Still, notwithstanding this emphatic protest of the people of Bedford county against Mr. Williams being their repre sentative, he (Williams) is forced upon them in that capacity, by the people of a neighbor ing county. We do not attach any blame to the latter for exercising this tyrannical power over us, for, doubtless, they believe that the law gives them the right to do so. But what shall we say of the men who made this law, that thus robs us of our rights, anil places us under the dictatorship of another county! What shall we say of that legislator who as a citizen of Bedford county, betrayed our sovereignty in to the hands ol others ? \\ hat shall we say of KUANCIS JOUDAN, who, w hen in the Slate Sen ate, for no other purpose than to serve his own |k>l itica 1 ends, connected Bedford with Somerset, as a Legislative District, when he knew that each of the two counties was separately entitled to one member, and that by linking them to gether, as he did, he would smother the voice of the people of Bedford county and make them dependent for their representative in the As sembly, upon the will of the people of Somer set ?

At the election just i held, the aggregate vote of the Slate, was only 369,'2+6, showing a loss on the vote of 18.'>6, of 91,1+9. The Democratic vote was 171,120; the Abolition vote, 198,116 ; showing a Demo cratic loss on the vote of 185G, of 59,590 and an Abolition loss of 31,569. It is plain, judging from 111 jse statistics, that Penn-y hania is unchanged in her political sta i tiis. She is still, as she has been, from her i ' ' earliest history, a Democratic State. The ! Opposition have not made any gains ; on the r.iher hand they poll, now,over thirty thousand i votes less than they did two years ago. They i heat us this Fa!! only by getting a fuller turn out than ours, and it will, therefore, be but necessary 1 for the Democracy to bestir themselves, at the , next election, to wrest from their foes the su j premacy which they have just obtained. JOiLY C. k'YOX. W ■ have before stated that we were surpri i sed when we saw so rank an Abolitionist as I John ('. Knox selected by a Democsatic Gov ernor as his constitutional adviser. We art still nio-e surprised to find that notwithstand ing Knox's speeches against regular Detnocrat i ic nominees—notwithstanding his conspiracy • with John \V. Forney' and other renegade Democrats, to defeat the very man whom Gov. Packer appointed to office and whose nomina tion l.y the Democratic party was brought a bout by the fact that he was ttie Governor's ap pointee — we repeat, we are still more surpri ! sed to find that afl.-r such conduct on the part of Knox, he is si ill suffered to hold 11is place as ' Attorney General and to batten upon the emolu ' ments of a Democratic Administration. Is ' Knox hi tter tiian any othef traitor, that his treachery should thus be winked at ? Does Gov. Packer fear his displeasure more than he does that of the great party to which he owes his present position ? Or, (as we have (ward it in timated, but which we do not, and can not be | lieve) does the Governor sympathise with the movements of his traitorous and disorganizing Attorney General ? ; HT" R -ad the interesting letter of Gov.

