THE ELECTION.
I From our Extra of Wednesday.
Good Morning President Gr-
field! That “Heathen Chinee” and 329
did it.
The lovely weather granted uii for election
day gladdened the hearts of all Republicans,
and was receivedas an omen of assured suc-
cess; therefore the Republicans were exceed.
ingly jubilant throughout until the close.
The tide of voters commenced early and
continued almost unceasingly until the close.
Everything was orderly and pleasant, but
every one seemed terribly in earnest. Up
town the Bigelows Went to the polls at seven
o‘clock ina mass. while at South Norwalk
the Republicans from A ROWayton came over
to the polls in procession, with their “ Boys
in” Blue” iu.front, headed by martial music
and each with a small flag in his cap. The
enthusiasm was intense and kept up until a
late hour in the morning.
The Republicans have carried nearly every
northern State. It is estimated that in the
néxt Congress, the Republicans will have a
majority of twenty. with possibly two ma-
jority in .the Senate. The solid South and
thejparty’of fraud, lying and forgery, seem
to have received what -_the large majority of
good citizens will hope will be their death-
blow. - .
In Connecticut the Republicans have their
full share of glory. In opposition to a pin-
rality of 2,900 for Tilden in 1876 they present
a plurality of 3.000 for_Garfield.
There is but little change in the Legisla-
ture. It is Republicanbut by a larger ma-
jority than last year. This insures the elec-
tion of a Republican to succeed Senator
Eot'on.
Republican sheriffs are elected in every
county except New Haven.
Old Norwalk‘ exceeded our most sanguine
anticipations, and has rolled up a war time
majOrity. This of course is most gratifying
to our noble band of workers, who have
worked early and late to achieve the noble
result All honor to them.
Two good and true Republicans, were
eleétéd to represent as in the Legislature
' andto help elect a sound Republican U. 8.
Scholar in place of Eaton, who will now
have permission to retire to private life. Our
Senator. Hon. Oliver Hoyt, is again hand-
somély re—elected, as is also our Judge of
Probate, Asa B. Woodward, and best of all,
the county has redeemed itself by spewing
out the notorious Sheriff Sanford and his
happy family of deputies, and ensuring
good Republicans in their places by electing
C. H. Crosby, of Danbury, as High Sheriff.
We keep our congressional delegation the
same as before—three Republicans to one
Democrat—Miles, in this district being re-
elected by over 500 majority. The delega-
tion will be John R. Buck. r., of Hartford,
John T. Wait, r., of Norwich, Frederick
Miles, r., of Salisbury, and James Phelps, (1.
of Essex. .
Allin all, the victory is full and most
complete.

