'e Presidential Elegtio.4
Although. the , Spy' is not political,
it cannot bUt be expected that along with
all true loVers of the Union, we shall re
joice•over the great. victory. The, result
showaeouclusively that the mass ot- the
Northern people are fur a " vigorous
prosecution of the war," and that they
will-yield an unqualified support to our
Chief Magistrate. At present 'writing it
is pertain. that McClellan has carried but
three States, and one remains doubtful.
The verdict rendered in favor of the Ad
ministration has been almost Unanimous,
New York is claimed by the Democracy
at 2000 majority, while the' Republicans
claim it by 5.000. It is probable that
Sepi:on'. is Fe•elected as Fenton has ran
behind the ticket. The Union gains in
this:State over the October election have
been tremenduous. In our county the
Union majority was swelled from 4,040
to about 5,500. It was a well contested
fight; and both parties were out in their
might, and exerted themselves as if it
was a contest bet Ween life and death.
Now that the election is over, let us
all 'submit quietly to the will of the ma
jority and throw away party feelings and
party dissensions, and aid the, Govern
ment in hringing tim rebellion to speedy
termination.
We Still Liye,
Notwithstanding the fears that were
entertained of trouble from the defeated
party,.the indications are that. the North
are more united to-day than ever in their
determination to suppress the rebellion
by force of arms. The defeated party
have acquiesced gracefully. The -4.ge
says : " It is the duty of every good citi
zen-to submit to the popular will as ex-
pressed .4 419 IMP.*
••
With regard to, the policy of the ad
ministration; it says, "The claim that
the election was an endorsement of the
entire policy and measures of the admin
istration is just. Elmancipation, Confis
eation, Ortbjugation and Extermination
Kure been endorsed." •,
4nd the principles of the Baltimore Plat
form have been approved by the people
and acquiesced in by those who opposed
them, and more than two-thirds of the
next Congress being pledged to amend
the Constitution so as to exclude Slavery,
we may expect to soon see a system of
free labor extend all over the eonntry,
With the rebellion suppressed, the
South under a system of compensated
labor; the interests of all sections will be
identical. The hope is bright indeed
that America will prqve to be what past
and present patriots desire, the land of
promise, the beacon star to the oppressed
ea lands.

Capture of the " Florida."
Assistant Paymaster W. W. Williams
of the United States steam sloop.of-war
Trachnsett, arrived by the Kcarsarge, at
Boston, furnished a brief account of the
capture of the Florida. The pirate hav
ing arrived at Bahia bay, off San Salva
dor, on the night of October 7th, Cap.
Collins, after consulting with his officers,
rosolved to attack, and sink the pirate in
port. About, three o'clock the lYitclia
seti slipped her cables and steered for the
Florida, 'striking her on the quarter,
without doing any great injury. Capt.
Collins then called out to those on board
to surrender, or he would sink the ves
sel. The First Lieutenant replied " un
der the circumstances I surrender."
Having made fast to the pile with a
hawser, the Wachasett put to sea with
the Florida iii t tow. A few pistol shots
were fired, and two guns accidentally
from the Witchasntt, but no .lives were

The Pirate Semmes' New Ship
United Sfrateg Consulate, Liverpool,
Oct 18,1864—Sir :—The English screw
steamer &a King, built at Glasgow in
1363, cleared for Bombay and sailed
from London on the Bth inst., with a
large quantity of coal, fifty tons of metal
and a crew of forty-seven men in com
mand of Cap. Cobbett. Mr. Sisco, United
Settes Consular agent, at Dover, says he
has reliable information that Capt. Sem
mes is to have this vessel. from what is
known at this office about the Sea King,
independent of the information of Mr.
Sisco, I have not the least doubt she is
the vessel the steamer Laurel is to meet
and that Captain Semmes, with the offi
cers men and guns taken oat in the Lau
rel will be transferred to her. Their
place of meeting is not known to me.
The Sea King is a very fast, strongly
builtand fine looking screw steamer built
of wood, with iron frame and coppered,
abont one thousand tons burden, and two
hundred and twenty-two feet long, one
funnel, three bright masts, ship rigged
with wire rigging, heavily sparred, ma
chinery abaft the mainmast. No doubt
her name will be changed.