And so it w ill continue. The Baltimore Election. The Baltimore Exchange in an article on the recent election in Baltimore says : J "The fact that Mr. Swann has been re-elec | ted to the Mayoralty by violence and fraud is I less discreditable to our city, than the supposi j tion that he has been retained in ofii- e by the j voluntary suffrages of its people. The truth ! is, that there was no election on Wednesday, nor even the forin or pretence of one. From the opening of the polls in the morning until their close in the evening, in nineteen wards in the city, they were occupied and held by bands of armed bullies who, with comparatively few exceptions, as the returns will show, permitted nobody to vote who did not openly show and vote the "American" ticket. That ticket, moreover, was so marked upon the back with a ! blue chequered oi diamond shaped pattern, re sembling that upon the back of an ordinary playing card, that, however folded, it could be recognized without difficulty in the hand of the voter. By this means, the secrecy of the ballot was effectually destroyed, and the ruffians who guarded every avenue to the polls were enabled to tell at a glance whose might be admitted, and whose were to be excluded. Not content, however, with excluding legal voters', opposed to the election cf Mr. Swann, an immense quantity,—probably not 'ess than from two thirds to three fourths of the whole number polled—of purely illegal votes, were cast in his favor—not only inen but boys, frequently vo ting—nut twice or thrice, but ten or twelve times, —not only in different wards but in the same ward—not at different hours of the day merely, but half a dozen times in succession, with scarcely an attempt at concealment or disguise. Oilier votes were polled which Were purely fictitious —tickets being [landed to the judges, and received by them which were false ly represented to have been tendered by per sons in omnibusses and carriages, who were unable to get out and walk to the window. In short every trick or stratagem which fraud could invent, and every extremity to which violence could resort, were successfully employed for the purpose of electing Mr. Swann." KfsignaUon of Jntfg* Porter. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. iCth, 1858. His Excellency William F. Packer, Governor of Pennsylvania : DEAR SIR :—On the first day of your en trance on official duty, I received from your i hand a commission as a Judge of the Supreme 1 Court of Pennsylvania. The event then con- sicierfd possible, perhaps I should say probable, has just been realized. I have little to say ol the means which produced it. On receiving the appointment, I thought that being a Ju.ige, actually sitting on the bench and deciding on the rights of men of all shades of political opin ion, I ought not to write a political I- tter, nor to make a political speech. In the first place, I was not willing to hide my claims to the olli c , how ever small, in the shadow ola mere politi cal question. In the next place, 1 wa3 and am thoroughly convinced, by reading and ie fiection, that whenever a Judge can be elected by reason of his sentiments on any ques.i )n ol politics, that moment the real power of the judicial oliice will disappear. Possibly this may be very erroneous doctrine, very opportunely expressed, but 1 shall maintain it, while I pos sess a moral sense or retain a rational fjcu.tj. In the certain prospect of a defeat far more -disastrous, not one hair's breath of it should be ! abated. The reverse that I as occurred to the Party is of less consequence than we are apt fo suppose. The Democratic party is coeval with the (>ov eroment itself, and it" will exist so long as the Republic endures. Within its ranks men will always be found, who remain there only to do I with more success the work of disorganization ! The Party itself, though depressed, is not de- stroyed. The point of its lowest depression is I hat from which it will, of necessity, to; rise. At this moment, I solemnly believe it to j be the best and strongest political organization j which has ever existed for preserving the inter- , estsof the whole country. Now to the point. lam not weak enough to suppose that the enclosed commission has had; much to do in causing the present political ex- I citement. Nevertheless, it is plain that the people'of Pennsylvania prefer another person as a Judge of their Supreme Court. In these circumstances, it seems to rne a simple dictate ot delicacy andj propriety to retire from the office. ! In addition to this, I ought to state that there ' are* several important causes pending in which ! I wish to take part as counsel, and these require immediate attention. I, therefore, enclose my resignation. The office was tendered by you very kindly, without solicitation on my part. I resign it gratefully, and without, as I hope, having brought upon it a stain of dishonor.— ' p. ss was accomplished than I could have wish ed, but I am not conscious of an act which does not meet the approval of my own sense of duty. 'To yourself, personally,'and to those friends who j are sending me their sympathy, 1 beg to say, !in a word, that there is no cause for regief. 1 | return to a profession which 1 was conscious of ! abandoning too soon, and to a position at the ' bar as honorable as that which is now relin quished, and so much more remunerative, that comparison is out of question. Certainly, I ought to regaid it no hardship to exchange for the com torts ofhome, that wandering life which the law jf Pennsylvania compels her Judges to lead. Ifl have any regret, it is in parting with those pure and upright men, who will re | mam to discharge their arduous and unrequited I work. t..„jy^ hinrp the subject in detail, and in the course of a sympathetic article, says : We boast of our abhorrence of negro slavery ; we romance, we moralize, and we actually I weep over the tales ot African suffering, but we | can not afford a passing thought tor the millions i of white slaves w ho constitute the n.asses of our ■ iabd.-'Og population. What arethrse in reali i!y hut rfere animated machines ? employed ' only because it has not been possible as yet to I discover others to supersede them. As tfi-ir ! employment lias been the result of necessity, and not of choice, the great object of tire employ ! er has been to tax the physical endurance of the i employee to its utmost limits, and reduce the, j the rate of remuneration to the I >west minimum. 1 j Unfortunately, the fierce competition of trade, ; and the unnsally overcrowded state of tire labor Mar ket, combined to render this state of things j apparently inevitable. What have fbej Rained? fThe Democratic party has been defeated; but j to which of the opposition factions does the j honor of the triumph bel nig? It were hard to ) tell, and still harder to determine who is to be j the gainer by the triumph. This point and; tfi? only important one belonging to the result : —is well put by the Philadelphia Evening' Journal, an independent paper, in the following j questions, which it would be good for the honest I and well meaning voters who were deluded into i the belief that they would be the gainers bv a s chinge, to consider: •'But what can they reasonably expect from a conglomeration cf three or more feeble and 1 mutually jealous factions, which are induced to ! unite under a common name, here and there and now and then, without any bond of hearty; and lasting union? Suppose they carry an elec tion, can anybody tell who or what has tri unphed? In the odd jumble of elements, we j cn: not get any definite result. We can't de- S cite whether Whigs, Republicans or Americans j are in. the ascendant, while beyond the purpose ! of defeating ibe Democrats, there is no assurance ! tb* they will hold together an hdur, or sympa thise and co-operate in anything. Can such a poltical ]>of pourri of odds and ends ever come ! to pod? Can efficient power for ariy object \ whitever be looked f">r from such a source?" ' INDIAN- BATTLE ON THE PLAlNS. —lntelligence hai been received at St. Louis, of a desperate batle between the U. S. troops and the Camali clits, near Wachita village, in which Lieut.

Sat! Eveuf—Gored to Death by a Bull. The Rev. Samuel C. Parker of Hinckley, Medina county, met with a terrible death on j Sunday morning, the 10th inst. He was seen to go into a field in which he kept a bull, with a pitchfork in Iris hand, for the purpose, as is supposed, of driving the animal out. About an hour after, a person called at his house to invite him to preach a funeral sermon, and was direc ted by the family to the field where they sup posed Mr. Parker to be.
