THE ELECTION. The returns in last week’s News from the precincts of the county for representative were exactly cor rect. They are as follows: HENRY JONES Trion 73 77 Dirttown 57 120 Alpine 22 66 Teloga 21 63 Coldwater 27 96 Summerville 188 232 Seminole 32 61 Dirtseller 41 41 Subligna 15 136 Haywood 5 45 Totals 481 940 Majority for Jones, 459. The official returns were received here in the order tliat they appear above, Trion being first, followed by the others in the order named. Al though before night it was univer sally conceded that Jones would be elected, yet the large majorities lie received, as they were made known, created universal surprise. At about 5 p. in., when Jones’ success was assured, some of his enthusias tic adherants placed him in a buggy and hauled him through the streets amidst great cheering. TU' e Henry supporters, though badly beaten, proposed to die game. Some of them putlsam Echols, colored, a strong Henry man, in a buggy and rode him down the street amidst cheering and laughter. The result of the election was a great surprise to every one. It was thought by some of Jones' support ers that Henry would be elected by a small majority, and those who thought otherwise never dreamed of Jones being elected by a vote of nearly two to one. The following is the vote for gov ernor and state senator. While the total vote of the county for repres tative was 1,421, yet Gordon receiv ed only 836, which is a heavy cut, and resulted from his action in the Henry Pope case. GORDON. HARRIS. Summerville 276 385 Trion 113 137 Teloga 15 68 Alpine 56 80 Dirtsi Iler 68 78 ! Seminole 71 92 Coldwater 92 123 Dirtto vn 116 142 Haywood 2 47 Subligna 27 114 Total 836 1,266 The rote for the other candidates in the county was as follows: For Secretary of State, Barnett, 1,210; for Treasurer, Hardeman, 1,253 ; for [ Attorney-General, Anderson, 1,260; ' for Comptroller, Wright, 1,258. | The proposed amendment to the constitution authorizing the next j legislature to elect two more judges ' to the supreme bench did not at tract much attention. The vote against it, what was cast, was unan imous, it. not receiving a single vote. The vote on it was ns follows: FOR. AGAINST. Subligna 00 156 Summerville 00 20 Trion 00 27 Teloga 00 79 Alpine 00 80 Dirttown 60 02 Total majority against 364* The.* other precincts did not cast a vote at all for or against the amendment.

The amendment received heavy majorities in the cities, while in the country the vote against it was equallj’ heavy. It is probably de feated. Jack Frost has got as far south as Mobile.

On the morning of the 21st of August, 1888, the death angel en tered the family of Thomas and Elizabeth Littlejohn and took from them their little infant boy, Vivvie Palmer, aged eleven months. It is sad, indeed, to give up a little one like this, but Jesus says: “Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” About eight o’clock, a. m., the little bud, . so pure and tender, was plucked by the Master’s hand and gently borne on the pinions of His love to the celestial city on high ; there to “min gle in holier strains in realms of 1 fadeless day.” No more will the sunlight of his smiles, or the inno- ( cent prattle of his infant tongue, make glad his parents’ hearts and home. But in that bright beyond, the golden link now severed shall ; be united, which the cruel hand of death shall never break assunder. 1 We would now say to the parents, , be faithful and you will meet your : darling Vivvie in the sweet bye and 1 bye, for he is now an angel, a bright j shining jewel and once was a jewel to you but he’s gone—gone to Je sus in heaven. Ho is now standing I at the golden gate with his white snowy wings beckoning to you to , come up higher.

Bazainc who died in Madrid Spain, a few days ago, poor and un honored, rose from tho ranks to be Marshal of France. He surrender ed an army of 200,000 men to the Germans at Metz in 1870 and his countrymen thought then that he was a traitor and tried and sen tenced him to imprisonment for life. , By the aid of his wife he escaped , and now, although ho died in ilis- < ir rau!', it is generally believed ho . was no traitor to France but only unfortunate in his military oper ations.
