4ntelligencer & 3ournal. Lancaster, November 9, 'SW. GEO. SANDERSON, EDITOR. \\N The Printer Wants Money. Now that the Presidential election is over and the Democracy every where triumphant, we hope our patrons will not be offended when we tell them—we mean those in arrears—that we need MONEY badly. Those indebted for subscription, advertising and job work, or either, will confer a great favor by paying us what is justly our due.— The approaching Courts will afford a favorable op portunity, to many, who cannot come to town, to send it with their neighbors. Those living out of the County or State can remit by mail at our risk. The Result. FRANKLIN PIERCE and WILLIAM R. KING are •lected President and Vice President of the United Mates from and after the Fourth of March next.— TI 'hey are elected, too, by the largest majority that has ever been given at any Presidential election; 1 where a contest was made. That the government, 1 under their guidance, will he administered faithfully and energetically, and in such a manner as will pro mote the happiness of the people and the welfare and glory of the country:, we have not a doubt. It has always been so conducted when in the hands of the Democracy. The people have tried Whig, fiery for four years, and find that Whig rulers are utterly incompetent and inefficient to guide thehelm; and now they have restored it to Democratic hands Where it will remain, in all human prdbability, for many, very many years to come The election of Gen. PJF.nCE to the Presidency puts an end to the Whig party, as s u ch. since th e death of Messrs. CLAY and ' WEBSTER they have no eaders left to guide and manage for them. By adopting the Democratic platform, at Baltimore, in une last, they effectually un-Whigged themselves Leommitted political suicide—and the inglorious Lleteat of Gen. SCOTT ,has driven the last nail in their coffin as a Whig party. Henceforth they must follow the lead of William H. Seward, of ew York, and gradually become a mere sectional arty or faction with Abolition affinities. The Na tional Whigs must, of necessity, do one of three 1 l ' this:—either become Abolitionits, set up for ( things:—either themselves, or join the Democratic party with ( themselves, views and feelings on the great question of slavery they more nearly coincide. Which of the i three courses pointed out they will pursue, time I will determine. But in either case they mustrese 'taste as a Whig party, and no longeralile to contend with the great Democratic party of the Union. Of the thirty-one States of the Confederacy, twen ty seven have now ranged themselves on the De mocratic side, and the strong probability is that they will, nearly all, continue in line during the present cent . nry. The spirit of Democracy-‘—pro gressive Democracy—is abroad in the land; the young men of the Nation are rallying to the stan dard of liberal principles, and it is no stretch of the imagination to believe that the Democratic party will go on increasing in strength and influence until there will be scarcely a vestige .of opposition left for them to contend against. Our Old Democratic City. The indomitable Democracy of this City have covered themselves all over with glory. They poll ed on Tuesday last 1351 votes, being an increa s e of 148 on the October election, on increase of 196 lon the Gubernatorial election of last year, and an increase of 27.1 on the Presidential election of ISIS. 'Tis true the majority is not in proportion to the increase of the vote, owing to the bribery, corrup tion, brow-beating, and tyranny resorted to by cer tain leading Whigs; hula is, nevertheless, 366 enough in all conscience to preserve the integrity of our glorious old City, and to show to the world that her Democracy are unconquered and uncon qherable. It were invidious to make distinctions between the different Wards, where all did their duty so faithfully ; but we may be permitted, in an. especial manner, to congratulate our friends in the north-east arid south-west wards, on the handsome increase upon their majorities at the October elec. lion. All hail to the 1351 Democratic voters of the invulnerable old city. • The Glorious Democracy of Lau easterVoimty. The entire Democratic vote of the county, accor ding to the official returns published in another col umn, it will be seen is 6515. This is the high est vote ever our party polled in the county—being 352 higher than the vote of Governor BIGLER last year, and 49S more than were cast for Gen. CAss in 18.18. We rather guess the party was organized ED - The highest Democratic vole ever berore polled in this county was 0226, which was given to Col. BIGLER at the last Gubernatorial election. At the election on Tuesday last, Gen. PIERCE re ceived r,i7s, showing an increase of 352 votes on the election of last year, and proving conclusively that the party never before was so well organized in the county. We hope to hear no more of a want of efficiency in the Chairman or members of the County Committee. 