Mt £t. (SU\\ §wntal W I E E 1 O Thursday. Nov. 6, 1873, Tutu. iti:srr.T. Tuesday's elections might havo been worse, and they might have been a good deal bettor. a this State (Jap- taio Davis is eleotod by about 10,- 0 0 0 majority. Captain Barto ia elected, bat by what majority caonot new be told. So is Mr. Wilson. Th State Troasurjshlp is close, with tbo indica- tions rather pointing toward the election of Mr. Dike. Fuller re- tains will be required to decide between Gen. Jennison and Col. Stevens (or Seoretary of State. Th Legislature will be largely Republican. I. Donnelly was elected to the Senate from Dakota county, and Morton S. Wilkinson from Blue Earth county. Wisconsin has done badly—very badly—Governor Washbarno being de- feated by from 5,000 to 10,000 ma- jority, while the opposition have the Legislature. New York has also gone to the bad by about 10,000 majority. at Massachusetts re-elects its Gov. Washburne by 12,000 maj rity. The Legislature is strongly Republican. The Republicans, or the Ames fac- tion of the party, have carried Miss s- sippi. Arkansas elects the entire Republi- can ticket. In Ne Jersey the Republicans se- cured a majority of the Legislature. Maryland went Democratic, of eOQTM. In Illinois the Farmers' tioket was elected. What was known as the Peo- tioket was successful in Chicago. is ia an off year, when things art generally badly mixed but iu some respeoti it has been an aw/ul year. I sensation of the past week in eommeroial oirclcs has been the failure of the great Rhode Island manufactur- ing firm of A & W Sprague and their Ne York commission house, Sprague & Co. Th Spragues were the most extensive cotton spin- ners in Rhode Island, and their credit has been almost without limit. Bu the panic had so depressing an effect upon their business that they were compelled on Thursday to suspend payment, with liabilities amounting to $11,475,443 and assets estimated at $19,495,259. I was reported on Sat- urday that II Claflin & Co., the great dry goods men of Ne York, ranking next to Stewart, had failed, but this proved to be not true. Tho firm is nt me what embarrassed, but is confi- dent of its ability to weather the finan- cial storm. I N S E A of capital flowing from the East to the West it is now flawing from the Wes to the East. Massachusetts has repealed her usury law, and money is readily loaned in Boston, on the best real estate security, at twelve per cent, interest. In Illinois the maximum rate is ten per cent., and instead of money being sent to Chicago for in- vestment it goes to Boston, where a better rate of interest can be obtained, and capitalists are even withdrawing loans previously made in Chicago. The Chicago papers are clamoring for a repeal of the usury law, that the ter- rible stringency in the money market there may be relieved. They say that business men in that eity and in other parts of Illinois are ready to pay twelve to fifteen per cent, interest, on first- class real estate security. W A W O the nice young man who shot bis father, writes from Sing Sing to the keeper of the N York Toombs "Please inform Ned Stckes that we are going to get up a first rate reception for him in this glorious in- stitution as soon as he pats on his uni- form and has his hair oat in the fash- ion." Had Cain lived in these more enlightened days, instead of being com pelled to bear through life, in the sight all men, the mark of a murder er, he would have found convenient witnesses to swear that Abel was the aggressor, and would have been sen- tenced, perhaps, to a few years' retiracy ia fling Sing. am I Minneapolis the manufacturers have been compelled by the stringency of the times, not only to reduce the number of working hours of their em ployees, but to reduce wages also. A Anoka, Washburn & Co., and the oth- er large taw-mill men have paid off their employees with one hundred day cheeks and ninety day due bills. Th Union says no one seems willing to those, even at a large discount, aad a "From the present outlook, we shall hare hard times in Anoka this winter." ALL chances for a monarchial coali- tion in France appear to be over with. Th Count de Cbambord himself, who was tendered the throne, has put his foot in it. has issued a manifesto in which he refuses to make any con- cessions to the Orleaoists, scouts indig- nantly the idea of relinquishing the white flsg, and declares his intention to continue an out and out Bourbon.