MEETING OF CONartESS.—The "note
of preparation" for this important as
semblage is perceptible in every direc
tion. The Senate Chamber and Hall of
Representatives are being thoroughly
cleansed and renovated. The rotunda is
now closed and the splendid paintings
therein secured, whilst the workmen are
maturing plans for the removal of the
great and lofty - derrick which for some
years has encumbered die centre of the
beautiful promenade. That will, doubt
less, be till safely removed next week.—
The massive marble steps at the cast
front of the south wing of the ediace
may not be quite finished by the first of
December, but considering the difficulty
of bringing material to the gonads, and
the scarcity - of bands, the progress there
on is really surprising. Another of tha
beautiful columns of Maryland marble
was elevated into position lately.— Wash

A Writer' in yoiri: paper of last week;
moder,..the'. signature t'sif X, attempts to.
account for,:the linutifOt apathy; if pot ,
antipatii±:to'church=p,Oing on the papt , of
our people.
While the subject is an important one
and the writer deserves credit for moot
',l:kg-IC-VT think the reasons - assigned are
far' from , the. mark.
The writer says: " the fault is with
the churches." Why, because they are
not . '"free": Min . y• are not free?
The Episcopal_ has declared itself_ free
"in the evening.". The Presbyterians
always accommodate visitors with 'seats,
and none of the other churches, we be
lieve, are pawed.
Now,it seems to me, this writer has
seen an evil, but IMS made an egregions
mistake in'diagnoSeing the cause.
Why do so many stay away from'
churches ? is the question pertinently
asked ?
The church is 'God's visible instrumen
tality for enlightening and reforming
men, and when they fail to be brought
within its influence whose fault is it?
The founder himself answered the
question when he said, "Men love dark
ness rather than light because their deeds
are evil." There'S the rub. If men
wont attend church unless the church is
conducted according to their views,
fear the result in their case will be most
disastrous.,
There is•an antagonism between light
and darkness. Unconverted men love
not the things which pertain to a holy
religion. "The lust of the flesh, the lust
of the eye, the pride of life" are all an
tagonistic to God and his cause.
There is not a church in town where
an anxious and honest seeker for the
light of salvation, however mean and low
he alight be, would not be received with
a hearty welcUme and afforded every fa
cility for prosecuting with success his
heavenly undertakings.
Say not then, "it is the fault of the
churches!" Man is left free to choose
and he who does not respect God's gos
pel sufficiently to put himself where its
influence may reach him, must abide the
consequences, which are fearful indeed !

ila. EDITOR. :—Suwetimes I go to
meeting. In fact Igo pretty often. I
find it does me good. It is pleasant
likewise. Moreover the thing looks prop=
er. Further it helps to spend Sabbath.
Besides it is free.
I see that some do not go to meeting.
Indeed a number deny themselves of it.
4 antixaty_Ull4e o .flarY,_ per
suaded that they are mis-persuaded. It
is not a sins to gu to meeting. It is quite
innocent to go. No harm comes of it.—
Many persons are uninjured by it. I
think it is safe to venture.. It would be
no great risk to try a few times.
The Preachers might be better. But
then they might be worse. What they
say has something iu it. A little at a
time is sometimes best. Too much might
drain the Preacher. At the same time it
might crowd you. When I get a little I
sometimes add some myself. I find this
to be a good exercise. Thus I make the
poverty of the Preacher's points a peg
where to hang some premises of my own.
You might do the same. You might
preach to yourself after the preacher has
preached to you.
There is usually singing in meeting.—
On the whole it has a pleasing effect.—
The young ladies give their services. The
young gentlemen likewise. This is amia
ble, to say the least. I like to look up
at the singer's gallery. It reminds me of
my young days. I know the trials of
that p.ace ; its honors likewise. It is
understood that all are at liberty to sing.
Of course, however, only when singing
is in order. It seems to me this is an
inducement to attend. Music hath
charms. A great man has said so. To
me singing is sometimes quite sweet. On
Sabbath unusually au. In meeting it is
particularly so.
Friend Stay-at-home . come out on Sab
bath. It is something to see good people,
also to be seen by•good people. You
needn't mind the collection unless you
choose.

REM) 'WHO SAYS SO_
Prom the Re t. Levi G. Burk, Pastor of
the Baptist :Church, Pemberton, N. J.,
fbrmerty of .the North Baptist Church,
Philadelphia.
I have known llooflands's German Bit
ters flivorably fora number of years. I have
used them in my own tinnily, and have
been so pleased with their effects that
was induced to recommend them to main,
others, and know that they have operated
in a strikingly beneficial manner. I take
great pleasure in thus publicly proclaim
ing this fact, and riffling the attention to
those afflicted with the diseases for which
they are recommended to these Bitters
knowing from experience that hay recom
mendation will be sustained. Ido this
cheerfully as floolland's Bitters is intend
ed to benefit the afflicted, "not a rum
drink."
From Rev. J. Newton Brown, D. D., Edi
tor of the Encyclopedia o fßeligi on s Knowl
edge and Christian Chronicle Philadelphia-
Although not disposed to favor or recom
mend Patetit Medicines in general, through
distrust of their ingredients and effects, I
yet know of no sufficient reasons why a
man may not testily to the benefits he be
lieves himself to have received from any
simple preparation, in the hope that he
may thus contribute to the benefit of oth
ers.
I do this more readfly in regard to Hoof
land's German Diners, prepared by Dr C
Ai Jackson, this city, because I was preju
diced against them for ninny years, under
the impression that they were chiefly
an alcoholic mixture. I am indebted to my
friend, Robert :Shoemaker. Esq., thr the
removal of al is prqj udi ee by propertestsand