113 As the American people have given Gen. Scott bluer licks, we presume he will now have more time to attend to the location of a military iospital. The " sweet German accent " and the "rich Irish brogue" will not trouble him so much, and it is to be hoped that he will take good care not to be agriin Caught with his b—s down!" Torch Light Procession. The Democrats of Lancaster City will have a grand Torch Light Precession, on Thursday eve ning next, the 11th inst., in honor of the overwhel ming victory achieved at the Presidential election, by the Democrats of the Union. Our Democratic friends from the county are invited to be present and participate. 1 Governor BIGLER ' S great speech, delivered in Monument Square, Ba'timbre, on the Friday eve ning immediately preceding the Presidential elec tion, is every where spoken of with high commen dation. It is a most able and convincing argument throughout in favor of the measures and men of the Democratic party, and had doubtless-a happy effect in bringing about the gloriOis victory achieved in the Monumental city. The Governor did the cause of Democracy good service in the campaign which has just closed. He Was "instant in season and out of season," ready and willing, stall times and un der all circumstance's, to do battle for the right. The Democracy will hold him in grateful remem brance. irr Hon. EDWARRnEVERETT, of Massachusetts, has received the appointment of Secretary of State, to succeed Mr. WEBSTER. The President, we think, has been fortunate in the selection. Mr. E. will will retire on the 4th of March next. 117' The Goyernor has respited BLAaSE Sausersr- SRI, the younger Polish brother, convicted of the murder of young Lehman in Philadelphia, until the 3d of December. He was to have been executed sn Friday last. E - The Democracy of this city had a glorious rally at the Court House, on Monday night, the eve of the election. Hon. JAMES BUCHANAN pre sided and made a truly able and eloquent speech of more than an hour. Col. REAR FRAZER also ad dressed the meeting. • lErThe entire vote polled in this city, on Tues day last, was 2336, the largest ever given—be ing an increase of 301 on the October election, and of 330 over the Gubernatorial election of last year 'Olll, TH S leads the Colun►n' `Scott IFOR SALT RIVER, With his 4 b----s down,' and his rear terribly d iddled by Pennsylva nia B uckshot and Ball!

The official returns show a Majority of 5058 for Gen. SCOTT, in the largest vote 'ever polled in the county. Nor do we marvel at 'ever result, knowing as we do the extradrdinary means, fair and foul, made use of by the leaders of the Nirlaig party to swell their majority. They resorted to every thing --no matter how disgraceful—Hto accomplish the result. With them the end to be obtained justified the means employed. Money ] , was lavished in abundance; voters were openly bribed and bought over; threats were held in terrorem over many poor men and their families; Sunday and Saturday, night and day, were colporteur l s abroad in every nook and cdrner of the country, circulating lying pamphlets and atrocious slanders upon Gen. PrEncE; their orators and spouters ba l sely lied in their speeches; in short, ever thing was done, that de peration and malice could concoct in the brain of unscrupulous leaders, to gull and defraud, bully and brow-beat the honest and unsuspecting citizens of the country into the support of their pop-in-jay can didate. So complete were all their arrangements, that before and on the day of the election, they were confident of carrying the county by six thou sand majority, and the wonder is that, after such exertions and appliances, they were not successful- But thanks to the indomitable Democracy of Lancaster county, (and a truer band of patriots are not to be found in the State,) the leaders of Federal ism had calculated without their host. Our friends were not caught napping. There were to be found over sixty-6e hundred good and true men who could not be persuaded ob bullied, bought or bribed, into the support of old "Fuss and Feathers." Instead of giving six thousand, their majority is but a little over five thousand, Or nearly 300 less than that given to Taylor four years ago. And in addition to this falling off in th i ?ir majority, many of them have also been stripped of their money and their character, and have to endure the bitter re flection that they have lost every thing but their rascality which, like the fabled 'shirt of Nessus, will cling to them as long as they live. The honest portion of the Whig party, when they come to find out the rascality anti tyranny practised by their leaders, as many of them have already done, will desert their colors as rats do a sinking ship, and for the future arrayijthemselves on the side of honesty, integrity and Democracy. 117 - The best proof we have been of the cowardice attributed to General Pune'', liy the Whigs, is the way he run at the last election ! t Rich Brogue!

