THE .ELECITIONS.
The patriotic heart of the nation rejoima
over the signal victories'of the week s - The
people have rendered a verdict again the
policy - of the President, - while Congress is
nobly sustained.
,Notwithstanding.the deser
tion of the men whom it had trusted, the
Union Republic= party stands firmer and
stronger to-day than ever. In spite of pa
tronage which has been used against the
party by the President, it has carried every
Northern State, the great proportion of:
them, by, overwhelming majorities. . New
.Tersey is. fully redeemed. She has now,
a clear majority -in = her Legislature on
joint ballot and will elect a . "Union Re-'
publican Senator to take the place of Mr.
Wright, deceased. Out of five Members ,of
Congress chosen she has elected four. • Al
though Delaware has 'gone against us, yet
the Copperhead majority has been reduced
so much, that it is deemed quite probable
'that fu another canvass the little State will be
redeemed. Except that State arid Maryland
all of the States that voted- on Tuesday last
'went Republinan and rebuked the traitorous
eels of Andrew Johnson in unmistakable
terms. The complexion of the next. Con
gress will be- of such a character - that,po
Presidential plot of setting.up a bogus COD
gress by the aid of the members of ten rebel
lious States , who'cannot gain admission into
the true Congress, and
. witla the aid of Cop
perheads and weak-kneed Republicans, can
- succeed. - It is satisfactory to know that the I
wicked machinations of the matt who OCCU
pies the Presidential chair, will be of no
'avail to him or his friends, the, rebels, for
through the remainder of his adnainistration
he will be confronted by just such .a Congress
as the present one. be of little mcr
.ment to the people in the future what he
does or leaves undone_ They have lost all
confidence in him And Will never - trust him
again.
The result in Maryland and in -Delaware,
. shows what a hold the old slave-driving pre
judice, has yet upoti the, people.. TheY seem
to hate "the name of Union as intensely as
ever. It is plain that the,se people will .not.
learn'. It is also manifest that there will be
no 'protection for Union men in the South
until Impartial Suffrage is established. We
believe that is the only safe guarantee for
good conduct after admission, and that it
should be made a condition on the rebellious
States. We hope that this matter will - engsge
the attention of the next Congress. As the
party of progress the Republican should
place Impartial Suffrage on its ,bannels, nor'
lower those banners until that just principle
is successful. That is its duty; and if it does
not it will be, recreant to that duty, and like
. all other parties that have compromised with
wrong it will pass into oblivion, having per- .
formed much; but faltering at the last step of
its progress.' Let the historian be - able to
point to that party and say, it was' the firm,
uncompromising champion Of All Rights for
THE NEXT CONGRESS.
In the elections_ which tootz-place on Tues
day !nit the loSs -and phi in Congress wil
about balance each other. In New York we
lost three and gained three ; in New Jersey
we gained two and lost one; in Maryland we
lost tWo ; in Illinois we gained one, and in
Missouri we gained one - and lost two.

I l i store to poWer the men who'had attempted
'_. ". to carry Maryland into the Southern*Confed-•

' - - 7 for at the late electim under his -advice and
~,:f. ;. that of Iteverdy Johnson, a "liberal construe

il'. thousands were added to the lists of qualified

*Confederacy, and other thousands who had
been disqualified by reason of aid and com
e- fort rendered to the rebellion.- - •
/. As we stated in our last, Swann removed
' I the loyal Police.' Commissioners, but *very
k

' ' sion of 'the Governor. They determined to
appeal' to the courts and continue the dis-:

proposition to adjust the whole difficulty was

Union generals, in which the Union - men
readily acquiesced; but the friends of Swann
subsequently insisted upon the novel and tin:-

• "Few places in our State afford a more pleasiog

haps the most entertaining inland city, in the
State, affords the - tourist plenty of sight seeing

it is hard for the , visitor to tear • himself awaY.
After passing onward two score of miles er leas,
we land at a great coal mining centre, Pottsville. -
'Situated as the.town is in a perfect basin, without
an - outlet save through some narrow gulsh" be

bewildered at the contemplation of civilization. In
no one place of equal. size in .the State, is there
more money disbursed among the laboring classes
than in this district, and .when vre- inform the

- Nem Powder Mil2.—The 'introduction of natimi
facturing operations into this Region is a matter
we have always encouraged.on:the princiole local',
as well as national; that the true way to:build up
a commuoity; a State or a country, is - to encourage
home productions: We were therefore, much in
terested a - day Pr two since in -. viewing the oppera
tions of a new powdermill located in . . North Alan
beim Township on. the West Branch; about a mile
and a half above SchnYlkill tHaven, and - which
has beep in - operation abimat 'two months. The
proprietors are blessn3. A. G. W. & Smith.
The
. baildings .were commenbed Ikcember of
last year,. and completed . at.the Gloss of the peat
Summer. The. ground ccupied is about. eight
actes. The buildings which "contain all of the .
latest' improved machiner for making powder,
comprise: a grist mill .for grinding.- saltpetre, tlie.
`machinery of which is run 'by a Hicks' engine,'
ten horse power ; a store-house, banel-mill, com
position-cylinders, press liOnse, corning mill, gla
zing house and charcoal furnace, all complete in
their. appointmentri, 'apparently, capable of
turning out an excellent quality of mining . and
blasting rowder. The furnace that' furnishes
heated air to the diYing house, was the invention
of the late iitr, John Smith; father of the young
• men who compose this artil;'_, 'Nothing Superior to
it for the purpose, has ever been devised,' The
machinery:of the corning. mill and drying house,
is driven by water power,. three different descrip=
tions of turbine - wheel being: Used. The race
which, conveys the water is a neat and substantial
piece of mason work. In fast all of the improve
mente..are constructed in the best manner at au
aggregate - . Cost of 'about.seventy thousand . dol
lars.
. .
The capacity of the mill is about one hundred
and fifty kegs a day. Eaoh keg contains twenty
five pounds of powder. In September the mill
turned out 221 kegs and in October : 1221. The
powder we understand, gives satisfaction for
quickness and strength. . • • - ' •
Mr. James Muir is general agent for the firm;

