THE ELECTIONS THIS TEAR, last year we had no Demooratio viotories to record ; end we had to endure repeated defeats with ail the equanimity we could. But our faith in the true and tried Democracy never wavered. It is the party of the people and of the constitu t on, and it cannot, must not fail. Occasional defeats do but purify it, and relieve its ranks from the unreliable and the false It rises stronger after every defeat, and rolls back the tide cf bsiile upon its enemies with resistless strength. And so it is doiDg this year. In Maine the S:ate election took place on Monday last, and behold the result. The Democrats have swept the State like a whirlwind. Both branches of the legislature are largely Democrats, aud will elect & Democratic Governor, Sen ate, House of Representatives, and a majority of the looal officers, all are Democratic !.! And the legislature, it is said, is strongly anti Main© law. Such is the judgment of the people of tha* cc-Me Stale. 1 a'epile cf tho coalition of K. N.'s, Whigs. Aboliii-'niais and Republicans, Maine ia redeemed, and i~ ouce more in the De mocratic ranks. And new !ct us sum op the result of elections thus far this year. Maine has given us a rous ing Democratic victory. Virginia gave a Demo oatic majority of teu thousand. North Carolina eleoied a Democratic Governor and legislature. Alabama gave a strong Democratic majority. Teuueyet’c elected a Democratic Governor aod legislMure ; auJ Texi« went “ all hollow ” for our b> avc ell party. I q some counties of Io *a, tint l*at year went again'*? ua by large majori ties, have come up Democratic again. In Illi nois ihere was but one State officer to elect —an Auditor—and the Democra'io candidate was elected by a decided majority. Suoh are tbo Democratio triamphs of this year thus far: and who can doubt that tbo Democrats will carry Pennsylvania and Ohio in October ? There can be scarce a doubt of it In the mind of any sensible man. Let our Democratic friends be of good cheer ; oar perty is tbo tramp again. Good omens cheer us from all quarters, and every week, and nearly every day we have to record a glorious viotory. It is cheering, too, to note tho earnestness with which Democrats torn out and labor for their oause. 80 large a vote was never before cast in M*ine as this year. Over ninety-two thousand voters were out; and that none staid at homo. Thus it ever our party. When all goes well, our voters £et careless and indif ferent, and we Buffer defeat. That rouses the Demooraoy again, and at the very next eleotion they rally and sweep all before them. But we have not yet told all our triumphs this year. Florida, South Carolina and Arkansas must be added to the list of States that have already pp.ken out for the Democracy. We shall within six weeks be called on to add sever al more States to the list ; and we have no doubt Pennsylvania and Ohio will be of the number. We can easily elect Arnold Plumer Canal Com missioner; and in Ohio, with tbreo parties in the field, the eleotion of a Democratio Governor is rendered almost certain. It would appear that tbo Democracy every where are aware of that high duty this year which Gen. Cass so eloquently urges In his late letter. We append tho concluding paragraph of that letter, and commend it to our readers. Hero it is: •* I have never known the timo when the Dem ocratic party was called upon by higher consid erations to adhere, faithfully and zealously, to thoir organization and their principles than they are at this day. Our confederation is passing through tho most severe trial that it has yet undergone. Unocasiog efforts are making to excite hostile and sectional feelings, against which we were prophetioally warned by the Father of hie Country, and if these are success ful, the days of this constitution are numbered. The contiuued assaults upon the South, upon its charaoter, its constitutional rights, and its institutions, auj the systemat:c perseverance and the bitter ep’.rit with which theso are pur sued, while they warn the democratic party of the danger, should also incite it to united and vigorous action. They warn it, too, that the time has come when all differences which may have divided it should givo away to the duty of defending the constitution, end when that great party, coeval with the