TO*iinda, Wednesday, Demi 6, NA The Democracy of• Bradford The Presidential. contest is 'row over, and we irustihat the De!nocranc party of this Colimy, who !CAW reason to (filler with regard to the exididates presented foi their support ; will no Imiger Mal cause for separate actior. The past, with its asperities. as collisions and emdlicts. should be forgotten. Let ()plotters be by-runes. The only real dillcrence of action has been upon (eaters of ems d envy and of judgment. There has been a unity of feeling upon all the great questions of ihe day. Particularly a e the Democracy of Bradlord uni:ed and tbianimous coon the great question of Free Territory. Nor should one portion sit in judgment upon. another, who-may have (filleted in regard to the course to be adopted to carry out this plinciple. Both, we believe, have acted in good faith, and kir what they deemed the best iicrests-of the Democratic party. With the content have pas-ed away the eaurses which produced a difference of action in the Dem ocratic party, Such .a result, it is perfectly plain. will not again ts'-cur. The Democracy %%ill not again find cause to differ. The harmony and suc cess of the party will not be jeoparded by circum stances six+ as have arisen dming the present year. Under the broad lulls of the glorious banner of which Jefferson and Jackson have been the stand ard-bearers, the Democracy are bound to triumph in future conflicts. To do this, however, they must be united and harmonious. We say again, the past should be buried in 'oblivion. Democrat- 4 —• men whpse integrity cannot be questioned—found themselves acting separately, if not antagonistically. Both saw the necessity, and if in the heat of parti zan zeal, unpleasant feelings may have been en gendered, ail pethapS found vent, yet we have no doubt, the calm reflection which there has been time to indulge, has shown that both, At least, were acing with honest purposes—the-one, in support of ancient usages—the other, in defence of a princi: rile which was _supposed to• overshadow all other issues. It is unfortunate that such . a diversity of opinion and action should have existed, but if did exist., tout while the motives of all are entitled to respect : them should gilt remain the same: feelir_ nt triter My, now that the barriers are passed : that proved a source of separation. From all we can learn, though. about equally di vined upon the question of the Pnesid - bncy, there ex ists the best possible state of teeing. among the De mocracy of Bradford, in reference to boom action. There it; no breach, no division, no difTerenee o .feeling. They are as they ever were, a lion hearted ftenincracy, and net truer, or steadier, upon 1+ nil the cardinal principles of our 'alib i can be found to any section.

The prisoner was tirouglitto this place on Theis day, from the jail of Tier county, where he has been in rongnement for some by - Shei itt . Donnixs. We understand he manifested no disposition to avoid the dreadful death which awai ted hint, but . exhibiteil every manifes•ation of be ing completely subdued iu spirit and humbled in heart—broken down by his long centinement, and -heart-crushed by the continued oanteruplation of the aw put fate to which hi, was doomed. During the short period of his life spent here, on Thursday •and Friday; he was visited by the Cle.gymen of our place, whose endeavors to direct his attention to " Him who taketh away the sins of the Wolid," as his last refuge and hope, were not without en- Couragement and effect. • Arrangement-4 were made for his execution in the middle roomy op the North side of the Jail.— The scaffold was erected with a drop of about three feet. At a few 'minutes part 2 o'clock, clothed in the habiliments of the grave, and attended by the Sheriff and the Rev: Mr. Parvin of the Episcopal church, and Rev. Mr. Brown, of the Methodist church, he entered the execution room. His ap pearance was ghastly, and indicated lung and in tense suffering., but with a firm and unfaltering step he ascended io the scaffold and took a seat. Ile then knelt in prayer, and Rev. Mr, Pavia read the beautiful and impressive service appointed by the Episcopal church. He was then told by the she riff, that he had twenty-five minutes to live, and if he wished to say anything, he had an opportunity. Ile arose and addressed a few winds to those as sembled, in so low a tcne as to be almost inaudi ble. We were unable to hear the precise words, but the substance was that he was innocent--that it had never evered his heart to murder his wife— that he was presumptous in making the remarks he did, which taken with the unfortuuate occurence, made it lorik bail—but he had no cap upon the pis tol—" depend upon it'—said he—" I had not."— At his request, Mr. Parr in again most fervenly en gaged in prayer, after which he calmly and quietly took his position upon the drop, the rope was adjust cd around his neck, the cap drawn over his face, and -afer shaking hands with a friend or two, at pm cisely half past two, the S:ie riff cut the tope,land the unfortunate man dropped—a lew stru,Afles and uvoluntary muz4:ular convukions, and the soul of he wretched prisoner had left its earthly tabernacle to try the realities of the Unkown World. There vas no apparent Ms.-it:mu or reluctance in his ac tions, while the dreadful preliminaries were being arranged, but he seemed to look upon Death as a 'chef from suffering. Nis remains after having been suspended about 30 minutes were cut dow . ?, and taken by his friends to Albany tom 'Ail), agreeably to his reques, for interment.

