PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION
The Union. Triumph Decisive
We find it impossible to give definite re
turns of the election held on Tuesday last
but sufficient is known to state the result as
follows, viz:
A MAJORITY ON THE HOW! VOTE!
A UNION MAJORITY, BY ADDING THE
SOLDIERS' TO THE HOME VOTE, OF
AT LEAST 20,000.
SIXTEEN MEMBERS OF CONGRESS CER
TAIN, AND WITH THE SOLDIERS'
VOTE EIGHTEEN.
A MAJORITY IN THE STATE SENATE.
We have at least 18 members of the Senate
without the soldiers' vote, and when that is re
ceived we expect to record the triumphant
election of two additional members.
A LARGE MAJORITY IN THE HOUSE.
We have returns sufficient to announce the
eleetion of 61 members of the House of Rep
resentatives.
This is sufficient for all purposesf and
secures the election of
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
VICTORY : VICIICORY S S VICTORY
The Burning of Powder and a Grand Cop
perheatl Rejoicing.
There is something'as facetious in the im.
pertinence of a genuine copperhead, as there
is something audacious in the courage of a
hide-bound traitor. The one fights as boldly
in a bad cause, as the other sneakingly seeks
its triumph; and however soundly both may
be drubbed, however terribly the one may be
lashed with the fury of war, and the other
crushed by the sublime power of the ballot
box,both are as ready to shout victoryin defeat,
as they are to lie and cheat, and resort to foul
means to secure success. As an evidence of
thislaudapity and hypocritical facetiousness,
we need only point to the exhibitions made by
the copperheads in this city yesterday. The
elite of copperheadism joined hands with its
lower orders, and both went on a magnificent
drunk. That's the word, reader, Drunk ! They
wasted whisky and burned powder. During
the morning, the walls of the building in
which the organ is printed, was placarded
with gambling invitations, and when these
were responded to by some of our more ex
citable Union mon, there was a mournful
sound of emptyness in the pocket of every
copperhead bluffer. '
The firing of a salute, however, was the
most cunningly devised trick of all those re
sorted to by the copperheads, to keep up their
courage. A friend sought an explanation
of the salute, but he could elicit nothing sat
isfactory, and therefore came to the conclu
sion that the powder was burned in honor of
Phil. Sheridan's successful hunt for copper
heads on Sunday last. Some of the more sa
gacious cops, when interrogated as to the
burning of powder, coolly replied, "for the
Union."
—Now that the smoke of copperhead" pow
der has been lifted, and a clear view is given
of the field, we have leisure, while the cops
bury their dead, to sum up the results of the
Union victory, as follows :
THE DEFEAT OF W. H. MILLER!
THE REDEMPTION OF THE XlVis CON
GRESSIONAL DISTRICT!
EIGHTEEN UNION MEMBERS OF CON
GRESS!
A MAJORITY IN BOTH BRANCHES OF
THE LEGISLATURE !
A MAJORITY ON THE HOME VOTE!
To which will be added at least TWENTY Tnotr-
SAND soldiers' votes, cast at the election held in
the field.
This grand victory is certainly worth the
powder burned by the copperheads, and after
their demonstration of yesterday, we have
hopes that more brimstone will be devoted to
the victory we intend to win in November.
Tax Powona BURNED BY min Cors, while
Sentra salute,of cheer to their friends in the
South, was paid for by Col. R. J. Haldeman,
who boasts that he never paid a dollar of in
come tax—who refused to contribute a penny
to the support of the soldier's family, and
who has but one victory to glory over, namely,
the defeat of an effort to organize a battalion
in this city to resist rebel invasion. Gay
Richard I ain't he?
The Efforts of an Agent of Foreign Prin
ces and Foreign Bankers to Control the
Pennsylvania Elections.
It is now fixed beyond all contradiction,
that the money which the Copperhead State
Central Committee disbursed during the can
vass for the election held on Tuesday last,
came directly through Mr. Augustus Belmont,
as It contribution of the Princes, Aristocracies
and speculators in Europe, who have so long
been plotting the overthrow and extinction of
civil and religious liberty in the United States.
The fact is well established, that 111 r. Belmont
sent one check of a hundred Thousand dollars to the
city of Philadelphia, while his agents in the coun
ties bordering on the New York State line, were
busy distributing money to corrupt the masses
wherever that means was deemed necessary to car
ry a candidate. The money used by the copper
head leaders, in the late campaign in the
State, was originally intended for disburse
ment in the South,, to support the rebel arms,
but was attracted from that purpose, in the
hope that its expenditure in Pennsylvania
would effect more important objects for the
foreign holders of Confederate securities, by
securing a political triumph for the treason
sympathizers in the north.
—These facts should at once, arouse the
spirit of every freeman in the State of Penn
sylvania, to meet the further attempts of Mr,
Belmont, as the agent of Foreign Brokers, to
secure the corruption of the people of the
north, in order that political victories may be
won favorable to the cause of treason' in the
south. The game being thus uncovered, the
Union men of the State know exactly what to
do to counteract the influence of foreign,
gold in the American ballot-box. Falling in
the south, to uphold the rebel cause —failing
on the ocean to secure the sway of rebel
pirates—failing in a fair fight, to overwhelm
the freemen of the Union battling for the
safety of the Government, these miserable
foes of the Union have also failed in their
attempt to control and corrupt the ballot-box.
It will require but one more effort, and we
will have conquered our enemies alike all
over the world.
The Effects of a Collapse.