government, should be united as one mau for the ncoomplUhmcnt of the work to winch it is now oallcd, and bofore it is too late. It is the American party, for it has neither sectional prejudices nor sectional preferences, and its care and its efforts extend wherever the constitution of the oouniry ex tends, with equal regard to the rights and in terests of ail. I believe the fate of this great republio is uow in its hands, and, so believing, 1 earnestly hope that its aotion will be firm, prompt, and united, yielding not one hair’s breadth of its lime-honored principles, and re sisting to the last tho d&ngeroas efforftrwith whioh we are menaced; and, if so, the victory of the constitution, I doubt not, will be achiev ed. " Ml&lne l Maine I ! Oh, have you heard the neWg from Maine, Good newt* and lj~ut l The very latest news from this gallant State, whioh for a while strayed from the path of rec titade, oonfirms the defeat of the Know-Nothing Maine Law Republicans. The Demoorats have a largo majority in both branches of the Legis lature, upon whioh will devolve the eleotion of not only a Governor, bat also a United States Senator. THE JOURNAL ANSWERED The Journal of this oity wants to know where we get|our authority for saying that Atchi son, Stringfellow, Whitfield & Co., who are la boring so desperately to establish slavery in Kansas, were Know-Nothings. We answer from the Bt. Lonis Democrat, and several other well informed sources. We ad[d below an oxtraot from the Democrat on that snhjoot. And now, Mr. Journal man, do you expect to esoape by saying that they were “ Southern Know Nothings ?” And when toe speak of a dif ference of opinion on the subject of slavery be tween Northern and Southern Democrats, do you not pretend to soont the idea? Do you oot oharge the whole Demooratio party with being pro slavery because its Southern wing is so ? How then does it beoome you to make a distiuc liflu between Northern and Southern K. N.’s ? Who will believe your report with suofi oontra diotioas everywhere apparent in your paper ? The fact la, there is a difference between Northern and Southern K. N.’s, and North ern and Southern Democrats. Neither of thoso parties in the North aro pro-slavery, and every sensible man admits it. There Mr. Journal, tot have stated the truth fairly. Can you have the magcanlmity to do the same just for onoo Or will yon persist in the base and scnsoleee false hood that the Democracy of the North arc pro slavery v But it is useloss to expeot fair deal ing from that quarter, 60 wo will ask no ques tions. But northern K. N.'s aro not wholly clear of tbe blame of Ibis Kansas fraud. It was they who taught tho K. N.’s of the Bouth how to ac complish the fraud by sooret machinery A tho same time northern Democrats have cause for some regret ii that matter. A northern man, lately a Democrat, is sent out to Bucoeed Reeder as Governor ; aud bo declares for slave ry in Kansas. He is undoubtedly a K. N. too, —a Know Nothing both naturally and politically. The President has been deceived in him. But here is the extract from the 8L Louis Democrat , of September 7th : “ It will be seen, from tho report of our Kan sas correspondent, that this individual (Whitfield) has received the n. Nothing pro slavery nomina tion for Congress in that territory. Tins is what we expected, both from tbe circumstances and the man. Formerly General Whitfield was a atroDg Benton democrat in Missouri, aud de nounced the nulliflera, with Atchison at their head, as budly os any. When the administra tion, however, undertook to ignore thederaoora tio parly of Missouri, and bolster up the oause of Atchison, Gcu. Whitfield at once deserted to what he thought the strong side. He was sub sequently elected dcVg&u- to Congress from Kansas ns a national democrat, und as such took his seat in the last Congress. “But suddenly a chango ooourred. Atchison aud his ooufreres had joined the Know Noth ings, and it became necessary for General Whit field either to go tho full length with them, or else go overboard. Wo do him the justice to say that be hesitated for sometime before he de termined ou tho latter step ; but tbe temptation was too stroDg for him, and he has finally left the aiministrition party and accepted a Know Nothing nomination. In this last movement, we have reason to know mat ho was apprised in advance that if he would remain true to his democratic position, be would receive tho sup port and nomination of the demooratio conven tion soon to assemble , but, after carefully bal ancing the chances, he has seen proper to pre fer the support of th.