BRECKIHRIDGE OF KENTUCE Y. `to the Decision of the Charleston Democratic -Notional Convention.) -.bar The election - is 'over and .we have been most completely defeated, in almost every particular. The causes which produced the defeat of the Democracy in the good old Com monwealth of Pennsylvanja, are ap- : athy, treason, and a small poll. The democracy in a measure were indif- z ferent for-the success of their state , ticket, in fact, we" Were' 'searcely, j live party. 'While the Opposition were ; strain % ing every•nerve to,sitecUe'd, our friends stood idly, by with folded arms. -ThVy seemed - to 'think that the :gainfi': was, not worth the powder: ue.h of the causes of our defeat,. - it : - Then, many of those who have in days gone by plucked the ripest fruits of our -successes, not only were indifferent, but themselves And frien'ds supported the' oppositiOn. Under the, guise of democracy they possessed superior facilities to make their trea son effective. With the pretextof an ti-LecoMptonism they led astray •thousands of honest democrats, and , -either induced them to vote the op position ticket or stay away from the polls. The race Of this class of poli ticions is now run. The democratic party to-day stands forth rid of its bad material, While Its principles have not -been Violated. Those not With us are against us. The list elec tion placed every -man where he be longs, and the opposition are wel come to their.. accessions. The most notable- cause of our de feat on last Tuesday, however, was the small djimocratic vote polled.— Even in this county there are upwards of -I.ooo . votes back, while on the side of the opposition the number, in pro ,portion Ao their strength, is not near so great. The, same fact is percepti ble all .over the State. Had our friends turned out at all as usual, vic tory would have crowned our ban ners. A Presidential and Gubernatorial •election is now before us, and it is 'time for 'she Democracy to arouse.— We must shake off the apathy rest ing upon our ranks, and go t© work to achieve our usual victories. With an honest and competent candidate tor Governor, the.DeraocracyofTenn -sylvariia cannothe defeated. With a .'Charleston 'nominee for . Pretident, -placedaiiily- and squarely ?open the Aruaplatform of the party, a second victory like that of 18.51 can easily be achieved. Then let us go to work at once. We have rested long enough:, Letns show the opposition that the Demicratic party is not "dead." Tll A NKSGIVING PRO °LAMA- TION PELLOW-CITIZENS :—The blesiings vouchsafed by a kind Providence through the past year, demand our grateful recognition, and again call for the sacrifice of thanksgiving and praise. Under the protection of goy *,ernment that secures to all equal rights, we have pursued, unmolested, the various avocations of life, with more than usual prosperity. The earth, under the labors of the hus bandman, has yielded her Menne, and our barns and storehouses are crowded with the fruit of the harvest. We have not only been preserved from the ravages of the pestilence, but the past has been a year distinguished for h.ehlth in our large cities and through out all our rural districts. Our coun ry has been preserved in peace.- 2 Our homes have been the abodes of tranquility, and blessings innumera ble have clustered around our domes_ tie.hearths. Our various Schools and Seminaries of learning are diffusing throughout our community a higher intelligence, and imparting to our youth nobler aspirations. The insti tutions of our holy religion are well sustained; and under its pure and genial influence, the spirit :of unity and love, the earnest of yet better days, is .most happily developed. TO GOD THE GREAT AND THE GOOD, we are indebted Lor all, and ,to Him .let ; praise' be Tendered.

'A DIAMOND WEDDING The New York papers gair.e last week, the particulars of what they called a, "Diamond Wedding." ' Don Estabon Santa Cruz de Oriedo, a rich Cuban was the bridegroom, and Miss Frances Amelia Baritlett, a pennyless lass the bride. The presents made the bride on the occasion by the bride.. groom are 'valued at $290,000. The wedding-took place at St. Patrick's Cathedral. The bride's:trousseau, consisted of seventy-five dresses, and other "arrangements" to match, and cost some $lO,OOO. The bridal dress was a 'mir acle of elegance, and , exquisite taste, 'and cost $5,000. The pair of diamonds confining the bridal veil, was made 'to order at Tiffany's. The frioiera. of $19,000 - cash was paid for it on deliv ery. There wore five thousand -persons in the church, and five times that number in the streole. The ceremony took place at 12. The bridal' par ty .consisted of :the ;father and mother of the bride, the bridal pair, mid six bride maids, with six bridemen. The bridemaids were clothed two in white, two in blue gag two in sherry-colered Tarltiton dresses; with double eltirts. The dress . es of the bricleautids cost about one hundred dol lars each. The bridegroom is ty small man, of dark complexion, and apparently about -forty jeers of age. He was dressed in, a white vest :and gloves, black coat and pants. The bride men wero similarly dressed. Archbishop Hughes During the performance of the marriage cere mony, the assemblage of spectators, momentari ly calm at the opeeing, foil back into tumult.— But amid, and notwithstanding all this turbti: lance, the ceremony did proceed, and end. Than the bride turned, and standing in full view of the assemblage, her eheelissdushed with excite-. meat; her eyes diffusing liquid lustre, showered kisses among her . bridesmaids. After that the party retired by a-private door. ,At 121 o'clock the Cathedral .was deserted.

At that instant _linderick waa - observed 'to clap his left hand to his right breast, -When At was seen that ho was wounded.

Op their arrival at BeniCia they took, a'n overland conveyance to Sacramento. .Mr.Broderie.k was taken to the house of Leonidas Haskell, at Black Point, where he was visited during the day by hundreds of his friends.

Of this Wilful perversion of facts we must acquit the immediate friends of the deceased Senator. For the most . part, their is'orrow at his loss has not made them unjust. . The outcry comes fromthe Black Republicans, by whom the:4pnrtiiiiity has been seized with ferocious avidity to make capital for their party. The effort, we are happy to say, has entirely failed. it is welt known . that the, difficulty between Messrs. Terry and Bfoderick was'w holly disconnected . . . with the' late catiVass. Neither was it identified in any'single, particular with the antagonism betWeeli Messrs. Brod erick and Gwin. Mr. Terry has never been a friend of Mr. Gwin ; he has nev er had any affiliation,'personal or polit ical, with that Senator, and furthermore, we have the Most: positive assurance, that no friend of Mr. Gwin was in Ter ty's confidence in relation to his pro posed correspopdence with Mr. Broder ick: So much for the 'charge Of con- spiracy. ,The vile accusation of unfair ness in the fight has already been abun dantly refuted.