Should the National arms continue to make
progress against the rebellion at the rate of
the last few weeks, we are warned by the ef
fect of our latest victories to look for a col-
lapse of the bubble which speculation has in
flated, so precipitate as to produce, in all
probability, an extensive crash in commercial
affairs. With a view to that : more than pos
sible contingency, we desire to point attention
to two or tip ee faCts which argue that thee
fects of such a catastrophe, at the present
time, must be very much circumscribed and
different from those experienced in former
crises of the same kind.
1. The working classes, cannot suffer, now,
as under ordinary circumstances, from the
reduction of industrial operations and the loss
of employment, consequent upon a general
derangement of business—because labor is
too scarce. The labor market is but barely
supplied with the hands which are absolutely
required to keep the, country fed and clothed,
and which must, therefore, under any condi
tion, be kept employed.
2. People are more generally out of debt
than ever before in the history of the country.
Old debts have been paid off to an immense
extent, during the past three years of abund
ant currency, high prices and high wages,
while few new ones have been incurred. Mer
chants have made cash purchases more largely
than ever before, farmers have cleared off
mortgages from their farms, mechanics from
their houses and lots--pecuniary independ
ence is the rule among all classes, and the fail
ure of one cannot involve the ruin to others
which it usually does,
3. Workingmen, with their large earnings,
have saved more, in spite of the high cost of
living, than formerly, as shown by the im
mense increase of deposits in the savings'
banks. With the appreciation of currency,
consequent upon a downfall of gold, their
savings will grow in substance upon their
hands, making them really richer by the con
sequences of a financial crisis, rather than
poorer.
The plain argument from these unquestion-
able facts is, that a collapse ensuing now must
prove materially disastrous to very few beyond
speculators, whom it will be impossible to
commiserate much, while the mass of the
people are likely to feel it only beneficially, in
a fall of mated prices.
The Vice President of the Confedera y
on Secession.
We cannot too often invite the attentimof
the people generally to the remarks of the
Hon. A. H. Stephens, the present Vice Presi
dent of the Southern Confederacy. Val ; vtdig
hamites, Pughites and Pendletonians, read it
for yourselves. We quote as follows from his
great speech. It declares his opinions and
hurls the doctrine of Secession with shame
into the face of its advocates in the North.
He said:
NOW, FOR YOU TO ATTEMPT TO OVER
THROW SUCH A GOVERNMENT AS THIS
UNDER WHICH WE HAVE LIVED FOR
MORE THAN THREE-QUARTERS OF A
CENTURY-IN WHICH WE HAVE GAINED
OUR WEALTH, OUR STANDING AS A NA
TION, OUR DOMESTIC SAFETY, WA - FUR
THE ELEMENTS OF PERIL ARE AROUND
US, WITH PEACE AND TRANQUILITY,
ACCOMPANIED WITH UNBOUNDED
PROSPERITY, AND RIGHTS UNASSAIL
ED-IS THE HEIGHT OF MADNESS, FOL
LY AND WICKEDNESS, TO WHICH I CAN
NEITHER LEND MY SANCTION NOR MY
VOTE.
Here is another extract from the same
speech, that contradicts the assertion of the
Butternuts, that the South was driven into
retaliation because of the encroachments of
the North:
WHAT RIGHT HAS THE NORTH ASSAILED?
WHAT 31ITTICE HAS BEEN DENIED? AND WHAT
MATH FOUNDED IN JUSTICE AND , RIGHT HAS
BUN WITHHELD ? CAN EITHER OF YOl7 TO-DAY
NAME ONE SINGLE ACT OR WRONG DELIBERATELY
AND PURPOSELY DONE BY THE GOVERNMENT AT
WASHINGTON OF . WHICH THE SOUTH HAS 'A
RIGHT TO com:PLAZ ? I CHALL'EGE THE ANSWER.
VAIIANDIGHAM, as Commander-in-Chief of
the Western conspirators, was simply p r erform-
Mg the functions of his ogles when'he took
command of the Chicago Convention. A se
secret council of "the Sons of Liberty" and
that delectable conclave of Copperheads are
as much alike as " as twin cherries on a single
stem."
Hear the Words of a Soldier.
General Roseerans, who probably under
stands the present condition of affairs, as well
as any man in the army, says
Whenever they (the rebels) have the power,
they drive before them into their ranks the
Southern people, as they would also drive us.
Trust them not. Were they able, they would
invade and destroy us without mercy. AB
SOLUTELY ASSURED OF THESE THINGS,
I AM AMAZED THAT ANY ONE COULD
THINK OF "PEACE ON ANY TERMS."
HE WHO ENTERTAINS THE SENTIMENT
IS FIT ONLY TO BE A SLAVE ; HE WHO
UTTERS IT AT THIS TIME IS, MORE
OVER, A TRAITOR TO HIS COUNTRY,
WHO DESERVES THE SCORN AND CON
TEMPT OF ALL HONORABLE MEN.
Those who gabble about a compromise will
do well to peruse these lines with care and
attention. They contain the assertions of a
hero who has been at the front since the
war began, and has perilled everything in be
half of his country.

Dispatches have been received to-day from

since my last telegram are reported.
The following details of the cavalry en
gagement last Sunday are furnished by Gen.
Sheridan:
I have seen no sign of the enemy since the
brilliant engagement of the 9th inst. It was
a square cavalry fight, in which the enemy
was routed beyond any power to describe. He
lost everything carried on wheels, except one
piece of artillery, ant when he was last seen
it was passing over Rude's Hill, near New
Market, on the full run, twenty-six miles from
the battle-field, to which point the pursuit
was kept up. The batterymen and horses,
etc., were captured. The horses were in good
condition, but were all exchanged by our cav
alrymen for their broken-down animals. The
casualties of the 9th will not exceed sixty men.
