The Popular Vote. t,i From present in tuft ons Mr. Buchanan will receive nearly, a majority of the Whole popular vote of the country, which, with three prominent candidates in the field, is a great triumph. In 1848, Gen, Taylor' lacked 152,931 of a clear majority, over both of his competitors, exclusive of the vote of South Carolina, We think, that Mr. Beehauan's minority cannot be so great as that. On the other hand, Fre. mont, if the votes for the ruiion Ticket hoad• ed by his name in Pennsylvania only are in—a 7 'minority as against the united 'vote ~ot 'Buchanan and Fillmore, even in the nowelace-holding States, Indeed his votes in these will not much ex ceed that cast for Mr. Buchanan, and as he receives no votes in slave-holding States, ho is in a minority iu the Union of from 750,000 to 1,000,000 votes. Fremont has a clear major ity only in New England, and probably Mich igan, - Wisconsin and lowa. In New 'York and Pennsylvania, each, he is in A- minority of 100,000 votes. Re carries Ohio by a mi• nority vote, and .Illinois, we_presurne, if car ried by him at all, ie carried in the same man ner, On the contrary every State carried by Mr. Buchanan he carries by a majority over All his competitors, except, perhaps, New .Ter. key, but we think he has also a clear nis.jorit) , there.

S. where he could l'ound that there might be no unnecessary delay. On the 30th October,, in compliance with this peremptory request of Mayor llinks, Gon. Stewart issued his orders to the military cony ,panics under his command, to assemble at their respective armories, in marching order, on the morning. the election at 8 o'clock, and to remain there for further orders from the ofdeers Of their respcetive regiments. On the 31st, Gen. Stewart informs Mayor !links of -what -had been-do no,- and _ inferms.l i tliat had made the City Hail his headquarters, in _order _that his,,pfficers ,m-ightt be near_ the ,May or himself. This led to an interview, during which Mayor Minks informs Gen.' S. that he regrets that the order had been issued for the military companies to turn out, and that it was more than he (the Mayor) intended in his note of Oct. 29th, , To this Gen. Stewart re plies that he regrets that there should have been any misunderstanding, and assures him that if it is his wish the order to the military companies shall ho countermanded, and again assures him that - the military will obey the civil authority. Mayor Minks replies on the same day; attempts to explain what ho meant in his letter of October 29th—tliat it was that the officers and men should "hold themselves in readiness to march"--that is, to he in read iness when the order came "having no other engagements," ••Willing to come when summoned." This is the sense in which he *desired to :be undorstOud by the term "readi ness." lie had no idea that they were to be in readiness to march at a moment's warning. He meant nothing more than that they, should be in readiness to receive an or der when it came to turn out—we suppose, some time during the day. That would bo quite soon enough, it would to seem suit the purposes of the Know Nothing Executive of the city of Baltimore. This Mayor Hinks evi dently concluded that his intolerant and anti- Amortcan party, would only be successful by allowing lawlessness _and outrage to go on unchecked and undisturbed. Gen. Stewart countermanded his order, and issued another, that the military should not assemble auy wh ere, but ho prepared to receive a call fiom the Mayor, whenever he mighochoose topsue One. tinder these circumstances, the Governor of the State deemed it his duty to• interfere, in order to preserve the peace and protect the citizens at their right to vote, and accordingly 1 1 . , '• , tr,^rc !he ME IMII the eJectiOn.

Ile should shrink from no responsi bility in thedischarge of his official obliva tions. lie betieved that the serti•ice of the military should be required, and considered that it was best to demand their serviess. For some unaccountable reason the military more not called out, s►nds series of disgraceful riots and bloodshed occurred which will he a monu ment of infamy to those in power to the latest generation. The miserable tool of adisgrace ful faction, and his pollee, were not properly upon duty anywhere during the day. The rights and lives of the citizens were,left to the mad fury of a fanaticism which has no head !Ind cannot think, no heart and cannot feel. Violence was the order of the day.
