In the Third Ward, a prominent Democrat brought up two "canallers" to vote, who promptly answered, when closely questioned, that they "had been in the ward, one 10 minu'es and the other 20 minutes" and that their home in winter was wherever their boat froze up.

The Election In pley. CorresDondence of Th Beacon 1 Copley, October 11. Election passt off quietly, as usual. '1 he only event of importance that occurred during the day was the appearance in our midst of a "sore head'' Republican from Akron by the name of Henrv Hanson, who was en-gsgel in 'he lu inc-s of peddling scratched tickets, eramog the name of A. Lane lor Sheriff and placing Wallace Harrington in the place.

HU contemptible purpose was jon discovered by a vig ilant Republican, who gave him to understand in plain terms that his presence was not desirable nor his mongrel ticket needed that the intelligence of Copley ctuld run their own election affairs. It cost D. Paige more than a score of votes In Copley. X. A Nest of Dieonrged Democrats.

Uilcrest 8708 It will be seen, by a study of the tables, that Boynton ran 91 ahead of his ticket Evans 40 behind Hale 9 ahead Monroe 123 ahead Lane, 612 behind Paige, Democrat, 723 ahead of Bell Stuart 2 behind Brawn 86 ahead Frederick 20 ahead. Monroe, therefore, leads the ticket, by the handsome majority of 1,235, his gains being as follows: Akron, Fourth Ward, Bath, Cuvahoea Falls, 11; Franklin, Hudson, North field, Northampton; Portage, Stow, Tallmadge, Twinsburg, 2. His losses are: First Ward, Second Ward, Third Ward, Fifth Ward, 8ixth Ward, Boston, 10, Copley, Spring field, 4 Total losses, 23 gains, 44 net gains, 21. ills opponent, Jonn J. Hall, runs behind in every precinct except Bos ton, where he gains 6, and in Green, Norton, Richfield and.

Springfield, where he simply holds his own. His losses are as follows; First Ward, 12; Second, Third, Fourth, 12; Fifth, Sixth, Bat, Copley, Coventry, 3 Cuyahoga Falls, 13 Franklin, Hudson, Northfield, Northhampton, Portage, Stow, 4. Total losses, 108; gains, net losses, 102. This added to Monroe's 21 net gain, gives him his total gain of 123. A noticeable fact shown by this is that almost all of Hall's losses are clear cu's, the Democrats evidently preferring not to vote for anybody rather than for Hall.

For Treasurer, Seymour's ioases and Paige's gains are shown in the following tabie: f. Seymrnr's Losses.

Hoasebreaking Extraordinary. From Tuesday's Dally Beacon. As predicted, on the arrest of one of the Cleveland pickpocket gang in this city last week, they have returned from the Orrville Fair and made a raid on Akron. That this raid was well planned, the evi dences of last night prove. The residences of the following persons received the attention of the thieves: W.

A hasty glance through the pages of the pamphlet reveals the that where the Doctor sees anything to criti cise, he does not hesitate to use criticism, nor does he look around very long for words, but comes straight to the point.

Will the Sooth Do It I Who Will Do It Last evening, the Rev.

Mr. Markham, of Savannah, Georgia, spoke in the Con gregational Church on the important question ot the progress ot education among the freed people of the South, and especially of the prospects for the encouragement of such education by the original Southern Democrats. Mr. Markham has been in the South for eight years past as a laborer for the American Missionary As sociation and speaks of what he has himself seen and heard. His were interesting and deserve attention, because the question of the proper education of the voters of the South has involved in it the future welfare, and possible perpetuity, of the Republic itself.

eludes only ths mere rudiments of reading and writing.as anything more would unfit them for normal condition." In proof of this, Mr. Markham cited the action of the Savannah Board of Education. That body was asked to appoint a teacher in some of the higher branches for colored pupils, so that they might be fit to teach, but voted solid against it, al though the American Missionary Association offered to supply the teachers without cost to the city. He also quoted the action of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, South, at its session in Savannah last year, as witnessed by himself. A committee appointed at the previous annual session, to carry on Missionary work among the colored people, reported that it had raised $500 during the year and spent half the money.

When asked why all was not expended, the answer was that the colored people didn't want to hear white preachers and that no one could be found to work among thoss people. Yet the Presbyterian Church, North, is spending thusands of dollars annually for this -very work. Another committee reported at the Savannah General Assembly, which had been appointed the year before to consider the question of educating the colored people. Its report was that it was not best to buy or erect a building, as it was not certain the work would be permanent, but recommended that a buildtDg be rented for $200 or $300 year and that two or three teachers be hired. Ihe report was adopted and so much provision made by this great church for educating the colored people of all the States in which slavery existed.

''THE UKI0N-" An Explanation and an Appeal. To the of Tub Bbacos: You have hinted once or twice in your paper that the friends of Ihe Union had a word to say to tne public, wnen there came a lull. There is not much lull yet, but lest there be no better opportunity, it you please, we will come right in here. Last Spring, after the OJd Fellows' din ner, we weie quite jubilant, being out ol debt and having over $200 in bank. This Fall, having been obliged to move, en- large and refit The Union, we are $1,000 in debt.

We have1, however, much better accommodations than before, and a lease for the ground on which the building stands for 5 years at the moderate rent of $lbl per year. You know that the building itself be longs to the Y. M. C. A.

and to the wom en who are interested in the temperance, benevolent and industrial work done in it. It is, therefore, proposed to divide the labor of raising money to pay this debt between the young men and the women, and as the money is due and women do not like to pay interest, we are going about our part of the work at once. Yesterday, at a meeting held for the purpose, 50 ladies were appointed, each of whom, it is expected, will raise $10 among her lady friends. We do not intend to call 'upon gentle men this lime, partly because we wish to leave them for the Y. M.

C. A. and partly because we fear they are getting tired of us on' these errands. The ladies who were present took hold heartily and those not present wno were appoiuieu may expect to De be notified very soon. You will observe that this money is not for the Dorcas Society, not for the Ladies' League, not for the Y.

M. C. but for the building, in which all these societies have a home and to which every one who has not a better place to spend his evenings is most cordially invited. The time appointed for the ladies to bring in their collections is 4 clock on Monday afternoon, October 30. If more convenient, the money can be handed at anytime to Mrs.

Meach- am. It any lady should be overlooked who is willing to contribute, she will please let it be known, i One of the Fifty. Akron, Oct. 12, 1876. THE COURTS.

Today the above named gentleman with Messrs. Frank Adams and John R. Buchtel, are making a tour of inspection, in buggies, along the line of the road.

Summit Countv itself has no debt, which cannot be said of the majority of the counties in the State. In lb7o, Summit County was one of the 41 counties of Ohio that had no ''ebt, while the remain ing 47 had debts ranging irom l.ouu to S300.000.

The Right Sort of Fairifs. A remarkable discovery awaited the return of Rev. Dr. Smith and family from their nine weeks' absence in Illinois. They had left their house securely fasten ed and taken the key with them.

Going in on Thursday evening, tney soon came upon unmistakable proofs that the house had been entered during their absence. The results of the house-breaking were, however, quite out of the usual line. Cheerful fires warmed the well prepared sittine-room and dining-room.

The mocking bira, in iuu leainer and highest health, was there waiting for them. Nothing beside bim broke the si lence they expected should greet them.