' [Specialdispatch to the Boston Herald.]
MENTOR, 0., November 2, 1880, 5 p. m.—
The weather is delightful. A warm summer
day has made it possible for aged and infirm
voters to turn out, and all this region of
country has cast a full vote, almost every
voter, sick and well, being brought to the
polls. Last night the streets Of every town
in this state were stre'wn thickly with small
circulars containing copies of the forged
Chinese letter, printed in both English and
German, and supplemented by urgent ap—
peals for workingmen to vote for Hancock.
The effect has been to still further arouse
' the republicans,and to estrange from their
party many democrats who do not approve
or such campaign methods, and the repub-
lican vote is increased by the labors of the
democrats. who distribute the circulars.
There is no demonstration so far at General
Garfield’s headquarters. His office is a small
building near his residence here. Two tele-
graph 'operutors are busy receiving dis-
patches from committees and personal
friends of General Garfield, and a few news-
paper men are impatiently waiting for to—
night's news. General Garfield is the very
picture of health and good nature. In his
plain attire, and with his bluff, hearty man-
ner, he would be taken by a stranger for a
Well-to-do farmer, who has nothing'specially
at stake in the battle of ballots. His little
son Abram, ten or twelve years of age, has
just come in from the common school, half a
mile away. He reports that his brother was
kept in school after the close for playing
'truant on electiOu day. Hundreds of letters
lie on General Garfield’s desk, received dur-
ing the past week from democrats in all parts
of the country, saying that they refuse to in-
dorse the crime of forgery and will therefore
vote the republican ticket. ‘ Here in the
Nineteenth district, where Garfield is per-
sonally known to everybody, the attack on
his character and the misrepresentation of his
views on the Chinese question, operate di
rectly in his favor, and his majority will ex-
ceed any he has ever received as a candidate
for congress.
7 p. m.—General Garfield sits in his office.
apparently free from anxiety, and convers-
ing pleasantly with journalists and others,
The first dispatch received was from
Youngstown, saying: “We. have, in honor
of your election, at six o’clock this evening,
lighted the fire of a new furnace, the largest
in the Mahoning vally." General Garfield
remarking on the confidencepf his friends,
says that he has never said on any occasion,
when he was a candidate for any ofiice, that
he expectedto be ‘elected. “I have never,"I
he said, “even said to my wife that my elec-
tion was certain. I have preferred to wait
for .the facts as shown by the count of
votes.” The general's neighbors are gather-
ing into his ofiice to hear the news and re—
late incidents of the election in Mentor.
One of these is worth repeating. Eight
of .. this town, more than
eighty years of age, rode together to
the polls, escorted by a cavalry company,
fifty strong. One of the eight has reached
his 100th year, and the aggregate age of the
eight is 665 years. The self-possession and
unconcern of the general do not characterize
his neighbors. The postmaster of Mentor,
a jolly village physician, sits at my left, and
says gleefully : ,“Little did I think,_ Ifiye
years ago, when General Garfield and I were
neighbors in Portage county, that both of us
would remove to Mentor, that he would be a
candidate for president, and that I should be
his postmaster.” Telegrams are coming in
from New York, Maine, Connecticut and
other states. all showing republican gains.
“Well,” exclaims a friend, “I want to hear
about congressmen now. The presidency is
safe.” "Don’t know about that,” replied
General Garfield.
8:36 p. m.——Senator Blaine telegrapbs :
“Maine gives you a handsome majority over
all opposing tickets." At this hour the
honest farmers of the surrounding country
are crowding in. The scene is a truly dem—
ocratic one in the best sense of the word.
There is utter freedom from restraint, and
the central figure of the group, who knows
at this moment that he is president—elect,
shows no sign of elation, but reads the tele—
grams aloud to the company with as much
coolness as if nothing strange or important
had taken place. A little son of his is pass-
ing a pail of apples to the listeners, who
munch the fruit, smoke their cigars and con-
verse as familiarly with the president-elect
as they do with each other. If any empire
is impending there is not much sign of it
here to—night. The earliest days of the re-
public could furnish no finer example of re-
publican plainness and ~simplicity than is
shown here at the rural home of our next
president. The vote of Mentor has just
been reported and causes great rejoic-
ing among the citizens here. It show8
a republican gain of 13 over the October
election, _and is the largest republican vote
and majority ever given in this town. It
shows how General Garfield stands with his
nearest neighbors, and evidently pleases him
as much as anything which has yet been re—
ceived. Speaking of his delay in denying
the genuineness of the Morey Chinese letter,
General Garfield said to your correspondent
that he waited purposely three days in order
to give the democrats time to fully commit
themselves, knowing that they would gladly
improve the opportunity and thus injure
their own cause. Reading a dispatch from
Richmond, Va., indicating that the hour—
bons had carried that state, he said he was
glad that the republicans there had not fused
with the readjusters, as he was infiexibly
Opposed to any union with men who would
disregard public obligation. Just now he
remarked that the results of the election
were three things—first, that the American
people are determined to stand in defense of
their nationality; second, that they mean to
sustain good, fair, honest financial legisla-
tion; third, that they do not propose to let
American politics degenerate into a disgrace-
ful war of mud.

“What’s your opinion of the respective
nominees for President ?” asked a Louisville
Argus reporter while poking his head in the
door Of Uh La Ling’s laundry.
The answer came birdlike and musical:
“Me no calec damme what Melican man do.