* Dark Lantern League. This it is well to expose at once, aud we take occasion to do so immediately upon the reoeipt of the news of his nomination, in order th it the democracy may know where to place him in the future. Thc-so who feel sufficient interest in this matter, can refer tu his speech given on our first page to Jay, and they will there find con firmation of all wo have said. He repudiates the democracy, and they will uot be slow to re pudiate him likewise.” It will be understood, of course, that the Democrat is not friendly to Gen. Pierce’s admin-' Letration, and its remarks io relation to that are thus accounted for. An Imperial 11 Dodge.’ Tiie Emperor of the French is as great on aa Vr Phineas T. Barnum. For in stance : Daring the stay of perfidious Albion’s Qaeen at Palis he accompanied her on a vigil to iho tomb of her “ prest ancestor,” James the Second—a gentleman who “ left ‘ ia country for his country’s good ” about tho year 1 GS3. While there His Imperial Majesty, '• either by accident or design” caught sight of a VoUigeur of the Imperial Guard, who had lost bis leg before Se bastopol and had otherwise been severely wound ed. Tbo still suffering soldier was making hie way forward on orutchcs when the Emperor ad vanced to meet him, and, takiffe off the Cross of the Legion of Honor which ho wore, transferred it to the poor fellow’s breast. ‘-All who wit nessed the occurrence," fays the aooount, deeply affected—and none more so thrn the per son dcoorated." Black Spirits and Whits.— The Liborty party Btate Convention of New York assembled in Utica on the 12th inst., on whioh occasion some twenty delegates, white and black, wero present. The following speckled tioket was put in nomination : Secretary of State— Fred. Douglass, (oolored.) of Monroe Comptroller —Lewis T&ppan, (white,) of Now York. State Treasurer— James C. Delong, (white,) of Oneida. Attorney General —J B. Vashon, (colored,) * f Cortland. Canal Commissioner—}\t. Smith, (white,) of Jefferson. State Prison Inspector —Geo. W Clark, (white.) of Monroe. Judges of the Court of JipptaU —B. Green, of Oneida, and Wm. Goodell, (white,) of Kings. Gerritt Smith presented a brief address, whioh was adopted. A series of resolutions were also passed. Mr. Vashon was formerly a resident of this city, and left, we believe, because of the preju dice against his oolor. If the Republican party triumph, he may return and expeot to have jus tloo done him. Should Passmore Williamson be elected Canal Commissioner, he will stand a good obance for the suooession. Let our colored friends look sharp. The Republican parly is bound to work out their salvation. Coen—Who can bBat it ? — We were presen ted yesterday by John U Phillips, Esq , of Rob inson township, Allegheny county, a clu-tcr of nine oars of corn, grown from a single blossom- The ears are from five to Bix inches long. The oentre ear around which the other eight oluster is of ordinary size, with eight rows of kernels of extraordinary size ; the remainder aro also well filled. Besides tho above mentioned, the B tock grew another ear of unusual tita. If any body can beat this let him oomo along. Our oorn orib is open to competitors. Upon counting the kernels of oorn that grew upon that stalk, and from a single seed, we find about a thousand kernels. Think of that : A thousand kernels from one. Hear Yopno Carroll, John Carroll, Esq., the great-grandson of Charles Carroll, of Car rollton, who is now running on the Democratic anti-Know Nothing ticket in Howard county, Maryland, mado his first Bpeeoh on Saturday Ust at a meeting of both parties After speak ing of the position of parties In the State and tho coontry, ho declared to the Know Nothings: ‘• I am a Catholio ; but if you must proscribe, do not commence npon so humble an individual as myself. Go back to the past, and erase from tho record of the Declaration of Indepen dence the name of my anoeetor, and the com panion of yonr forefathers, Charles Carroll, of Carrollton.” The Raeor Btbop Man —Smith, the'Raior Strop Man, is a spiritual medium. He reoently attended a pio-nio, where the spirits took posses sion of him and obliged him to perform ail kinds of antios, and play the buffoon to perfeofion. He says he couldn’t help doing it There are “ a few mors left of the same sort." The Democratic Rational Convention. As some of oar cotemporaries seem to be in doabt as to the manner in which the next Demo cratic National Convention is to be constituted, we publish the following resolutions of the last Democratic National Convention at Baltimore, for'general information: 11 Resolved, That the next Democratic Na tional Convention be held at Cincinnati, in the State of Ohio. “ Resolved, That in constituting future Na tional Conventions of the Democratic party, in order to secure the rospeotive rights of the States to their relativo representation in such conven tions, each Btate shall be entitled to twioe the nambar of delegates that It has votes in the electoral oollege, and no more; and that the Demooratio national oommittee, in making ar rangements for the next National Convention, provide suoh number of seats therein for each State, and seoure the samo to the delegates elect. “ Resolved, That the time of holding the next convention be designated by the Demooratio na tional oommittee; and that, in their oall, tho above resolutions be inserted as the rule for choosing delegates.” For the Pittsburgh Post] TWADDLE. Tho puny whistle of the Know Nothing gentry in this city, holds the following language : It is not true that the American Party holds the doctrine that a religious test for ofiioe should be established by either law or Constitution. They hold the doctrino that the aggressive polioy and the corrupting tendencies of the Homan Catholic Church ought to be resisted, and they will not vote for Roman Catholics, beoaose they are the enemies of political and religious liberty. Protostant oitizens do not trust them, because “ tboy hold no faith with heretios.” The Re public should not trust them, because they are entirely under the influence of their clergy, and thus they are bound by a Foreign allegiance. No religious test, none at all—only that Cath olics must not be permitted to hold offioe and shall not be voted for by tho party, whioh Impu dently asserts with the same breath that no re ligions teat is desired by tho Amerioan Party. For downright and upright coolness, we have not reoontly seen the above oxtraot exoeeded. We wish to see it preserved. Look on this Picture —At the battle of Tchernaya the Allies won another “famous vic tory " —the Russians losing nearly eight thou sand ’n killed and wounded, while thoir loss was scarcely haif that number. But to show at what an extravagant prioe this kind of glory is purchased by the belligerents, wo give tho fol lowing 01 0 6iug paragraph from a graphic de scription of tho battle : The Russian guns returned only for a moment uuder cover, and soon after you oould see a bril liant lino of cavalry debouohiog from the rising ground, whero it had been hitherto hidden. 1 oould dist:nguish five regiments—three in one line, and two other regiments on the flanks in the 6i-conl line. They advanood at a gallop, and wheeling round, allowed 12 guns to pass, which again openod their Are, but only for a short tim-, and at half-past d or 10 o’clock the dust on the Mackenzie road and the blaok lines moving off were the only traoes whioh remained of tho bo long threatened attack of the Rus sians Nothiug now remained but to visit tho field of battle, on whioh the Zouaves had alrea dy Jcsceu-.'.l 1; ko vulture**, and wero removing everything portable. Tho eoone which present cd itself on the tank of tho river, below the canal, was something fearful beyond description, much more tearful than tho ordinary horrors of a battle field Tho canal itself was ohoked with dead, most of whom doubtless bad fallen into it living, after rolling down the hill side, and found repose in its muddy waters ; broken muskets, bags of t read, cartridges, one dark stain on tho white gravel, often alone marked the spot where the men first fell On towards tho bridgo the dead lay thicker. On tho banka of the river t»buu: it, and iu the river itself, they were ‘heap ed and pde.l —mostly fine men, in the prime of life many with n eieitr