Elections iu November. —On the first of November the State and Congressional elec tions will occur in Louisiana. On the 2d, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Michigan and Illinois are to elect State officers and members of the thirth-sixth Congress. On the 4th, Wisconsin votes, and on the 9th, Delaware. In New York there are four tickets in the field, but the contest will be chiefly between the Repub licans, the Americans, and the Democrats. VII profess to be sanguine of success. Coming to their Senses. the Richmond Enquirer, the leading organ of •• Southern democracy" and for merly a decided opponent of protection, is advocating the manufacture of iron in that State instead of sending to England for it. Hear it: "Our railroads will soon want 20,000 tons of rail per annum to keep them in running order, independent of the great quantity that will yet be required to complete those which are commenced and projected, constituting nearly 1,000 miles, and requiring not les than 100,000 tons, or 10.000 tons per annum if finished in ten years time. This amount of icon— 30,C00 tons—will cost hut little h-s --thau $2,000,000 per annum if imported, and about the same if made at home under exp.- rienced management and at practical local! ties. But if impoitcd we mu-t pay rhe</ Id. for it, which would be exported, and therctor' we shouid lie minus the amount of p, cost r our circulating medium, lie t-u> - a, • ;; j \>f our available wealth, would be . ,in proportion. If, on the contrary, the abov amount of iron be made at home from our own material arid by the labor of our people, win ther t a iye or foreign, it residing in the S i ". -ieu it costing the same amount or >i ■. our wealth vv-.uld rmt be decreased,since a ui I siiii circulate at home among : the same as if it were never ii.-c: to in- mirpuse designated, while the fa cilities rendered hy our roads and improve ments would he even greater than thev can be or are under the exportation of our cur rencv for the same purpose. If it is con.-ti tutional for the State to construct public itu provernents, in the shape of railroads and canals, for the development of her internal resources as well as her external trade, we cannot see why it should not be constitutional a- well as practical for her to furni-li the ma terial for their construction. If she lut/s the material out of the state it certainly iniporer ishes the state to the amount paid, but if she makes the maternal or buys it at home it would neither impoverish the slate nor diminish her ability to buy or make more." In another article on the same subject it says: ' It that money, however, was spent in the Mate for the productions of our mountains tiiiU the labor ot cur people, instead of being ft dr n the currency uf tie St it would, cr> the contrary, tend to iucrease it. Keen sup, ,-.e we should pay one third more for fir fjiirr !ha,: for EnyHxh Iron, and spend $2 - . .)0,l>!<0 instead of §2,000,000 yearly, would tc-' not still be the yainer of £2,00",00b ' / ihe operation f As tony as the money is in the it is not spent. Suppose the iron for the Vngioia and leonessee railroad was made at Lynchburg—and it could have been made with proQt fi.r less than its actual cost deliv ered—would not the millions of dollars of gold which were sent to England for that iron now be circulating in the mountains if Vir gi.ti v, and would not our manufactures there be flourishing ? But what is done cannot be undone; still that which is to come, and that -vbict) is still to be done, should he eon-idered and done judiciously and understanding;v, and the question is jjqw appropriately L;'ou>'fit lu-t -re us. " He Enquirer does not speak of a pro tective tariff, but as that will keep gold in tilts country and start American furnaces, forges, and rolling mills, we begin to have some hopes that even the present free trade Congress will be driven into a revision of' the tartff by the recent elections.

