The Elect'sii.
We publidi, below, all the • returns which have
readied us, up to the hour of gt'tiug to press. We
can hardly form art estimate from what we have,but
should judge that Gen. -Taylor has majority over
Gen. Cass, of nearly 1000 in the County. The vote
for Mr. Van Buren will prOhably reach 1.500,--the
strong Van Buren townships yet remaining to be
heard from. We give the returns, and the vote for

NORTH BRANCH CANAL—The Wilkes-Barre Ai . -
vocate_says,of this work, " If the next Legislature
ran devise means by which the State may'finish
the North Brandt Canal, no time should be lost in
accomplishing it. It is an important link in the
chain of State Improvrements. Finished, it would
yield,more revenue than any other section of Ca
nal in the State of same extent. Hence its cornple
tion is of great moment to the State : of very great
moment to Northern Pennsylvanin. The State has
expended much money already on this work, and
by finishing it; would realize a full equivalent back
into the Treasury. No effort should be spared to
deviSe means to do it. It ii to be hoped that the
Legislature will make the consideration of this sub
ject a prominent:item of business."

Tate Cuot.cas.—The alarm which was at ling
created by the appearance of the cholera has sensi
bly ciliated. The Register General of London has
reported 30 additional cases up to last Saturday,
but on the -other hand the general health is better
this year than in ordinary years, there being only

The govemtnent has already become satisfied
that the precautionary , measures of quarantine are

away entirely with the regulations which enforce
the observance of quarantine ' even in the cases
where deaths have occurred from Asiatic Cholera
on board vessels coining from C rntittental ports.
laccAtau--Surtrt ffitalf.a.—The Lord Lieuten
ant, in reply to a deputation of the inhabitants of
Dublin an I its vicinity, declines giving any direct
answer to the memorial, beyond the assurance that
full weight will be given so the recommendation
of the highly respecttible jury which tried him.
The formalities fitr b•ing,ing the writ of error have
all been complied with by the . legal advisers of
Olhien, but the of cial. privilege oCrefusing the
certificate, with widen tne Attorney General is in.
vested, will nitrite exercised by that officer until
after his return to Dublin.
Mr. Olknonghne after some hours deliberation
by the jury, has been found guilty, and a recom
mendation to mercy accorded in consequence of
his having withdrawn and disconnected himself
from his associates previous to any overt attack.

FaAxcx.—The partial change in the administra
lion of Gen, Cavaignac is eitther the,prelude4o his
own retirement from office, or more probably to
some convulsion brought about by the Bed Re
publicans and the Reptiblicane de la Vielle—they
who were republicans before the 24th of Febuary
—bei tg so early deprivett.of the sweets of sover
eign authority. Gen. Cavaignac had no alternative.
He perceived that the majority in the Assembly
was formed of Loyalists, Legitimists and modem
Republicans. ' They who had become Republicans
after the 24th of Febnary possessed the power of
excluding him from office at .any moment, and,
having been himself raised to honor by the Repub
licans de la Viclle and the party of the National, he
had no other recourse but to attempt the policy of
conciliation.
The result has been that Decrees, the Prefect of
Paris, has written a letter, resiping his office, and
in plain terms says he disapproves of Cavaitznac's
adroit policy, and in presence of thedang,ers which
menace liberty in France, while it triumphs in Ger
many, he shall rental( his place amongst the ad
versaries of royalty, which he a ill combat under
all disguises. lie concludes siunificantly : " All
,-oldiers,of the Democracy must he at their . post ;
mine has ceased to be where my political sympa
thy exist no longer."

VI KNII A.—The! stupendous events which are Fus
sing in the neighborhood of Vienna and the Aus
trian empire, has kept all Europe in alarm and
amazement during the week.
Last week we announced the breaking out of an
insurrection at Vienna, on the Ist On the Bth ,
the Ban of Crotia, Jel;ichich, at the head of a nu.
memos army was advancing towards Peeth, with
the view of.supporting the insurrectionary procee
dings in Ilutprv, but when the intelligence of the
revolution in Vienna reached him. he instantly
turned his columns in the direction of Vienna, and
advanced with rapid stridestowards the capital.
Fatturrirt. DESTMTION.—The New Orleans Bee
has a letter from a friend on board the U. S. store
ship El kite, vihieh describes the condition of the
crew c t 4he Ocean Bride, wrecked in the late gale.
It i•ays : .
We are. abreast of Havana, after, being seven
days out; last Satunlay, as we were enjoying a
glass of wine after dinner, the man on the look
out reported a wreck eight miles on. The captain
immediately ordered the ship about, and to steer
for it,
and in about an hour we came tip to it, when
what a pitiful sight presented itself—there five hu
man beings, all of whom had nearly lost their rea
son from hunger and exposure, and wete drinking
salt water.
The captain ordered out the life boat, and in less
than no time the men "assisted the sufferers on
board, when it was found, by asking the onljz n e
that could speak, that their vessel was the
Bride'
s from Laguna, Honduras, (Yucatan) bound.
to London , with logvrood and mahogany. Having
on Monday night encounered a gale, she was dun-
masted, and the captain and five more of the crew
were swept overboard b,y a sea breaking over her,
which also swept all thew water and everything on
deck away. There were six men still hell on board
with no food or water, as in a short lime the sea
broke over so furiously that the bold was filled.
On Wednesday they lost the that mate, one of
the six that were not washed away, and so great
was their hanger, (horror to narrate,) that on
Thursday they cut his arm off said ate it.
I believe uow I have g iven you a full Alescrip
lion, as it was told me by the second mate of the .
Ocean - Bride. Now for the survivors. The cap-
tain had them put toted and their watuuts ‘ dreased
as they had a great many severe,cuta about them,
and most of them had their hands and feat swollen
to-an immense size ;be !ben bad them some nour
ishment cooked. The first night three of them
were delirious, and in the morning their craving
for water was most pitiful On Monday night we
last them—the others are all recovering fast, and 1
hope will Soon be out of danger.