— he Republicans are rrjoiced at the better turn affairs have taken. E A E President ot the S Paul and Sioux City Railroad, has a plied for the appointment of a Receiv- er for the Winona and St. Peter Rail- road, claims to be rightfully en titled to a three eighths intercut in tho stock, lands and franchises of the road, amounting to several millions ot dollars. mm O O E inoreased the public debt 4 3 0 2 9 7 6 0 A E E A S S With regard to tho remarkable af- fidavit made by Mr. Bernard Ebbert, and published in last week's Pi ess, con- cerning his difficulty with tho Laud Office, wo hnvo but a few words to say. It Mr. Ebbert misrepresented Mr. Gordon it is right aud just that he should publish a retractiou, but it is not necessary that ho should misrepre- sent others in order to relieve himself— that is, if tho statements contained in this affidavit were his own. 1. Mr. Ebbert called several times at this office, before the editor was in, and showing bis papers to the employ- ees declared that Mr. Gordon was at- tempting to swindle him, and was do- ing it because he wonld not purchase land belonging to Mr. G. 2. Th statements reduoed to writing and published in the number of Octo- ber 10th were exactly as made by Mr. Ebbert voluntarily and for publication. Each sent once was read to him after being written, and the whole was read to him carefully when completed and before he signed it. This was heard by Mr C. W Kingsbury, of this city, and Mr. E 11. Whitney, of Maywood. Mr. Ebbert insisted much moie than was included iu his statement that Mr. Gor ion refused to give him any in- formation about government lands, that he disoouraged him from taking a homestead, and that ho urged him to buy the traot owoed by himself (Gor- don). When Mr. Ebbert states, as be dees iu bis affidavit, that his com- plaiuts were not read to him, he states what he knows to be uutrue—it, in- deed, Mr. Taylor read to him the af- fidavit he attached his name to, which is exceedingly doubtful. 3. Mr. Ebbert is made by Mr. Tay- lor to say that Mr. MoClure made out his first homestead receipt, fl stated dntiiiutly before that it was made out by a cleik in the office but, what is stronger evidence still, the receipt was not in the handwriting of Mr. Mo- Clure but in that of the clerk. Th in under which the addition- al charge was made by Mr. Gordon were on file in the office at the time, aud had the) been followed by this clerk (or by Mr. McClare, it he is willing to accept the responsibility,} Mr. Ebbert would have had no diffi- culty in locating his homestead. But this affilavit contains so many other statements, at vaiiance with what Mr. Ebbert first said under his signa- ture and iu the presence of witnesses, that wo are quite satisfied he was not made aware of the contents of the doc- ument so earetully elaborated by Mr. Taylor. W E A E I E S he Chicago Journal of October 29th has these items: In some parts of kVisconsin the snow was from one to two feet deep on the level, this morning, and there ia good sleighing. This is the coldest day of the season in Chicago—24 degrees at 7 o'clock, and 43 degrees at noon, with a catting "noi'west er' blowing. And the Chioago Post cf October 3 1 this one Janesville, Wis., is wading through snow drifts two feet high. How is that for •—well, mind. never E publisher of the Duluth Trib- une has suspended the publication of his daily until Ma 1st of next year, lie gives as the reason that the enter- prise would not pay that times have very much changed in Duluth since the daily was started in 1872 and that it is necessary for all to curtail their expenses. Sensible and business like. Wo hope the daily Tribune may start again in the spring all the more vigorously and successfully for its winter's rest. O Church has erased the name of Theodore Tilton from its roll of members. Mr. Tilton was present at the meeting on Friday and denied the authority of the church in his oase, as for four years previously he had not attended a meeting in Plymouth church, and was not a member. Mr. Beeoher said the investigation was in opposition to his own wishes and judg- ment, and that he believed it wonld re- sult in no benefit to any one. E necessity tor a remedy of the evils of transportation are so imperative, remarks the Chicago Inter-Ocean, that alt minor considerations must give way before it. Th interior of our conti- nent, the granery of the world, must have direct, continuous, and uninter- rup:ed outlets to the ocean, and to se cure this BO sacrifices can be too great, E I N operations in Wisconsin will be on a much less scale this year than heretofore. Firms that have not failed to take crews into