The - Election.
THE RESULT IN THE COUNTY.—The official
returns of the election for the county will be
found in to-day's Globe. It will be seen that
J. Simpson Africa for Assembly, and S. T.
Brown for Prosecuting Attorney, nominated
by the Democratic County Convention, have
been elected by handsome majorities. Their
success cannot be claimed as a party victory,
as without the votes of their personal friends
in the Opposition party, neither could have
received a majority of votes in the county.—
Their election shows that a nomination by
the Opposition is no longer as good as an elec
tion—that if the Opposition wish to succeed
they must put in nomination their very best and
strongest men—and even then their nominees
may be defeated, as the Democrats have men
in their ranks equal to their best and strong
est. Our candidate for Sheriff is defeated by
only 56 votes, Jacob Miller by 369 votes, J.
W. Galbraith by 372, votes, David Barrick by
117 votes, Robert Mcßurney by 282 votes, and
N. K. Covert by 405 votes. We would be bet
ter pleased if more of our candidates had
came out of the contest with majorities, but
taking into consideration the fact that the
Democracy are in the minority in the county,
we feel very thankful to the Opposition for
the officers they have given us.
We' have strived in the campaign just ter
minated, to treat all our , opponents with that
courtesy and respect which is due between
gentlemen. Our columns have been free from
abuse and personal detraction. If the pub
lic acts of an opponent were to be examined
it was done in such a spirit of respect and
candor, as to elicit the indorsal of our adver
saries. Thus we close the contest, conscious
that we have done no man a wrong, and con
fident that we have not sacrificed our man
hood in servile obedience to the imperitive
behests of blind and heartless party leaders.
The Result in the State.
The Opposition State ticket is elected by
at least 15,000 majority. This result should
satisfy the corrupt men who controlled the
action of the Convention that placed Wright
and Rowe in nomination, that voters will
think and act for themselves. The action of
that Convention has also lost to the Democ
racy, the Senate and House of Representa
tives, a State Treasurer, and perhaps a Uni
ted States Senator. In this county, the ac
tion of that Convention was repudiated by
the press, and we elect a member to the Leg
islature—again—while in some of the strong
est Democratic counties and districts the Op
position have gained Senators and Members
of the House.
Will the next State Convention be control
led by the same corrupt and proscriptive feel
ings as that of last Spring ? if so, the cam
paign, of '6O will certainly result as fatally to
the• Democracy as the one just closed.
SINGULAR.—During the last campaign, Mr.
Africa, our candidate for Assembly, was
soundly abused through the columns of the
Journal and American, and personally by
some, of the self-constituted leaders of the
Opposition party, and yet, at the election, he
received the highest vote given to any candi
date on the Democratic ticket. Gentlemen,
the people of the county didn't appreciate
your labor.
Last year Mr. Wigton's majority was 732
This year Mr. Africa's majority is 1.44
Change in one year,
THE PENNSYLyANIL LEGISLATUR.E.--The
Senate will stand 21 Opposition to 12 Demo
crats. The House will stand 70 Opposition
to 30 Democrats.
In our next we shall endeavor to give the
official vote of the State—Senatorial and Rep
resentative districts.
J Edgar Thompson has been elected
President of the Pacific Railroad Company.
Mar Mr. Mason,' Minister to France, died
suddenly of apoplexy, on the ad. inst..
OHIO ELECTION.—The regular telegraphic
news from Columbus is to the effect that the
Republican State ticket is elected by seven
teen thousand majority, and the Republicans
will have a majority of fifteen in the Senate
and twenty-four in the House!
Ser John Calhoun, Ex-Surveyor General
of Kansas and Nebraska, and President of
the Lecompton Constitutional Convention,
died at St. Josephs, on the 13th inst.
TRANKSGIVING.—Gov. Packer has appoin_
ted Thursday, the 24th day of November next,
as a day of general thanksgiving.

The display of articles in this class was quite creditable.
The ladies who are or have been teachers and pupils in the
Cassville Seminary, deserve special notice for the taste in
design and skill in execution of their productions.
There were a number of articles entered in the book
which could not be found on exhibition, and we regretted
that there were no provision authorizing premiums for a
number of very deserving articles entered in this class.
In addition to those to which premiums have been al
lotted, we deem it a duty to notice and commend needle
work, by Miss Newingham, Mrs. A.M. Massey, Miss Clara
Smith and Miss Matilda Slick: Ottoman covers, by Miss
Nannie Gwin, Miss Mollie Dopp, Miss Jane Dray ton, Miss
Bell Fisher and Miss Cath. Piper : Bead work, by Miss
Nettie Black and Miss L. Westbrook: Embroidery and
moss frames, by Miss M. T. Anderson: Hair work, by
Miss Savage and Miss M. A. Reed: Coral work and em
broidery, by Mrs. Gen. Lane ; and flowers cut in marble
by James Green.
We also find entered for our inspection, a live Rattle
snake, and though he handles his needles dexterously ; his
shells speak for themselves; and his coat is highly orna
mental with exquisitely blended colors, we cannot en
courage his snakeship's presence by recommending a pre
mium.

