*,. J -wettH** h« at y\,v, aii day'to day, Sir," lie- continued, addressim' Mr M'April. That was the right l.ind of preaching, and I have been wishing 1 eoulcl ask you to say a few words to us to-night. You gee,’ we have preaching when I can get a minister who is round this way to help us out; and when I can't, I just talk to the people a little myself. Hut you look so tired I guess I had fictter licit ask y ou to do anything more fo-nigh! so I will hurry along and do the best frail myself. Thank you, Ruth; but I don't need so many. I guess two will light u up." (Continued to-morrow. TX3ST HOOFIXsTO lx INK BY WILLIAMSON GREENWOOD. Mo. 41. I’nioii lilocK. Wriu*4y» oi all kind* n-pairt-d.