the woods for the past twenty years will not lumber this season. W presume the same, will be true as regards Minnesota. Stringency in money matters is the trouble. E estimates for the running ex- penses of Ne York city and county for 187 4 foot up thirty-nine millions of dollars, which is an increase of only about ten .millions over the expenses of 1873. This illustrates the Democratic idea of retrenchment and reform. I looks as though France were pre- paring for aoother war. Th estimates for the War Department are very heavy, and new taxes are proposed. E O E II. S I has been ap- pointed Superintendent of the Lake Superior and Mississippi Railroad, vice W W. Hungerford, resigned. *m» E S I E N A N and Seoretary Richardson both deny emphatically that the latter is to retire from the Cab- inet. men were frczen to death in Nebraska, not far lrom St. Joseph, on Wednesday of last week. MOST of Jay Cooke & Co.'s creditors have signed the proposition for settle- uient pi escribed by the firm. E last State Fair failed bv just $1,00 0 of paying expenses. E A I S The Superintendent ot the Young Men's Christian Association of Boston announces that it is worse than useless for poor and laboring olasses to seek that city for employmontj that re- munerative labor cannot be furnished to one out of fifty of its idle thous- ands. One effect of the panio has been to throw oat of employment at least 20, 0 0 0 working girls from tho different factories at Newark,' N Jersey. Quite a number of workmen in the iron mills in Maine have been discharg- ed, and various manufacturers are re- ducing their working foroe. The majority of the mills at Fall River, Mass., are now running on halt time. Th Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railway, Company have re- duoed the working me of their me- chanics and laborers to eight hours per day. Th Domeslio Sewing Machine Company, at Newark, N J. has dis- charged 12 3 employees. The Erie Railroad ia reducing the force in the different shops along the line of the road, and the workmen re- tained have been put on three-fouiths time, commencing November 1st. Four hundred workmen were dis- charged from the Portsmouth Navy Yard, on Friday. The feather factory at Hoboken is closed on account of the scarcity of money. Tw hundred hands are thrown out of employment. Quite a number of workmeo in the iron works of Philadelphia have been discharged on account of short work. Various manufacturers intend to reduce their working forces. The woolen mills around Louisville have reduoed the wages of employees 15 and 2 0 per cent. Several iron es- tablishments have reduced wages on skilled labor and on common 2 0 per cent. E Eclectic lor November is es- pecially strong in literary biography. Whittier'a sad and noble oountenance loo* ont upon the reader from the frontispiece, and in the letter-press is an appreciative sketch of bis life while a brilliant paper on Jobann Frederich Schiller forms the leading article of the number. Besides these there is a fine e?say, biographical and critical, on Milton and, in another field, the im- pressive sketch of Madame de Main- tenon and tho Last Years of Louis will attract attention. In science there are papers on Finding the Wa at Sea Physical Education and Th Ringed Planet.

It is claimed that the increased receipts of the Post Office Department, on account of the abolition of the privilege, are more than counter- balanced by the inoreased expenditures ot the other departments. ss» he estimates for the civil estab- lishment of the Government, to be submitted to Congress this year, ex ceed those of last between 81,500,000 and $2,000,000. This increase is due to the inorease of a number of salar- ies at the last session. Th estimates tor the Internal Revenue Bureau are about $22,00 0 less than last year. he President stated Saturday that he should begin the preparation of some portions qf his annual message this week, but should defer the finan- cial portion of it till the last moment, ia order that the condition of the banks and the commercial situation might be referred to in the light of the latest events. he amount raised by taxation in this country, last year, by direct taxa- tion for the support of schools was $7, 000,000 I is estimated that $20. 000,00 0 more were spent for private instruction at academies and colleges, and more than 810,000,00 0 were vol- untarily given as donations from pri- vate individuals to institutions oi learn- ing. he schooner Hungarian, whioh arrived down yesterday, reported a singular occurrence.