Important from Gen. Scott; A despatch from Washington, to the Phil adel phia Ledger, dated Nov. 1. (the day before the elec tion,) says: "General Scott has within a few days expressed himself very confident of his election by a large majority." Wonder what the General thinks by this time.— He received "a fire in the rear" on Tuesday such as he never experienced before. No doubt he is again "fired with indignation r The Cause and Effect We have been a somewhat active participator in seven consecutive Presidential elections, including the one just terminated, but never have we seen any one to compare to this—if we take into account the issues involved and the immense majority by which the successful candidate is brought into pow er. The great contest of 1828 was not to compare with it, nor was the-greater one of 1840. In the first instance Gen. JACKSON had but 17S of the 273 electoral votes of the nation, and in the second Gen. HARRISON had 234 of the 204. Both of these re sults were considered tremendous majorities in the electoral colleges, and they truly were so; but the 274 votes of the 206 by which Gen. PiEncs comes into power, is unprecedented in Our political strug gles. The people have emphatically spoken, and not without cause. The Federal party', which rode in to place four years ago On the shoulders of a suc cessful military chieftan, abused the trust confided to them, as they uniformly do when they steal into power, for which they Lase been, brought to a strict account and fearfully condemned at the bar of public opinion. Nor could the military character and successes of a victorious General save them from the disastrous consequences attendant upon their abuses. Indeed,. the tinsel and trappings of their candidate rather accelerated than retarded their downfall. The people had triedone purely mili tary candidate, and found him utterly incompetent to the discharge of Presidential duties, and they could not be induced to again resort to the Army for the chief executive officer of the'Nation. In the elec tion of Gen. Tarcoa they saw that a dangerous precedent was about to be established, which, un less nipped in the bud, might end in the...destruction , of our institutions, as was the case with all the Re publics of antiquity, and they were not willing to' imperil the liberties of their country, either present or prospective, by entrusting the destinies of the country in the hands of a vain-glorious, weak, but ambitious military chiettan. The fiat of the people has gone forth. The race' of mere military Presidents is at an end. The country requires a statesman to manage the affairs of the government; and a statesman of enlarged experience has been selected by an overwhelming majority of the free citizens of the Republic. Not only so, but a precedent has been established that, hereafter, statesmen must be nominated as candi dates for the Chief Magistracy of the Nation, if the Whig party would even make a respectable show of opposition to the Democracy. Drums and fifes, fuss and feathers, epaulettes and - swords, have had their brief day, and for the future the Army is about the last place in the wprld that even the Whig party will look to furnish their candidate for the Presidency. We are . sincerely rejoiced at the glorious result of Tuesday. last. It aughrs well for the safety and permanency of our tree institutions.

Straw awl mattresses would be entirely done ,way with, if husk beds were once tried. They -re not only more pliable than mattresses, but are sore durable. The first cost is but trifling. To sire husks nice and clean, they may be split after he manner of splitting straw for braiding. The 'finer they are split the softer will be the bed, al hough they will not be likely to last as long as • Olen put in whole. Three barrels full, well stow -d in, will fill a good sized tick, that is, after they r ave been split. The bed will always be light, the -tusks do not become matted down like feathers, mil they are certainly more healthy to sleep upon. ' Feather beds ought to be done away with, espec -dly in warm weather. For spring, summer and ill, husk beds ought to be " all the go," and such I ndoubtedly. will be the case., when they are • rought into use. There is no better time to pro , ire husks than when the corn is harvested, and Ie husks will be much nicer and cleaner when 1 , ) ,e corn is cut up at the bottom and put in stacks. g hey do not become so dry and weather beaten.— r is calculated that a good husk bed will last from ,enty-five to thirty years. Every farmer's (laugh _r can supply herself with beds (against the time need) at a trifling expense, which is quite an ilicement, now-a-days. • tt Wm. P. Schell. "'Mu.

