WASHINGTON. THE ELECTIONS-RADICAL MAJORITIES FALL OFF. WASHINGTON, November 5.-The present cal? culations give tho Democrats 75 mamboo of Congress, a gain of 27. Californians here have no doubt thai the State is Democratic. The Democrats lose five representatives and gain three St&to sen? ators. Dispatches from the Western States show nothing interesting beyond a general falling off from the Republican majorities as first re? ported. A libera! calculation gives Seymour 93 electoral votes. General Canby relieves General Reynolds in Texas. He will also act as Assistant Commis? sioner of tho Freedmen's Bureau for Texas. The tank of 8hilb*ter's 6oap factory exploded, injuring two persons. An early change in the Secretaryship of the Treasury is probable. In Connecticut, Grant's majority is 3141. The total vote of the State is 99,000. In New Jersey, Seymour's majority is about 2000.

The excitement in the city con? tinues, and the citizens are on the alert for any alarm. Hopes are entertained that no collision will occur, as every precaufcjon has been taken by the civil and military authorities to prevent it.

Claiborne Parish, with only 1300 white votes on the old registry, gives 2900 Democratic majority. St. Helena Parish, with the same disparity in the registry, gives 1000 Democratic majority.

We publish this morning a mass of olection returns, which have been forwarded to us by our special correspondents throughout tho State, and we hope to be able in a few days to publish the full returns from each district. The table g ven below shows the Democratic and Republican majorities upon thc Presiden? tial ticket in all districts so far reported. Old Abbeville is declared by our correspon? dent to be henceforth a "white man's" district. At Ninety-six, out of 320 votes, only eight or ten were cast by colored men. Tho colored people did not desire io vote, and preferred to stay at home. It is reported in Abbeville that Governor Scott has anuounced that the voto from Abbeville, Edgefield, Newberry, Lexing? ton and Laurens shall not be counted, but we have no idea that such a thing will be done. Williamsburg is expected to show a small Republican majority. Only a few colored men voted thc Democratic ticket. In Georgetown County the vote for member of Congress was : Whittemore (Republican), 2679; Covington (Democrat), 266. The vote cast was 1000 less than the registered vote. Marion has gone Democratic by a small ma? jority. It will be seen by our Columbia letter that the Hon. J.P. Reed, of Anderson, (Democrat) has been elected to Congress from the Third District. Dem.

