The returns received there, however, indicate the success of Ihe Republican State ticket, except perhaps, Iiatz and Gia ham and a Republican mhj ity in the legislature. CHiCAao, November 4 Specials to the Journal and Post and Mail say that the returns received at Madison, Wi consin, Ian night and this morning, uave decidedly changed the complexion of the election in that State and created considerable excitement. The Teaio crate claim that their whole ticket has been elected, Tayloi'a majority being small and that or the oilier candidates larger. The assembly is claimed by both parties, and will undoubtedly be veiy close. The Republicans still claim Ludington'd election by aviout3000 ma jurity. Further returns are awaited with much anxiety. Milwaukee, November 4 Returns from remote towns tha: have been re ceived to-day are generally unfavorable t y the Kepu dicaua. It will require the official rauva68 to determine the io Ult absolutely. LuJington, the Republican candidate fjr governor, is probably elected by 1000 majority. Tne rest of the Republican ticket is probably de feated. The complexion of the legisla ture is in doubt.

A Son of tbe (ireen InIc KiikosIuS Ula Time unit Tnleut ncruiii-it Masonry. Louisville, November 4. The Louisville Catholic Advocate, of to-day, contains the following: "It has been our fortune to be acquainted, years back, with a man who ia likely to be come notorious as a second Morgn' an Irish one, this time. Thomas J . M' Geoghegan wa3 ones a resideutof Lou's ville, and may be thus described: An alumnu3of All-Haliows college Dublin; at present about f jrty yecw of aga He is tolerably well educated, utTecting classics and poetry for weekly papers He was at one time iu our office to te?k a situation, and through the lcs'.iumen tality of a friend we found one for him in She'byville, Kentucky. This project was, however, defeated by the aidor of Mr. M'Ge ghegan, hrj, ere he airived iu Sbelbyville, was invited by an assem bly of Irishmen to address them, in de fault of a clergyman who had promised, but disappointed them. 'The address was toleiaoly well rendered, but the eubject chosen was in execrab'.e taste, in fact it was a tirade of abuse, tiu euppoited by any array of facts, of the Masons, and was calculated to irrifate, excite and do no further good or harm. We colU not help regarding Mr. M'Geoghegan as most eadiy lacking in discretion in thUB opeaing up this euh jict before a mixed audience, aud tbe result provtd that the gettleman wa3 not only lacking iu discretion, but ia valor -also. The next day a note awaited him with the significant signature of a skull and cross bones, notifying him to leave town, and the patriot brave meek ly complied with the polite request 3nd left Shelbyvillo without dwelling on the order of his going. Tlie Jllssonrl l'nclllt- ICniliiay. New York, November 4. An ad journed meeting of unsecared creditors of Ihe Missouri Pacific railroad was held yesterday.

The usual throng fi led the Brooklyn Rink this evening, and hundreds were unable to giln admittance. After singing by Mr. tiankey, Mr. Moody preached an elo quent nermon on the text, "Seek the lnd while he is near," from the fifty i:lnth chapter of l aiah. Ht rebuked tbe audience for their waut of earne it nets, and said he was tired of the half- hortedue3 which Was exhibited.

The Lon don Morning Post of October 23d has a govern r b en r0'JO:ed, os a means of prevent iu? acu e d stifS?, to resort to tbe meas ure successfully adopted in the last two war, namely: Tie e-tablishment of loan banks. The government has not, a yet, 3hown much disposition lo ac cede lo the request. Dittress is antici pate! among the indmtrial and work ing .Ia.-ed curing the winlti, and ap prehen non a-e also entertained of a cr sis in financial circles. The eame paper also says that the Russian corre epondenti to German newspapers give distreising accounts of the unparalleled failure tf this year's harvest. Never before, it Is as-eerted, has a fail ure been eo general in Russia, Utb ih geographical extent and iu com prehensiveness. AVith regaid ti the crops affected, the Russians ate still fa mil ar with the distress resulting fiom fiiling crops, in their experience of the Samara famine. That, however, was merely a local famine; the present is general. The entire cultivated zone is dsprived of tho expected harvest: from Orel to the Crimea, and from Tainbour to Podolsk, it is the came tsle. There is no proap est for help,and all are groan ing under the sn me heavy lead. In eth er yeais, when there waa a failure of crops there was relief of some kind, ba it cereal", or mots, or grasa. but this year all the crops baveeun'ered alike. Moody and Jinn It ej- in Ilrooklyn. New York, November4 The Brook lyn tabernae'e was only half fiTed this morning at the Moody and Saukey eer vices, a falling oil' in the altendance which may be accounted for by the rain. After singing and the ususl request for prayer had been read, Mr. Moody took :or his rext, No good thing will the Lord withhold froai them thatwa'k up lightly." It always seemed to him (Moody 4 that peorle come nearer to God whsn there viere but few gathered to gether, and he believed they were near to Him this mornihg. He hoped they would walk uprightly, and, as wa3 prom iaed in tbe scripture, nothing would be withheld from them by tho Lord. Mr. Pankey then sang, and Deacon William Richardson, of Dr. Fulton'a Baptist church, prayed for its welfare and the restoration of peace, and also asked the prayers of tho congregation.

