HARRISBUR . G,. PA
Monday Evening, October 26, 1863.
The State Election.
In another column we present a fullrecord of
the official returns, from which it will be ob
served that the official majority of Gov. Curtin
is 15,325; and that of Daniel Agnew, far Sti--
preme Judge, 12,402. This majority is on the
home vote. Had the soldiers in, the field been
permitted to vote the majority of our candidates
would reach 75,000 or 100,000, bat they were
disfranchised by a Deinocratic Suprema Court,
who regard the brave veterans good enough to
fight, but refuse them a voice in the election of
their rulers. Although the majority: is not as
large as some persons expected, yet it is large
enough for all practical purposes. •
Both Houses of the Legislature present also
Union majorities, which will enable the friends
of the Union to make an honest apportionment
of the State and elect a Union State Treasurer.
The Victory is complete.
Fifteenth Senatorial District.
The official rote for Senator in this Senatorial
district shows the following result:
LEBANON COUNTY
David Fleming, 13
D. D. Boas, C....
Fleming's majority
DAUPHIN COUNTY
David Fleming, U
D. D. Boas, 0....
Fleming's majority..
Add Lebanon county.
Fleming's majority in the District 2,103
This is the largest majority given to any can
didate since the formation of the district,
Betting on Elections.
We have always been opposed to this species,
of gambling, and have frequently sdvisid our
friends to abstain from betting, yet the Union
men were frequently met by Copperheads of
this city with taunts that they were afraid to .
bet, and consequently a good deal of money was
staked on the result. We hear now that some
of these foul-mouthed Copperheads have given
the stakeholders notice not to give up these bets,
under- the plea that fraud was practiced at the
election, and this plea is made by one who is
well aware that whatever frauds were practised
they were executed by their own Copperhead
friends: We need only point them to the con
duct of the election officers in the First and
Fourth wards of the city of Harrisburg. That
•
enormous frauds were practised by the Copper
heads, there can be no Shadow of doubt. - In,
Philadelphia some half dozen Copperbeads were
arrested for fraudulent voting at the last elec
tion, whilst not a single Union man is specifi
cally charged with violating the election law.
A man is guilty of a mean act when he indices
another to bet or gamble on an election, but he is
certainly meaner than the meanest creature on
the face of the globe if he refuses to pay that
which he has honestly lost.
We shall endeavor to collect alL.the names of
these Copperheade, who made bets on the late
election and now refuse to let the stakeholders
pay over to the winner, and publish them to
the world, so that their neighbors may watch
them henceforth.
Speaking of frauds, we wilr only present one
Copperhead county, which will convince any
honest thinker, that if frauds were committed
they were certainly practised by the Coprr
heads. Read these facts from the Read:ng Jour
nal: . -
"In Barks county, for example, the whole
vote of 1860 and 1863 compares as follows:
Berks—Whole vote, 1863 18,632
Li
" " 1860 17,151
Increafle - 1,481,
—or an average increase of 80 votes in marsh,
district. Now when it is recollected that some
8,000 of our citizens are absent in the army, at
least 2,000 of whom are voters, the.increasein
the late vote is open to suspicion' to say the.
least. Most of the increase is indistricts where
the copperheads polled their heavy majorities.
It is said that in some townships persons under
age were allowed to vote. We infer from the
retarns that at least 1,000 illegal copperhead
votes were polled in Barks, and some 10,000 or
15,000 in the State. The leaders had laid their
plans to carry the election at all hizerds, and
this is why they were so sadly disappointed
at the result.
Our Young Men.
There need be no fear for the fate of the
oountry, says the Washington Chronicle, whose
young men promptly rally for its defi-nce. •By
this we mean no disrespect.* age. It - has
other duties to perform Grey hairs give au
thorny to counsel. When the aged speak kis
for the young to listen . reverently to their
words of wisdom ; and it would be an . evil,
omen for our own glorious republic . . if its ven
erable mentors bad no controlling influence
over its destinies. Bat for aetion, - the young ,
men of a nation are its strength, nd hope, and
history does, not afford an instance in which the
youth of a country have so marvellously ral
lied under the Mpg:id-stained . banner of war,
and become men in fight, its ours have in the
present conflict. One of the Most serious dif
ficulties that have beset the Military int/tort- 1
ties has been the impetuens patriotism of the
youth of the Republic, which has ledao many
"mere boys" to claim a share in flatting for_
its
its defence. Paternal is its character; the
Government has been reluctant to let these
youthful scions encounter the perils' and dan
gers of the field. But no . iirecautions or regu
lations have been found effectual to prevent the
practical display.of :their zeal in the cause of
the Union, and wtinsist that the sign is.,one
of glorious' portent and meaning. It i s
an unquestionage -i evidqnqa that patriotism,
is an innate, inborn principle with our
people. They draw in love .otcountry with
their first nourishment, and •while , . yet their
first intuitions are untainted by self-interest or
unworthy ambitions, their whole " heart and
mind and soul and strength" are as fervently
given to their•corintrr rwthe• Christian's - to - his
Gad. And When they; s oAorth to hattle„it .- Is
with the same unselfushnffflannd fervorthitdg
Linguist' the convert to a religious faith. In
truth, patriotism is their natural religion. They
go fort they "quit themselves men;"
they al; and because of their youth we mourn ,
over them with a sorrew that the_ fall of older
men scarcely excites yet we remember grate:
fully what enthUsiasm their youthful , devotion
excited for the glorious flag of our c:Ountry, and,
while we regret that our victories have so often
Urea purchased at, the price of muck young,
heroic blood, we cannot help feeling at the lame
time that their willing sacrifice of themselves
is the grandest tribute that could possibly be
paid to the vigorous life and progressive genius
of onr country. Young men cannot have sym
pathies with effete, decayed, lifeless institu
tions.
And our living young men yet stand ready to
breast the,torrent of rebellion -,that basZso kite
fully ,o;Verfbined land. They :bave their
future to make, dia they can see no dishonor
greater than, that they-should be found - wanting
in the day of their country's trial. The young
man who fails now can never attain greatuess
and'honor in the eyes of his countrymen herd
after. But the young men of our country do
not fail ns in this grind struggle. The ranks
of the army are full of them, and ever will be,
so long m the President calls for the services of
his countrymen. The three hundred thousand
men now called for will be largely made up of
those whose future !e'en before them. Thou- .
sands of them will come home full of honors,
and will be revered in the next generation as
the heroes of a war waged only to perpetuate
"Union and liberty, one and inseparable, now
and forever."