It will probably be very lengthy. Wno ()was TUC Srocg!—We believe it was Druid Webster, who in one of his great stump speeches, entered into some statistics showing that while hundreds of opetatives owned stuck to the Lowell Factories, scarcely a score of capitalists had anything whatever to do with them! If the profits then of these factories were large, didn't they go to the operatives and people? Aud was there any . thing which Democrats could reasonably and consistently object to in that? Such was the argument. Caleb Quirk got up a corporation for the mann factnre of soft soap. The capital was $1,000,000, divided into 20,000 shares of fifty dollars each. Of these Caleb Quirk owned - '1( ; 10.000 Oily Gammonowned • 5,000 Samuel Soap owned 4,800 200 farmers, operatives and " poor wid ows" owned one share each, being 200 • 20,000 Now this corporation asked the Government for. and got, such advantages, by way of " protection" from foreign competition that it Mott* its " soft soap"to a very profitable market, and made every year a dividend of 20 per cent, ar $lO on each share. In Misstate of .things, the people 'naturally com plained, and said that the corporation should sell them soap at a less price and be content with profits less exhorhitant. Three or four capitalists *ere getting rich altogether too fast, at the people's ex pense! Not at all, says Mr. Gammon nn the stump.— Not at all. For every capitalistwho has any inter est in this concern. there are more than sixty labor ite, men and farmers who are also 'interested.— Would yon begrudge them the making of a little money Would you raise a great cry because they a-o beneficed '! All this looks very fair on the surface: But af ter all, $2,000 only go annually to the poor laborers over whom so baud a shout is' raised and $198.000 go to the cotters of Quirk, Gammon, and Snap ! he " poor widow" takes $lO of the plunder, out of which thus consecrated, Caleb Quirk takes $lOO, 000, and erects therewith a palace on Beacon street giving occasionally a few thousand to the church, that his pious name may.descend with appropriate boners to posterity. • We don't believe that the Caleb Quirk who con trol the Lowel cotton mills will ever be so successful in the manufacture of "soft soap." as to impose such Miserable sophistry as we have above illus trated, successfully upon the people.—Coos County Democrat. EXTRAORDINARY ELOPF.3IENT.---AN lIEIRENS MAR RIED TO HER CoACOMAN.--.-AIIOIIICX one of these ex traordinary occurrences, called elopements, has just transpired _in our great city that is said to be distinguished for its worth, talents, and persever ance. About the fact is, that girls, when they are old enotrgli. desire to have husbands, and they will hat e them in " spite of my lord cardinal!" The case now under consideration, is one in no way dishonorable to the parties ; still it is curious and interesting. The lady in question belongs to a family worth a million of dollars and has been denied (so the story goes) her choice several times. She has at length, a husband, and she obtained him in her own way and that was a silent one. It ap pears that the youqg heiress, who is in sure expec tation of some hundred thousand, a few days since, indent, her coachman, a respectable Irishman, of " bring out" the ciriage, as she was desirous of taking a Endo exercise. The young coachman obeyed and a way; ti.ey went. It is not known what direction was taken but sure it is that on ‘Vednesclay last the partiCs who left as above described returned man and wife. The coachman Lad actually mar• ried his) oung mistress and is now the happy hus k-rind of one of the most interesting and beautiful ladies in our city; one whose wealth is irnmetkze and whose standing is ackuowledgd to be every way desirlible.

The elect of the weapon stunned him, and he tell to the ground. When he recovered, a.second blow was given, and he lay in this position a long time. After he was able to crawl to the door, he alarmed his family. who found him weak from fainting and the loss of blood. lie has been confined to his bed ever since The perpetrators of the outrage are yet unknown. Some threats have been made use of by a huge ne. gm, who hail on various occasions exhibited a dirk mid other weapons, not safe in the hands of acow antly chirkey. A warrant, we learn, is out for him He should be caught, and if guilty, suffer the ex trnnio penalty of the law. N. B.—Since the above article was in tyre, we learn that Mr. Atkinson is fast recovering. On Sun day last, he was able to take a walk about a quer ter of a mile to an acquaintance of his. If he is careful of himself, he wilt soon be able to go to work again. Awav W,in Cr.Nscaws.—The Pennsylvanian, in article under the above caption advises ddmocratie editors to abstain from all censures upon any por tion of the democratic party, in the Union and te comends concession and conciliation arnor.,g all.— This is certainly reasonable and excellent advice. We are glad that our friends of the Pennsyvlanian hare had their eyes opened to the truth, with a determination to follow the pillar of light, that has so suddenly broken upon their vision. Experience though severe, generally proves an excellent teach er.—Surdstry Amer-men.
