The tote is, prob ably, over 1000 less than it was last fall. In several of our strong Townships many of our voters have joined companies from other conn ties, in small squads who bave not voted.— Littlo interest was manifested. Mr. Cessna received a majority of over 1000. The rea* son for this was that his ooursa on the war mot with the approbation of true patriots of all parties. It was deemed by many Republicans that a union Democrat would be of more ser vice in there trying times than a Republican, because he could exert a greater influocee over these who are opposed to tbo war, on account of political hostility to the administration.— Tbo latest advices from Somerset County renders the election of Mr. Householder almost certain. Mr- Set rock is also elected. It is also supposed that Mr. Nill is elected Presi dent Judge. We bave no returns from ether parts of the Sute. *AN INCIDENT.— Notwitlstcnding last Tues day was one Of tbe most quiet and ordeily eleotion days that wc ever saw in Bedford,; yet a little incident occurred, tha\ oo account of the man, we think proper to notice . A short tune before the close of tbe polls, Mr. John Williams of this place, who has always beeD a Republican, cme up to vole, the edi- j for of this paper a.sked him if be had a Pre9U drnt Judge ticket, he replied that he had not, j we then handed hi.n a ticket with the name of Mr. Nill upon it, nhich he said suited him. whm Sam'l 11. Tate, Prothonotary, told hiui that that wag not tbe ticket he wanted, and fried to persuade him to take a ticket with the ' name of Wilson P.eilly upon it, this Mr. Wil- j liarns would cot d<">, and handed his ticket to ! one of the iofpcctois, aud the window was shut down. S. il Tate tbet hoisted up the window, sod demanded the icket from the . ir.sp ctcr, saving it wus uot the ticket Mr. Williams watt'el to vote, bnt that gentleman j e-iid it was, an 1 (be inspector put it in the box! In a year cr iwo this game S. 11. Tate will be out ag3~u for tfSse, and with tears io his eyes will desire Republican votes! BEDFORD* RIFLEMEN. Tbo Bedford Riflemen, under the command of Cixpf.

The company, before leaving were , addressed at fhe Court House ; by Dr. 0. N. ilickok, aud (ien. G W. Bowman, in quite el oquent an lpitiiotts addresses.

Pa. letter ot Kx-I'resldcut Ituciianon WESTCHESTER, PA., Friday, Oct., 4. At the great Union meeting at Hayesville, Ches ter county, on Ihe Ist iust. the following lat ter from cx President Buchanan was read: WHEATLAND, near LANCASTER, PA., Sept. 28. Dear Sir:—l have teen honored by your kind invitation, as chairman of the appropri ate oommirtee, to attend and address a Union met ting of the citizens of Chester and Lan caster conutiev. to bo held at Hayesville, on the Ist of October. This I should gladly accept, prooeoding as it does from a much valued portion of my old Congressional district, bat advancing years and the present atate of my health render it impossible. You correctly estimate the deeD interest which 1 fee], in common with the citi z -us who will there he assombled, in the pres eot condition of our country. This is indeed serious, but our present mili tary reverses so far from producing desponden cy in the minds of a leyal and powerful people will only animate tbem to mere mighty exer tions in sustaining a war which has become inevitable by tho assault of the Confederate Ststes upon Fort Sumter. For this rcaeon, were it possible, waiving all other topiis, ( should confine myself to a solemn and earnest appeal to my countrymen, and especially those without families, to vol unteer for the war and join the muny thousands of brave and patriotic volunteers who are al ready in the field. This is tbe moment for prompt, CDergetio and united action, and not for tbe discussion of peace propositions. These we must know would berejeoted by the States that have se ceded, unless we offer to recognize their inde pendence, which is entirely out of-the ques-. tion Better oounsels miy hereafter prevail, when those people shall be eonvinoed that the war is conducted not for their conquest or subju gation, but solely for the purpose of bringing tbem back to their oiiginal position in the Ua ion, without impairing in toe slightest degree any of ihoir constitutional tights. Whilst, therefore, we shall cordially hail their return under our common glorious fl.g and welcome them as brothers, yet until that happy day shall arrive it will be our duty to support tho President with ll tbe men aud means at the command of the country io a vigorous and successful prosecution of the war. Yours, very respectfully, (Signed) JAMES BUCHANAN. TBE MILITARY POWER OE NEW YORK STATE. WASHINGTON, Oct. 5. At the request of Hon.

