The majority for Pmacs in Peonsyltiania, will

from that at the October election. We will give the

An election was held in Slats:lel - tutees, on Mon.
day last, for State and Le4fslativeof&cer•, and for
three members of the present, and eleven of the
ensuing or Thirty-thin! Congress. — The result, so far
a• known, cox&rut the impression that bin a few
of the candidates have been' tnccessful, owing to
the fret that it rrgnires a 4irity to elect, and that
full tickets were nominated by the democrats, the
.arhigs, and the free toilers. Every scheme was
resorted to by the leaders of each parry to bring out
a full vote, and the contest seems to hare created
far more interest among the, people of that State
generally than did even the Presidential election
last Tuesday. In the city of Boston, the Webwer
and Scott whips in a measure, managed to pa . ch
up their difficu'iy, and gave Sir. Clifford, their can
clidate fur Governor, nearly three thousand rnajuri'y
over his competitors ; but elsewhere throughout the
Sate, the vote of the party falls greatly ' , hoc of the
poll last year, when Mr. Winthrop lacked some
eight thousand of being elected fn the Fu ,rth and
ed, hut in seven of the remaining nine districts
thel l e was no choke. The Legislature is doable!.

cf". it is proper to state that If: L. DrErresslell
Esc. for a year past asenciatcd with us in the edito r
rtal departtnent cif the Keystone, withdrew from his
connection with it on the 6th inst.
The above cur pars .- graph appears in the Keystone
of the 26th ult, iVe had observed that the name of
Mr. DIEFFENEACki was withdrawn from the head of
the editorial columns, and more par iculaily re
melted the change in the spirit and ability with
which the Keystone was conducted. This paragraph
of four lines, lardy in iti appeatatice, is all the
mention made of i , although it is cuss mazy, iu
taking leave of readers, to make some more fJr
/nal and extended announcement.
h would have been equally " proper" and quite
as deem to hare sta'ed, (or at least have allowed
M. D. to state) the reasons why the connexion vets
broken c.fr in t•uch a summary manner, instead of
that cavalierly disposing of the matter. We hare
heard several intimations regarding this change,
which we are slow to credit, and the more un w
ing to believe, because we had relied upon the
Keystone as the exponent of radical Democratic doc
trines, and the organ and mourn•piece of those of
our party, who have no sympathy with the plan
deters,- and desire to keep the Democratic party,
pure and undefiled. We have some curiosity to
know if the publication of a certain speech al Si
mon Cameron's is any indication of the hands in.o
which the Keystone has tallen—and else if its put
leation had anything to di with the a i:hdrawa I of
Mr. DIEMEBACII
The Keystone, after the death of the lamented
11/In.Lia, wadi
down into the 1 ,west depths of inef
ficiency, of servility to rlavery, and doughlacittn.
The late editors hai raised it Iran the blough, and
gained it a proud reputation as an able, indepen
dent, honest new:paper, in which the honest por
tion of the Democracy were beginning to take pride,

Ti IF. STATE ADAH N MEAT soN.—The

expectationa of our democratic firiends all over the
Unian. In fact it must be confesFed, that it has
overreached the calculations of the democracy of

warm support, it will Le freely admitted that the
State administration—the Governor, the Secretary

largely contributed to bring about the glorious re
sult.

peninsula cunnected with the coutinent by a narrow

passed three wioters there, about twenty years ago,
but an island, thus apparently reducing the latitude
of the west northern cape Witte continent of Arneri•

SINGULAR DUIGOvERY OF A 1 1 11$6010 DF.POSITE.—
A gentleman, who is doing busirress'as a stock bro

office tile room some years ago used as a banking
house by the Eagle Bank. In one comer cif the
room, a fire-proof vault is walled in with brick, gran.
ed around inside with iron, and closed by means of
double iron. doors. The broker,. ott Saturday, was
removing hum one of the dark corners of the vault
some rubbish and waste papers which had accu

in his hand between the gratings, it struck some
thing which sounded likg cam. Upor. examinina

Thinking that it must be some of the lands of the
Eagle Bank, the broker repaired with the treasure
to that institution, and requested the officers to try
and ascertain it the funds were theirs, Upon ex
amining the books, it was discovered that'some six

immediately swelled op the face of the pthir h tow,
and afflicted him with immediate blindness of troth
eyes. Art ;dorm was raised, turd assistance having
been powered, Gatlin was at once placed in a cab
and conveyed to the University College Hospital

Artificial respiration, galvanism, and every means
which medical science could suggest, was restored
to, to sustain late and alleviate the sufferings id Ih
patient;
but so rapidly did the venom ex•end
throughout the entire system, that in sixty-five min