Mrsses. Rommta MCNnair JOURNAL:—We have lust
seeu a copy of. the: chemical analysis of the waters of
Mill Creek, which we do not purpose to criticise:not ,
being professors of that invaluable science,. but with
• your permission,, we desire to Make -a few common
'sense remarks in reply to,the conclusion the learned
gentlemen arrive at as the result of their investigation:
. Their report, made at the instance, of the Now Zoe
ton 'Coal and Mining ComPanY;concludea in theca re-
marks:llle words:' . - • • .
• "It therefore follows from all the facts (in,the analy
els). First. That the, water of Mill Creek, when it enters
the Pottsville Water Company's pipes, is one, of the
rcarer Wirer:a used for oIUNKISO purposes and for
.sleam boilers, by reason of the''extremely small con
tents of solid-matter per gallon, and of the composition
.of that matter, ' ' • • •
•
'Second.. That the colliery works' and water of the
New Boston Coal and 3fining Company do 'not lanntit
or even appear In any way to srveor the waters, f Mill
Creek, because the water is prima where it Is lavned by
theyottsville WaterCompaay thattit above .
Vbird.' That the evidence deducible from theanaly
sisis thatthe waters of Rill Creek art mireovro rather
than detedorated by, the colliery, because they.become
PP:frau and Tnnint. from the point where the colliery.
%water enters Ilse Creek," •
•• This seems strange, if true. But let us look at it.--
And we would first State the fact that the present ope
ning of.the New Boston'Colliery has been but recently
commenced, and it is well known that the water in. the
:drat opening of, a nigge ash colliery is com,tratively,
rue!, and therefore, tilonld not for, a time be deleteri
ous, or in any way greatly affect such drolutue of wa
ter as has - passed down Mill 'Creek the hut three
months. Put as the work progresses' in depth, breasts
opened and gangways, driven preparatory, to mining
iargelnantitlett of cent, (as it is doubtleits the intention
of thii mammoth company to slo,) the mine water be-'
comes more and more Impregnated with the moat dele::
terions propertles•-so_ much so in fact,' that the simple
'dropping of the mine water on railroad - iron will eat
through anlnch bar in a fortnight, and in some mines
estill shorter time. •
We would therefore, 'wit if any one, ran suppose for a
• single moment that a •LAROE 411L-NTlTY.Ofsuch' water
running into - a'stretim used in the supply of, water for.
domestic parpoees in any town or ' city, can possibly
improvethe quality of.that water? • • •
There Is also. another point we wish to notice. ft is
well known to all of as living in this region and emus ,
turned to obierve,the great difference ln our. Mountain
streams When the Water Is lOW and when they are une
sually fall, as has beenthe ease for the last few months,
that et the time Of high water the washings from coal
dirt banks add the tattle water pumped into the streams
scarcely make a perceptible.difference in the appear
ance of the water; but in the 'hot - summer mutts, as
the waterstecome slow snd sluggish, if you will take
the trouble to Malt any of theatreams hi the vicinity of
the numerous coal operetions, you* will . see the water
' black as the roentgen, the appearance of 'which alone.
lg'revolting; would be much more , so, if. we sup
posed fora moment it was to be our daily drink.
Renee it is that in &time or low water, which gener
ally occurs in .the -hottest weather, and when a cup 'of
cool, pure and sparkling water is • the most grateful
thing that 'can be imagined, yew can z many see our
.proapeCtive condition next summer with.the New Bog-.
ton Minns in full Relation t for if.wp understand the
locality of the Water Company's pipes;_they must de
pend mainly for a supply of water pumped ftorri the
New Boston mines, when Mill Creek is tialpty as 'we
have often seen it.' If such sh,mld be the case, we
doubt net but Ilia antibring humanitY of Pottsville and
all the 00n2Innaln of water pOw.liherally supplied. and
of unquestioned 'purity, by, the Comminy, will exclaim
“wepreferthe water as it was before' the attetnpfed
improvement by the introduction of mine" water and
. • Another Point in the report of the gentlemen we idaii
to say -sword word aboet. They give comparative analy
sis between our own mountain, streams and the water
used by the different water companies of London, and
the Delaware River, and the Schuylkill Water • used in
Philadelphia; and - the water. at' Schuylkill Raven, and
• if.we understand•the inference, it is if the people of
-ItAition and Philadelphia tad drink the water of their'
respectivecities and Ltva, there. would certainly be no
harm to mix a little ste.egroamaorn and. otherweocs- - •

and positive evidence the position we have taken—that
'when the mine -water is permitted to flow in large
.quantities ipto the streguns, and the washings (lewd dirt
from the thousand coal banks °Little. margin of:those
