The vote on Tuesday last resulted in the
election by a small majority of tho ticket
as it was formed by the standing Committee,
and which was falsely called the Hemocratie
ticket. AVe say falsely because the manage
ment of the election was taken out or the
hand tT the people contrary to the first
principles of Democracy. They huve, how
ever, learned n lesson that may result in good,
and wo venture to say, they will never repent
the same thing ngain. Wo will never vote
for a candidate who will condescend to swear
to his democracy An honest nnd indepen
dent Democrat never should and never will
do such a thing. The success of iho ticket
mav be attributed to various causes. Among
thorn, the small turn-out, the name of Pernor-
racy which induced many to vote, though re
luctantly, the faction ticket in the absence of
n regular tjeket, the division among them
selves of the opponents of the ticket, besides
this, the liquor league was brought to bear
in lavor ol tlio cocilisli ticket.

KlMUl'llY AM) KIUE RA1LIIOAU.
The cars on the Snnbury and Krie rail
road failed, oil Tuesday morning, to make
their usual trip between Northumberland and
Wiliiamsport, much to our disappointment
and inconvenience, as we had come across
from Cattawissa that morning, for the pur
pose of getting home to the election, on our
way from Elmira, by way of Scranton and
Wilkesbarro. One of the locomotives gut off
the track and was considerably damaged
the other was in the shop for repair-, and
thus tho running of tho trains was suspended
for some days two weeks after the opening
of tho road. Yi'e understand that the Com
pany who run the cars, intend getting new
engines. We trust that this is so. The
iSunbury and F.rie is one of the best roads in
thecotintry, and Ehould bo stocked with the
first class of machinery, not only as a matter
of polic y, but of economy.
THIS ELECTION.
The election on Tuesday, throughout the
State, has resulted favorably tothe democrat
ic party. The legislature will be largely de.
mocrutic. Although tho dcmruiuiic purt v
' may be Faid to be tlio only oifC'!' the old
party organizations in the field, vet the con-
test was not strictly a party question. The
American party was no doubt largely aided
by many of the temperance party, and a num.
ber of the whig. The democratic party, on
the other hand, received a strong support
from the -liquor league" mid many of the old
Jino whigs. Without the liquor league uud
the split in the opposition for Register and
Recorder, the Inquisition ticket would have
never seen daylight in this county.
We have said nothing, nor do we intend to
say unything against the successful candi
dates, whom we opposed. Our personal re-
lariuns wiih most of them, have always been of
a fnennly cnaracter. Our priucipul objection
was the mode and manner as well us the
means used to secure their election.
C1T The editor of the Gazette dont like
our "old documents" and makes another lame
itttempt to excuse his tudden change of oppo
sition to Gen. Cameron. This change took
place Several veart before the K now Vi.llilmr.

nut states that the money requisite for build
ing tho proposed railroad between Auburn
and Allentown has oil been secured, and that
-the road will be p"ut under contract as speed
ily as potsihlo. It is also proposed to con
struct the Norristowu and Allentown rond.
which would make a complete connection
between Philadelphia and the coal regioTi by
new route, using the Norrietowu and Phila.
deiphia road as its eastern end. The route
is un easy aud good one down the valley or
Peikiouien creek, nnd a road through that
regiou would be paying one, as it would uot
only connect Philadelphia with ths Schuylkill
region by the new route, but also give it a
direct lie of railway to th Lebicb regiou,

TIIE STATE FAIR AT KLMlft A.
In company with a number of our citizens
of this county, wo Tisited the State Fair of
the New York Agricultural Society, recently
held at Klmirn. Tho weather was of the
most unfavorable character, raining almost
continually the first two days. Notwith.
standing the weather, thousands were on the
ground the first day of tho fuir. A handsomo
tent had been provided for the accomodation
of the Pennsylvania delegation near tho Pres
idents tent and in it was exhibited some Cno
specimens of coal from the collieries of Coch
ran, Peale & Co., and Boyd, Rosser & Co.,
from tho Shamokin mines, which attracted
great attention, particularly tho two largo
blocks of coal, weighing over a ton each, In
front of the tent, and from tho top of which
Mr. Diven President of the Williumsport and
Fdmira Railroad made n speech, introducing
Gov. Bigler to the audience, who addressed
them on tho subject of aericulture, but more
particularly in regard to tho trado and com
merce between the two states by means of
the Puubnry nnd Frio, and Williumsport nnd
Klmirn rail roads, which had just completed
a rail communication 'etween Klmira and the
S'tiamokin mines. lie alluded to tho fact
that tho first train of coal cars had arrived

Mr. Cheever, the President of the New
York Agricultural Society made an .ippro
priate reply, and returned thanks for the
large lumps of coal which had been presented
through him to the society.
The exhibition though large nnd attractive,
was not, in many respects, equal to the Ro
Chester Fair. The Hotel keepeas had a rich
harvest. Fliuira is a large and flourishing
town, containing about 10.000 inhabitants.
Some of the residences are handsome, and got
up with much good taste. The Hotels are
large and commodious. We stot'iied ut the

The proprietors had generally agreed not to '
Charge more than 2 per day. We paid at j
our Hotel f,0 cents for lodging .r0 cents a I
meal us we took them, the dinner being, pro- j
perly speaking, the only warm meal. As for j
lodging, more than six in a bed was strictly
prohibited. Our bed was made up of what
had been left, after long use and pressure, of j
what was once a mattress, laid on a sacking j
bottom, and had it been even, would h.ivo
been almost equal to a well carpeted floor
for comfortable sleeping. '

Ti'JMfXt.txo tub Broad Mountain. We
nnderstand that Mr. Poole, an engineer of
tho Mine Hill Ruilroad, has been for snmo
t imo engaged, tinder tho directions or that
Company, to mnko rcconnoissnnces for the
location of the proposed tunnel throngh the
Broad Mountain. This is one of the most
important public improvements ever under
taken in this region, as it will develope an
immense extent of coul territory which can
have no other outlet to tho Fast, except by
means of heavy ascending grades and In
clined planes. Tha rock to bo cut- through
is the conglomerate or tho coal formation,
nnd although very difficult and costly to pen
etrate, it is confidently asserted that the
work can be executed nt a cost of less that)
82,000.000. It will pnv the interest of five
times that amount. The tunnel will vary
from 2t to 3 miles in length ; but tho selec
tion of the location will depend moro on the
character of tho rock, and other local con
siderutious, than the length of excavation to