grognard air, which be spoke long years of servioo. Nearly every one had a brandy bottle, cither actually in his bauds, or iying near him. or broken und;r him in his fall. Baltimobe as d Ohio Railroad —Tbe re ooipta cf this road, inclndcg the Washington Branch, is ->351.8J4.20 against $830,135.01 las 1 year This is about one fourth tbo inorease of tbe Peoasylvaola Central—tbe latter being bat little over 800 raiios in length, while the Balti more anJ Ohio including the Washington Branoh is considerably over 400 miles The falllog in of a large tunnel on tbe Ohio Central, one of tbe principal oouncotions of the Baltimore and Ohio road, will probably impair the receipts consid erably for a month or two to come. By this dia • aster freight is deiayeJ twenty four hours and passengers one fourth that time. Hkayt Damages —The Sandusky Commercia Rtgxiitr learns that in tbe oase of Barber va Mad River and Lake Erie Railroad—for dama ges sustained while in the employ of the Compa ny as oondnotor of a freight train—the jury re turned a verJiot of $'J.6OO for plaintiff. The trial came off in the District Court of Seneoa ooanty. Thr Nominations — To-day we are told the K. N.'s make their nominations in this county, and by Monday evening we shall probably know all about it. Wo shall then have all the parties in the field . and tbe battle is evidently going to b a warm one. Ws aro indebted to W. A. Qildenfenney & Co., Fifth street, opposite the Theatre, for a neat pamphlet containing “ The School Boy and other Stories by the Christmas Fire.” They are by Charles Dickens, whioh is a sufficient endorse ment of their merit. Four men, named Allison, Maples (two), and Campbell, have been arrested at Cleveland, oharged with burning the bridge of the Cleve land and Pittsburgh Railroad at Solinoville two weeks sinoe. Those men have beeQ the terror of the vicinity for a long time. The Atohison re-election is at length explain ed. It oooarred in a mook Legislature, consist ing of boys, such as is frequently got up by de bating societies. Pretty Steep — The New York Weekly Tribun t has raised its price for advertising to seventy- five oents per lino. Si’spknsb Amono U. 8 Naval Officers — lt has already been anoounoed that the President has signed the roport of tbe Board of Offloere, appointed under an act of the last Congress, to retire certain officers from servioo in the Navy. It is said there are. in all, about 700 officers, and those adjudged will be informed of their doom privately, and by mail. The reader may well imagine the anxiety of those gentleman as they reoeivo and open their letters from Washington. Tbe throe grades of decision are the “ Retire i,” tbo “ Farlougbed,” and the “ Dismissed.” The Retired” are adequately provided for, and re oeivo the samo salaries that they have been in the habit of receiving when not on daty ; a Cap tain, for example, $2600 a yoar. The “Furlough ed ” of the same grade will receive but twelve bondred and fifty dollars a year; and the “Dis missed ” nothing at all. Couldn't Remember.— A noted Hindoo ora tor of this village, was addressing Council, No. 202, a few evenings sinoe, and as usual, lashed himself into a terrible fury against William H. Seward. “Seward,” said ho, “is a scoundrel —a villain—a traitor—he’s in league with the Pope—he's no American—he's as treacherous as—as—as —(the speaker soratohedhis head,) as treacherous as — Gentlemen, what tn A— ll tcaj the feller's name who betrayed Christ ?” Medina Trtbune Effects of a Marriaqx — By the marriage, at Macolesfiold, Eagland, on July 15th, of -Mr. Or obin Oil nehaw, aged 68, to Misß Sarah Olleo shaw, aged 18, the bride became the wife of her own uncle, sister-in-law to her aunt, aant to her brothers and sisters, and step-mother to her ooaa,- ins; and by another marriage she beoame the mother-in-law to her own sister. A Short Cut to Metaphysios— According to Punch, is the following: “What is matter?” “Never mind.” “ What is mind ?” “No mat ter.” Prophetic —A severe winter prognosticated. The corn husks are remarkable thiok and heavy —a reliable sign. Whioh is It? — Some say that lager beer is a tonio—others, regarding its German origin, as sert that it U Teti' tonic. ;'J S : ' * W 1* V;. ■»! V‘ - • 1 f i ‘ * *”3*-** LetUr from Colonel Kinney on bis Recent We