Wo quoto from John Stuart Mill's account of the style of the ancient writers : "The secret of the style of thc groat Greek and Roman au? thors is that it is the perfection of good sense. Ihey never uso a word without a meaning, o> 0 nord which adds nothing to the meaning. It never entered into their thoughts to conceive a piece of writing as beautiful in itself, abstract? edly lrom what it had to express; ile beauly must all ko subservient to the most perfvc; ex? pression of the sense. The perfection ol work? manship ia only visible in thc absence of everything which distracts thc mind from the main purpose, it was only in the decline of ancient liteiituro that ornament begi n to bo cultivated merely as ornament. Even descrip? tive epithets were one of the corruptions of style which abound in Lucan, for instance. The word had no business there unless it brought out some feature relating to the matter iii hand. Ornament for the sake of ornament de? feats the very purpoi^-of the speaker by call? ing off atteutiou from tho main object." This is the first grand lossun iu composition to be learned from tbe classical authors." -The annual meteoric shower is expected this year between the 12-hgaud 15th ol'Novem? ber. THE GERMANS IS SEW YORK. Their Growing Numbers and Influence -How they Thrive and Grow Rich Their Social and Domestic Habits The Music "Gardens" of the Bowery -Happy Scenes. From the letter of an observant correspon? dent in New York we take the following : Among the principal business houses in the city there is a large element of the German races. Take the great impoiting houses on Broadway, Murray, Warren and other ad? jacent streets, it will be found that a largo per? centage of them are either wholly Germans or have Germans in the firm. Some of thc best business men are Germane-some ol the widest known. In fact this German spirit of care, enterprise, tact, which animates the race the world over, has done much to give New York its wonderful commercial strength, and its joining with tho k:eo, nervous American habit, is the very suceess and life of the city. The leaders in the stock murket and on "thc street" are Gemiaus or German-Americans. Tho Mayor of the city has a German descent. Some ot the ablest lawyers are sturdy Ger? mans. Two of tho most euccct-ful physicians of uppertendoni were born and educ-led in Ber'iin. Om- musicians, in a Inrge majority, are Germans; so, too, are our best artists an i designers. Fur there aro no people that bring so much real culture to our shores, so much substantial worth, or so much capacity for all the varied business and enterprises of tho land as this class of liberally educated, right-mind? ed Germans, restricted at home and bound, but finding scope in Republican America for all their natural genius and fully acquired arts. And if there is one lesson we can learn from them beyond aught else, it 13 tho lesson of thorough preparation for the business ot life. What they know is well known. And deep knowledge gives them often tho start of us, with all our intense activity an I ambitious working. They are great people for making tho step in advance sure beforo undertaking it. But when it bas been taken it is firmly held. There are prominent examples of this "in the establishments of some nf our great business houses. They were commenced humbly, and slowly extended; but to-day thesj German princely houses ot trade are the soundest in the metropolis. Our German folks are very social, and very fond of amusements. During business hours they are hard workers, but do not run their work into untimely hours, or make the working day too long. When out for amusement they give it their whole soul. The rosidonco of the well-to-do German is fitted up for comfoit and pleasure. Father and mother enter into the sports and pastimes of the children. The old are as tho young, and throw off the cares of life with hilarity. tJjmo of the German homes in this city are really modela of domestic bliss. Tho father comes home at night, no do bt wea? ried by the day's toil, but he does not dive into the newspaper, and Bit mute as an owl all the evening, casting a gloom over the family circle, or perchance rush off to the "lodge" or "club," as if home was only an eating and lodging place; but, tho evening moal being over, games are proposed, dancing or singing is enjoyed, or tho whole family, baby and all, start ?ut for some musical br dramatic society, of which there aro scores, or to the German theatre, or quite likely to ono of tho large and splendid "gardons," where the best of music is com? bined with thc social meolin? of frieuds, and tho refreshing with mild lager, of which the "baby" has a full share. And it is by describ? ing ono of theso German beer gardens that 1 will conclude my sketch. \\uy those favorito places are called "gar? dens," 1 can't imagine, for they an all under cover, being spacious wooden oue-stoiy budd iugs, with high arched r:ofs. The interior is gaylv painted and decorated, and tho busts of great German poets und musicians and heroos arc conspicuously plac d all around. Thc one I will go to is known as thc Atlantic Gardon, situated on tho Bowery, uni tho largest iuNew York. Ii ba< sitting room for throo thousand people at the small tables, lt is tho brightest and gayest of thom all, and shows off this pe? culiar German amusement in the best light. On ono side is a nigh balcony tor tho orchestra, which nunib.-rs forty, and forty they aro of tho finest artists in thc city, for our German friends cin't tolerate anything but good music. Tho selections they play arc norn all the popular operas, including national airs of Europe and America. At tho tables wholo families are scated, drinking lager, eating tho Swiss chce80, (he steamed sausages, German bread and cakes, chatting merrily with oach other in their own language, singing bits of opera as tin band plays, very merry, enjoying a good doal, uud yet making no riot or confu? sion. Ovorhcad, sweet singing' birds are join? ing in thc ificc; thc fcuuluina arc sending U;J sparkling showers, which glistC? in the count? less gas lights liko so mar.y diamonds. Wait? ers are busy supplying the tables with tho clear, whito crested Jag'.r. Thc ;>moke of two hundred cigars floats 0:1 thc air. and tli3 clink of glasses is heard over thc garden as friends pledge triendd in many libations. Everybody is there, from tho hoad of the lamily to its most beautilul madchen. There is 110 rude? ness, no drunken quarrels, nothing but a wide? spread merrymaking, in which all joiu with in? tense enjoyment. Gradually tho groups sep?ralo as the hours fly hy; and when the hour of midnight is struck thc lights go out on tho joyous festival, thc garden is dull and bare until thc sands of timt; run round to tha evo ol thc morrow. Wmcn SEAM DOES RU EASIEST-THE WILL? COX AND GIBUS, on TUE LOCK STITCH ?-While it is universally admitted that the Willcox and Gibbs' uiachiuc is the simplost, and the least liable to get out ot order; th?t it mus tho easi? est, s??cst and fastest; that it requires the least skill to use it; that ils needle, hemmer and feller arc a perfect marvel; and tho ma? chine itself thc best beyond comparison, it is, nevethclcss, asserted, "by parties interested in "double-thread" machines, that "thc 'Willcox ?.V. Gibbs' Htich ia not reliable;" that "thc seam will rip-" that ' thc work will conic to pieces before the garment is worn out," 4c, &c. How these charges tally ?Uh the verdict ol thc jury at thc "Grand Trial at Island Tari; '-the fol? lowing extract from the "Report" of that trial will show : "Again each party claims that his stich is the least liable to rip by tho ordinary strain upon the seam of a garment in use. 'lui test requires a row of parallel stitching to be made by each machine, lengthwise, across a narrow strip of two thicknesses of muslin; and this strip is then cut across at every half an inch, making it into sm.? ihr strips, each as long as tho width of the original piece. Each judge takes oucof theso s-nall strips, and opening ihe folds on Ihe 'lock stitch' side, pulls on the ends in opposite directions, and thc lock stitch seam rips out. The folds being thus opened to the Willcox & Gibbs' seam, ho continues pulling, bnt this seam refuses to rip. He pulls strong? er, but this onlv tightous tue stitch; tho mate? rial gives way, but the seam holds last." And tho jury, in accordance with the facts, render the following verdict : "Its seam" (the Willcox & Gibbs) "has the peculiar advantage of b "mg readily taken out, when it is desirable; while it is less hablo to rip, in usc or wear, than tho lock-stitch." TEA AS A MEDICAL STIMULANT.-The last number of tho Boston Medical and Surgical Journal contains an interesting communica? tion upon the action of thein on the human system. Thein is an integral part of tea, and gives to that herb its peculiarforee as a stimu? lant, lt .6 also found in coffee, and incertain South American phills, whose leaves are used to prepare a table beverage. Ihe author of the article in question made several experi? ments 01 them upon human cases. It was lound that in every instance thc pulse was lowered, a nervous tr mu.ousness followed, and special mental activity was noticeable. Oue gentleman, nuder tho influence of this alka? loid, spoke enipha'ieally oflns "increased brain power, enabling him to read certain books, which ho ba j bo. oro accounted as abstruse, with thc greatest case, and nu extra? ordinary power of grasping the subject without any effort, as he read rapidly on." The to ttiaiouj of "one of the most powcrlul writers amongst om- No* E- g.aud women'' w also ad? duced. Ihr testimony ?va* to the i fi'jct that "some horns after taking a largo quantity of tea she felt that then- was nothing loft but her head, which furnished rapidly language of ideas of the beat quality, and in goodly.qnantity, j all night long." In Us medical form thein ia j employed as a nodative. This, by the way, ap? pears BomethlAff M?O a stroug allopathic en? dorsement of ??.ihuetnaii's theory. It cures neuralgic headaches, where pills ?ire objected lo. Tiicio ointment for the hair is found to Lave like effect.

