Comments on the State Electiou.
f From Forney's Press.] ' |
The returns of yesterday's election indicate
the election of C I. ANDREW GRECG CUITIN, j
us Governor of Pennsylvania, by an nop re- :
cedented majority. Mr. FOSTERS silence has
assisted him, it would seem, with no section of <
the Democratic party. The vote has been
Unusually large, and the defeat singularly sig
iiifietut. The returns speak in bolder and 1
stronger Saxon than we can write.
There can now happily be uo more balking
of the great question involved in the Presi
dential struggle. The reasons iu favor of a
combination against ABRAHAM LINCOLN, how
ever they may have operated prior to the elec
tion decided yesterday, and however ihey may j
operate iu advance of that which is to be de
cided on the first Tuesday of November com
ing, <:aunet be effective token men come to choose
letwwii candidates, each of tchom represents a I
principle antagonistic to the other.
Now,we take it there can be no more union
between BRECKINRIDGE and DOUGLAS than be
tween two naturally repulsive forces. Each
represents a distinctive platform. No advo
cate of Mr. DOIGLAS believes, or affects to
believe, in the doctrine upon which Major
BRECKINRIDGE stands, aud no advocate of
Ma jor BRECKINRIDGE believes, or effects to be
lice, in the doctrine upon which Mr. Docu-
I.A;- stands. The Southern friends of BRECK
INRIDGE, more frank tbau the most of the
friends ef P >VGLAS, declare as a general thing,
that under no circumstances will they ever
accept either the candidate or the creed npon
Which the regular Democracy stand. In the
language of Senator BENJAMIN, of Louisiana,in
his last great speech, they would not accept
victory if their platform was to be construed
in one way in the North, and another way in
the South. They believe that the institution
of slavery is carried bv the Cu:;-titurionof the
of the United States into the Territories or
the Union, and that it must be protected there
against the popular will and rather than yield
this principle, or submit to the election of a
Northern man fo the Presidency of the Unit
ed States, like AERATUM LINCOLN, the most of
them would be willing to justify a preparation
for secession from the Union. They have made
the iasue. Standing upon this idea, they have ;
60 consolidated the Southern people around
their candidate, Mr. BRKCKINKIUCB, that we
shall not be surprised, since Colonel CURTIN'S
election, to see a very large majority of the
Southern people decide in favor of that can
didate. They are sensible of this great adaan
tu;ie : and while.iu the Southern States they
reject with disdain all coalitions with -Mr.
BELL, whom they regard as a traitor to South
ern institutions, -and trample upon Mr. DOUG
LAS as an enemy equally hostile to them with
Mr. SEW ARD himself.they are,with condescend
ing sagacity, particularly willing to unite with
the friends of BFI.L and DOUGLAS in the free
States to carry electors. against LINCOLN,
because they knew that iu such a combination
thty will be übie to gain some-thing, which
will be added to the controlling aggregate of
their triumphant ci etoial vote in the South, i
EVE BY FUSION IN THE FREE
STATES, THEREFR'GBE. IS INTENDED
TO PROMOTE THE ELECTION OF
JOHN C. BR EC KIN Illixi E TO THE
PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED
STATES.
Ihe friends of Mr. DOUGLAS, rather thau
tee themselves used as instruments in favor of
extreme Southern Df- riioni-in, will now leave
the resjonsib;jity o"' the coming remit to those
who, while protesting that the election of
A; DAUAU LINCOLN must lead to the dissolution
of the Union, stubbornly refused to sustain
and support the only candidate before the
American people who could have prevented
the electiou of Mr. I.IN ULN.
I From the ILtrrisburg Patriot aad 'J uioa—Breekinridge.J
We believe that thegreitmwof the friends
of Mr. D mghis supported Fo-rrn in good
faith ; but it is clear that many of the Forney
stripe, impressed with the idea that the elec
tion of FOSTER conld bo of no possible advan
tage to Mr. Douglas, stabbed him quietly and
secretly. This treachery was more extensive
than was anticipated,end is no doubt.as morti
fying to the true fi eud- of Douglas as it is to
aii enemies of the Republican party.