eopy from the Mobile Tribune tho follow ing letter from Col. Kinney to Capt. Maury, bis agent In that oity : * ' Ban Joan del Ncete Saturday, August 18, 1865. j M* Dear Maury: 1 have just complet.d the pnrohase of thirty millions of acres of tho most magnifioent country in the world—a country whioh, I venture to predict, will before many months teem with the enterprising and indus trious masses of the United States and Europe. Messrs. Shepherds & Holy bate disposed of their entire right, title and interost in the oelebrated “Mosquito Grant!” to me for $500,000, and I shall proooed nt onoe to Invite that emigration whioh is needed for the development of its un cqualed resources. There are three hundred miles of sea-board belonging to it, atid further book an elevated table land, healthy in climate and oapable of producing every staple of tho tropio or temperate zones. Bugar, ooffee, tobno oo, coobineal, aro prodaoed in abundance, in ad dition to the substantial supplies of ootton and grain required by the exigencies of r largo pop ulation. Muoh of tho land in tho interior 0.- teuds along tho banks of the San Juan River— the navigable highway of inter-oceanic com moroe, whenoe produce oan be shipped, without change of transportation, to any portion of the globe. 1 need not Bay anything of the mining re sources. The old Californians who have la ely been up there, say they are the best in tho world, and a largo accession is looked for from their Stato. The ooal of Boca del Toro, towards thi* southern boundary, whioh has boon opened cf late, is so situated, on account of tho deep water, that steamships of the largest class can come alongside and load up without further trouble. 1 hope, therefore, that you and your friends may be early upon tho ground, to sh-.re in the prospective advantages of this vast addition to the field of American enterprise. Excuse the haste with which this is written, and believe me truly your friend, On Friday afternoon, os a freight train was on its way from Boston to Albany, on the Western Railroad, when about a mile from Greecbash, one of the cars took fire. There being no water near, and the car beiog fided with merchandize, they hastened oa to Greenburh, (where the fUmes were extinguished, after having burned the en tire roof of the oar off; and so curiously bad thd fire burned around all tho oorners, that the sides fell out bodily, though, wi h the exception of the edges, they were scarcely scorched. Af ter unloading the freight, several cases marked “ Dry Goods,” were broken open, in order to prevent their contents being further damaged, and were found to bt filled (with tho exception cf jaat enough dry goods to prevent the kegs from rattling,) with qunpowdak ! There were some thirty persons assisting on the occasion in ex lineuishing the fire and unloading the goods When the fire was extinguised, it had reached within three or four inches of the powder, g-.mc of the boxes being slightly scorched and under these oiroumßtanoea, had tho train been com pellod to run three miles, instead of one, the result must have been fearful.

Thi< ie to certify that I am well acquainted with a man fifty years of age, for many yean a resident of this city, who has been et times extremely ill, bat could not tell from what cause, unless it was worms. He told his attend* log physician his suspicions, but the physician at once ridiculed the idea, and refused to attend him any longer. His son then mentioned Dr. M’Lane’s Vermifuge, and asked him If he woul’ take It; hia reply was—l must take something to get relief, or die. They at once procured a bottle of Dr. M'Lanefs celebrated Vermifuge, aud took one-half at one dose. The reaultwss he passed upwards of three quarts of toormi, cut up In every form. lie got welt Immediately, and Is nowenjoying most excellent health; and, like the good Samaritan of old, is endeavoring to relieve his unfortunate neighbors. He make? it bis business to hunt op and select cases simi lar to his own, that may be given over by tbe regular phy sicians, and induces them to try Dr. M’Lane’s Vermifuge, and in every case with tbe most happy results. He is well satisfied that Dr. M’Lane’s Vermifuge is far superior to any known remedy, and that if more generally known, would not fail to ssto many valuable lives.