The soil of the country, was poor and did not yield good crops of grain or tobacco, and many of the first settlers left. In 1845 the experiment of grape culture on the hills—which are from 300 to 600 feet high, with a southern exposure—was tried, and successfully.

A Brnh:s EYE Vrew OF OREGON:A letter to the Al ist.ouri RepublicM, dated Aug. 17th, from Ore- This year's emigration is beginning to drop in upon us. They report great distress on the last end of the route, from the lack of grass, teams giving out, and depredations committed by the Snake In dians, west of Fort Hall, &c. What the poor emi grant will do this year for food, alter' he gets in, God only knows. Now, flour sells quick at $2O per barrel, and just after harvest when it is gener ally at its lowest price. Wheat can't be bought for bread or seed for less than $2,60 now, and some ask $3, $4 and $3 per bushel, and say they won't sell until they get that. The emigrant can't pay such prices, be will not have the means to do so, and thereby must suffer. You may ask, "has your wheat crop failed in Oregon?" No sirs; there is no such a thing as crops of any kind failing here. But men's disposition to work has failed, hardly raising enough for themselves of either bread or seed—rnaking their living, and having some to "salt down' out of their stock, butter, cheese, pork, ba con, eggs and chickens. Cows readily bring $75, beet cattle $lO per hundred pounds on hoof; Amer ican horses and mules 150 dol. to 300 dol.; huller 30c; cheese 60c per pound; pork this year will be worth 35 dol; bacon about 50c, eggs quick at 1 dol. per dozen; chickens at the farmer's door 12 dol. per dozen, all of which accumulates on and around the farm without labor. CUMDZIALARD COUNTY SLAVE Cuss.— Verdict for the Plaintiffs!—We learn from the Philadelphia Sun of Tuesday last, that the jury in the case of Oliver et arys. Weakly et al, after being out from Thursday morning of last ~veek, until Saturday evening last; came into court and sent for the Judge and clerk to receive their verdict, not desi ring to remain locked up over Sunday. The judge and clerk Soon made their appearance and receiv ed their verdict. It was for the plaintiffs, in the sum of S2SOO against Cauffman, and not guilty as to the other two defendants, Stephen Weakly and Philip Brechbill. The trial commenced on the 19th of last month. It was for harboring and assist ing thirteen fugitive slaves to escape from their masters. This action settles the fact that juries in the United States Court will give verdicts against persons who aid in the escape of fugitive slaves , althMigh some of the jurors are taken from infect ed districts•Of country. Guano wi the Lobos Islands—lts Qualify and Worth.—According to a communication just sent in to the, London Times, the Lobos Islands have a value attached to them, in comparison with which the riches of California are of small account. In his opinion the quantity of guano on the three Lo• bos Islands amounts to two hundred and fifty mil lions of tons ! To exhaust this pile of undeveloped food, taking one million of tons a year, would take two hundred and fifty years, and to transport which would em ploy for two hundred and fifty , years, one thousand ships of a thousand tons capacity each; The value_ ofthis vast amount of manure treasure at two cents per pound.(whith is below the mark,) will amount to $10,000,000,000. Ten billions of dollars! what a bank that.,would make, and here it is all founded on three small islands by the fowls of the sea.— How many years did it take for those fowls to de posit such. an abundance cf matter for the enrich-- ment of the barren fields of England andthe United States? On every hand there are evidences of the world being much older externally than men have been accustomed to hold it, or than men have had any authority for so holding it by revelation. FRIGHTFUL AcrlmaaT.—On Saturday last, at the iron ore bed of Daniel Guth, in South White hall township, Lehigh county, at present in the oc cupancy of the Crane Iron Company; two Ger mans and an Irishman were engaged in taking out ore in one of the Shells, in a depth of about seventy feet. In the morning before they went in they no ticed a small crack which, however, they did not think was dangerous, and entered as usual to work; but at 11 o'clock the mass of earth gave way, about eight feet wide, extending the 70 feet down to the spot were the men where at work, and bu ried them to the depth of some 30 or 40 feet. The superintendent of the mines immediately despatch ed some fifty hands to the spot, who were at work uncovering on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, but had not succeeded in recovering the bodies of the unfortunate men. One of the Ger mans named Peter Wieser, leaves a wife and four children. The other, Peter Bell, has but lately em igrated to'this country, and his Wife and one child are now, it is said, on their way here. Barney McLarney is a single man.

