Senator VoorLees has been figur ing on the Ind'aua eket'on and he has concluded that the democrats will carry the s’ate by f'om 10,000 to 15.000 majority. Mr. VooGiees does not give the rule by which he obtained this result, but it is probably to be found somewhere in the political arithine- tic. Several young men who move in the best circles of Montgomery, Ala., have decided to try housekeeping, without marrying. They have club bed together and have rented a house, which they call “Bachelor’s Retreat,” and have hired servants. Tbe plan won’t work well. It is an experi ment which young men, no matte/ to what olass they belonged, had better fight shy of. It is not diffioult to find out where tbe New York Herald stands w'th regard to presidential politics. It is for Cleveland and tariff reform, and it. is getting in some of the best kind of work for them. But has anybody heard it express an opinion concer. ing the contest for governor of that slate?

Tany, appointed by that old war horse of Democracy, Andrew Jackson, took the position which he was to so ably fill for twenty-eight years, and which was to give him a wond-wide fame. The ceremo-iies usedtc-day we/e exactly similar those used when Chief Justice Chase took his seat in 1864, and they were very solemn and impressive; in fact, every thing about the Supreme Court,, is to me, if not to everybody. The new Chief Justice made a favorable impres sion, although his physique is any thing else but imposing, but his face and head give unmistakable evidence of the possession of an ample supply of that subtle power which governs the world—brains. Two notable Indianians were in this city last Week—Governor Gray and Aquilla Jones, postmaster of Indian apolis. They both gave cheerful statements of the political outlook in the Hoosier State. They regard the State as certain for Cleveland and Thurman. Mr. Cleveland got a day’s fishing on the upper Potomac last week. He has given up all hopes of a vacation trip this year. Mr. Taylor, Ex-Minister to Liberia, who is in charge of the negro Demo cratic headquarters in New York, was over here Saturday. He says that every election district of New York state has a negro Democratic club, and that not Ipss than 240,000 negroes will vote for Cleveland and Thurman, in the Northern states alone.

Representative Wilson, of West Virginia, says that State will give Cleveland a larger majority than in 1S84, and that it will send a solid Democratic delegation to Congress. Tlie Republican tariff bill was taken up to-day in the Senate. There is no jiossible chance to dispose of it befoie election. It is probable that a few speeches will lie made up on it, and that sometime between the 10th and the 25th of this month a re cess will be taken until after the elec tion, when the fight will be resumed and kept up in a so>'t of a way -great ly dependent on the result of the elec tion—until the Fiftieth Congress ex- jiires. Nobody expects any kind of a tariff bill to pass botli House and Senate as at present constituted. Chairman Barnum was here Friday and Saturday. He 1ms no doubts of the election of Cleveland and Thur man. Representative McMillan, who has been making speeches in New York and New Jersey, thinks tbe outlook for a Democratic victory iu both states is very encouraging. The new navy is slowly mate rializing. The iron cruiser Baltimore was launched at Philadelphia Satur day, and the gunboat Petrel will be ready to launch in about teu days- The money appropriated for the navy has been properly spent under this administration. At least two Senators—Saulsbury and Stewart—one a Democrat and one a Republican, have put them selves on record as being in favor of the repeal of the oival service law. The discussion of a Senate amendment to the general deficiency appropria tion bill, which appropriates$80,000 for the Industrial Christian Home Asso ciation of Utah, an association for tho benefit of dependent women and children who desire to sever their al legiance to the Mormon Church, brought out the faot that the present administration is the only one that has ever taken any practical steps to break up polygamy, although the Republican party has since I860 regularly adopted a plank in their party platform denouncing it as a relic of barbarism. It re mained for the Democratic party through the present administration to take tho first steps towards the ex tinction of polygamy. Attorney-General Garland has re turned from his loug vacation much improved in health. Senator Beck has returned from Fortress Monroe somewhat improved in health, but not well enough to resume his Congressional duties. As eleotion day draws nearer, the attendance at the sessions of the House gets smaller and smaller. Busi ness requiring a quorum has long ago been abandoned, and If a recess is not soon taken—all hopes of adjourn ment having been given up—there will not be a dozen members in at tendanee. Senator Voorhees has gone to In diana to remain until after the elec tion. He will speak every day. The friends of the Oklahoma bill in the Hoase, while not numeroa3 enough to pass that measure, have succeeded in having the Senate amendment to the general deficiency bill, extending the laws of the United States over No Man’s Land, drop ped. The Good Work Of Xr. Smith’s Saako Bite Caro. A correspondent of the Willacoo- ohee News writes as follows in re gard to some wonderful oures In Coffee county, made by Mr. J. T. Smith’s snake bite medicine. Mr. J. T. Smith’s snake medicine is doing good work and giving entire satisfaction to those who are the un^ fortunate victims of poisonous rep tiles. The little girl of Mr. Henry Minix was some time ago bitten by a snake and was in a very dangerous condition. Mr. Minix as soon as possible securtd a bottle of the snake medicine and gave it to ids daughter, which, in a reasonable length of time relieved her pains, and at this writing is well. Mr. lV^nix thinks this snake medicine saved the life of his child. Also the little son of Mr. Benjamin Smith was bitten a few days ago by a rattlesnake and Air. Smith’s snake medicine being handy, was given to the boy and at last accounts was doing well—feeling but very little (lain. Mr. Smith lias had liis medicine patented and in a few weeks will be able to place the same on the market, ana we predict will find a ready sale for nil the medicine lie can manufacture. Mr. Smith lias effected several cures of rattlesnake bite in his neighbor hood, and can get the testimonials of those who have been cured to prove the virtues of his medicine.

Lamar, Cal vin and Fleming are a strong trio, and will be found taking a prominent part in the important legislation which will present itself next session. The county and oity will have reason to be proud of its represeutatiou when their work is done.” A cowardly attempt it was to assas sinate Edmonds of the Anniston, Ala. Hot Blast; and two other men were shot by one Lacey aud his rowdy ac complices, who were jailed. It occur red on the 8th inst., and arose from certain things Edmonds published about violations of the prohibition laws. The feeling in the city was in tense and strong talk of lynching was indulged in. Never were the people more thoroughly aroused, the coward ly attempt ntnssassination being most bitterly condemned.