TOBACCO AMONG THE DOCTORS—ITS PHYSIO-
LOGICAL AND MENTAL Erasers.
The discussion of the physiological and
mental effect of tobacco upon man and ani.
_ mals has recently been revived among medi-
cal men abroad, instigated chiefly, it would
seem, by the remarkable experiments made
by Dr. Smith, an eminent English physician,
and by him communicated to the British
association, and the no less interesting re-
searches in the same line by Dr. Lebon, of
Paris.
Briefly stated, Dr. Smith aims to show
that while tobacco smoking causes a large
increase in the rate of pulsation of some per.
sons, in others no increase occurs—the fact
being, therefore, that there is a diversity in
the mode of action in the case of this sub-
stance, as there is unquestionably known to
be in its good or evil effects upon mind and
body in different persons.
In pursuing his investigation, Dr. Smith
Operated on an individual whom he induced
to prepare for the test by sitting absolutely
still until the pulse stood at an average of
about seventy-five and one—half beats per
minute, The patient then began to smoke a
pipe, and, during the first five minutes of
smoking the effects were comparatively
slight; the pulse, however, increased in
firmness and fullness, standing at an average
of seventy-eight and eight-tenths per minute.
During the next fourteen minutes the fre—
quency of the pulse was, successively, 87, 88,
94.- 98, 102, 102, 105. 105, 104, 105, 107, 107,
110, and there was an increased sense of
warmth, together with slight perspiration on
the brow. Smoking was now stopped, and,
during the next minute, the pulse rose to
112; but it then began steadily to decline,
until, at the end of half an hour from the
commencement of the smoking, it was at lit-
tle less than 89. For more than two hours
he remained above the natual average of
frequency and force. , ‘
The time of ten o’clock p. m. is assigned
by Dr. Smith as the pr0per One for thus in—
stituting tests as to the action of tobacco,
and previous to such test no fbod should be
taken for four hours. He also considers that
to literary men, on whom tobacco may be
found to produce this kind of stimulant
effect, it would be an efiicient substitute fur
the wine they so frequently take to assist
them in brain work which is done late at
night; when, however, the body is of full
habit, it must lead to disturbed sleep, and
may produce apoplexy.
Though of a somewhat difierent‘character
from the preceding, the researches of Dr.
Lebon are to be regarded as perhaps even
more reliable and conclusive, from their
wider range and detail, the most important
results being briefly as follows:
In the first place, according to M. Lebon,
smokers and persons who, without smoking,
are enveloped in an atmosphere of tobacco
smoke, absorb for each quantity of ten
grammes of tobacco a proportion of nicotine
varying from some centigrammes to a gram-
me, and also absorb about an equal amount
of ammonia; us, therefore, the quantity of
tobacco consumed daily by a single individual
addicted to its use is scarcely less than twen-
ty grammes, a smoker is liable, therefore, to
absorb daily twenty-five centigrammes of
nicotine, with an equal proportion of ammo-
nla. . . I
Of all kinds of smoking, the most danger.
ous, as shown by M.I Lebon, is that of smok-
ing a cigar or cigarette, and swallowing the
smoke, while the least dangerous is that of
smoking a narghilepr pipe, with, a igng tube,
in the open air. '
The effect produced by the result of the
condensation of tobacco smoke is, he says,
analogous to that of nicotine; nevertheless
there must be added the effects produced by
the ammonia which the smoke contains in
considerable quantity. The resinous semi-
liquid which condenses in the interior of the
pipe is ascertained to contain a considerable
proportion of nicotine in all cases, and the
fact is the substance is but little less poison -
ous than nicotine itself, and is known to
rapidly destroy the life of animals exposed
to its action. .,
The liquid product which condenses in the
lungs and mouth of a smoker M. Lebon finds
to contain water, ammonia, nicotine, fatty
and resinous bodies, and coloring matters, a
dose of one drop of this speedily producing
paralysis of motion in Ismail animals and a
state of apparent death, and though these
effects quickly disappear, death actually
supervenes if the dose is carried further
up to several drops; or if, instead
of administering it internally, the animal is
made to breath it for some time, it dies all
the same, the effect in the last case seeming
to be due, in a great measure. to the presence
of ammonia. In a dose of a single drop
dangerous results are not produced upon
large animals, but those of small size are
killed instantaneously. Among the effects
observed, under these circumstances, the
most constant are fribillar tremblings, a gen-
eral congestion of the superficial vessels,
stupor and a contraction of the muscles of
the abdomen.
A peculiar fact in this connection is that
nicotine is one of the poisons the effect of
which is most speedily dissipated, and the
habituation to which it is soonest accomplish-
ed. Contrary, too, to what has generally
been supposed, the vapor of nicotine, at the
ordinary temperature, is not dangerous,
though it is quite otherwise if the liquid be
allowed to reach a state of ebulition.
Supplementary to Dr. Lebou’s researches
may be cited the investigations, made almost
contemporaneously, by Drs. Vohl and En—
lenberg, in this same field, and which have
given rise to at least an equal amount of dis
cussion among physiologists, embracing, as
they do, not only an examination of the pro-
ducts generated by the combustion of tobac-
co during, but also the physilogical effects
of the bases extracted from tobacco smoke,
and the chemical composition of commercial
tobacco for smoking, for chewing and snuff.
The article sold for smoking purposes was
invariably found by them to contain nicotine,
amounting sometimes to four per cent. or
more, while in tobacco used for chewing and
snuff only minute traces of that alkaloid
could be detected, so that nicotine poisoning
from chewing or snufling would appear to
be very problematical—indeed, it is asserted
that no such cases are on record. Among
the gaseous products given off during the
smoking of good tobacco and cigars. there
were found oxygen. nitrogen, marsh gas and
carbonic oxide, besides the more readily
condensible gases' and vapors—su‘phureted
hydrogen and hydrocyanic acid. and occa-
sionally s'ylphocyanic acid, this case being
produced at a later stage by the action of
sulphureted hydrogen on hydrocyauic acid.
The acid and non-basic products formed are
various. The most interesting fact develop.
ed in these investigations was that no nico—
tine could be detected among the basic pro—
ducts of the distillation—proving that the
injurious efiects of tobacco smoking are not
to be attributed to nicotine. ~
On the contrary, according to these chem-
ists, it was in the alkaloids of the pyridin or
picolin series, well known to be produced
during the destructive distillation of wood
and other vegetable products, that the pol-
sonous influences, were found. These were
tested upon pigeons and guinea pigs, 'and
were found to produce tetnnic spasms,
irregular action Of the heart and death. The
same bases obtained from other sources than
tobacco produced similar effects. As. the
slime pyridin bases are products of the. dis-
. tillation of opium, Drs. Vuhl and Eulcnberg
l—contiary to the conclusions arrived at by
4.
most other experimenters in this line—at-
tribute lhe effects produced by smoking this
drug to the picolin 987165. of alkaloids rather
than to morphia. .‘ '
The theory just presented, novel as it cer-
viainl y seemsacquires additional interest from
some very recent Ig‘Iinvestigations on the
composition of tobacco smoke, with especial
reference to the reference to the relative pre-
parations or carbonic acid and carbonic
oxide, made by Dr. Krause, a German
chemist of much .‘eminence. His results
show that the smokfp invariably contains a
considerable proportion of the very poison-
ous gas, carbonic oxide. every one hundred
volumes of smoke containing, in —fact, on an
average, nine and three-tenths volumes of
carbonic oxide and tivelve and two-tenths of
carbonic acid. Thisbelng theme, and as a
smoker never expelsliall his smoke, but must
absorb more or less fiof it by means of his
lungs, Dr. Krause thinks it clear that the
evil effects of so deleterious a gas as carbonic
oxide are not only hot to be overlooked, but.
that it seems likely that some of the evils
usually attributed to nicotine may.with more
fairness, be credited to this highly poiscnous
gas.
In view of all these various experiments
and their results, it'= would seem that if
tobacco were employedpnly for its smoke,
and not for the physiological efiectuwhich.
the smoke produces,’it would be “easy to
substitute for it some inofiensive substance,
or even to abstain entirely from its use,
unless, indeed, the mEre mechanical opera-
tion of breathing gas " through the tube of a
pipe or a segar is not all the pleasure of smo-
king, or the odor of tobacco, aside from its
special influence, does not have a sufficient
attraction. It is not difficult to conceive
that persons may become habituated to the
use of tobacco thus deprived of its peculiar
qualities, when it is considered how many
substances are now largely consumed and
enjoyed as substitutes for coffee which, in
reality. are destitute or all the fine qualities
of that berry. —-St. Louis Republican.