An "Architect's Drawing Frame," invented by Albert
Owen, and intended as a labor-saving machine for
draughtsmen, seems to be admirably adapted for the pur
pose.
A wagon, manufactured by Owen Boat, for the Hun
tingdon Baud, is an admirable specimen of good work
manship, and reflects much credit on Mr. Boat the build
er, Rev. Mr. Barnitz, the ornamental painter, and the
Excelsior Baud the owners. The whole " turn out," in
cluding 0 elegantly caparisoned horses, cannot be surpassed
by any town of the size of Huntingdon, in the state.
A case of finely finished single and double barreled ri
fles exhibited by the manufacturers, Messrs. Johnston &
Douglas, of McConnellstown, show great perfection in this
branch of business and we regret that no premiums are
offered for such articles.
M. Silkuitter, also exhibited a handsomely made rifle,
with globe sights, steel triggers, &c.
A two horse spring wagon made by Joseph Piper, of
Alexandria, is well constructed and in good proportion.
A corn sheller and apple mill combined, entered by T.
P. Love, Huntingdon, looks as though it might be a very
economical machine for our farmers.
Among the articles in our department was placed a
magnificent fossil, by Jacob Stouffer, of Alligrippus
Ridge. It was a thick cluster of stems of an extinct
plant known as the lily )incrinite, and was the finest
specimen of the kind we have ever seen.'
In justice to the chairman, your committee state that
the premimia for cabinet ware was awarded to him against
his wishes.

A jar of " Cra — wfOrdif late" and i'Kenrick's Heath"

The committee regret they have no authority to award a
premium for them. On account of the superior and abun

ums offered, the committee are unable to reward the exhi
bitors of this standard of fruit as they deserve. So much

