The election of Tuesday last, has
resulted in a glorious victory the
Republican party The .tbree great
states Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indi
ana,have spoken in thunder tones
the will of the people 411 tea& cer.7
tain the election of GRANT and cot,
FAx in Noveinber: After's contest;
in which the copperheads, driven to
desperation, have - exhausted all their
resources of fraud and falsehood,the
people triumph.
Ohio gives the Republican, State
Ticket over 30,090 majority. . Indi
ana is Republican by 10,000.
Pennsylvania was the battle field
of the Union. The most startling
fraUds were perpetrated here, by the
copperheads, and thousands of dol-
lars have been spent to elect their
ticket. We have telegrams from
Mr. GROW, chairman of the State
Committee and Mr. FonNEY of the
Press, which place the majority for
the Republican .State Ticket at film
12,000 to 15,000.
The Republican State Ticket has
a majority in Philadelphia city. The
Democrats claim the Mayor and
hree members of Congress.
In this County. the Most extraor
dinary exertions have been made to
defeat Judge DIERCUR, and by the
aid of imported voters, and the most
unscrupulous means, his majority in
Bradford will fall below his majority
in 1866. The following table has
been prepared as the returns reach
ed us, and will not vary much from
the official. The majority for Judge
M.E.BCIIR is 3500; the majority for
the State Ticket is probably about
3800.

This people, the Moors, whatever
may have been the fault of their re-
ligion, were, in reality, the laboring
force of the country,: the bone, sinew
and brain of Spain, the agricultu
rist, the artisan, the manufacturer,
the teacher, the whole hated race
were driven from their houses and
homes, to find them in another-conti
nent,—and all this; through the ty
ranny of religions intolerance.
A second cause of Spanish de'eline
is found in the religion of the coun
try. It has ever been a system of
bigotry and fraud. It early eitab
fished the' Inqeisition, that engine or
priestly tyranny and hate, than which
no 'open institution this side the
pit, has been so destructive to na
tional prosperity andprivate , good.—
The church has ever Idominated over
all other interests, and institutions,
in Spain. Even thq government has
ever been its tool, its puppet, and
crowned heads and ministers of state,
its iustruments - Ond playthings.
The property of the clergy, which

and spasmodic effort.to attain an en

were, in the habit , of., carrying•them

-
agitation between Messrs.,. Pierce arid
I .P,PineY (White), , and several ,prowl.
['neat colored leaders, it was agreed
I that the procession should not enter
the tpwn but ,the proposed meeting
1 should be held on the plantation of
Dr.., Dasher, a,sbort distance .(rom
Camilla. On arriving at Dr. Dash er's
house that gentleman refused to give
them permission to. hold the _ meeting
on, premis s es and advised them to
proceed at came to the court-house in
the town, which; being public prop
perty, they were . ! i ntitled ,to use for
that purpose. The procession then
started for the court-house. Before
entering the town,however,the blacks
.were advised to break up their organ
ization as, a procession and to strag
gle in squads, which they did. This
was done to allay any excitement
which might have been occasioned
by the \ appearanee iu the streets.of a
regularly_ organized , body of loyal
men. When the band wagon entered
the town, accompanied by Messre.
Pierce, Putney, and Murphy,the three
white men who intended to take part
in the meeting, it was discovered
that the citizens were drawn -up, in
regular battle , array, fully armed,
some being- mounted, and divided
into two squads,one posted on each
side of the Court house Square. , The
impression conveyed by this arrang
tuent was, that ? with the pre.cision of .
Military , experience, the citizens had
,prepared themselves ,to deliver ii
cross.fire into • the procession as, it
attempted to enter the courthouse.
As the band-wagon drove up the
man Johns fired his ,gun. . Thia was,
the 'signal for , instantaneous , dischar
ges of firearms from both sides. The
affidavits from both - parties- cdricur
thatnfter Jane had, fired the whites
and blacks discharged their .pieces
as if by one imptilse. Tlfl3 blacks
having fired once,had no ammunition
