Upper Augus ta. We learn that quite a warm feeling is beginning to be exhibited between our neighbors of Lower and Upper Augusta townships in regard to onr neighbor of the Democrat. The democrats always had a majority in Upper Augusta, but Inst year Purdy took up his residence in that town, ship and now it has changed, which some wag suggests was caused by Furdy's pre sence in that township. A number of per sons in Lower Augusta arc trying to per suade him to remove into that township, and promise to give him an office if he will consent. In Upper Augusta the people are decidedly opposed to this movement at pre sent, as they desire to increase the Repub lican mnjority. DEATH OP JOHN VAN BUHEN. Tbe death of the Hon. John Van Burcn has caused deep regret in New York, where he was so well known and respected. His wide acquaintance, his social qualities, and his relationship both to a former President and leading public men, combine to render bis unexpected demise a most paintul sur prise. He died on board the steamship Sco tia, on Monday, October 15, on his return from Europe, where had been for his health and while within a few hcurs of port. He was the son of the late President Martiu Van Buren, and was born at Hudson, N. Y., February 18, 1810: graduated from Yole in 1828 ; read law with Hon. B. F. Butler, of Albany ; was berreinry ot Legation to his father while the latter was Minister to Ens- land, in 1831-'2, and was chosen Attorney Gcnernl for the Stuto of New York in 1843. Then he retired to the practice of his pro fession. In 1848 he way one of the promi nent advocates of the free soil party, und from that time to this has been before the public as a speaker upon the questions of the day. He was ono who believed firmly in the middle path, and his conservatism was so great that it caused liitu to halt when persistency would have been victory. He was a most genial and Agreeable com panion wen read, quicK in repartee, never vindictive, and finding some witty apology lor tna worst deluats. His position in his profession was deservedly hiiili, and on the stump or in a lecture room be had a sinuu Ur power of chaining attention. Somethii-.g like an apparent lack ot sincerity prevented mm from gaining the full succcbs to which his qualifications entitled hiiu. During the presidential term of his father he visited Lnglimd, where he was received at court with distinguished notiee. He had the self-possession requisite tor a proper ap preciation of such attentions: and the fnct of his reception by the royal family of Eng land was trumpeted Through this rotir.try as showing the ambition of tho Van Bmen family for regal distinction. The very ridi culousness of these assaults made them more noticed, and the nickname of."l'iinco John" then bestowed upon him adhered through life. A sjjort time hfter his return Mr. Van Buren was married to Miss Vanderpocl, by whom he became tho father of a daughter. Mrs. Vur Buren died shortly afterwards, aud he never married again. His health had been failing for several years. He was compelled to withdraw for a period from active life. But for some time he was supposed to be amending. The last season, he sailed for England in company with his daughter and niece, the daughter of Smith Van Buren. and was apparently in tho most robust health. All enjoyed their tour among the mountains, the lochs and moors of Scotland. The tour had been con eluded and the party set out for home in the Scotia. Mr. Vun Buren again began to fail ; n general debility seized him, and finally on Sunday last terminated fatally. ConRrntvi'.iis.vy AdJms from the. ItfixiblUuu (Mute ( culi al 4 one lull lee.

Ou behulf of the Commune, I congratulate the people of the Stuto upon the grand results of the recent political con test. We have elected onr candidate for Governor by a large majority. We have in dorsed the Constitutional Amendments pro posed by Congress. We have secured about two thirds of both branches of tho Legisla ture. We have elected eighteen out ot the twenty-four members of Congress, a gain of iwu over our preseut ueleguliou. Tliese are the substantial results of our complete and magnificent victory ; a victory achieved by the patriotic efforts of a loyal people, in de fiance of the basest betrayal on record, and in spile of the most reckless abuse of Gov ernment patronage ever eucouutered by auy party ; a triumph of right over wrong, and fairly won, in a desperate struggle, and against as unscrupulous means as were ever resorted to by auy adversary.

