Quite a sensation eras created 'to day by the announcethetielhikaTilte number of •Republlefin members were in session at the Astor souse, fixing up the incoming Cabinet, and arrang ing a compromise with the South, to be subMitted to Congress next week. Gov. Corwin, of Ohio, was sent for, and went from this place last even ing. Messrs.-Seward, Chase and Corwin are freely 'talked of for Sqoretary of State. Messrs.

It is believed that the ultimateyur- , pose in the proposed resigniiiiim of Judge Taney is to satisfy the South, and that all the Senators will resume their seats in order to secure a con firmation of Judge Black, or any oth er gentleman of extreme Southern views, as his successor; and this will be used as an excuse by the States proposing secession, for retreating from the dangerous position they have taken.

THE ELECTORAL VOTE The latest news from the Pacific coast makes it pretty certain that both California and Oregon have gone for Lincoln. We aro, therefore, able to correct our table of the electoral vote of the States, as we believe the complete returns will make it stand. Unexpectedly, the vote of Virginia, like that of New-Jersey, is divided; and Missouri is still in doubt, although we think Douglas has it by a small plurality : LINCOLN AND HAMLIN New York, 35 inneseta, - 4 California, ow Hampshire, 5 Connecticut, 6 New-Sersey, (part) 4 Illinois, 11 Ohio - , 23 Indiana, 13 Oregon, :3 lowa, 4 Pennsylvania, 27 Maine, bode Island, .4 Iliatomeh 13 . isetts, 13 ermont, '5 `Michigan, 6 Wisconsin . , ' 5 Ta 4 Ifeeeecary to a choice, Lincoln's majority, 28 BRECEINRIDOE Liss. 9 Mississippi, 7 4 'North Carolina, lO 3 South CaioIDA, 8 3 Texas, , 4 101 Virginia, (Part) 6 61 Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, Total, 78 EVERETT.

Siiir A dreadful accident occurred on Thursday last, on the Beavei Meadow Railroad. The passenger train had just left Mauch Chunk, when it was thrown from the track at Bear Creek dam, by the breaking of a rail, and a passenger car, con taining twenty-eight 'persons, was precipitated intoilie Lehigh river, 'a 'Catena° of about fifteen feet, and the COhductor and four lady:passengers were drowned, viz : Robert Nichols, the conductor; Mrs. Farroiv and sis ter,of Beaver Meadow, anti the two Misses Smith, of Mauch Chnilk. The little State of Rhcideisland is in a mighty commotion. Every man in it out ()Nail, belonging to the Republican and Abolition parties, is an expectant office holder, and l ih conselhence the good people of said State are getting into a very pretty big fight.

The Wide-Awakcswere allowed to hang about on the outside, snuffing up the odors of the good things as they exuded from the cracks and crevices of the "feed" room.— Andy Curtin, and many other Repub lican Generals were present and help. • ea to devour the good things. Mr. McClure is to be Secretary of State under Curtin. Ozti" Mr. Breckinridge arrived" at Washington on Saturday, and his rooms were immediately crowded - with visitors anxious to hear his views - relative to the present crisis. He talks hopefully, and counsels modera tion, forbearance and compromise.— It is believed that prominent Union mon have prepared conservative com promise measures, which will cover the entire sectional issues in dispute, and which will leave no state the shadow of an excuse for seceding.— It is also proposed to:re-elitablish the Missouri comprbiiiisoli Ile, and extend. ing it tb ithi3 'Pacific. • Mr. and Mrs. Senator Douglas were expected in Washington on Monday. The Southern members, of Congress are free in expressing their belief as to the secesion of the South. In South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Missis sippi,Louisiaua, and Florida, they say there is no lont6i a Union 'Party.— Tholiiiiue in each is between separate secession, and consultation. No man dares raise his voice for 'the nor is there any anticipation in these States that the Union can last nine ty days. Immediate secession is the prevalent sentiment. Those who fa vor conference and consultation evi dently hope that delay may possibly result in some movement. on the part of the North which will save the Gov ernment, and this, they admit, is hop ing against hope, as nothing short of disbanding the Republican Party will afford a remedy. The Smith ern mem bers say that their States must and will rid themselves of the galling vex ations caused by Northern fanaticism, and the opinion is gaining strength 'that instead of secession, it will • be absorption by the Cotton Stateliyalti. inatelly; !of Western - , Nerthefirt-West.J On 'And Middle States.

These societies send emissa ries to stir up the slaves to insurrec tion; they originate abolition liters- Ilnre, support abolition journals, and I . carry abolition doctrines into the churches and Sabbath schools.