We cannot help having sympathy with the
fierce rebuke of Robert Hall at the [piety
whose chief virtue seems to be to look ugly.
and behave stupidily. After one of his grand
sermons he was dining with a friend, and was
as playful as a kitten, making all gleeful
around him. One of the profession, who
had the conception that stolidity was piety,
rebuked him, saying, “Mr. Hall you shock
me. You preach like an angel, but out of
the pulpit you have the levity of a sinner.”
Is that your honest Opinion of me ?" said
Mr. Hall. “Yes.” “Well,” said be, “there
is a marked difference between us," “Ybs,”
said pious stolidity, “I hope so; What is
it.” “Well," said Mr. Hall, “you have your
foolishness in the pulpit and I have mine out
of it."
Q
A brave little woman whose husband had
deserted her and carriéd of! her child, dis-
guised herself beyond his recognition and
followed in pursuit,in order to discover where
he had placed the object of her search. Fi—
nally, she traced the child toa convent in At-
chinson, Kansas. She gained access to the
interior, and tolyjl the. sisters that she wanted
to see the childil She wad very restless, and
walked the floor till the child appeared. Dis-
guised as she was, the child recognized her
instantly, and rushed into her outstretched
arms. The woman, ‘clasping the child with
one arm, tried to open the door. The sisters
resisted to the utmost, but the desperate
mother, assisted by the hack driver in wait-
ing,IImade h'erIexit. She placed the child in
the carriage, and with a pistol presented
dared them to take her child, and drove OH
in triumph.