Theccrj-to- w notifi'.d of the affair eb ut twj o'clock this tuornlug, and Is now piesnt, holdirg an Idciuds. Ti e particulars of tne affair ere, nn yef, vary meager, but as near as wccanleirnareasfoibws: D Robinson came o town yesterday, bought a new suit of cltthes, a revolver, aud went home, showed tha purchase to bis fam:ly, and eat hia supj it. His brother and another man were;., at his house, actl liabinBon "seemed Jo want them Jcave, aud finally perau&d-d them hunior, and appeared perfectly Bine. Some time bf er the men had left Rob inson remarked to his wife that it would have beeu well if little Dan, his son, haudiultwo weeks ago, and taUl he had attempted to ki!l the child. He thpndrewUi revn'er and fired at a second sen who was l i in bed, a-id then turned and sin ! ' -s wife. Ter rified and cr&z.d with fright, Mr3. Rbb iLson ran out cf the house, and ihe old est boy, eight years old, started to fol low; Robinson shot him in the fa.'e, but the bail glanced and failed to hurt him badly. The father thi n t-tiwk l.im in the back of tho head with a -liuir and made a bad wouud, but M e son suc ceeded in getting (jut of doors with his mother. Robinson f-.eo deliberately took a razjr from a box near him and approached hia 1 ttle girl, his only daughter, who was lying in bed, and seining her cut her turoat from ear to ear. He followed this murder by taking the life of theion,whombebad first shot in bed in the some manner. Robinson then jumped on his horse, and, up to the time of this writing, Lai not beeu hunt ed down. LATER. This mornjng a horse was fouud hitched at the junction, with no claimer. Robinson got on one of the night freight-trains on the I., P. and C. railroad, unknown to any on9 at Ko komo, and the dead bady of a man was found one mile, from Jackson's station at seven o'clock this morning by a son of the coroner cf Tipton r oanty, and was identified by W. W. Barms, who went to Tipton this morning on the freight-train, as thatof David Robinson, who committed the tenible deed last night. It is unknown how he met his death, but it is supposed that he either fell off or jumped oil the freight-car, and met instant death. His remains were brought to Kokomo by tho noon fre'ght train to-day. The Additional Fast-Stall Service.

Tho programme is a very atlect onu, and our lovers of mustc can promiw themselves a treat, both of instrumental and vocal music. i:-tiiivcrnor VanocN Lecture. Owing to the inclement wea'her, Ex Governor Vance postponed his lecture until tbis evening. "The Scattered Nation" is a subject ot much historic interest to tro peo ple and as presented by Ex-tSovernor Vance wtil be of great e joymentand instruction to the audience. This dlstiutu shed genliemau is a man or finished education and deepptutiy, and has devottd much time and rc-eaich in the preparation of the lecture which lie de II vets al the Gieenlaw Oper house to-niuht, We hope to sea a large audtence present, not only because of tbe lecture which they will be so highly ptr a -ed with, but as an evidence of tho appreciation onr peop e have for one of Kx-Governor Vance's recognized ability, and as ascholar and a s'atesman.and his e Units to Instruct and interest our citizens upon tha subjtc.or "The Scalteied Nation.'' The Tlicn ter. Despite the very inclement weather and the tmall audience at tbe Theater last n ght, Hrverly's mlnlRtrels gave one of the nio-t interesting entertainments of the kind that we have witnessed in wis city for a long while. There was no drag in tbe play what ever, even the few faux at f Primrose and West, In their excellent and ailtstlo clog dHuclng being too trlval to detract from their very clever performance, which alwayHudds to the enjoyment of the audience. Tlie vocal selections by JlessM Dixon, Roc, Rapier aud Frlllman were noticeably good, each piece ie cei ving appreciat.ve encore. This quartette is undouDtedly too best connected with any mlnstrel troupe now traveling. Their singing is of a higher order than usually heard In minstrel tioupes, audol such a character aitj engage the attention and elicit tlie praise of every" connoisseur of vocal music. The pro graa me of last night introduced Mr. Ilarlow fu one of the Ethiopian roles which is far su perior in its m'nutie to anything he has jet given. It fits him oxactly, and In no feature does he "overdo" or fall to reach what Is de sired to be expressed by way of illus trating the negro character. There are now but a few of the old original cornfield datkeys left, and it is not probable that in the next accade we can find any one among the miustrel troupes able to portray, as lie does, with such fidelity, tbe Ethiopian character In its true, ard to us, familiar phases. Most min strels overdo tbe character, and In their effort to please and amuse, substitute thi pleasant ries aud fictions of art for the somewhat com mon place depiction of the negro as known to us in his cntf&cflum dialect, customs, man ners and distinctive characteristics. Mr. Bar low, l owever. fills tho biU to pern-ctlon, and will thercfotc not only attract large audi ences, but be accorded the praise wnlch be merits as a delineator of tne old-fashioned negro in his most natural and familiar ways. Give us Barlow and his negro sketches and we will laugh until wea'y unh mirth. To night tho Uaverly nilusireis give another en tertainment, and will doubtless have a full house.