Dr. Aiiiigtiong, mis'iibnhry to Sandwieli Islands, who died recently freith 'internal hemcii•- rhage, prodheed by a fall froth his horse, shows the curious fact that a portion of his lungs had been destroy ed by consumption, and the parts had . Itealed over. Some aventy years ago he had symptoms of — consumption, and cured himself by bathing and horseback riding, since which he had experienced no appearance of the dis ease. This seems to show the cura bility of consumption. A NOVEL WzamNo.—On Wednes last, Wm. Burley, Esq., of this place, says the Tyrone Star riveted a coup le in the holy bonds of matrimony, under singular circumstances. He received word that they .\vould be on the accommodation 'train, -go ing west, with the request that he would meet them at the station.-:-- Upon the arrival of the train, the worthy Justice entered the car in which the happy couple were, and, to the utter astonishment of the passen gers immediately proceeded with the married ceremony. The good natur ed and accommodating conductor, Capt. Cramer, kindly waited until the last word was spoken, and then an "all right—go ahead," and a snort from the fiery horse, started the new ly-married pair on their journey through life. • Another romantic couple were mar ried last week in the State House Steeple in Independence Hall, Phila. delphia. te&r. The fact is noted that - every Episcopal clergyman in Charleston, Sunday before last, omitted the usual prayer for the President of the Uni-, I ted States. The :Prince of Wales arrived in Bugland on the 15th ult. MRS. LINCOLN A correspondent of the Evening Bulletin thus sketches the future lady of the White House:— Doubtless your lady readers *oaf like to know something of thefuture mistress of. the White .House. Mrs. Lincoln called in the afternoon to see the portrait that Mr. Healey had just finished. She is of medium size,' slightly inclined to embonpoint, and is still on the sunny side of forty. Her face is oval, and is as remarkable for its regular rounded outlines ,as her husband's is for anuularities. This, with soft eyes, dark air; fair complex ion, small features and mouth, make as agreeable a companion as any one desires to see. She has a good moth erly look, a. low, soft voice, and ap pears to be just such a woman as one would rely on for sympathy and sup port. Her carriage and gestures are graceful, her manners ,winning, and her address easy and dignified. It was plain to all present that it would be no4ifficult task for her to preside over the "cdtißeSieS of the White House, and that she will adorn the station. Of course your lady readers desire to know how she was dressed. If "Jenkins" will pardon the invasion of his province, I will undertake, from a very limited knowledge of materi als, millinery and mantuamaking, to describe what Mrs. Lincoln wore.— Her dress was a brown or oak-colored silk, with grayish flowers and leaves. It was made full with Bounces, fitted well, hung gracefully about her per son,-arnl • traile'd,llut - a'fri fie.— Her - IMI - inet"iiiis of black kilk, trim m -6d•With cherry ribbon, which with -a I .rfai;k - mixed shawl, neat-fitti ng gloves, and a' rich • lavender-colored parasol, completed her costume. 'Mrs. tin- Oln examined the portrait with close 'attention, said it was the best she had Seen, but remarked that it gave Mr: Lincoln a graver expression than he usually *ore. The artist explained - WAN had frequently ~observed, at least he thought he had, th"at very expression on Mr. Lincoln as he had sat before him. After another study of the picture, Mrs. Lincoln now thanked the artist for having delayed his departure in orderto afford her an opportunity to examine the portrait, and with a general and graceful obe shine° to the company present, she 'two walked away, followed by her 'two chubby, rosy-faced, bright•eyed boys, Bill, aged about eleven, and Tom, otherwise called "Tats," or "Tatsey," aged about five years.

SECESSION AND RAILROAD IRON .- One of our railroad companies has countermanded an order to a North ern faetOry, for several hundred tons "df rail: The reason obvious :by next March, we shall be out of an 'Union which idipOses $l5 or $2O a ton on railroad iron. I3oiv ffinch, will this save / Southern (Ala.,) Nail. Kr The latest-programme for Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet is as follows :--Ed ward Bates, of Mo., Secretary of State; Samuel F. Vinton, of Ohio, Secretary of the Interior; James F. Simmons, of R. 1., Secretary .of the Treasury; Wm. C. Sharkey, of Miss., Secretary of the Navy; George W. Summers, of Va., Secretary of War; John M. Read, of Pa., Postmaster General; Wni. L. Dayton, of N. J., Attorney General. • This programme has been suggested by those who believe that Mr. Lincoln will he compelled to form a conserva tive Cabinet ; in order to save the Un ion from dissolution, and also to secure its confirmation by the Senate. Nei ther Mr. Colfax, Mr. Grow, Mr. Sher man; nor. any other endorser of Hel per's Book, would be confirmed by the 'Serrate. Nor is it believed that Thad. 'Stevens would be, whose claims are urged by his friends for theiMportant place of Secretary of the Itreiisury. A FRENCHMAN' ACCUSED OF KILLING COMRADE WHO HAD BEEN STRUCK BY A ME TEOR.—Two men . in France took shel ter in a barn for the. night. In the morning one of them was found dead, with severe injury to the head. The comrade was at once arrested' and told some "coelcarid bull" story about the terrible gio r igh.

