What became of those men and that
shipping? Ask the wind and the
waves all along the English and Irish
coasts. The men and the ships all
wrecked or drowned or scattered. So
I expect that Moses will be helped ii
rescuing the Israelites by a special
weaponry. To the Egyptians the .Nile
was a deity. Its waters were then as
now very deli.-ous. It was the finest
natural beverage of all the earth. We
have no su ch love for the Hudson, and
Uermans vav.3 no such love for the
lIthine, and jiussians have no stich love
for the Volga as the Egyptians lujve
love for the Nile.
But ona day, when Pharaoh conies
lown to this river, Moses takes a stick
ind whips the waters, and tiy turn
nto the gore of a slaughter house, and
hrough the sluices and f1shponds the
ncarnadined liquid backs up into the

And then boils, one of which will put,

kindles a torch not held by humail
iands but by omnipotent hand.
Not made out of straw or oil, but.
kindled out of the atmosphere, such a
orch as the world never saw before
ind never will see again. It reached
rroin the earth unto the heaven, a pillar
>f fire, that pillar practically wAying
'This way! March this way!" On that
upernatural flambeau more than a
nillloa refugees set their eyes. Moses
ind Aaron lead on. Then come the
ierds and flocks moving on across the
iands to what is the beach of waters
low called Bahr-el-Kilzum, but called
n the Bible the led sea. And when I
lipped my hands in its blue waters, the
ieroics of the Mosaic passage rolled
ver me.
ON TIllE REDi SEA' alSlORF.
After three days march the Israel
tish refugees encamped for the night
in the banks of the lied sea. As the
hadows begin to fail, in the distance
s seen the host of Pharaoh in pursutit.
[hore ,were six hundred finest war
hlariots, followed by common chariots.

it was about two o'clock ini tIhe morn

So the burden of oppressioun was lil t

Th'fe huiiman race is so multiplied that

IEight h nndred millions of the human

LAST WEEK'S ELECTIONS.
A DRAWN BATTLE BETWEEN THE

Ni-'Nw Y0.ik ALL 1i0HT.
Nj-:w Yon, Nov. -I.-In last 'tues
day's election the Democrats s%n ept the
State, their majority being between
forty and lifty thousand.
Ex-President Grover Cleveland gave
his opinion of the results of Tuesday's
election as follows: "Of course every
oto has the right to put his own con
struction upon the results, and I aui
not anxious to obtrude my indeas, but
it seemis to mne some things ought to be
no longer doubtful. Anyone who still
thinks that tariff reform is a settled
and obsolete issue, or that the impor
tance of sound and safe money is a
qiuestion upon whielh the people Can be
blinded, is either wilfully wrong or
dangerously dull. It seems to me, too,
that Deinocrats ought to be satisfied
that a staunch adharence to the princi
ph s of their party does not require the
abuse of those who show an inclination
to help)t us. I very much regret the de
feat of Governor Campbell. Ile has
he-in a brave and honest ollicial. This
and the splendid canvass lie made en
tiiked h im to success. Whil the elec
t ion of Flower, Nussell and Boies ought
to cause the utmost rejoicing among
Democrats, they should not forget that
with thteso things comes the obligation
to ie true to the party, honest in the
advoeaev of our principles, and decent
in all things.
W ATI:TOwN, N. Y., Nov. 4.-Gov
erimr clect Flowt r returned this eve
1uing froml New York,and was received
by thousands of citizens who tendered
himi a grand ovation. A carriage
drawn by six white h. rses was in wait,
ing, which the Governor-elect entered.
A parade was then formed, and Mr.
Flower was then escorted to his home,
where Mayor Porter made a few re
miarks of welcome, Mr. Flower respond
ing inl a feeling manner.
T E lIoT ONisTs 'A UTURIE 01110.
C'uL.:ii;L-s, ()hio, Nov. 4.-The Ite
Ilblicans carried this State in Ties
<tay's election by a majority of twenty
thoul-aild, electing all of their State
olferni and caltuing both branches of
t. Legislature.
The I eature of the result is the coml
l1(te drop of the 'eople's party. Their
vote in the State will not exceed 11,500,
aiid I hey claiined before the election
t least, 75,o0u. They probably will lose
7,uo votes troi last year, falling prob.
ably 16,0,io. This loss is traced to the
ieubbAln Counties and partially ac
co-nts for thekir gains in strength.
>vcrnor Campbell takes the situa
I ii Ph i)oophiclly and says that tht
1 (mocitie part, was laboring under
loo gieat a 1;lidicap in Ohio becatise of
tit h,Wk of 1undsi1 to Iy tle legitilnate
expilses of tile caupaign. lie says
I Iey have made the best light they could
in the face of the RepIblican majority
of I1,000 to start onl and the conbined
oplo.sit ivit of the manufacturers and
capitalists. liesides all this it was a
lift and death struggle with the Ite
I)ubilican party. 'o defeat McKinley,
one of its national leaders and the rep
resentative of its chosen idLea of pro
tection, meant the downfall and disin
tegration of the party itself. Party
lues were closely drawn.