In addition to the above, we learn from the
Armstrong 4/•ec /if= that-our
_friends in that
rrgion will contest the seat of Mr. Chambers,
the.Coppeniesd_cindidata returned as elected
from the dletrict'of Armstrong and Westmore
land, on the.grOniad of a plurality - of votes in
the'county. Mr. Mee has been made the
choice of the people of that county, and as such
weam see no good reason , why he should not be
allowed to represent•it. It is true Mr. Cham
bers has a majority in the' district by the vote
of Westmoreland; but that that county should
be privileged to say Who and who should not
be our representative, it seems to us as no jus-
tice at all. - It will tie 'recollected that in the
session of '6l; Mr. Ceieuta, of the Bedford Dis
trict, contested the Seat ..of Mr. Householder,
on precisely the same grounds, and it was de
cided in his favor, That this will be the result
in • this casi),,We' 'have not. the shadow of a
dou t.
The same rule will apply-t 6 Franklin and
elect Lieut. NW, by a majority of 173. The
Principle of a: eePairite - representadon was es
tablished by a vote -of both branches of the
Legislature`and strenuously advoCated by lead

now be applied when it operaterregainst them.
BALTIMORE CITY ELECTION.
Baltimore, on Wednesday, held an election
for City Councils, ',malting-in the success of all

We hope the aboye record will convince our
copperhead• friends •that the North is true to
her Self, and will stand by the GOverninent.

Tas Burlington Hawkeye, of Saturday, says:
"From the returns now received we believe
that upon the home vete the copperheads will
have eight, no more, out of the ninety coun
ties composing the State. Counting the sol
diers' vote, they probably, lose every
county except Dubuque, but may possibly-carry

"Dsevim ern, Oct. 3, 1863.
"-The Territorial election, which came off on
the Ist nit., albeit it was hotly contested all
over the Territory, resulted in a uniform un
conditional Union victory., But one eepperhead
was elected to either House. Many sage oalculations
on the influx of sympathizers and refugees from
other States have proven fallacious. Loyal
emigrants ont-numbered them, or they let the
election go by default. At all events, we have
a clean Union Council, House and Territorial
officers from County Judges down to Consta
bles—glory enough for one season. The Legie
!stare will not meet until the first Monday of
February next. It is confidently expeoted teat
it will be the last Legislature under our present
organization, as the • ensuing Congress will
doubtless pass an Enabling act, under which
Colorado will present herself:for admission into
the Union on the first Monday of the ensuing
session. The people , are ripe for it."