James Jackson left the patient at two o'clock in the afternoon. During the early part of the afternoonithere was some decrease in the swelling of :11r. Wobsteee abdomen, and fewer symtoms of nausea; but there were no signs of rallying. Repeatedly in the course of the forenoon, and the early part of the afternoon, he conversed freely and with great clearness of detail in relation to his private affairs and the condition of Isis farms, sta ting his plans fully, and the manner in which he wished to have them carried out. About half past five o'clock Mr. Webster was again seized with violent nausea, and raised consid• erable dark matter tinged with blood. Exhaus tion now increased rapidly, and his physicians held another consultation, which resulted in a conclu sins that his last hour was fast approaching. He received the announcement and requested that the female members of his family might be called in, viz: Mrs. Webster, Mrs. Fletcher Webster, Mrs. J. W. l'aige and Miss Downs, of New York; to each calling them individually by name, he ad, dressed a few words of farewell and religious con solation. Next he had called in the male members of his family and the personal friends who have been here within the last hew days, viz : F. Webster, (his only surviving son) Samuel A. Appleton, (his son-in law.) J. W. Paige, Geo. F. Curtis, Edward Curtis of New York, Peter Harvey and Charles Henry Thomos, of Marshfield, and Messrs. Geo. J. Abbott and. W. C. Zantzinger, both of the State Depart ment at Washington—addressing each by name be referred to his past relations with them p.spective ly, and one by one bade them an affectionate fare ell. This was about halt-past six. He now had Mr. Peter Ilarvey called in again, and s to him "Harvey, lam nut so sick but that I know you—l am well enough to lcnow you. I am well enough to love you, and well enough to call down the richest of Heaven's blessings upon you and yours. Harvey, don't leave me till lam dead—don't leave Marshfield till lama dead man." Then, as it speaking to himself, he said:—" On the 24th of October, all that is mortal of Daniel Web ster will be no more." He now prayed in his natural usual voice— strong, full, and clear—ending with "Heavenly Father, forgive my sins and receive me to thyself, !Ivo' Christ Jesus." At half-past seven o'clock Dr. J. M. Warren ar rived from Boston to relieve Dr. Jeffries as the im mediate medical attendant. Shortly after he conversed with Dr. Jeffries, who said he could do nothing more for him than ad minister occasionally a sedative portion, " Then," said 111 r. Webster, " I am to be here patiently till the end ; if it be so, may it come soon." At ten o'clock he was still lower, but perfectly concious of everything that passed within his sight or hearing. Doctor Jades and Porter have intimated an opinion that the immediate cause of the disease was a cancerous affection of some of the smaller intestines. Should he die in the course of the night, an ex press will instantly start for Boston with intelli HIS DEATH Afars/field, Sunday morning, 4 o'clock. The Hon. Daniel Webster, the greatest of American states man is no more ! He died at 22 minutes of 3 o'clock, in tn't - seventy-first year of his age. During the last hour he was entirely calm, and breathed his last so peacefully that it was difficult to fix the precise moment that he expired. $950,000