FELLOW CITIZENS: —A great victory having been achieved, we desire, on the part of the committee of 7G, appointed at a meeting of the friends of the national industry in ail its branches, held in this city on t lie loth of June, to offer yu our congratulations, not only lor the triumph itself, but on the proof it furnish es of the following facts: That, in the necessity for protecting the far mer in liis efforts for bringing to his door the market for his products, and thereby econo mising the tax of transportation, Americans, Whigs, Democrats, and Republicans, have found the solid platform on which they may securely stand : That men of all pursuits of life—farmers and mechanics—miners and furnace men— laborers and capitalists—traders and trans porters—have arrived at the knowledge, that they have a common interest in endeavoring so to diversify the demands for labor as to bring together the producers and consumers of the country : That they are awake to the destructive ten dencies of a system, which burthens the na tion with a foreign debt that already counts L>y hundreds of millions—requiring the re- j mittance of probably thirty millions of dol lars, annually, for the payment of inter.st alone: That they are unwilling further to sustain a policy which condemns their own coal and ore to remain useless in the ground, while draining the country of the precious metals i •o pay for foreign iron : That they do not desire longer to be com pelled to pay for foreign labor, while Auier ican laborers are badly fed and clothed, be cause unemrdoved: That the belief in a necessity for total change in our domestic and foreign policy is rapidly becoming general tl roughout *tl e Stats: That it needs but union among ourselves to secure the permanent adoption of a system that shall restore } msperity to the people, harmony to the relations of the States, and dignity and character to the administration of the federal goverment. The power to a> c< nit iish such a change, feliow citizens, is in the hands of I'ennsylva nia, and it is needed only to't sh • eX'ueises it. Placed as she letwc-.-n the • rth and south—great as slit: is in her ii.-.urai resour ce-—powerful as slot is, by rest- n of her wealth and population—-he may. if she will, guide and direct the policy of the Union.— Blind, however, to her true intcrc-t*, she ha-, out too often, hound herself to the car 11 s .me ambitious and unprincipled demagogue who, in consideration of favor- to himself, has helped to sacrifice her dearest interests hmdsng bis aid to the closing of her mills and furnaces, and to the expulsion of her work men, and thereby depriving her farmers of ne advantages resulting from having a mar ket near at hand. The consequences exhibit themselves in the fact that she ha- had rune ai influence in the Union—her votes having been obtained by mean- of frauds, like that of " Polk, Dallas, and the tariff >4 42." while she herself, when asking attention to her in terests, has been treated as a mere pauper, seeking to be fed at the public t osb Such, fellow citizens, have been the effects of per mitting herself to be led, when -lie should have placed herself in the lead—< f endorsing the opinions of others, when she should bold ly have proclaimed her own. Hie true Pennsylvania p>Hcv knows no North, no South, no East, no West—it l*o~ ing that which tends to promote the good .if ail, whethoi farmers or planters, minei-* or manufacturer*. makers of railroad* or imn cr;< of ship®. It i- that p 'icy wiiich seek obtain perfect freedom f comtner-cnM, ngoui selves, and with the world at large, hy tii"a.- of such measures of protection as ba!i e, hie ail tu unite in the efFmt to increase the productiveness of the labor of each and ail— there being a perfect harmony in the real and permanent inn rests of every section of the country and every portion of our popula tion. That the existence of such harmony may have the chance of being fully demon strated, but little is now required, except another long pull, another strong pull, and another pull all together, by the men of the Keystone State. To that end we invite your iurther co operation-—pledging ourselves, that in the effort 1..r its accomplishment, our city will fully perform it- share of the work. Henry 0. Carey, J. \V.

We are pleased to notice that there is a general dis position manifested to place the Agricultu ral Society in a condition to meet its wants; but this can only he done by prompt and decided action. The project now spoken of is to raise, by stock subscriptions of per share, a sum sufficient to purchase a lot, the subscribers to constitute the Agri cultural Society. DEER KlLLED. —Captain Ross and Dr. Marks had quite a windfall in the way of game on Saturday last, while out hunting pheasants near Granville Gap, about three miles from town, the former having killed a spike buck, which was probably started by a setter dog and passed near the Cap tain. with an ordinary load of shot. It was brought to town, cut up at Major & Miimps slaughter house and weighed, dressed, 42 lbs. Since the coaling grounds have been abandoned and a few catamounts shot, there is a fine range fur deer between Black Log Mountain and the river hills, and signs indicate that they are there in considerable numbers. Rears arc- also about, so that sportsmen have a fair pros pect for " hunting." AV o learn that a hot for belonging to Josh. Morrison was found in the Gran ville region, apparently killed by a bear.
