■Enough is known of tho election to
Vcniovo. qll.doubt as to tho result,. Geary
has been re-elected, but by a re-’
dnred majority, probably six or seven
thousand. Outside of Philadelphia, the
counties.,report almost uniform Demo
cratic gains, but the fact that the Re,
publicans have carried Philadelphia by
(J,DUO or 4,000, in our own Judgment set
tles tlie question. To have curried the
stale, it was necessary that wo should
carry Philadelphia—to lose Philnbelphia
is to lose tho State. The unfortunate
difficulties which arose in our own party
in that city have most probably been
the cause of our defeat; and we trust
that that defeat will iearn us a lesson.
.As it is, wo have met the enemy and
we are theirs, and (ill we can do is to
pick our flints and try it again.
SOLD GASIHI.INO.
The Herald gives the following ex
planation of the gold gambling opera
tions of Wall street, and the vast differ
ence between the legitimate business in
gold and the pure gambling operations;
Though apparently wrapped in mystery,
the roguery is not difficult to gpmpre
nend. Some mCn sell gold for future
delivery in the hope that the price will
fall. When it does so their profit is made
by purchasing it at-tiio lower price and
delivering it in fulfillment of their con
tract to the higher. Now and then it
rises instead of falling, and they have
to pay more for it than they obtain, and
tlie icsultis loss. But no matter in what
aspect during the.interval the specula
tor is “short” of gold, but nevertheless
obtains it in order to carry out his
contract.
Instead of contracting for delivery at
u definite future time, luTthreeor thirty
or sixty days from the day of sale, it is
most common to sell the gold for imme
diate delivery, aud then to borrow it,
until the sellet wishes to “covert—
that is, to buy It back. By far the
greater part of all the transactions in
gold are of this nature; that is to say,
they are bets on the future price of coin.
Tho proportion which these bets bear to
what is called the “legitimate busi
nes.s”_that Is,, to the transactions of
merchants who buy and sell gold in the
ordinary course of trade—is startling ip
those who have not considered it. The
dally transactions of the Gold Exchange
Banks ate from $100,000,000 to $200,000,-
000- that is to say, the book transfers of
gold bought and sold ninuunf to these
sums, while the actual amount of coin
and cola certificates used In these ex
changes Jafrom $2OO 000,000 to §300,000,-
000.. The whole amount of gold coin
owned by the banks, bankers, merchants
and speculators of New York rarely ex
ceeds $20,000,000, and but a part of this
can be brought into Wall streets for
speculative deliveries. If a combina
tion of capitalists therefore, but buy up
that amount, then all who have gold to
deliver must buy or borrow of them. If
they buy not only that amount, but
much more, sold “short” by the other
gamblers around them, they have the
latter at their mercy, and can raise the
price for the time at their will, compell
ing all who are “short” to pay them thtv
dillerence of price. . The advance from
135 on Thursday morning to 150 Friday
represented a dillerence of more than
$-10,000,000 on the transactions of that
day alone.
EXTRAVAGANCE IX WAI.I. STREET
[New.York Litton to the Boston Journal.]
Macauley describes Dr. Johnson as
knowing no medium between a famine
and a feast; knowing want, knowing
abundance, but comfort never; half
starved or tearing his food as a furnished
woll. This would make a good descrip
tion of Wall street. The bull or bear lo
dav who has not money enough to buy
a inticli T will spend twenty-live dollars
to-morrow for bis dinner at Ddinonico’s.
Tim broker who rides in an omnibus in
the moruing will lake a cab to go home
at night. Everything about Wall street
indicates that extravagance is the ruling
spirit. A. few years ago everything was
plain and unpretending in this region.
The heaviest operators were content with
small rooms uncarpeted, with plain fur
it it it re; and used pine allies, with aeover
ing <*f green baize. A dinner costing two
dollars would then have been regarded as
veiy ext A few hankers, whose
fortune placed them above the caprice of
the market, rode down in theircarriages,
but the great mass came into Wall street
on nmt, leaving the catsutlhe City Hall,
or at the best, riding to the head of Wall
street in an umnibus. All this is passed
away. A n-w race occupy the hold. Ex
travagance, luxury, aiTd a walon expen
diture, seems the universal law. The
principal business seems to be dune by
n-cre lads, clerks, or beardless youug
men. They till the stock room, gold room
and crowd the pavement. They yell and
scream and stamp like madmen. Broad
and Wall street are filled with carriages,
for ihese youngsters can’t walk home or
take an omnibus, but must iinve a coach.
