In this morning's PnEss we give the otil returns of the State election received pto the hour of going to press. In twon- iv_Aight COUlttle3, including Philadelphia, there is a Union gain of over seventeen :1101Thand, only one county showing a gain the Democratic party, and that of less than half a hundred votes. In the Adams and Franklin district, Mr. MCCONAtielillY, the Union candidate for Senator, is eaten by thirty-four votes, but it is be lt,ved the soldiers' vote will more than snake up that deficiency. In Luzerne ~ainty the Democratic candidate for Sena :or, STAN - LEY WooDwAno, is beaten by 235 votes. In the Franklin and Ferry Wpm t..ittative district the Union party gain one taemberin, Adams one, and ono in Aral €.lrong. As the other returns come in, the more g;orious will appear the victory' of Tuesday, and none will exult more in the success than the gallant standard bearers who, after whipping the foes of their country Ipon the field of battle, have compelled he sympathizers with their old enemy to -urrender at the ballot-box. Pnblle Alormsemenits. The second per formance of the Beans came at' last night at the Academy of Music. The icuße WAS nearly as full as on Thursday. The 2.:L9t of the " Merchant of Venice" included the following characters; Sig/rock, Mr. Kean; Par ma, Mrs. Kenn; iVerissa, Miss Chapman; Bas- VIM!), Mr. J. F. Cathcart ; Gratiano, Mr. George Everett; Antonio, Mr. W. 11 - . Collings; Launce loi (yobbo, 11Ir. T, Owens ; Jessica, Miss Ander son, and Lorenzo, Mr. D. B. Wylie—the last named actor sang a solo, as serenade to Jessica, and executed it so well that he was encored. The play was generally well acted, and Was Insalsomely put upon the stage. Mr. 11. C. Jarrett, lessee and manager during this brief season, has displayed judgment and liberality in getting up the pieces. The srchestra, though almost improvised, is very effective, with that able mealelna and. com poser, Dr. W. P. Cnnnington, as leader. Place aux dames is a gallant maxim, and therefore we first notice Mrs. Mean's Portia. in the cachet Vlalln with Bassoaio, sue played very much the Ellen Tree Of Other days— gentle, hopeful, tender—and was handsomely attired, though the cfrpangiVe crinoline surely 17[1.5 not Venetian, and looked very handsome, too. In part of the trial scene, she played with singular effect—that is, in the early part, where she enunciated the judgment that the Jew should have the fun and cruel penalty of his bond. But when it came to turning the to ales, to nullify ing that j migment, it NOM to tls that she exhibited. miller the vehement part'• sanship of a mere advocate, the unmoved bat earnest decision of a judicial Instead of being dignified and undemonStram live, aS a judge should be, she was almost vio lent in her triumph over miserable and „Vhnlask. It is Surprising that by Luis vehemence Bakanio did not detect her - personality before he sent her the ring by Uratiano. Mr. KaanTS Sity/ocit is a man In mldale age-- active, nervous, and intelligent. Ms bye-play «•as admirable at times. This character is one Of his best. Its key-note in his hands is hate. Any one who witnessed the fearful intensity IA hate exhibited by Mr. Kean as S hylock might have hastily thought that this was k little rellectioll irollid Coa -1 ince him that he was true to the spirit of the character—that is, trim to Shaks lleare—aricl WU not at all overcharge the In the trial scene Kr. Kean showed great power, and had reserved himself as much as he could for that closing exhibition. He sat isfied us, who are professional, critical—per haps oeeasloually captious—and we Could see and hear that he fully satisfied the audience. He has a clear and definite idea of Shyloek , s idiosyncrasy, and embodied it in his very in telligent and effective acting. This evening, the play , of " Louis be performed. The part of Louis is said to be Keants chif d'wurre. We cannot say, never having seen him play it. The play itself was performed at the Walnut-street Theatre souse years ago. THE NATIONAL FINANCES. SECRETARY NEMLOCIPE OPINION OF THEN AN IMPORTANT SPEECH FROM MM. eilrel.WNITI, °Ct. 13.—The Gazette publightla a speech made by Secretary IdeCulloeh, at Port Wayne, Indiana, on Wednesday night, in which he gives his views on the national finances. He said he wag not one of those who seem to repudiate coin as a measure of value, mid to make a sound nailer ourrenoy the standard ; on the contrary, he belonged to that class of persons who, regarding an exclusive metallic currency as an impracticable thing among enterprising and commercial people, nevertheless look upon an irredeemable cur rency as an evil which circumstances may for a time render necessary, but which is never to be sustained as a policy. 