A missionary of the American Sunday
School Union in the South, writes: “While
I was organizing a new Sunday school, there
was present a preacher of a sect who do not
believe in Bible societies, nor in any society
for spfeading the gospel, thinking that Sun—
day schools and all missionary work are
contrary to God’s word. After the school
was formed, he tried to prove that it is a sin
to use any book but the bible, and said: ‘If
you want to go down to Egypt or Babylon
for books, they will give you all you can
tote away but they won’t do you any good.’ ”

How shall they be supplied with
Bibles.
A missionary of the American Sunday
School Union in Missouri, in canvassing a
neighborhood found a poor sick man, a pro—
fessor of religion and head of a family, des—
titute of bible or testament. He says:
“When I wrote his name in the bible and
handed it to him, he remained silent some
moments, looking at the inscription, and then
said, ‘Do you mean to give me this bible?’
When Isaid, 'I do ;’ with tears in his eyes
he said‘ ‘I thank the good Lord for his kind-
ness ;-may his blessing rest on you.’
“I found a young preacher using a bor-
rowed bible to preach from. He has charge
of three or four poor churches. When asked
where his bible was, he replied, ‘I have no
bible. When at home I use father's big .
bible to study from; when I go out to preach
I borrow, or recite my text from a bible. In
one of his churches Iorgauized the first Sun-
day school they ever. had."
- The American Sunday School Union have
repeatedly acknowledged their obligations to
the American Bible Society for abundant
suppl‘es to their missionaries to meet all de-
mands.

Oh,-if I were a democrat, I

Oh, if I were a democrat,
I would not tear my shirt;
I’d ramp and howl and rave and swear
And rip and tear,
And yowl and blare
And whoop and screech and snort and rare
And stamp and paw the dirt.

Some lonesome, deep, secluded hole,
And pull the hole in too.
HELP.
BY 0. F. RICHARDSON.
The world is full of labor,
It toils in wearincss:
You cannot hear its burden,
But you can make it less.
A little Child is trying
To lift a heavy load ;
God help the helpless toilor
. Along the weary road.
A poor old, friendless woman
Is tottering on alone;
Her trembling strength has failed her :
Go offer her your own.
Though little be the action,
Its heart the Lord shall bee. -
And his shall be the witness:
“Ye did it unto me.”

SUMMER RAIN.
J. E. N.
List! the rain, the summer rain,
Comes like ease to lengthened rain.
Silver sweet,
Ils twinkling feet
F’er the wide lake’s crystal floor—
Through the leaves that shades the shore—
Lightly tripping,
Softly dripping,
Both a liquid music pour;
Far and wide,
Limped pools of silver lie,
Holding each a mimic sky;
Earth is like a censer fair,
Breathing fragrance on the air.
Come! 0 sweetest summer shower,
Bringing, in a happy hour,
Kisses for each fainting flower-
Fairy fingered, silver shod—
Trip. it o’er the grateful sod!
==
The Little Ones.
Oh! when at dawn the children wake
And patter up and down the stairs,
The flowers and leaves a glory take
The rosy light a splendor shares, 1
That nevermore these eyes would see
If my sweet ones were gone from me.
And when at eve' they watch and wait,
To fold me in their arms so white,
My burdens, whether small or great.
Are charmed away by calm delight;
And, shutting out the world, I live
The purest moments life can give
But when at bed—time round me kneel
Wee, tender, loving, white robed forms,
With hands upraised in fond appeal—
Ah I then are hushed life’s weary storms-
And Heaven seems very near to me,
With my sweet darlings round my knee!
—Boston Transcript.
A Maiden’s Message.
0 wind that'wandered o’er hill and vale and
sea,
Blow round the home where he sleeps
peacefully,
And breaths upon his brow a kiss from me.
0 golden maiden moon, so calm and pure and
bright.
Shed round and o’er him thy soft, tender
streams of light ;
to-night.
0 stars all silvery bright, set on that deep,
still blue, .
Stars that are watching o’er us both the
long night through,
Tell him my love for him is pure for him—
and true.
0 grand, grand, snow-white clouds, slow
drifting o’cr the sky,
Bear to his heart a message as ye pass him
by.
Tell him my love would teach me how to do
—or die.
0 great wide 8( a, on which the night winds
, blow, ‘
Sing in his cars thy music calm and slow,
Sing to his heart I love him, sing it soft and
‘ low. ’
O tiny, laughing ripples, ‘dancing on the
shore,
O mighty ocean waves, thundering your
ceaseless roar,
Tell him I love him so well I could not love
him more I
sunny sea,
. And restless, wandering winds, hear him
these words from me,
“My own dear love, I love thee well—and
constantly. —Good Words.
