TIIK NOVEMBER ELECTIONS.
Elections, were held oil Tuesday, Novem
ber Oth, in twelve States. In ten of them
the Republican banner waves iu triumph ;
in the other two, Maryland and Delaware,
we grieve to say, the tide o! returning reb
els and Andrew Johnson's treason to the
Loyal men of the South aud the Republican
party, are doing the work which armed
traitors failed to do in the field of battle.—
But, save in these two States, the Republi
can triumph has been as complete as it was
in 18G4, when Lincoln and Johnson,
and the present Congress, were elect
ed. Congress has been sustained as
representing the people in its reconstruct
ing the rebel States, and the people, there
fore, condemn Andrew Johnson's recon
struction Policy as emphatically as Con
gress is sustained.
The following is the result in the severaj
States, and it will be varied very little by
the official returns :
MASSACHUSETTS. —Gov. Bullock is re-elect
ed by 65,000 majority and a solid delega
tion of 10 Republicans to Congress, and all
the Republican State and county officers.
NEW YORK. —Gov. Feuton is re-elected by
about 15,000 majority, aud the rest of the
State ticket by the same majorities. There
are 20 Republican members of Cougress to
11 Democrats. Both branches of the Leg"
islature secure a Republican U. S. Senator.
NEW JERSEY. —Tne only northern State
that that voted for McOlellan in 1804 has
grandly wheeled into the Republican line,
and elected 3 Republicans to 2 Democrats
to Congress, a gain of one. Both branches
of the Legislature are Republican —the Sen
ate 13 to 8, the House 38 to 27, securing
the election of a republican U. S. Senator
iu the place of Wright, Deiu., just deceas
ed. This gives New Jersey two Republi
can Senators in the U. S. Seuate.
ILLINOIS. —The Republican majority iu
the State is about 45,000, electing 11 Re
publicans to 2 Democrats to Congress at
the head of which stands that Democratic
"War Horse" Gen. Johu A. Logan. A Re
publican Legislature secures the re-election
to t'ue U. S. Senate of Senator Trumbull.
MICHIGAN. —Re-elected the present Repub
lican Governor by 30,000 majority,a united
Republican delegation of 0 to Congress,
and left scarcely a "specimen brick" of
Democracy iu the State Legislature.
WlSCONSlN. —Republican by 30,000 ; 5
Republicans and 1 Democrat to Cougress,
and Legislature overwhelmingly Republi
can—securing the re-election of Senator
Howe or some other radical.
MISSOURI. —This re-generated and purified
State of the great valley, west of the Mis
sissippi has covered herself with imperish
able radical glory, and g me by 20,000 ma
jority tor Congress, against the President
and the Blairs and their new allies, the reb
els • Radicals to 2 Conservatives to Con
,-r >ss are elected,and a Legislature secures
the election of a Radical to the U. States
Senate iu place of B. Gratz Brown, who de
clines a re-election.
KANSAS. —Kansas, glorious Kansas, that
was ushered into existence amid scenes of
carnage and blood, has again come out
with the Radical flag victorious, electiug a
Radical Governor and member of Congress
by 15,000 majority, and a radical Legisla
ture which will secure two radical U. S.
Senators.
NEVADA. —The youngest State of this
Union has gone Radical by 1000 muj >rity,
electiug a radical Gov. aud member of Cou
gress and a radical L 'gislature. s "lriug a
radical U. S. Senator in the place of Gen.
Nye.
MINNESOTA. —RadicaI by 10,000 majority,
electing both radical Congressmen and a
line State Legislature.
MARYLAND. —Has elected four Democrats
to Congress, and one radical, aud a Deaio
oerutic Legislature, securing a Democratic
U.S. Senator in the place of Cresswol! .Rad
ical.
DELAWARE.- -Elects a Copperhead Gov.,
member ol Congress aud a Legislature of
11' same kind Tins is as it was before.
These are toe glorious records for No
vember for the Cause of Liberty, Loyalty
and Law Tuose of October were equally
good, and with these secured t<> Freedom
ovcry T. val Northern free State during the
remainder of Andrew Johnson's term.again
st his usurpation and "policy" of restoring
toe government into the hands oi traitors
and disloyal nun.
THE PACIFIC RAILROAD. —The great efforts
made by the national Congress and by the
pc ple to secure the early construction of
the Pacific Railroad are beginning to pro
duce visible results ; and although we
cannot as yet discern the time when the
consumation shall be reached, yet the pro
gressive steps taken in the work reflect
the highest credit upon the republie, and
the enterprise and capacity of its people.
No work of this age at all approaehiug
ti.is one in magnitude has ever been actu
ally undertaken, and the completion of it
will undoubtedly stamp this republic as
fa'dy up to the highest mark of all its great
pretensions. The manner iu which the Pa
cific section of the road is progressing af
fords satisfaet ry evidence that the Sierra
Nevada will be passed by the iron horse
fr m San Francisco before our eastern
trains can reach the passes of the Rocky
Mountains. A prodigious multitude of
Chinese coolies are at work building the
road Sacramento to the summit, and
although the elevation to be surmounted
is gigantic, thedistauee is short. It seems •
therefore probable that the first fact that
will make any real impression upon the
w. rid in regard to the progress of the Pa
cific Railroad is, that the railway trains
are running regularly from San Francisco
through the passes of the Sierra Nevada,
over the Washoe Valley to Virginia City.