1.5 y the common. con sent of nations gold and silver are thebnly two measures of value ; they are the necessary regulators of trade. He favored a well-secured convertible paper currency. No other can to any extent be a Proper substitute for coin. It is not expeeted that there shall be a dollar iu ep4n . in reserve for every dollar of paper in ei&ulation; this not necessary. For all ordinary hOille trans actions paper currency is sufficient; but there are constantly occurring periods when the balances between countries, and in the United States between the different sections, must be settled in coin. These balances are insignitl- Cant, and, in comparison with the trans. actions out or which they arise, and when a vicious system of credit does not too long postpone settlements, they are arranged with nut disturbing the movements of coin. When. ever specie is needed for this purpose, Or fOr any other purpose, the paper currency of the country should be convertible Into it ) and a circulation not so convertible will not be, and ought not to be, tolerated by the people. The present unconvertible currency of the - United States 1 , 013.8 a neeessity of war; but now that the war has closed, and the Government ought not to be a borrower, the currency should be brought up to a specie standard; and he saw no way of doing it but by with drawing a portion of it from circulation. He had no faith in a prosperity which was the effect of a depreciated currency ; not could he see any safe path to tread but that which leads iv specie piviiients. The extreme high prices now prevailing indicate that the business. Of the edentry is in an unhealthy condition. We are measuring * allies by a false standard. We have a circulating mediate altogether largar than is needed for legitimate business, and the exceB6 if) used in speculations. _The tinned State is to-day the beat market In the world for foreigners to welt in, Ma ocun pequince is that Europe is selling us more Than she buys of mg, including 011 r Securities, which ought not to go abroad, and there Is a debt rolling up against us that must be settled in part at least in coin. The Ipnger the infla tion continues the more difficult, it will be for tis to get back to specie payments, to which we must return sooner or later. If Congress shall, early in the approaching senion, author , ize the funding Of the legal tenders, and the work of reduction is commenced, and chee . r- Adly and prudently carried on, We shall reach it probably -without injury and eminvrras meet to legal business. If not we shall have a brief period of seductive prosperity, reSulting In wide-sprcan naakraptey awl disaster. He spoke of the evil tendency of the present in_ illation on the public morals, converting the business of the country into gambling and se riously diminishing the labor of the country. We are apparently getting richer when mo rality languishes and the productive industry of the country is being diminished. He was hopeful that by wise legislation we will escape a financial collapse, and thattlte currency may be brought to the specie stamia‘d without -these financial troubles which have in all 'countries followed protracted and extensive -Ware.

The Department of State has just received advices from Constantinople, Port Mahon, Florence, and Genoa, in reference to ravages Of Cholera in those places. The cholera has almost entirely disappeared from Constanti• nople and vicinity. The United States Consul at Port Mahon represents that the usual popu lation of Paleno ' one of the provinces, is esti mated at about fifty thousand souls. On the 17th of September the population did not ex. eeed fifteen thousand, thirty-five thousand having either ilea the city or perished from this terrible scourge. On that day onehundred and. thirty-seven deaths occurred from it ; since then the deaths are - reported at from one hundred and fifty to one hundred and sixty per day. The infection appears in a very aggravated form, and seems to baffle human skill. Reports reached Port. Mahon that the disease is spreading into the interior bf Spain. In closing the despatch, the consul says: Should this disease cross the Atlantic and. visit our shores, much may be done to miti gate its . rtwagee, if the people will prepare themselves to meet it u-a.'th their allures on. The United States consul general in Italy, under date of Sept. Si, says The history of the pro grasis of this terrible disease during the pre sent season proves beyond question that it is, according to the usual acceptation of the term, _contagious, and need not become an epi demic where quarantine measures, combined with judicious sanitary regulations, are strictly enforced. Statistics upon this subject from this kingdom so strongly support this theory that it is ardently to be hoped that the experience of Italy will serve as a guide to othtr nations as yet exempt from its visita tion, although the French sanitary au thorities seem somewhat disposed to ignore the efficacy Of strict isolation waliquarantine. The etates consul at Gen oa,reforring tO the cholera, says teat. e as soon as the cholera up-poured. Ancona a sanitary committee Was appointed by the t overnment in Ghent, as indeed in all the cities o 5 tim Kingdont. This committee labored incessantly to eleane." the city, to remove the poorest people from crowded and unhealthy tenements' and to induce the population to avoid such food and excitement us are believed to prepare the way for disease. At this moment Genoa is one of the cleanest cities in Europe, and we owe it to the faithful labors of the sanitary Commis sion, Certain religiOnS festivals which have usually been devoted to over-eating and drinking, haVe been suspended for tails year, and some articles Of foOd—as for -exaMple, mushrooms—have been excluded from the city. The wenther,which in August was Singu larly cool, has been very hot during the last two weeks, and it is, therefore, perhaps too soon to say we have escaped the cholera for the present year, but should the disease visit us, I think there will be few victims."

