Every Republican in Cass county
did his duty on election day. and for
two weeks before. Never was work
better dons, nor with more satisfactory
results. We have carried the County
by the largest majority ever before
given, which amply repays every one
for the efforts he has made to accom
plish this result. Il wns owing lo the
thorough organization of the party
that we gained so tigrnal a victory.
Personal differences and dislikes were
thrown aside for ihe general good,
and the result is glorious Every man
worked with a will, feeling that the
grand suixf.'s we had determined to
achieve might depend solely upon hi
elTorts. Remember, in future cam.

can do if they will it.

WHAT DUOS IT IEA. I
The Philadelphia Ledger publishes
ihe following, dated Washington, Oc
tober 10th :
The President has sent to the Attor
ney General the following questions
and requested a response to be return
ed in writing :
First. Is the present Congress, com
posed of members from the Northern
S ates alone, such a Congress as the
Constitution requires, or is il an tllegiil
and in. conM. tutional assemblage?
Second. Would existing circumstances
justify the President in sending his
next annual message to an illegal and
unconsti'utioal assemblage pretending
to be ihe Congress of the United Stalest"
Third. Does that clause in Section 5
in the Constitution wh:ch makes each
Houe the judge of election relur.js
and qualifications of its own members
give to the present Congress the right
to exclude members from ten States, or
to impose dishonorable or unstituiional
terms upon th?ir ndmissi.m ?
Fourih. Does the President's oath of
office i t quire him to enforce those pro
visions ot the CoiiRtitotion which give
to each Stale an equal righi of repre
sen'atioti in Congress?
Fifth, What Heps do the Constttu
tion and his oath of office require the
President to lake in order in secure the
assemblage, of a Constitutional Con
g ress ?
The President evidently knows whin
answers wi I be given to his questions,
and puts them Hccorthngly. Have not

himself General. Santa Anna lias

President, and is now back again in

Cabinet mee ing Ttir-day, Seward
made a full exposition of Santa Anna's
intentions, and urgd extending such
moral aid as desired Another report
denies tins and says ihe mission of San
ta Anna was to convince the Adminis
tration that the Church parly is the
only one in Mexico winch can estab
lish a firm government there in case
of ihe downfall of Maximilliau, but the
question- has not been pressed iu ihe
Cabinet.
Nrw York, Oci. 8. Advices from
San Antonio, via Galveston, are, that
Santa Anna's agents are al work re
cruiting for a raid on Matamoras.
There is but little sympathy shown
them there, it being fully understood
that Santa Anna is pledged lo Napo
leon to acknowledge the French debt
if he succeeds in gaining a 'noting on
Mexican soil. V ery few have joined
hi standard as he is known to be in
imical to the liberal cr.use, and bis an
tecedents with Texas having always
been of a qtie-tionat'l character from

He was starved to death at Anderson

whom your "policy" would fain restore,
without repentance, to the head of our
Government. Since then I have been

Before the electiou one would hare
thought democrats believed the Consti
tutional Amendment one of the worst
things ever proposed. That it forced
negro suffrage on the Siates, and thai
it robbed the people of their liberties.
Now, they laugh al such an idea, at a
geod joke. They have no earthly ob
jection to the document; in fact, ihiulc
it just the thing. Query: Can any
p trty be right, or any where near it,
that acts upon ihis principle ? Can a
pany be depended upon as a safe
guardian of the national honor anJ
welfare, that will oppose a measure
merely because it did not originate
with them? Let candid men thiuk of
these things, now thai the excitinent of
election is over.

A there is a great deal of travel on
our railroads nt this season of the year,
we have procured the railroad signals,
which will be found interesting to those
who travel on the cars or witness the
movement of irai.ns, and ihe men who
iperale the roads may desire lo know
the signals are given by the whistle,
ny lanterns, flags and motions of lhi
arms. The significnioa is:
One whistle "Down brakes."
Two whistles ' 0:f brakes "
Three whistles "liuU up.'J

A sweeping parting of the hands oo

ahead."
A downward motion of one hand,
with extended arms, "to stop'"
A beckoning motion of one hand
"O back."
A lantern raised and lowered verii
cnliy is a siMial for -sianing;'' swung;

Mo stop;" swung in a circle, "Lack the

A red flag waved upon the track
must be regarded as a signal of danger.

energy.
Hoisted at a station is a signal for
the train to stop.
Stuck up on the roadside is a signal
of danger on the track ahead.
Carried unfurled upon the engine is
a warning ihat another engine or train
is on its way.