Passing from cause to effect, we say frankly
that the election of ANIKLW G. CFRTIX makes
the defeat of ABRAHAM LINCOLN hopeless. It
is useless to uiteuipt to keep up appearance by
affecting a hope that we do not feel. If the
Democratic and conservative vote of Pennsyl
vania when generally unit d, could not carry
FOSTER, it cannot defeat Lincoln when divided
among three candidates. Had FOSTER been
elccted.it is probable that a union might have
been formed that would have carried the
State in November—but Eicce the field has
been lost aud won, nothing renains for the
Democratic and conservative voters of the
State, out to test the relative strength of their
several candidates, and to utter through the
ballot box tbeir protest against the election of
a sectional Presideut, by a minority of the
people of the United States.
Tlow this may best be done, is a matter for
further con silferation. We have stuck tcfthe'
cause of union as long as it appeared possible
that the union might be effectual in defeating
tbe election of Lincoln. But since that seems
to be a foregone conclusion, it is a matter of
little cousequence whether the frieuds of
Breckinridge support a d.stiuc'.ive Breckinridge
ticket or a anion ticket, oulv so they are en
abled to. express their preference for Mr.
Breckinridge.
SNCTPE OF AN 0:O MAN. —On Monday
afternoon,tbe 24th nit., Mr. STEPHEN JAPRFT,
an old man abont 00 years of age, committed
snicide in the town of Lisle some fonr miles
west of tht3 village, by hanging himself to the
limb of a tree. He. left the residence of his
grand son in the afternoon, aud about six o'-
clock. r. M bis lifeless remains were found sus
pended to a tree in the woods The rope was
adjusted so near the ground that he was oblig
ed to place bis feet forward of his body iu
order to accomplish his design. It is said by
some, that be had clenched the roots of the
tree to keep himself dowu, but whether this
was the case,or the natural effect of the spasms
of death, is not known. lie had been labor
ing under a depressed state of mind for some
time past, aud had several times threatened to
commit the rash deed. The cause is attribut

BHALL BRADFORD DO BETTER?
The official majority for CURTIN in Bradford
is 4336 This is not a majority to be asham
ed of, but it can be largely increased. The
Republican vote was not all polled at the late
election, while local causes operated against
us. But Old Abe has a clear track, and we
ought to give him 5,000 majority in Bradford,
over the combined vote of all opposition.
Republicans ! we must not sit down and
consider the victory gained. The decisive bat
tle is yet to be fought, and victory is ready to
perch upon our bauuer, if we are only true
to ourselves. You must relax uo t fforts, but
put forth the most vigorous exertions. One
more charge upon the shattered ranks of our
oppoueuts, and the victory is ours ! It is uot
enough that Bradford lias done well - f she
must do better. We have not finished our la
bor until we reach a majority of 5,000. —
There is uo electioa district where the vote
cannot be increased—and we hear of seveial
towns which did not poll near the full vote. —
But little lime now remains to make prepara
tions, and it should be improved. You now
know how all the voters stand, who are true,
who are doubtful, who against you, and who
: likely to be negligent or absent. The great
work to be accomplished is to seeore the at
tendance of every voter. School district com
mittees, with teams at their service, do the
business. Ua7c both in readiuess and we
shall announce 5,000 majority in Bradford for
the Rail Splitter.

FUSION DECLINED.— Tbe Democratic State'
Committee of which W. 11. WELSH is chair- j
man, met at Reading, recently, and reconsid
ered its former resolutions, deciding to stick
to the Reading electoral ticket, as first formed.
It was expected by the BEI.L men, previous to
the State election, that room would be made
upon the ticket for a certain number of Bell
everetts, but they are now not worth purchas
ing.
The Douglas committee have also been in
session. Their action has not transpired, but j
it is certaiu a straight ticket will be adhered i
to. There is no disposition with either branch
to fuse, and a bitter warfare is already com
! menced We shall be pleased to look on and
i see fair play.
Stgr The Democratic journals of Philadel
phia assert that the return of Butler (Repub
lican) instead of Lehman (Douglas Democrat)
from the Ist District of Pennsylvania, was
caused by a falsification of the return from one
of the Wards of that City. Although the !
i person accused of this alleged fraud is Dot, we
believe, a Republican, but a Breckinridge man
j we trust the facts will be promptly established;
! the wrong, if wrong there be, redressed, and
the guilty puuisbed. We greatly desired, and
and would rejoice over, Mr. Butler's election,
but if he is to owe his return to fraud, we feel
sure that he will not consent to hold the seat,
eveu for a day. Let the facts be ascertained
and authenticated, and Mr. Butler will, in all
things, conform his course to them.