Die very expensive dining at Delmoui
co’s, for when Young New York is Hush
he must have a private room and wine*,
the cost is seldom than $5O. Rooms
are fitted up for business as beautifully
as the chancel of a church. Rosewood
and carved black walnut made expressly
for the purpose, and covered with satl •
or velvet, are quite common. The room
iih which stocks are.sold is gorgeously fit
ted up. It is in a marble palace auu the
walls are lined, Instead of being papered,
with heavy aqd costly silks. Those who
do business In this locality are knocked
down every day liko ten-pins, with no
one to set them up. Enough are found to
rush in and fill their places. The meu
ruined tp-day will borrow $5O and start
on the curbstone, Probably there are not
a dozen men on Wall street, out of the
thousand who do business there, who
have not been stripped, within twelve
months, of their all. All the smull dcul
crs are at the mercy of the probers, who
can eat up a margin whenever they
please. The shocks of the great bulls.and
hears, when they undertake to corner the
market is perfectly terrific. Young men
hud better Jay stone wall in New' England
Hum undertake to do business in Wall
street.
Opium Bating.— A New York letter
writer says there is a man in that city
who claims to bo 101 years of age, and
who asserts that ho takes sixty grains
opium a day. The correspondent then
asks if opium will prolong life? Medi
cal men have shown, over and over
again, that it will not at least shorten
life In certain temperaments; and many
physicians think they have evidence to
allow that in sundry cases it has pro
longed life. The New York JSxprtaa
instances an old gentleman, recently a
resident .of Jersey City, whose daily ra
tion of opium has increased, in the
course of years, from ten to forty.grains,
and who may he said to have lived on
opium. He is near eighty, and is strong
er and more active now than most men
of ids age., But, reader, do not cat opi
um on the strength of this fact- it
might kill you in a year.

SUefcll of Ills Life. Character and Public^
Services.
After u lingering illness, the fourteenth
President of the United States expired at
His residence in Concord yesterday morn
ing. Franklin Pierce was born in Hills
borough, N. H., November 23, 1804, and
was therefore, at the time of bis decease,
65 years of age. He came from one of the
oldest New England families. His father
before him had been aman of distinction
in public affairs, serving the State of New
.Hampshire as Governor in 1827 and 1829,
and flllingotherposltlonsbf tiust. Frank
lin Pierce graduated at Bnwdoin College,
Maine, in 1824. He adopted ( ,tbe law as
o profession, and studied Arena the office
of the celebrated Levi Woodbury, and
afterwards in that of Chief-Justice Parker.
He was admitted to the bar in 1827 and
began practice in his native town of
Hillsborough. One of his earliest friends
and associates was Natbaniul Hawthorne,.
the author, who subsequently became his
biographer. With the very beginning of
his professional career Mr. Pierce threw
himself with ardor into politics. From
the outset he. was a Democrat, and he
maintained his fidelity to the principles of
the party with af are consistency through
out his public life. His first political con
test was fought under tbe banner of
General Jackson, and his services during
the Presidential campaign were so
thoroughly appreciated' by his fellow
townsmen that they elected him to the
State, Legislature in the twenty-fifth year
of his age.
Several years were passed in the Leg
islature, during which the future Presi
dent was fitting,himself by active work
for tbe higher position'to which he" was
to be called* In 1831 he bad become a
prominent leader of the party in the
State, and the fnqt was recognized in .bis
election to tbe Speakership of tbe House
of Represenatives by a large majority of
that body. His progress was rapid. In
1833 he was elected to Congress. He im
mediately took a high rank'among the
useful members of that body, serving on
the Judiciary and other important com
mittees, and taking active part In the
great question of the period. He sup
ported the administration of Generel
Jackson with ability, and was especially
earnest in opposition to tbe Whig doc
ne of internal improvements ut gov
boseu |
erntnen
to the United States Senate, and took his
seat as the youngest member, having
barely reached the years required by law
for the position. Indeed, a marked fea
ture of his public career was the early
age at which he attained ever station of
distinction. He began public life at
25, was Speaker of the lower branch of
the Legislature at 27, a member of Con
gress at: 0. United States Senator at 33,
and President of the United States at 48.