Funeral of Senator Broderick
[From the San Francisco Bulletin.]
The funeral of Senator Broderick took
place on Sunday, the 18th instant, and was
one of the most imposing spectacles ever wit
nessed in California. The hour fixed for the
solemn rites was half past 1 o'clock, P. M.,
when the funeral oration of Col. E. D. Baker
was to be delivered on the Plaza ; but long
before that time the square, all the streets
about it, the windows, balconies, and roofs,
and the roofs of distaht houses, wherever a
view could be obtained; were crowded with
spectators, many of them ladies". The num
bers were, variously estimated from five to
ten thousand ; such a mass as has seldom
ever previously gathered in San Francisco.
At the upper portion of the square, about
the foot of the flag-staff, was erected a stand
for the speaker. It was covered with black,
with festoons and mourning wreaths. There
were seats behind the speaker's place for the
pall-bearers and nearest friends ; and, in
front of the speaker, a low bier for the re
mains, over which the oration was to be pro
nounced. In view of these preparations and
the melancholy occasion which gave rise to
them, a profound silence reigned over all that
vast assemblage; not a word was heard, not
a noise disturbed the solemnty of the scene;
nothing but the low and muffled tread of
the multitude as they moved up towards the
stand.
At precisely .half past one o'clock, a way
was cleared, from the front of the Union
Hotel, where the body had reposed in state,
to the stand on the Plaza. The coffin was
then borne forth, and all eyes were directed
to its progress up the solemn aisle which was
made among the crowds of citizens. The
coffin was an iron one. It was ornamented
with wreaths of laurels and flowers. The
pall-bearers, some twenty or thirty in num
ber, consisted of the most intimate personal
friends of - the deceased. In front of these,
keeping the way clear, was the Grand Mar
shal, John Middleton, and his aids—seven
in number—all these on horseback. As the
body moved up the Plaza, the line of citizens
closed in behind it. The remains were borne
to the stand and placed upon the platform ;
and the people crowded up around it. The
orator, Colonel E. D. Baker, then stepped
forward and delivered the oration. •
After the oration, the coffin was borne to
Kearny street and placed in the hearse,
which stood ready to receive it. At the
same time the City Hall bell, which was
muffled, commenced tolling, and the note of
mourning was taken up by the bells of the
engine houses of the city. The procession
then commenced forming, a few mounted po
liceman clearing the way. A carriage con
taining the officiating ministers, two Catholic
fathers, followed ; and next it the hearse,
drawn by four black horses, and surrounded
by the pall-bearers. Next came the Pioneer
Society, followed by the most intimate per
sonal friends of the deceased.
The fire department carne next in full
number—Empire Engine --Company No 1,
with black badges, first; and the - rest follow
ing in order, all in citizens dress and march
ing four abreast. The Odd Fellows' Socie
ties of the city followed, and then numer
ous citizens. After them camp an immense
line of carriages and' private vehicles.—
It was, in all, one of the largest funeral
trains ever seen here. There were about two
thousand persons on foot, and a line, half a
mile in length, of carriages. In all, the line
was over a mile long.
[From the San Francisco herald of the 14th ult.l
TIIE INQUEST.
Wednesday afternoon, a little after two
o'clock, the Coroner, Dr. McNulty, held au
inquest on the body of the Hon. D. C. Brod
erick. •
Hon. 3. C. McKibben sworn : I witnessed
a duel on the morning of the 12th inst., at or
about seven o'clock; it took place in San Ma
toe county, near the dividing line, and near
the south end of Lake Merced ; the" principals
in That duel were Senator D. C. Broderick
and Chief Justice D. S. Terry ; the distance
was ten paces ; the weapons were duelling
pistols ; the friend of D. S. Terry won the
choice of weapons ; the choice determined by
throwing -up a half-dollar piece and calling
head and tail ; the principals saying they
were ready, were given the words, which
were " fire, one, two ;" -they were to fire be
tween the words "fire" and "two ;" I saw the
pistols loaded with leaden bullets in the pres
ence of both seconds of both parties; they
were accepted as being satisfactory ; the
principals took the positions assigned them
at a• distance of ten paces ; their eyes were
at right angles to a straight line between
one principal and the other; after taking
their positions, the pistols were taken up by
the seconds, cocked in each other's presence,
and the hair trigger set • each second then
proceeded to his principal and delivered the
weapon ; the seconds men returned some dis
tince out of the line of fire, and the word was
given by a second of Mr. Broderick, ire—
one, two ;" as near as I could judge, Mr. Brod
erick discharged his pistol between the words,
"fire" and "one," about one second interven
ing between the reports of the two pistols ;
the report of Mr. Terry's pistol was subse
quent, but with a very slight interval ; Mr.
Broderick appeared to look with sArprise at
the course his ball had taken ; I wits about
twelve feet from him, midway between
the parties ; Mr. Broderick seemed to grad
ually wheel and droop ; he lowered himself
easily upon the ground; I ran up to him and
tried to assist Dr. Leohr in opening his gar
ments ; I saw the wound ; the blood was not
flowing freely ; there were no other shots
fired ; the ball from Mr. Terry's pistol woun
ded Mr. Broderick; Dr. Loehr then proceeded
to examine the wound, and, while doing so,
the services of Dr. Hammond were tendered
and accepted ; the physicians gave him all
the relief in their power, and, in the course
of three quarters of an hour, he was ,taken
up and conveyed to the residence of Mr.
L. Haskell ; I was with Mr. Broderick up to
the time of his death, which occurred yes
terday, (Friday,) at twenty minutes past
nine o'clock A. M. ; D. S. Terry challenged
Mr. Broderick ' • the 'pistols used I presumed
to belong to Dr. Aylett ; they were lighter
than the ordinary duelling pistols ; I exam
ined the trigger of the one used by Mr.
Broderick, and I am not positive I did not
examine both ; I discovered no perceptible
difference; I looked at them, tried the springs,
and found them alike, as nearly as I could
judge ; there was a party on the, ground more
conversant with weapons than myself; I ask
ed him to examine them ; he did so, and pro
nounced them correct; the pistols were load
ed: alike ; Mr. Broderick was born in the
District of Columbia, on the 4th of February,
1819 ; the duel occurred about two miles from
the county line ; I do not know on whose prop
erty ; we were not aware of any difference in
the pistols, while on the ground, and I know
of no difference between them at present ; we
had a person on the ground for the express
purpose of loading the pistols.
After several other witnesses were examin
ed the jury brought in the following
VERDICT
We, the undersigned jurors, convened to
inquire into the cause of the death of David
C. Broderick, who died in the city of San
Francisco, on the 15th of September, 1859,
do find that the deceased was born in the
District of Columbia, aged 40 years, and
that he came to his death from a wound in
flicted by.a pistol ball fired from a pistol in
tentionally, by David S. Terry, on the morn
ing of September 13, 1859.
BEr• One of the most remarkable physolog
ical facts known in medical history, has re
cently developed itself in the case of a son of
Mr. Charles Davis, of Baltimore. The boy
alluded to is about 11 years old, and for a
long time has been a sufferer from spasms
and severe choking spells, which no physi
cian seemed able to account for. Everything
promising relief was resorted to, and indeed
a small fortune was spent for expectorants
and other medicines. But all proved of no
avail ; the boy grew no better, and remained
a puzzle to everybody until a week or two
ago, when, by a sudden and violent retch a
curious looking living frog was thrown from
his stomach. The boy, however, experienced
but little relief by this ejection, and still con
tinues to gasp and choke and retch, as though
he was possessed up to the mouth with sim
ilar animals.
ANECDOTE OF GENERAL JACKSON.—In the
midst of the bank contest, when Clay, Cal
houn and Webster were making the Senate
Chamber ring with their denunciations of
Gen. Jackson, and when his Administration
was on the verge of plunging into the war
with Louis Phillipe, the Presbyterian Gen
eral Assembly was being rent in twain by
New and Old School quarrel. The Rev. Dr.
Stiles Ely, an ostentatious leader of the New
School party, and an admirer of Jackson, vis
ited the White House to tender spiritual con
solation to its sorely tried Chieftain. With
sympathising look he asked, squeezing his
hand fervently : " General, of all the ques
tions now convulsing the country, which gives
you the most anxiety ?" The old hero, who.
had a spice of calvanism and irony in his,
composition promptly replied : " The Aluar-,
role in the Presbyterian Church, Doctor.,'