Jordan, Chairmao. vThe Industrial establishments of New York employ 50.000 fumslee TllBTROUnt.t: I.t JtIARYE.AKl. A correspondent of tbe New York Timet, writing from Baltimore, gives the most clear account ot the nature Ot the controversy Be tween Governor Swann and the Police Com missioners of Baltimore that we have yet seen. It is worth reproducing for the infor mation of our readers. The trouble arises under the following circumstances: The amended Constitution of Maryland of 18U4 disfranchises, forever all who took arms in the Rebellion, and makes it the .joint duty of Judges and Uegistcrs of election to use all diligence to the end that the ballot shall bo protected against disloyal voters. In the same year a Registry law was framed, which directed that each voter applying to be registered must take a stringent oa'.lt ol llixnanr-p mill nwenr that he will not only onmiiirt tlm f 'miatitiitiiin and laws of the State, but has never given aid or counte nance to or opecly expressed sympathy tor the llebelliou. . nr The first registry took place in 1 . There were three Registers lor each voting precinct, appointed by the Governor Ten thousand votes were registered in Baltimore, the rest of the population being either dis loyal, or sympathizing with the Rebellion so much that they could not take the outh of alleniancc and of repudiation of Rebel sympathies. The second registry is to take place this year, one iJccister lor eaell pre cinct being unpointed bv the Governor. At the time of the recent municipal election this registry had not been finished, uud it was a question whether the persons already registered this year had a right to ov. or whet lit r tue voters were no otuer man tuose who were registered last year. This was a legal question, and there were contlicting opinions about it. Reverdy Johnson, whoso sympathies lean towards the Democratic and .Secession parties, was of opinion that the newly registered citizens bad a right to vote. But tho Attorney General of the State, at the request of the Governor, gave Ins opinion, to ttie etlect that only the voters on the registration of the former year could vole at the municipal election, the other registry being incomplete. Tho Police Commissioners accordingly, in compliance with the official opinion of the aw omcer ot tue state ot aiuryuina ex cluded the uewly registered voters from the polls. I his is the oUence tor which they arc summoned to answer at Annapolis. There are other points also, which involve the nature of the registry. On one hand it is claimed that if the Register put a name on the registry the man is entitled to vote, no matter whetuer lie is or is not disquali fied by the Constitution and laws. On the other side it is asserted that the registry only gives to a man n right to prevent his vote, and that the election olliccrs luivc au thority to inquire as to his claims to citizen ship, by virtue of that clause of the Consti tution which makes it the joint duty of Registers and Judges of election, to use diligeuce to protect the ballot against die loyal voters, and of the law which permits the judges of electiou to administer the oath of allegiance whenever they deem such a course necessary. That caution is now re quired,, is asserted in cousequence of some of the Registers appointed by Governor Swann being men of Secession proclivities, who, by the Constitution and laws, are disfranchised. That such is the case, may be inferred from the arguments against the right of the Judges to reject disloyal voters, who are registered, although by the law it is plain enough that they have a right to do so. Governor Swann, who was elected as a Union man, has now gone over to"my policy." lie is in full sympathy with every Rebel who went into the Southern army, and every Se cession sympathizer who hated the Union cause. The outcry against the Police Com missinncis of Baltimore is because they arc faithfully carrying out the law, and if they are removed by Governor Swann it will be because he desires the men who are distrait chised by the Constitution of Maryland to get once more t lie upper band, and restore the terrorism of the llltli of April, 1801.

Since the General und Mr. Crane's family left Fort Laruod, news has been brought in that the Indians had robbed the sutler's storu there.