A Nuw Jvo,—During the late cold snap a gentleman, who had filled his gasometer with whisky the night previous, suddenly found himself in utter darkness. As all things were right to his knowledge, he couldn't understand the cause of his gloam ing: but looking around, he found his nigger gloriously drunk, -having I sucked the meter dry.

DONNA'S REVENGE. —Some twenty-five years ago a rivalry, which existed between two singers in Rome, was the cause of a fatal result— ! Signora Gambrici and Signora Marina were the rage of the day, arLd their partic ular admirers were - at open war with each Other ; each party endeavoring to otitdo the other. in enthusiastic applause bestow -dd upon their especial favorite. La Mari na appeared to carry the day: the 'shouts, the bravos, the benitets and the crowns I showered down'upon her, .were . in such profusion that she evidently counted morel worshippers than her rival. In Italy they . 1 do these things to an extent .ridiculous to us Americans. They think about as much I of the personality of the singers as of the music they make. We care little except for the music. Some.. officious friends of La Gambrici enjoyed a malicous pleasure in tormenting her on her faiire, and charg ed her with being enraged at it. "I enrag ed," said she, with a smiling face but well hidden inward fury , "You are entirely ! Mistaken. On the contrary I think that La Marina deserves her success, and • that she sings divinely. : Ti? prove it to :you, I will throw her a crown myself this eve j nit*: ,She kept her word. Her rival was received with yet more enthusiastic ap- : plause than ever before, arid at - the- end Of the first act bouquets were thrown to her.

I —A NOVEL CASE AT LAW.—Mr. Church. of Montville, Conn.,owned a lien. The hen took a notion to set. Mr. Church en couraged her in it to the extent of giving her sixteen eggs to commence on. With commendable industry the 'hen went to work "setting." For one week she devoted herself to'it without interruption. At the end of the week Mr. Tinker's turkey came along that way,..and cix4dingii%e hen off her nest, took the business of incuba- . ! tion Under her own wings. Being more i "on her muscle" than th : hen, she main tained her position until a brood of chick- i • ens stepped out of the shell - and peeped.— ' The turkey then took the chickens in tow, and returned to her yiin and Mr. Tinker's resiaeiaCe. TVIr. Chnich brought an action. of trover for the chickens, claiming them on the ground that his hen laid the . eggs and did the best part of the setting. • The case 'was tried on Saturday, and judgment was given for plaintiff to recover eight cents I apiece for the chickens: FREIVIONVS PROSPECTIVE WEALTH. —lt is not generally known how extensive . are the works on the Fremont estate in I California. A late. San Francisco journal says there are now seven quartz mills in i operation, and adds: The average yield of these mills recently was over $340 per day each, over $2,300 per day collectively, and nearly $19,000 for eight days run I The last eight days' product reached $lB,- 1 996 31 in gold bars, which arrived here oh Monday last. The gold, we understand is pretty evenly distributed th7ougliout the quartz, so that there is no likelihood of much fluctuation in the yield. At this rate the Colonel will be. entirely clear of all his complications in the course of two or three months and then he will commence to re 1, alize near a million dollars per annum or (counting it at that rate exactly) $2,575 35 every. day .or . theyeari I.

Won & Co.; dents :.--The letter I wrote you in 1856 concerning your valuable Hair Restorative, and which you have published in this vicinity and else where, has given rise to numerous enquiries touching the facts in the case. The enquiries are, first, is it a fact of my habitation and name, as stated in the com munication; second, is it true of all therein contained ; third, does my hair still continuo to be in good order and of natural color? To all I eau and do answer in variably.yes. My hair is even better than in any stage of my life for 40 years past, more soft, thrifty, and bet ter eoluredohe same is true of my whiskers, and the only cause why it is -net generally, true, is that the substance is washed off by frequentablution of the face when if care were used by wiping the face in close eon• motion with the whiskers. the saute result will follow as the hair. I have been in the receipt of a great num- Mir of letters front all parts ,d'New E ng l an d , as ki ng me if My - bib...stiff cootie ties to be good: us there's so much fraud in the manufactureandsale of various compounds as well as this, it,has, no doubts been basely imitated and been usedoiet only without any good effect to absolute injury.. I have not used any of your iteactra tive of any account thr some months, and yet nyy, her ds as good as ever, and hundreds have examined. it with surprise, as I am now 61 years old and not p gray hair in.my bead or ou my face; and to prove this filet, I send you a leek of my hair taken off the post week. I re• ceived your favor of two qua . t,hattlee las summer, for which 1 am grateful: I gavMp to,my friends and there by induced them to try it, many were skeptical until after trial, and then purchased and used it with univer sal success. I will ask as a favor, that you send me a test by which I emu discover fraud in the Restorative, sold by many,. I fear, without authority from you.
