C.-Fox, Portage, Boston, Nov. 27 Just before the Presidential election, when par. ty politics were at their height in Newton, and when the Blaine men were willing to make any kind of a bet, so certain wero they of the election of the Republican candi date, an agreement was entered in to betweon Ghas. A. Hill and Dr. Fred W. Webbor, of that city, that in tho event of the election of Cleveland Mr. Hilt was to oat a crow, and if Blaine was the sue cessfui candidate Dr. Webber was to perform a similar act. A crow was shot yesterday, and this morn ing the bird was taken to Young's Hotel7%here it was prepared for the feast. The bird was nice snd plump, and not one of the “poor as a crow” kind. Mr. J. T. Ford, tho steward, stuffed and roasted the bird, whioh when ready for the table, was about two-thirds the sizo of a roasted grouse. About twenty other men fist At the table and enjoyed a square meal while Mr. Hill ate his crow. On the front of the menu .carcl was the following : Young's Hotkl, Saturday, Nov. ‘22, 1881. Duinr Crow Dinner. C. A Hill, Mivttiuator of the Bird. Dr. h\ W. WEimF.it, Winner. On the back was tho following song, which was sung by tho com pany: Tbero wiu n young man from Maine, Who made a rash bet upon Blaine. Ho said he'd eat a crow if I lie State did not go For Jamo.i G. Blaine of Maine, NEW YORK. Cleveland’*Ke»tffuntlou-IIe lain Step New York, November 28 Tho vexed question of Cleveland’s re signation bus been finally settled and it will tako place on the 6th of of January. IIu desired to resign at as early a date as possible so as to give Lieut. Gov. Hill the oppor- tunily of sending the annual mes sage to the Legislature, hut there was some doubt as to his right to resign be loro the assembling' ol that body. The law provides that the Governor’s rcsignaUqu sbalj.be transmitted to the Legislature, and some of the friends of Cleveland thought it had better bo complied with to the letter. The question <vn9 finally, submit ted to the Attorney General, and he decided that the law would be fully complied with by filfng : tho resignation with the Secretary ol State, who would transmit official ly to the Legislature when it met. The Lieutenant Governor is now,si the Hoffman House in this city, lie Baid last night that the .matter had iioen settled, ahd'ltc would as sume the Gubernatorial office on the 6th of January. ,-i , Mr. Hill had dieted for a day or two in order to get up an appetite for crow, but when tho smoking hird,dono just to a turn, was sat before him the tu9k proved an easy one. Ue ate all except the bones with a good relish. A grouse, cooked in tho samo way, was then set beforo him, for gas tronomic comparison. Mr. Ilili declared the first bird to have been of bettor flavor. Tho company thereupon began to lay wugers that Mr. Uill had eaten no erow at all. That was tho impression un til tho steward was sent for and solemnly affirmed that tho first bird was a genuine crow. Mr. Uill, therefore, like some more prominent Massachusetts politi cises early in the Republican cam- paigtt, not only nte his crow, but declared that lie liked It. Wanted Education.

New York, Dec. 1.—A special to tho Daily News from Springfield, HI., says: The state canvassing board today completed its work and decided tho contest in the thir teenth legislative district In favor ot Mutheran and against Kiupp, This will make the legislature a tie on joint ballot, in ctso Leman, re- publican, from the Sixteenth dis trict, is seated, or will give the Democrats a majority of two in case Brand, democrat, of the same distriet, is givon the scat. Kiupp claims that ninety votes for him in the Nineteenth precinct of the Fourteenth ward wero counted for his opponent, and Bays ho will pre sent the case to the United States grand jury or will contest before the senate attu both tho county and state canvnssing boards. The' facts were siiown to be llmt by a clerical error Kiupp was originally given ninety voles too many. As both Kiupp and Mutheran are demo crats, tho complexion of the legis lature will not be changed in their case. Governor Hamilton will an nounce his decision in the Brnnd- Leutan case to morrow. The following amuiihk Incident is related by the Jackson News: “For some time past tho wood sawed for use at the steam ginnery near the place of A; MoWatklns, Sr., was being missed by the pro- pnetor. In order to catch up with the thieves, a number of sticks of wood were loaded with powder and left in a convenient place. One night last week, Dan Robert!, a gentleman ot color, who live* on Mr. McWatkin’s place, was sitting by the comfortable Are in Mb cabin in company with several other ne groes toasting their shines and cracking Jokes, when suddenly an explosion took place, In the midst of the lire, scattering burning wood, coals and bnt embers over the darkies and tho cabin. A gen eral stampede for the door took place, the darkies almost frighten ed to death, and probably thought that the day of judgment bad come. No material damage was done, but Dan will probably steal no more sawed wood front the gin, nery. How He Bought Ills Freedom. It has always been thought that ears of corn have an even number of rows, nod one with an odd,num ber of rows, would bo impossibility. In slavery times this question was discussed, and a negro in Kentnoky claimed that he bad seen ears of that kind. His master told him be would give him bis (the negro’s) freedom for un ear with an odd number of rows. This was in the early spring, but in the fall, during earn gathering time, the negro came with a sound car of corn with thir teen rows. He got his free papers. A long time afterward the old ne gro said that in roasting-ear time he took a sharp knife, out out the one row of grains, bound the Car together, and knew Just where to find it wen gathering time came.— Peoria Journal. Qalte a Difference. , itochaater Union and Advortlm <D*m.). As Mr. Attorney General Brew ster olcariy indicates, it has beeu impossible for the RepuMloan ele ments that form 'the controlling power at Washington to reform themselves, because all were more or le» associated with and involved in the wrong of the wrong doers. It will be different when Gov. Cleveland lakes the Presidential chair and surrounds himself with men free from such entangling al liances, and when Congress shall exercise its exclusive power of leg islation over the district to the de sired ends.