Memorials from South Caroline in Be• half of Jeff Davis. Judge WKRDLAW, AL - exceo nitaltP., and COl, DAWKINS, of South Carolina, this afternooti, had an interview, by appointment, with Pre sident Jouwsoi, They were accompanied by W. IL TKEECOTT, ESCi., who is here On business as executive agent of that State. The Presi dent, after the customary preliminaries of the - reception, invited them to be seated, when at once the conversation commenced by Judge WARDLAW informing him that they were a delegation from the State Convention of Smith Carolina sent hither to present certain Me morials of that body. These memorials had been very carefully cOnsidered in the con vention, and he believed that they told exactly the truth. The President inquired the object of the memorials, Judge Wardlaw informed him that one of them was in behalf of Jetferson Davis, A. btepliens, George A. Trenholm and Governor NeGratb. lL said they had untlerstood that, by the kind interference of the President, fiiessrs. Stephens and Trenholm had already keen released from confinement, and per mitted to faun to their homes. Ito would ask let Governor AlcCiratli either a pardon, Or that he might be released on 'parole. They could assure the President that no harm worth' arise from each all act Of clemency. The President replied that all crime not be pardoned at once. The business would be proceeded with gradually, and an effort would he Made to execute the law; a discrimination was necessary, as we g 0 along,. /t was a too common expression, by way or argument for clemency, that,snoh a one had been pardoned, mid that he way just as bad as another who had riot. .lodge Wardlaw replied that the dele gation present tal no such argument as that. The President said sometimes the peculiar Thenlity bad much td do with pardons. Like teeny other things in num..nifaira, eau• not have a nxed rule. Much depends on dIS• eretton and Circumstances. If we know our selves, we Milt to do What IS best and just, and to show a proper degree of humanity on the part orthe Government. Judge Wardlaw remarked that they had not come Judge to express their own hopes and desires, but as delegates from the South. Crake ling Convention to present the memorials of that body in a general manner. The rreffhlellt, We will extend, gentlemen, all the facilities and civilitiesk.Viiielt the Will . tions require. We would prefer to pardon twenty men than refuse one. eJltdgo Wardlaw replied that they did not de sign to say anything with reference to Gover nor McGrath further than that they behoved much good would result by the exercise of the Executive Clemency toward him. Colonel Dawkins said if we can get Governor McGrath paroled it would be a great relief to him at the present time. Judge Wardlaw thanked the President for baying released Messrs. Stephens and Trim holm. The President. We have that far anticipated your memorial. Air. linger said Mr. 'NTOnholla was o ° o of doubt he most useful men, ana there was no he would exert all his power with a view to entire harmony between the State and the Government. The President replied, he understood that was so, adding that if treason has been com mitted, there ought to be somo test to deter mine the power of the Government to riunish the crime. lie was free to say that it was not a mere contest betweenpolitical parties, or a question as to de facto govern ments. Looking at the Government as WO do, the laws violated and an attempt made at the life of a nation, there should be a vindication of the Government and the Constitution, even if the pardoning power were exorcised thereafter. If treason has been committed, it ought to be determined by the highest tribunal, and the fact doclarod,oven if clemency should come afterward. There Was no malice or prejudice in wishing to carry out that duty. Judge warmly remarked that they were well aware of that, The PreSideut, resuming, said there may be SOll/0 unkind feelings on this subject, but it did not Mast to any great extent. mige. Ward iaw said, although not instruct ed by the convention, he wag induced to ask whether Mrs. Jefferson Davis, who was now eonEned in Georgia, could noteross into South Carolina to see her friends _ . . The president replied that he had received letters from Mrs. Davis, but they were not