DEATH Or DIHGATMER GEX MLA L STEPHEN W.
K CAN.:cwt.—Gen. Stephen W. Kearney, the conque
ror of New Mexico and California, is now no more.
His disease has had a fatal termination, as was fear
ed, and he died yesterday, as is announced through
the telegraph ken St. Louis. Of all the officers in
the army, none has rendered more service to his
cou»iry. He entered •it in 1812, was at the fa- ,
moos battle of Queenstown, and from the k ratik of
of Lieutenant rose to that of a Brigadier general.
But the most remarkable service that he performed,
was that in New Mexico and California. the form
er of which, by the celerity of his movements and
the excellence of his plans, he entered. and receiv
ed the complete submission of the inhabitants with
out a single battle r and the latter, joined with the
naval forces andsr Stockton, he conquered . after
several hard fought and successful banks: His
march from Santa Fe to California aas one of the
most daring acts 'that heroism could undertake.
With only a lew follo-sent, between twenty and
thirty, he had several engagements with an enemy
greatly superior in force, through all of whom he
cut his way succession:, though severely woun
ded in one of the encounters. Het was a brave
and chiralrie officer, was prudent as heroic, and
the army and his country lose one of its most gal
lant spirits JO his death. Congress, notwithstan
ding the opposition made in a high quarter in the
Senate, did an act of jnstice when it confirmed his
nomination to his present rank. Gen. Kearney
was born in Newark, New Jersey, about the
year 1793, and was thus in his 55th year at the
time of his death.
SINGULAR CL9C. or ADIALGAMATiON.--AbINN three
weeks ago, a package containing r. , 3700 was stolen
from on Loam one of the boats playing
between
this city and Norwich, Counecticut, and thus far no
satisfactory clue has been obtained likely to lead to
the recovery of the money. Yesitrday a negro,
w4l known to the police as Bob Moore, arid of
onf New England's fair daughters, a young women
who gave her name as Maria Hutchinson, verc ar
rested at a house in Mulberry street on suspicion
of having committed the. robbery. On questioning
the latter respecting her acqnaintance with Moore,
she stated that she was the daughter of a respecta
ble and influential citizen of Vermont, and that
about i iic weeks ago, in consequence of an alterca
tion with her father, she ran away from home, and,
in Boston, got acquainted, with a colored sailor, na
med Hutchinson, whom she married and avowed
her intention of returning home with him. in order
to modify her parents as much as possible, on an,
count of the course of conduct which they had pur•
sued towards her. After being married to Hutch
inson a fortnigh., he shipped on board a vessel at
Boston, rather precipitately, having ireviously be
come acquainted with Moore,
and introduced him
to his wife. No sooner had Hutchinson got out of
Boston harbor than Moore ' commenced making
love to his friend's wife, and finally succeeded in
pursnading her to come to this city with him. On
their arrival here, they engaged apartments at a
house in Mulberry street, where they have been
livid as man and wile. The latter appears to have
received a liberal education, and converses freely
respecting her situation, but refuses to give her mai
den name, having, in some measure, changed her
mind on the subject of di-gracing her parents. At
present she and her colored paramour remain in
prison, for further examination —N. V. Star.
DR. V. P. Coot.tnat.—This unhappy man is now
confined in a cell of the prison in Augusta, Me., of
which the: ground dimensions do not exceed eight
feet by four. A part of this narrow room is occu
pied by his bed. The cell has no window, the
light and air being admitted through iin aperture in
the door. His friends say he cannot survive the
winter. Governor Dana called the attention of the
Legislature to the case last summer, and requested
that body to say whether they wished to have the
convict executed or not at the end of the year—The
warden of the prison also requested that some en
largement or change of treatment might be order.
e d ; but the Lftrislatme declined to take action in
the matter. A brother of Coolidge has lately been
from Ohio to see him. A sister, whose home is in
Mississippi, is now in Maine, and will there spend
the winter.
IH.ss Bran vo Drain.---O n Thursday evening
bust, a mrk4 naelancoly accident occurred near
Kennett Square, Chester county, Pa. An old gen
tleman, named James Holland, between 70 and
80 years of age, during the absence of the family,
as he was in the habit of doing, had entered his
barn as is suppised, with a light, for the purpose
of procuring feat for his hogs, and by some means
unknown, the hay or straw caught fire trout the
candle, and in a few minutes the building was in
a blaze. The barn, together with about one bun
dm! bushels -of grain was totally - destroyed, and
sad to relate the old gentleman was consumed in
the same. Nothing but a portion of his body was
found, all his limbs being entirely blunt up.