Editor Body Mountain Sent : The Indian excitement yet continues. It appears that Colonel Alexander und the citi zens a few days ugo drove them into the mountains, but yesterday they returned to the head of the Huerfano and resumed their bloody deeds of murder, stealing und shoot ing down the cattle. The latter amusement they are indulging in very freely. Settlers are coming up to this place and others are fortifying ut home. Up to this time three men have been killed and several are missing. If we don't get help immediately no one can foresee the end. All the tine crops of this valley will fall into their bands with the stock, und many ure the victims who will full to their tender mercies. Badito, Upper Hckiifano, Monday, Oct. 8, 18U(i. Major D.

They hud a fight with I lie soldiers and citizens on the Purgatories, and then eaniu to the quiuchuras uud took the stock from there. Then they cumo to the Huerfano und killed two men and took all the horses for twelve miles up the creek. The latest report is that they have taken the stock from Jean Hiucklins and killed one man. The Boldiers and citizens are ou their trail but will not overtake them. The AVw predicts a loug and serious In dian war, and notices tho anxiety the Indi ans havo displayed for a jear pust to obtain fire-arms aud ammunition at most extrava gant rates. By this means the Indians have secured quite a stock of the reserved arms at the recent distribution of the annuities. In the Middle Park, Colorado, one of their chiefs boldly advocated driviug the whites out of the mountains. The Indians, ignor ing a treaty by which they ceded to the Government the lands of Middle Park, dic tated the terms and conditions on which the white might occupy the park, in the same way as if the land still belonged to them. The negotiating party on our side did not allow this, lu this treaty the Indians stip ulated that tho whites might build a road through the park ; but no settlement except tho neccasury station house on the road would be allowed.

Oct. 22.-The most terrific wind storm that ever visited this section of the country swept over this city at Imir past four yesterday afternoon, doing an inci edible amount of damage. From the south, bear ing a little eastward, ft seemed to twiBt like a screw. It lasted from ten to fifteen minutes, snd was about a quarter of a mile wide when It first struck, but grew narrower as it pro ceeded north. Scores of buildings were unroofed, and hundreds more or less damaged ; trees and lences were uprooted in every direction; shutters, signs anil timbers, and all loose things were carried through the air almost like feathers. No lives are yet reported to havo been lost, but several persons were seriously injured. The following are some of the most se rious injuries sustained. All the chimneys of the City Hospital were blown down, nnd" the adjoining house com pletely wrecked. The unfinished brick sta bles of tho People's Railway Company, near La Fayette Park, were blown down, and tbe old stables demolished. Two breweries on Lafayette avenue lost their chimneys, nnd a part ol their roof. The Church of Angels, iu course of con struction on St. Angevine street, had the roof of tho whole ot tlie south and portions oi an the other walls blown down. The pastor's house, near bv. was also badly damaged A new three-story warehouse on Sixth street, belonging to Mr. Ko?nig, was pros trated, only a portion of one wall being left standing. The roof of Burnum & Lindell's Hotel was somewhat damaged; also the Mer cantile Library building. A lurge portion of the roof of Darbfs' marble building, at tlie corner of Fifth and Olive streets, was rolled upon and blown into the street. The greatest fury of the storm seems to have been spent on tlie u t uiien romecn nical Institute-a very large unfinished build ir.g, at the corner of Seventh and Chestnut streets. Two immense chimneys were blown down, breaking a hole in the roof, into which the wind entered, tearing up tlie tin roonng like paper, and currying large portions oi it, weighing several hundred pounds, a distance of from three to five blocks. A thice-fctory house adjoining had the whole rear end" forced in, und ttie reverend father, pastor of the Church of the Immacu late Conception, was killed and its other occupants badly hurt. Several other houses in the immediate vicinity were severely dam aged. Several steamboats were blown from their moorings and forced over the river, Alt the telegraph lines leading out of the city were prostrate 1 und the fire alarm tele graph was very badly cut up. But a portion of the damugc done in the city is yet known. No intelligence bus been received from the country, where it is expected the damage has been very great. A rain storm accom panied the wind and a good deal of hail fell. A strong wind nnd heavy, rapidly drifting clouds prevailed until past midnight ; but this morning the weather is clear and quite cool.