When hedinally retired to private life,
he was comparatively a young man.
Franklin Pierce served his State in the
Senate for five years. In the year 1542,
he. resolved to resume the duties of Ins
profession, and, resigning ins seal, re
turned to New Hampshire. So strenu
ously did he adhere to the resolution to
devote himself to the law that he* de
clined successively the nomination for
Governor of th State, tendered to him.
I»y his party, and the offices of Attorney-
General of the United States and Secre
tary of War, tendered by President Polk.
Ho had taken a front rank at the bur
as an advocate when the Mexican War.
broke out. When the State of New
Hampshire was called upon for troops he
was one of the first to enroll himself as a
private in a volunteer company from
Concord. ‘Ho did not remain b rig how
ever, in the ranks, for Congress having
passed a lull for ihe increase ol the army,
he,was commissioned hy the. President a
•brigadier-general. He served throughout
Scott’s famous campaign with great gal
lantry. He fought at the head of his bri
gade utContereras, Cherubsco, and at the
great battles around, the City of. Mexico,
mid in the hottest of the fight proved 'a
courageous and accomplished soldier. At
the last battle, while leading his men
against the enemy, lie foil; almost sense
less, from his horse, in consequence of
injuries received the previous day, but ho
refused to leave the field. After the con
quest of the Mexican capital, the General
resigned his commission and returned
home to resume his profession.
He was not destined, however, to re
main.in private life, tfagaoious party
leaders hud him in their minds us a man
possessing just the requisite qualifica
tions to beat the expected ciuulidureof the
Whig party in the approaching Presi
dential election- General Pierce was not
known before the Baltimore Democratic
Convention of 1852 ns a candidate, but*
on the,thiity-fiftb ballot, when that body
hnd passed two days in fruitless efforts
to decide between the rival claims of
Buchanan, Cass, Marcy, and Douglas,
the Virginia delegation brought forward
his name as a compromise. He gained
steadily on every subsequent ballot, until
the forty-ninth, when the break in the
opposition begun, and ho was nominated
for Prvsitent amid the greatest enthu
siasm-
Compared with leading public men of
the day, General Pierce waa compara
tively unknown to the country at large,
but a sense of his fitness for the position
seemed to pervade the public mind,
coupled with a desire for a change of na
tional rulers, and the nomination was re
ceived by acclamation. It has been men
tioned as an evidence of the foursight
and sagacity of General Pierce that ho
never doubted his ’triumphal election
from the moment he received the news
of his nomination. In-a visit the same
week to the late Isaac Toueey, the late
Thomas H. Seymour, and other personal
friends in Connecticut, he expressed (his
belief in the most positive terms. He was
pitted against the military hero of the
ago. but all* the prestige of General
Scott could not prevail against the ab
sorbing public desire to eject the party in
power. In November. 1852, General
Pierce waselected President of the United
States, receiving 554 electoral votes t 042
for bis competitor.
The administration of President Pierce
is a part of the history of the country.
He took otfice on the 4th of March, 1853,
and surrounded himself at once with a
Cabinet composed of tbeablcstmen of the
Democratic party. , Marcy was Secretary
of State, Guthrie presided over the Tread*,
ury, Jefferson Davis over the War De
partment, and Caleb Cushing was At
torney-General. Among the great ques
tion which arose under thoadmluhtm'ion
was that which grew out of the Knosas-
Nebruska bill, introduced into the Senate
by Mr. Douglas.“ The measure met with
fierce opposition from the anti-slavery
party In Congress, but the bill was passed
and received the signature of the Presi
dent. The other prominent features of
the administration of President -Pierce
were the acquisition of the Mesillu Val
ley—now known as Arizona—from Mex
ico,. the 'exploration of routes for the
Pacific Railroad, the agitation and settle
ment of the disputes with Great Britian
about the fisheries, the Xonazta affair in
the harborof Smyrna, the Ostond Mani
festo of Messrs. Buchanan, Soule, ami
Mason, and the proposition to buy Cuba
for $120,000,000, the Japan expiditlon of
Commodore Perry, the bombardment of
Greytown by Commodore Hollins, and
theCrampton enlistment difficulty with
Great Brltlan. With so many, questions
agitating In the country and the anti*
slavery contest swelling Jn volume, the
administration of President Pierce was
necessarily a stormy one; but ho carried
himself firmly through alUhedifllcuhlcs,
of the time, ami, when bis term drew to
a olo*p, lils patriotlsm aud cons«cieniiuus
devotion to duty received an emphatic

Gorgeous Attire—Twelve Dresses fir lbs
The city of Lyons presented to the
Empress Eugenie, on her recent visit to
that city, a wardrobe, of which al letter,
gives the following description :‘' ' -
When the Empress passed through the
room in which her twelve dresses were
exhibited, she was magically arrested
by their beauty and the tasteful manner
in which they were displayed. Enel?,
material had been placed, folded,’ iViin&f
creasedjind waved in the most advan
tageous position and light by artists in
(he dilficultscience of ornamenting simp
windows, and this is almost on - of the
fine arts, cultivated nowadays to allure
and insure temptation,. She.approach
ed the stands and congratulated the
decorator, while expressing also her
thanks to .the assembled silk manufac
turers.