CONGRESS. —The present Senate stands 38 i
Radicals and 13 Democrats and Conserva
tives, The next is likely to have 41 Radi
cals and 10 Democrats. The new Senators,
thus far, are the Hon. Cornelius Colo of
California, the Hons. J. S. Fowler and Da
vid T. Patterson of Tennessee (who have
takeu their seats), "A. G. Cattell of New-
Jersey, (present Congress) and H. W. Cor
bett of Oregon. Only one of these, Sena
tor Patterson, the President's son-in-law, is
a Democrat. The complexion will be fur
ther changed by the election of a Demo
cratic Senator iu Maryland (probably Gov. .
Swanu) to till the place of. the Hon. A. J. i
Cresswell, Radical, whose term expires j
next year ; and in Pennsylvania aud New- j
Jersey by the choice of Radicals in place j
of the Hons. Edgar Cowan and William '
Wright, Democrats, the latter deceased.
John Evans and Jerome B. Chaffee are the
Senators chosen from the proposed now
State of Colorado, and Thomas W. Tipton
and Gen. John U. Thayer those chosen
from that of Nebraska. These four terri
torial Senators are Radicals. Should they
be admitted iu the next Congress, the Radi
cal strength will be 45 members.
EXPEDITION EXTRAORDINARY TO MEXICO.—
The Washington Republican of Thursday
says : With the authority of the govern
ment we take great pleasure in announc
ing that lion. Lewis D. Campbell, Envoy
Extraordinary and Minister Plenipoten
tiary to the Republic of Mexico, accom
panied by E. L. Plumb, Esq., Secretary of
Legation, General Win. T.
Sherman and his Chief of Stall', will posi
tively leave the port of New York to-mor
row, on board of the U. S. sb-aiu frigate I
Susquehanna. This war ship will be com
manded by C'apt. Alfred Taylbr, a distin
guished officer of the navy.
Our Minister to the Mexican republic
will therefore be flanked by renowned ofii
cers of the American army and navy. The
Susquehanna will proceed, without delay,
to a point designuated in Mr. Campbell's
instructions, and will there meet the rep
resentatives designated for that purpose by
the President of the Mexican republic.
The probability now is that this extraor
dinary diplomatic, military aud naval com
mission of this government will be joiued
by the I nited States Gulf fleet, and a dem
onstration will be made iu assertion of the
American doctrine, known as Monroe's,
that prove highly satisfactory to the Am
erican people, and show the nations of the
earth that, notwithstanding all their efforts
to prove to the contrary, we really have a
government.
THE NATIONAL DEBT. —The November
statement of the national debt shows a de
crease since the October statement of £22,
020,730 34 in the amount of debt, loss e< in
iu the Treasury, and of $19,8>0,732 93 in
the actual aggregate of the debt, which is
$2,081,906 34. The amount of coin in the
Treasury has reach J the enormous total
of $99,413,01> 55, being an increase ot $12,-
153,109 20 since the last statement. The
temporary loan has finally disappeared from
the statement. the account having been
paid "9' aud closed. An effort Las been made
to reduce the compound interest notes, and
has brought down the aggregate 1,000,000.
Steady progress has been made iu the
convereion of seven thirties into five-twen*
ties, to the extent of $19,981,750. There is
an increase of $1,000,000 in the six per
cent, currency bonds. In the cancelling of
greenbacks, the Department has got rid o 1
$>,978.307, and an increa-e 'of more than
half a milli >n iu fractional currency.
©as" The rebels of Trimble County, Ky.,
continue their outrages against Miss Delia
Webster. A week or two ago tliev d s
. troyed a Urge amount of her provisions
and household goods. On Tuarsday uight
their malice culminated in setting fire to
her barn ami other outbuildings, as well as
several piles ol seasoned lumber, which
, she had got ready for some school build
ings. Her loss amounts to s>,ooo, only
J S3OO oi which is covered by insurance.
' Lie Madison Courier says that Miss
W EBSTER has ha d seventeen dwelling
! houses and four barns destroyed fr in time
I to time by her secession neighbors, her
! only offence being her determination to
j teach colored children to rca i and write.
OUR DEAD SOLDIERS —The resting-places
; of the Union soldiers, who died during t'ue
rebellion, are to be marked hereafter with
: east-iron head blocks instead ol the woud
-1 en ones, as at present iu the various na
tional cemeteries. The nuuib r, etc., of
i each Soulier is to be cast in raised Liters.
The Quartermaster-Geueral has accoiJing
ly invited PROPOSALS for furnishing the cast
iron head blocks. About two hundred and
eighty thousand of them are required.
CONGRESS. —A W ashing ton correspondent
says the general preparations made prior
to the meeting of Congress are going on.
Boarding housekeepers and others are ex
pecting a neh harvest this year, thinking
that the anticipated impeachment of the
President will have a tendency to gather ,
in \\ ashing ton a large number of people, j
and/looking to that end. have increased I
their prices to a much higher rate than for- 1
merly charged by them.
Ssg* The Sugreme Court of Indiana has
decided that the article in the Constitution
prohibiting negroes fr >m entering the State
is null anu void, aud thus redeems Indiana
from a foul disgrace. The next step wiil j
be to strike the barbarism from the Con-1
stitntion, an act to which the Legislature!
is bound by the decision of the Court that,
the article is in conflict with the Constitu
tion of the United states.
I®. A Harrisburg correspondent of the
Cincinnati GazeUe asserts that MR Thad
deus Stevens wiil not be a candidate for
the I nited States "vnate.i ut will probable
give his influence towards Gen. Cameron.
THAH KSQIVING PROCLAMATION.

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Andrew
G. Curtin, Governor of the said cominon
t wealth.
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, It hath been the good and

their will, deeds of good justice, wisdom
and mercy may be done.