No insurance. -Of sale day in Darlington, tho Domocrat s ivs : There waa a full attendance on last Monday, and considerable property changed bands at veiy low prices. -The Newberry Herald says: "The immense trains loaded with cotton which poss down the Greenville and Columbia Railroad, and whic'i require two engince- generally, one before and ono behind, to propel to then- destination, or tho termination of this road, gives good proof of tho abundance of tho great staple raised in the up-country, and the good priced roalized is making money matters easy with planters, merchants and in fact all classes." -Of sale-day in Newberry, tho Herald says : "On Monday last an unusually large number of persons from tho country were in town, which, with tho scoro or two of wa ;ous, filled with cotton and produce, lUSde tho scene an animated and busthng one. The business dono on that day fully satisfied our enter? prising merchants; all were busy, which, how? ever, wo are glad to say, is usually the case wita them, only on this" occuaion a little moro sn Ihnn common. Tho aalca of land by tho the commissioners, including two storehouso lota, were twelve hundred and fifty aerea, which amounted to $11,490." -Tho Clarendon PYJSS sayb : "With much regrot wo chronicb tho aorious wounding of our estimable young townsman and accom? plished i ruggiBt, Mr. J. H. Holiaduy, by tho accidentai discharge of a double barrel gun on Saturday, the 17th instant. Mr. Holladay had just left his store and atepped to tho win? dow of Mr. C. C. Thamoa' atore to ask about acme articles ho wished to purchase, when at that very inutant, a sun which sanie freedman hud lean od against thc counter slipped and fell to thc floor, discharging ita contents through thc window, mangling Mr. Holladay'a left haud terribly and also causing several shots to pen?? trate his throat. But for tho fact that the gun was loadod with duck shot and his lett hand obstructing tho force, ho would have been instantly killed. His condition ia very critical -very little hopea being entertained of his re? covery." BANKBUPICY OF THE BANK OF NORIH CARO? LINA.-A diapatch to tho New York Herald from Raleigh, North Carolina, November second, says: The old Bank of Norh Carolina baa been driven into bankruptcy by the creditors in New York, who demanded pa,r value for notca held against tho bank ii nd bought since thc close of the war. This has been accomplished by a Mew York ring, which, by attachment, took up every dollar tho oank acut to New York with a view to re-establish ita linancos. Tho liabili? ties of the hank arc about $300,000, mainly notes. Its assets will pay sixty cents, on the dollar. Property owned by thia bank, consist tug of rosin fi?las and cotton, was seized by Governor Holden when uo was appointed Pro? visional Governor, and sold to defray expenses ol'the Provisional Government; hence one of the causes why thc bank baa boen thrown into bank ruptcy. SLAVERY IN CUBA.-Thc committee of thc British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society has forwarded an address to the members of tho provisional government in Spain, in which they express tho desire that, while thc great boon of" political freedom ia acquired by the Spanish people, tho still greater blessing ot personal freedom at the same time be concod d to the slave population in Cuba and Po:to Rico. Such an act, the committee think, would ennoble tho new itovernmont, and not only ex? alt it in the estimation of the people of Eng? land and France, but would bring Spain into sympathy with tho other leading nations of the civilized world; it would also, in all probabili? ty, stimulate Portugal and Brazil to follow so great an example. A COLORED MAN RECEIVES FORTY ACRES OF LAND, &c., FROM HIS OLD MASTER.-Mr. Wil? liam L. Branson one of the oldest and most respected citizens of Sumter County, died last week.