POLITICS IN BALTIMORE. —The late Reform
triumph in Baltimore is likely to work a revo
lution in the political condition and prospects
of the State of Maryland. The Republicans
held a mass meeting in Baltimore, Friday
uigbt, which was atteoded by one thousand
persons, and which was marked by a wonder
ful degree of enthusiasm—several speeches
being made, and no indication of any desire to
interfere with the proceedings beiDg exhibited.
On the contrary, many dissatisfied Americans
• and Union men united with them, including
members of American Clabs and Bell and
Everett Minute Men, chagrined at the result
of the late election, and impelled by a spirit of
retaliation against members of their own organ
izations, who voted with the Reformers. It is
thought that the accessions to the Republican
ranks may be so numerous as to imperil the
chances of Bell and Everett in (he State, and
|to improve those of Breckinridge materially. I
' ASSESSMENTS TOR THE PRESIDENTIAL ELEC
TION.
j If not generally understood that the law
i fixing the time of holding the Presidential
election provides also for assessments withiu
ten days of the day of the election. Any person
who has failed to be assessed heretofore, can
upon application to the veto assessor, have his
name entered upon the list of taxable inhabi
tants and be entitled to vote at the Presiden
tial election, provided it is done by Saturday
the 27th inst. If our Republican friends in any
district have lost votes by neglect to assess,
they should see that it is done previous to that
date.
THE ELECTION.
The result of the election in Pennsylvania
has been overwhelming. The precise majori
ty is not ascertained, but it will be over 30,-
000 We shall probably be able to give the
official table next week.
The Congressional delegation will stand 21
Republicans to 4 Democrats. We lose Jc.v
KIX in the Perry district, and STEWART, io the
Fayette district, by small majorities.
THE LEGISLATURE. —The Republicans gain
one number of the House in Westmoreland,
one in Huntingdon, oue in Miftiiu,one in Cum
berland, one in the Clearfield district (where
Gordon and Lawreuee are elected,) one in
Clarion, two in Clinton and Lycoming, oue in
Schuylkill and probably stwo in Luzerne —in
all eleven ; and they lose, probably, one in
Lehigh, one in Bucks and two in Philadelphia
net gain seven. This will make the House
stand 73 It. to 27 D.
In the Senate the disproportion will be still
greater. The hold-over Seuators stood,at the
close of the last session, 17 to 5 ; Mr. Xunem
acher, D., of Berks, died soon after. Iliester
Clymer, D., is elected in his place, and Henry
S. Mott, I)., is elected iu the Tenth Legion in
place of Craig, D.. and he is, the only
Democrat elected. Franklin Bound, R., is
elected over Keller, D , in the Xorthumber
land district, making onr gains six, viz:
Nichols in place of Marseiis ; Serriil in place
of Bcil ; Wharton in place of Schell ; Fuller
iu place of Turuey ; and Lawrence in place of
Miller. The Senate will thus staod 27 to 6 ;
on joint bullot, 100 to 33.
INDIANA —There are 100 counties in Indiana
of which 76 have been heard from, giving
Gen. Lane (Ilepub.) tor Governor 14,224
majority. His gain on the last vote for Gov
ernor (1856 is 17,353. As Gov. W.Ward's
majority in the State was 5,872. Lane is
elected by 11.480 if tlie 26 remaining counties
show no gain on the last Governor-vote. But
they have gained, of course, so that Gen.
Lane's majority must be very near 15,000, and
may exceed that number.
The Legislature is strongly Republican
ensuring the election of a U. S. Senator ot the
right strine The Congressional delegation
stands 7 Republican to 4 Democrats.
OHlO. —This state has gone Republican by
nearly 25,000 majority. The Members of
Congress stand 13 Lincoln to 8 Douglas.—
. The Legislature largely Republican.