very commendable. • The tone of one of them, however, - was considerably improved, but the others were not of the character becoming one asking leniency. Judge Wardlaw interposed by saying she cras a woman of strong feeling, The president replied; Yes, / SUppose sha id a woman of strong feeling and temper, but there is no intention to persecute her. There is as much magnanimity, and independence, and nobleness Of Spirit ih submitting, as in trying to put the Government at defiance. True magnanimity takes things as they are, and when taken in the proper way disconnect them from humiliation. Manifestations of temper and defiance do no good. Der. linger remarked that they had a deep eollBClOilfiriebS of the truth of all the President Said, The President, resuming, Observed that the. character of tin individual may Characterize a nation, which is nothing but an aggregate of individuals. and when a proper ,spirit is manifested all can act harmoniously. The man who secs to the stake is almost dignified by llis bearing. It lifts him above humiliation. In these cases, gentlemen, we will do the best we can. While there was sympathy, there was a public judgment, which must be met. But I assure you, gentlemen, no disposition exists for perScentlilri or a thirst for Med, Judge Wardlaw re - Marked that the tone Of the newspapers *as More favorable, and dif ferent from what it was. lie then asked if the President had seen a copy of the amended constitution of South Carolina. Of course, he said, we accept emancipation. Ile felt perfect ly satisfied that the person and property of the negro will he protected, and spoke of the great difficuities of regulating labor and Of restraining vagrancy, etc. The President thought many of the difficul ties would disappear if they inaugurated the right system. Pass laws protecting'the colored man, his person and property, and he can col lect his debts. He knew now it was in the South. The (location, when first presented, of putting a altered Ulan on the witness stand, made them shrug their shoulders- hat the colored man's testimony was to be taken for what it was worth by those who ex amine him and the jury who hear it. After all, there was not so inuCh danger as was sup• posed. Those coming out of slavery cannot do without work. They cannot lie down• in dissipation—they must work. They ought to understand that liberty means simply the right so work and to enjoy the products of labor, and thastncArbwu willorotect them.

Judge Wardlaw, COlOile) Dawkins and Air. Huger all expressed to the President their eon victiOn that the State had accepted in good faith the result of the issue which had been made ; that the people felt that the President had steed between them and a harsh use of the power of the Government; that they felt en tire•conlicienee in his purposes and action, and hoped, in return, to entitle themselves/t0 his COMldenee as to their feeling and action. The President replied that he was glad to hear; that whenever such mutual Confidence existed there would, he thought , be au -open road to the restoration of goodfeeling and a prosperous condition, and if he knew IlialSelf d and he thought he did, he would recommend nothing hut what would advance their in terests, So far from pandering for or looking to future elevation, he must be believed when he said he had no eye single to such prefer merit. "If, " he continued' I could be Instru mental in restoring the Government io its former relations, and see the people once more united and happy, I should feel that I haditnore than filled the measure of my ambi tion. If I would feel that I hadvontributed to this in any degree, my heart would be more than gratified and royamhition full." Judge Wardlaw. Every man in South Caro lina would respond to that. Mr. Huger. I am sure there is on their part no rum. faith. They deserve your conildeneof and I am sure they will earn it, The President expressed himself gratified with what had been said by these gentlemen. Mr. Dawkins remarked that all South Caro lina reposed confidence in the President, and that the memorials presented by the chairman of the delegation represented the true senti ments of the people of that State, both in re gard to those whom they Wish pardoned, and pie feeling and position of South Carolina.