Editors Appeal In answer to the attack made upon myself by the AprsAL, on Wcmcsday, the thlid instnnt, I wish to an swer. Is ut just I f'el conndent that all wiio know me, my conduct and deportment, v ill sustain me. 1 am a citlaen of Tennessee, and but a few Weeks ago some designing men u ed my name In connection with getting up a tree train to Holly Springs, and the APfKAii at tacked me tnen, that I was going there to make speeches f jr the Republicans. This was all untrue, and, In my interview wita Colonel Galiaway, I .stated to him while 1 had been invited to go to Ohio and Mississippi, I considered 1 was not familiar with tlie local aualrs of these States to Interfere. This met Colonel Gatlaway's views, and the proper cor rection made as to tbe published statement, aed he concurred witn me upon the propriety of lnvldnals of others States dom so. Many Democrats did go into that date and take p.rt in the election. No question was raised as to tbe consistency 01 the action of tho Democratic party, but always a crime when Republicans do it. There i3 in tuls city a r.uinoer of colored men who act with the Democratic parly, aud I appeal to them I never uso any undue influ ence to chaoge their course. The worth less scamp (Younger), wboe statements are false, has not been in tbe United States but a short lime. He Is a -British subject, from Chatam, Canada, and not. naturalized. He came through here, on his way to Mississippi, a Bhoit time since, and stopped hero antl In quired iut3 the affairs 01 that State, and stated that ho found the most money on tbe Democratic side, and he believed they would bid the highest for him, aud he would have no tear of violence from their hand, and bet ter protection. 1 hese are his own words. On t he third 1 came into Mr. Church's place, and lie was sitting with voveral gentlemen con versing, boasting ot what he had done, and what ho had received dressed up with kid gloves on. Having heard mysolt ol his character, and knew ot his villainous con duct, I was, I must confess, In no good hnmor to hear the insulting language to all o' us present. It was not because he was a Demo crat that I spoke to him as I did. Many uoids that werecha ged to me ashavlngsaid I did not use. 1 use i.o profane words, nor cat ry weapons; but! did tell him that such men as him.and their boasting of 11 afterwards de.-erved lobavetaelr scalps taken oil' and throata cut, and that the clothes he had ou was then dripping with the blood of bis race, and lie a hireling for pay, and some of these men present have in their pockets orders to leave their State and homes by the conduct of such mea as himself. He seemed disturbed, and 1 told bim no one present would interfere acd harm htm, for I alone was responsible for what 1 said, aud I have nothing to retract. I came away, and was surprised to hear in aa hour after his pretending to be under the pro tection of the police. When, the police had come and gone Mr. Church ordered hlra to leave his linuse, being satisfied he was a rascal and trying to make capital for himself, and knowingit was not the intention of any one or myself to harm him. If I had intended to tesent his remarks, I shonld have done so at the time, and would have done it if be had replied to me as he did to others, no ouo has any fear of being stabbed in the back or dark by me. Younger, when he ca-, goes abroad Irom Canada to be a dead-beat, for it was but a few months ago ibat he kidnapped a brother mason's wile at Louisville, and fled to Ht. Louis. When, found he was kicked out of his boardiniihouse, and then staited for Missis sippi. This is the cbaracter of your black Democrat, whom the whites of Mississippi in vited into their narlois (so he saldl: and fur ther, he was not offensive. It toe, surprise me, Messrs. Editors, that I am so often at- tacked in such language as is used, wheu I am known to you ali and the citizens of Mem- , phis. This done on the statements of strangers, whom we know to be traveling I rogues; and tbis is the man whom it took a 1 newspaper reporter ana iour policemen to protect while 1 was at home" and asleep. I am a Kepublican, and indorse its principles, and all honest and upright men who belong to It. I will add, I also indorse all Democrats worthy of respect, black or white, who act from principle. The following is jour arti cle: "the intimidation by negrofs and Radi cals is past, and It is better for Brunt and El. Shaw, and their gang, to go out of Memphis when they attenut this." I do not know Brunt, aud it is not tte first time I have been ordered to go by secret notice aud tho city pi ess. I have not gone because I havo com mitted no ctlme, and therefore have no feais from tareats and attempts of Intimidation f.om no man. ISDWARD HH A.W.