ANOTHER STEAMSHIP DISASTER, —The steam
i ship Connaughl, Capt. LKITCII, of the Galway
Line, whose arrival at St. Jolt us, N. F.,
one wet k ago, was announced on Thursday,
j sprung a leak on Saturday ; and on Sunday
morning when 140 miles from BJSIOU, for
which port she was bound,she was found to be
on sre. The flames spread so rapidly that it
was found ioippossible to control them,and the
passengers—so cabin and 417 steerage,besides
a crew of 124 —were driven on deck. Seven
boats were launched, one of which was stove,
j there being a heavy sea running at the time,
j The other six were filled with passengers
About noon the brig Minnie Shiffcr, Capt.
JOHN WILSON, discovered the steamer's signal
'of distress, aud immediately bore down, went
, alongside and commenced taking off the
passengers. All were finally saved, after the
' most strenuous exertions, Capt. LEITCH being
the last to leave the turning wreck,whicu soon
after was enveloped in the flames.
„ •
The Southern journals print details of
j the recent storm in the Gulf. It extended
j over Louisiana and Mississippi, and was very
destructive in its progress. For duration and
force of wind it ha been scarcely equalled.—
For many years such a large and deplorable
loss of buildings, machinery, and growing crops
has not been experienced in the Southwest.—
In the sugar districts, where the planters were
about to commence the work of sugar making
the damage has been very great. Hundreds
of planters will have to make extensive aud
costly repairs before they can crush a cane or
light a fire. The prospect of the sugar crop
is very gloomy. In the cotton districts of
Mississippi the damage is serious, and many
fields of cotton have been detonated and stain
ed with dirt. Ou the Mississippi river there
was a gale which damaged several of the river
steamers, aDd led to a loss of life. It is
thought that the storm swept over the Gulf,
raging very violently in the track of the Vera"
Cruz shipping. Fears are entertained that
there has been damage to vessels, as several
of theua are overdue with important mails,
specie, and merchandise.
Waf The Republican National Executive
Committee have issued an appeal to the mem
bers of the Republican organization. The
committee compliments those States who hare
gone for the Republican party, and earnestly
; urges npon the members the duty of electing a
Republican House of Representatives to aid
Mr. Lincoln, if elected, io administering the
! affairs of Congress.

AGRICULTURAL PAIR —The Seventh Annual
| Exhibition of the Brudford County Agricultural Society
| took place upon the grounds of the Society, on Thursday
' and Friday of lut week. We are pleased to announce
that it was a decided success—far in advance of any pre
| vious exhibition, both as to the number and quality of
entries, and the number of persons in attend mse.
i A drench ug rain on Thursday afternoon, threatened
\ to prove disastrous, but towards evening, the sky cloar
i eJ up. and the sun rose Friday upon a-> lovely a day as
i- ever experienced. The attendance Friday was very
; large, more people being upou the grounds than had ever
[ before visited an exhibition, while the dUpUy of cattle, '
. horses aud mechanical implements, fruits, vegetables,
A was pronounced excellent.
Tne ad Iress was delivered at 2 P. M . by Col. V. E.
PIOLLHT, and was full of valuable practical suggestions.!
j derived from the experience of the speaker.
The list of premiums will probably appear in our text
THE Fi.TSR SNOW erf the SSCM ft !! ON Sun- :
i day nigiit, covering the ground to the depth ot two or
three iucbes, and presenting the appearance of winter,
while an " eager aud nipping air." came down from the
North, as it it had encountered ice bergs on its way.
SUPREME COURT —The case of Tnghim vs.
Barclay Railroad, which went up to (he Supreme Court
from this County was lately decided, by a reversal, and
a new tiial granted, npon what grounds we did not learn, j
GRAND CONCERT. —The celebrated Scottish
1 vocalist. Mrs. LINDSAY (late Miss gurv a Con- I
1 cert at the Court House, on Tuesday evening, assisted by ;
I Mr- J. BOY FKAZEH, tenor, and by Mrs. ELIASON, of El |
rnira. who presided at the Piano. The®attendance was !
quite large, and the Concert a decided success. Mrs.;
LINDSAY has a voice of great sweetness, power and flexi
bility, and her performance shows the highest degree of
cultivation and training. In singing some of the sweet j
and simple scngs of her native land, she was inimitable, 1
and the audter.ee testified their appreciation in the most
| lively manner. Mr. Pikizetrs tenof is very Cue and Mrs.