mints of nearly all the citizens of this town and
Sheldon, that the death of Mrs. Shadbolt never

Monday, such was the excitement against him that
there was serious talk of ". lynching;' cooler coon

his arrest was being issued here, Shadbolt passed
through here under the charge of constable (IloO

crime of murder. His examination was to take
place yesterday before Esq. Fillmore. Without
expressing any opinion as to the guilt or innocence
of Stiliclbolt, of the murder of his wife, we cannot
withhokl oar condemnation of the crimesof which
he has been guilty. He has been one of a numer

ten years, has harbored a gang of ruire fox
among whom has been Shadbolt--who have-ren
dered themselves notorious for their depredations
on society, in the destruction of property, and other
outrages ma necessary to enpmerate. There has
never been any conviction 'of the rascals, of these
crimes for want of :renal proof, although no doubt
could be entertained of their guilt ; therefore man
slautter, arson, tresspass rind assault have been
com Med with impunity. Whatever the result
of the present examination may be the means of
breaking up a gang of land pirates, whose clepre

A Nolte Dec) NOBLY Rcw►anca--The New
York Journal of Commerce says :—ln the latter
part of last summer, a young and only daughter 'of
Mr. Corcoran, (of the firm of Corcoran & Riggs)
of Washing on city, was playing with some friends
on a wnarf, in the rear of the grounds of Capt
Charles Williams, at Stonington, Conn., and step
unto a boat, which, by some acculent, was
loosened and drifted from the shore. The child,
frightened at the danger, jumped overboard. Mr.
Gordon Smith, a boat builder, who was near by,.
swain in and rescued her at the last moment of
struggling, Mr. Corcoran was in Europe at that
time, engat.Ted in business, as is widely known.
He has since returned, and we saw last week a
letter from him to Mr. Smith, expressing his grati
tude, and enclosing one thousand dollars as a testi
mony of it. This is a reward at once unexpected
10 the receiver and noble in the giver, doing honor
to the heart of the father. Mr, Smith is, we' are
glad to be informed, a worthy recipient, highly
esteemed by all who know him.

THRILLING INCIDEXT AT Tllt essocare..—Noble
Gallantry of the Lion.—On Thursday of last week,
during the heavy Winn of wind and rain, while
the extensive collecfion,of wild beasts in the me
nagerie of blesser. Raymond & Waring were in the
village of Norwalk, a feature was introdamd in the
exhibition not previously announced in the bills.—
About bur in the afternoon a violent gust of wind
blew down the canvass which forms the large pa
vilion, completely enveloping the spectators and
cages of animals in one common mass of confu
sion. The accident happened at the time when
bliss Adelina, the Lion Queen as she is styled, was
performing in the den of wild beasts, and as the
fright of the animals rendered them seemingly an.
coutrolahle, great fears were entertained for the
safety of that interesting young lady. At this mo
ment a scene of indescribable terror and confusion
presented itself. The roaring of the terri fi ed beasts,
the screams of women and cildren, and the " pel
ting* of the pullers storm" without rendering the
scene truly appalling. The panic, however, w
but momentary. es the prompt and energetic mea
sores taken by . the managers soon cleared
wreck, no person having received the slightest in
jury.
But the most intensely interesting incident
mains to be told. The uproar, among the lions, ti,
gers and leopards in the performing cage, gave ri
io a report that they were devouring Miss Adelina
In the next instant the canvass was stripped fm
the cage, when a tableaux presented itself such
would defy either poet, painter, or sculptor to , po
tray with accuracy. In the centre of the den
young and beantiful lion, (the same recently p -
'tented to Gen. Cass. by the F.mperor of Morocco. .
in a rimpant position, - formed the strong feature I
the picture : benea hone of his hind feet lay great
ed the dead body of a leeward, and stn ling vri
in the invincible grasp of his fore paws were t
tiger and surviving leopard. In the opposite end f
the cage, transfixed as a statue of marble, wit
dauntless eye and maje stic, attitude, the same •
when she commands t he wild beasts to crouch
her feet, stood the lion Queen, Miss Adelina. Th
"young lady states that the two leopards and the -
ger made a simultaneous spring for her at the m
meat the canvass was blown down, and were
pulsed by the noble gallantry of the lion, who bon -
ded between them, and protected her in the ma
ner described. The presence of the keeper, , r.
Pierce, soon minced the savage groups to PU •