MS.
TlOP'EKA, Kan. Nov. 4.-TLhe result of
the local election in Kansas yesterday
was a great surprise to all parties. The
Riepublicans carried eighty-five out of
the 106 counties in the State. The re
sult is a great vIctory for the Rlepubli
Can. Taen out of tihe eleven Peoples
party candidates for district j idge
were defeated. Last y(ar the People's
party elected nearly four-fifths of the
county officers of the state. Yesterday
the figures were reversed. The People a
party elected only one district judge
out of nine. The Re ublicans claim a 1
great victory over the People's party.
and that calamity and repudation as
preached by Peffer and Simpson are
dead.
TILE DEMOCRACY SOLID IN VIRGINIA.
RicnHMOND, Va., Nov. 4.-Later re
turns from the election in Virginia con
firm the claims that the Democrats have
swept all sections of the State. In the
senate, the Democrats, with the hold
over senators, have thirty-nine or forty
members of that body. In the house,
the Democrats are almost certain to
have over eighty-five of the 100 mem
bers. These figures are conservative.
For the first time since their enfran
chisemeut the negroes will not have rep
resentatives in either branch of the Vir
ginia Legislature. The Rpublicans
made no showing in yesterday's elec
tion. The Alliance and Independents
were the chief opponents of ttie Demo
crats, and neither of these cut much of
a figure.
ALL ONE WAY IN 3iIssissPPI.
JACKSON, Miss., Nov. 4.-The election
in this state was held for three railroad
commissioners, the entire legislature
and district attorneys. W. S. Laurins,
J. 13. Askew and .. F. Sessions were the
Democratic nominees for railroad con
missioriers, and had no opposition. The
general legislature will be overwhelm
ingly Democratic, with most of the
members pledged for the return of
Messrs. Gteorge and Walthal to the
United States senate.

WASnIN(TON, NoveMber -.--DllmO
crats in this vicinity are very well
pleased with the outcome of yesterday's
elections, while the Republic:ws Uo
glad that it was no worse. A member
of the Cabinet, who objecti to being
(I uoted, said to-day that the Republican
managers in New York completely ig
nored the Administration during the
recent fight In spite of the fact that
they were warned against the Anti
Tammany issuo in the riral districts.
Republicans in Northern New York
appealed to Patt and his lieutenants to
send some speakers into t hit section
who could tell the farmers something
about the effect of the McKinly bill oil
eggs, barley and simila- produicts which
comle into comnpetit ion with Canadian
productions. The Presidlent is alleged
to have suggested that it would be beCt

camipalin withm a view to arousing tile
initerest of the voters in the ejitnties
outside oi Newv York and Brooklynl.
hlis ideas were repleated to M1r. l'latt,
but he paid no attention to the friendly
PAuggestionus. llencei there appears to
be but little sympat,hy for the dowvnfall
of Fassett in Administration circles.
On the other hatnd, the iJetiocrats are
not cast dlowni because Camipbell was
defeated fin Ohio. WVhile they wanited
the courageous Governmor to win theyl3
realized that lhe hiad remai-kable o(ds
against himi. Congressman Mc Kin
ney, ol' New llampshire, who took
an active part ini the recent cam
paign, says that the whole weight of
the Administration was thrown into
Ohio to hellp AlcKinley. The returns
show a falling off in the R epubllicanl
vote in thme manufamctuiring centi-es,
wvhile they galineud ini the agricultural
districts, thus shmowing the people were
affected lby thle couriset of evenits since
the passage of the MlcKinley bill. The
operatives in the mills voted against
McKinley becauise his bill did niot in
crease their wages, andi the farmers
wvere disposed to favor ft because they
are getting b)etteir prices for them(ir crops,
and imagine the bill has something to

Congressmtan Mill1s expressed his re
grets that Governor Ca~ upbell was not