ELIASOS'S grace at the piano, with her tine performance,
gave great satisfaction.
—We are pleased to learn that at the urgent request
of many of our citizens, Mrs. LINDSAY has consented to
visit this place on Tuesday evening, 23d inst, when tbote
who were unfortunate enough not to be pressent on the
occasion spoken of wil! have an opportunity to hear her.
[From the Philadelphia North American.]
The returns from Indiana and Ohio justify
us in expressing our thanks to Mr Douglas
for his efficient service in this campaign Wher
ever he spoke in Vermont and Maine the Re
publican majorities increased. Without his
assistance in Pennsylvania we should probably I
have fallen several thousand behiud our present
triumph. And now on the heels ofthisethe
western states come booming along with results
which are almost astounding' Indiana is re
deemed on the popular vote, in Congress and
in the legislature,mostly owing to the speeches
which Mr. Douglas made against us only a
week ago. He has gone to lowa and Wiscon
sin, and will probably contribute to like suc
cesses in those states. If we eould send a few
mere such missionaries abroad there would be
no use in organizing a campaign. Our ailies
would unconsciously do ail the work them*
; selves. Mr. Douglas has been much mistiiied
as to " popular sovereignty " of late, but if he
would take the pains to study the election re
turns now coming in, he will be apt to get an
illustration of it worth reraemberiug.

SECTIONAL CANDIDATES. —The election in
Florida resulted in the success of the Breckin
ridge candidates : those of the Bell party stand
next 00 the list ; but at the last advices the
votes for Douglas had not been counted. It is
supposed that he will receive nearly as manv as
Lincoln, whose forces were not organized in
that state At the November election Lincoln
will probably come nearer to success than his
Illinois competitor. The people down there [
will find out before that time that if the Ke- 1
publican chief is a " sectional candidate," bar
ing the entire North iu his favor, he is more
i available than the chief of the sqnatter-sover
eignty, who has only a few of the first settlers
of the territories on his side. Douglas is
emphatically Dot sectional, because there is no
section, under the present appearance®, from
which he will receive a solitary electoral vote
The East, North and West are for Lincoln ;
while the Middle and South will be divided
between Lincoln, Bell and Breckinridge
Douglas ought to take up his residence in one
of the territories and get naturalized
EXECUTION or WALKER —It is now a*crr
taiueJ, we believe, beyond a peradventure.that
Gen. Walker was executed on the 12ih inst.
The British war-steamer Gi'iduiler l brought
the news to New Orleans, together wilh the
rtmiiuotol Walker's "a: my.'' Tvu shots, it is
staled, were liud at him, amid the cheers of
the natives, ant 1 he was afleiwards buried by
foreigners. Col. iludler lias escaped with a
scute nee of four years iniprieoniuent.
t-sT" Baron Renfrew—or us we mar ns well
say, the Prii.ce ow Wales—left Philadelphia,
on Thursday. He arrived at Amtioy about
one o'clock, and was received by the New
York committee of recop ion, General S.-ott,
and a few d stinguislud guests who w. re on
board the Harriet Lane. llis reception iu
New \oik was iu accordante with the pro
gratnme. He landed at Cattle G trd 0 at three
o'clock, suffered a sjieech fro u Major Wood,
J and an introduction to the municipal police!
At about three he emerged fn-iu Castle Gar
den, and, mounting,reviewed the troops iu his
co oriel's uniform. Ttere was au unmet se
' crowd on Broadway as the procession march
ed to the Fifth Avenue Hotel esorting the
Prince, who rode in an open barouche. The
| assembly i> >1 d to have been the largest evr I
seen In New York, aid was a gratifying n ii- §
cation of the good will felt by the masses to 3
the heir of England's throne.
O 1 Saturday,the Prince visited the establi-h-
; meuts of some of the New York t rul> smut, j
. aud looked in at Barium's Museum,c osing the fl
I labors of the day with a sight of the firemen's I
parade. Sunday he went to Trinity Church, i
anJ then betook himself to his private apart- 1
mcnts. Al 10 Monday he departed from the j
B ttery, in the Harriet Lane, for Albany, vis I
West Point.