Upon the coming ol freedom, Washington preferred to follow the fortunes of his old master, remaining with him and con? ducting himself with fidelity and faithfulness, and so also did the wife anil family of Wash? ington. During his last illness, Mr. Branson received unceasing attention from his faithful servant. NOTICE TO PLA.VTfciKS. SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUASO. THE niGHLY SATISFACTORY AND REMARKA?

I?-THE GREAT MEDICAL MISTAKE OF former days was an utter neglect of sanitary precau? tions. No efficient means were adopted for the pre? vention of si.-knoss. Sewerage was unknown in cities; drainage was rarely attempted in tho country. Heaps of offal were left to rot in the public streets, -nd domestic cleanliness, the great antidoto to fe? brile diseases, was sadly neglected. It is not so now. Wise laws, philanthropic institutions, and a vigilant sanitary police, have, to a great extent, remedied thc evil. Nor is this all. Preventive medication has helped materially to lesson the rates of mortality. It a hot too much to say that tens of thousands escape sickness in unhealthy season* in consequence of hav? ing invigorate 1 their systems in advance by a course of HOSTETIER'S STOMACH BITTERS. Inispure and powerlul vegetable tonic and alterative compris? es the extracts and essences of a variety of roots and herbs renowned for tbeir strengthening, soothing, vitalizing and purifying properties. These medici? nal agents arc iucorporated with a spirit absolutely free from thc acrid poison which defiles, more or less, all thc liquors or commerce, and their effect is dieu -ed through the whole frame by this active, yet harmless stimulant. The result is such a condition of the system as renders it ail but impervious to tho exterior causes of dis ease, such as dimp, fog, sudden alternations of tcmpcrture, ?cc. Strength, and the perfect regularity of all the functions of the body, are the best safeguards against atmospheric poison and the effects of unwholesome water, and HOTEi' TER'S BITTERS aie tho best strengthening and reg? ulating medicine at present known. For dyspepsia and biliousness they are a specific absolute.