George Gibson, Couimissary-Uoner al of Subsistence in the Uuited States Aruiy, died yesterday at his residence iu Washington, iu the eighty-sixth year of his age. He was probably the oldest officer iu the servioe. He was un older brolher of the late Chief Justice Gibson, of this State, and a sou of Lieuten ant Colonel Guorgo Gibson, who served gal lantly iu the Revolutionary War, and received bis death-wound at St. Clair's defeat iu 1791. He eutered the army as a captain of infantry May 3J, 1808, his first commission bearing the same date as that of Lieutenant Colonel du rrng the war with Great Britain, after wbiob his rcgiuieut was disbanded in 1815 he was appointed Quartermaster G.neral with the rank at Colonel, aud was assigned to the Southern division of tbe army under General Jackson. In 1826 lie received the brevet rank of Btiga diet-General, and in 1848 that of Major Gens oral—the latter "for meritorious conduct, par ticulaily in the perfoimance of his duties iu ihe prosecution ot the war with Mexico." Tbta is a brief statement of the public service of a ui-u who avoided notoriety, but contend ed himself with tho most exemplary perfor mance of his duties to his country never had a mote faithful and loyal officer than General George Gib.-on. In spite of physical intiiiui" ties, his mind his been clear to comprehend all the terrible treason at Washington of tho iasc administration, and all tbe uiomautous events of tbe pres nt summer; and the deep distress an 1 shams that he has felt ut seeing tbo government betrayed aud plunged into civil war, have shown how dsirly ho lovuJ tho country he had so long served. General Gib sou wis eminent for his social qualities. Ills mind was quick aud vigorous, bis bout wa singularly warm aud generous. He h>d a memory stored wi.k facts about pub.ta uieu and tthent our national history, extending even to tbe Revolution, and bis reminiscences wero remarkably interesting to a younger generation. Having never married, his circle of intimate friends consisted of army offiaeis and old citi zens of Washington, who loved and respected htm, und of the family of his old and valued friend, the late Dr. Hunt, to whom be Ins always shown the warmest attachment. His character wis so pure and his honor *o spotless, that he hid tho rospeet and confidence not on ly of members of the Government, but of all who ever bad his acquaintance. General Gibson wss born at the old home stead, in Sherman's Villey, Perry county, for merly Cumberland county. The property re maius in possession of the family of au older brother. It Was bis yearly habit, wbiie bis health allowed it, to visit CumberUnd county in the summer, to see bis relatives and in dulge in bis favorite sport, trout-fishing: and bo seldom failed to cross tbe North Mountain and pass a few days amid the scenes of his youih in ShvrmuTs Valley. PeutisjivacLus should respect his memory, aud all who knew him will do NO. He was tbe favorite brother of the late .distinguished Chief Justice; the son of a noble offiier who died for his oouu trv, and was himself an honest man and a most faithful pub u stviu: — P hita.

He succeeded in making bis escape by assuming tbe disguise of a rebel officer. He prepared two good-siz od packages, and fastened them with elabo rate ir .iei) seals, directing one to a prominent Secee-ioti leader in Hemps ead county, Atkan s is, ; inl URN other to BJI . MeCulioch, where evcr bo inifcbt be. He pur. based a horse and accoutrements aud having, one night, honied bis major's unrfotai as the store, be took a steamer for the Red river. When he arrived at the mouth, be transferred himself and bis traps to a smaller host, and proceeded up Red rivor as far as Fulton, litre 1 e landed and took to horse. He passed through Sevier county and a putt id Polk into tbe Indian Ttint. ry, bi.i Secession uniform nnd bis des pa:eh it Mct'u loch proving a sufficient pass poit. He finally reached Fort Scott, and front thnnce came up through Kansas to St. Jo ej.h, where he took to tbe rails, which brought him to this city. As soou us he caiue iu view of the stars and stripes, he exobunged bis military lor * civil suit which be bad brought iu uis traveling-bag. lie did not stop to leave bis despatches, but deposed of them while at Fori Scott! Mr. Wright brings no special iutelligcoco of importance. The Secession leaders are very close about the army and the operations iu Virginia, and they kuow but little more about tuein in Louisiana (buu we do at ilie North. Il;s tefi-reuees are, from tbe number of meu who have goue from Louisiana, that the rebel foice is nt least 200,000 siroog.— Hut tew recruits were going forward, as alt that it was thought safe to spare fruui borne service uie alteuhy with the ui&iu army, or iu Tennessee anl Missouri. There was a strong Union Jesting in Louisiana, but it was sup pressed; ret r aJy to break out wbeuever a sufficient Na.'ioual fotce for protection 6bould appear, ibe blockade tf tbe Mississippi was drawing closet Btill, vessels eontiuue to ar-. rive aud depart through the "passes," though not so fnquently as formerly. The slaves were quiet, but the inhabitants Were under constant apprehensions of a rising, home considerable iusurroetious bad taken place, but they were speedily put down. The bad ness ot New Orierus was prostrulcd, and there was Do thing doing excrpi in the necessaries, aud these were scarce and high. The poorer class tutteieJ terribly, but most of tbe men had goue to the war. The banks bad suspen ded, and were anticipating, a seizure of their specie (ot which they held some §12,000,000) by tbe Government. There were great fears of an attack upon ibe city by a naval expedi tion, and preparations for defense were making ou quite au extensive Bcale. Mr. Wright con firms ihe reports of tho employment of fbe inuian tribes of the Southwest by the Seoea. stonists. They expect, to bring iuto'the field from five thousand to teu ibuueWuH' warrrors.