The following is the order in which
tiie drepses are classed by the city of
Lyons, the first mentioned being the
richest:
The first dress, a white point with bo
quet of flowers in whioh.no les* limn
sixty hues are blended, and all so hnr
inoniMUsly'that not one is conspicuous.
The flowers are so light that they seem
to wave at every passing breath, and it
is averred that this feathery lightness
and richness has never yet been attained.
The second, a corise satin, strewn with
white and cerise' roses, the latter .paler
•than the ground of the material. T is
is called cam ileu, and the style of lone
upon tone will prevail in rich materi
als next winter.
The third, a white gros grain, with
er! brilliancy! called ‘mat’ (ivorylike),
on which are brocade satin roses. The
flowers are in high relief, and appear tb
stand out ready for some jeweled lin
gers to cull. The Empress gave her
preference to this one.
Tne fourth anew material, both supple
and strong and like the oloth of gold
much employed in the middle ages. It
is called “supreme oloth.” It is gray,
having satin gray stripes on a gray
ground. When lying down it simply
sheet of varied twillight but when held
up these is a changefull seiramor all
over approaching silver gray.
The fifth, a plum satin, dark sapphire,
snade. This splendid material, too,
when held up has a thousand hues,
varying from one gamut in the sap
phire order to the other. It is entirely
new..
The sixth, an aqua-marine poult
called Eau de Leman muslin. Thb*
word muslin applied to a poult derives
Us origin from the transparent refine-,
tidn orthe white on the. pale green,
The seventh, a peach colored veivo',
a color not yet attempted for tills cost
ly material. When moved in thu hand
it has all the down of the peach on it
and within the thick folds.
The eighth, a chamkery gauze with
blue satin stripes. The white stripe
between each alternate lilac stripe is
brocaded with a pompadour boquet;
the lilac strip? is brocaded with a white
satin flower .and green foliage*
The ninth, a Louis XV, pink materi
al camaleu— i. e. pink on pink, -
The tenth, a Campana robe that U of
the shade of the Pompeian vases, which
are ornamented with black Assyrian
figures; it is neither briekdust nor red.
The vision is over, and it .conveys a
lesson or so.< Firstly, watteaux and
crumpled up flippancy are out of all
season—ladies are to come out folded
up i secondly, brocades arp to reign su
preme, and this will introduce majestic
styles—ray prediction of last autumn, in
fact; thirdly, if these rich materials are
not adopted the Lyons workmen will
starve, and therefore costliness must
rule the day.
—Hartford, Oct. 6.—The Cuiirant to
morrow will contain the following card :
“ Mrs. Stowe desires the friends of jus
tice and fair dealing to publish fur her
this, announcement: That she has kept
silence heretofore in regard to the criti
cism on her article on Byron for two rea
sons ; First, because she regarded the
public mind as in too excited a state to
consider the matter dispassionately; and
second, because she has expected the de
velopment of additional proofs In Eng
land, some of which, or great impor
tance, have already come *o hand.
"Mrs. Stowe Is preparing to review,
the whole matter with further facts and
more documents, including several let
lers of Lady Byron to her, attesting the
vigor and soundness of her mind at the
period referred to, ami also .Mrs. Stowe's*
own letters to Lady Byron at the same
time, whiclrwere returned to her by the
executors soon after that lady’s death.
She will also give the public a full ac
count'd the circumstances which led her
to feel it to be her duty to make this dis
closure us an obligation to Justice, grati
tude and personal friendship.”
