ted by Gov. Brat.= to be observed by the
people of this Commenwealth as an occa-
sion of Thanksgiving for , the numberless
blessings which Providence has been pleas
ed to vouchsafe unto' us during the past
year. And surely no people have gitater
reasons for such. , acknowledgmeni. The
scourge of War, now smiting the nations.
of the East, is unfelt here. Our civil insti
tutions continue to be enjoyed unimpaired,
diffusing around us the blessings of Order,
Civil and Religious Freedom, and general
prosperity. ,Compamtive freedom from
disease---harvests sufficient to - supply • our
wants—lndustry reaping its reward —and
general contentedness among our people—
surely those are blessings challenging sin
cere gratitude, and in view of our number
less individual and ' social sins, tailing
for special Thanksgiving. It is a sublime
spectacle this of a, whole people acknowl,
edging their dependence upon, and oblige•
lions to,the great Ruler of Nations: Rtotn

mouth, the people of the New England
States have been ivant,innually to assem

The Eleet lons.
pzrThe result of the recent elections—
while they show on all sides an overwhelm
ing anti-Nebraska triumph and render it
certain that the popular branch of thonext
Congress Will be strongly ilia-Administra
tion—are still involved in doubt as to some
of the details. We`give the resultitut near
as they ?au now be ascertained
NEW YORK.--The vote for Governor
is very close .between Seymour, the Lo
cofoco Rum candidate, and Clark, the Whig
tendidatti. Seimour,ii probably elected,
although the official returns alone can de
cide the matter. Ulman, the . Know-Noth
ing candidate, runs about 15,000 behind,
polling prolieblY 120,000 votes. This vote
seems to have beau drawn about equally
from the Whigs and. Democrats, leaving
their relative strength about the same.
Of the 38 Congressmen elect but 3 go
for Nebraskaism. Two anti-Nebraska Dem
ocrats are elected—the balime Whigs.
The entire. Whig State ticket, excepting
Governor is 'elected. The Legislatnre is
heavily inti-Nobraska, end for Prohibition.
It is said a majority or the members are
Seward men:- <
hi New •Yorlr City the .Whigtr,'Loces,
and Know Nothings run a close; vote on
City eifte.es:: ,The Locos carry the Mayor,
Recorder. and one of the Altushonse Gev-
eruors; the Whigs have the Surrogate; City
Undge ; District 'Attorney; and Register;
while the Know Nothings take_th&Com
tuissioner of: Streets and Lamps, and the '
other Almshouse Governor. Fernando i
Wood. ttithLoce . Rum candidate for Mayor,
leads Barker, Knew Nothing, over 1200;
but the friends of the latter alledge that
this was accomplished by gross-frauds,
double voting., &e., and Lave resolved to
oontv4.t the election.
NEW JEBSEY.-Tlio in - audit:iv; elect
I to . Congress 'lire as follows : —Clawson,
Robbins., Bishop, and Pennington. Whigs,
and Vail; Loco. The anti-Nebraska ma
jority in the State is over 6.000.
1 The Senate, including these holding over,
will Consist' of 10 Lodes and 10 Whigs and
Americans. In the House there ate 23
Locos,and 37 Whigs„Awericans, and In
, dependents, giving the hater a majority on
joint ballot.
ILLINOIS.--The anti-Nebraska major
' ity in the State is very.
,large. The Con
gressmen elect are Washburn, Morton,
IKnoz, Williams, Yates, Whigs , ;
,Words r
worth, Know Nothing; and Trumbull, anti
Nebraska.. Democrat,'" Two districts in
doubt. Legislature anti-Nebraska., The
I "Little Giant" and his N,ebraska swindle
are repudiated by his own State. Among
the defeated candidates for Congress is
Richardson, Douglas' Lieutenant-general
in the Douse,. who piloted the Nebraska
hill through that body.
P. Si A despatch received at ,Washing
ton says the Nebraskaites have saved four
j Congressmen, including Richardson. Son.
t ry if it be true.
WISCONSIN.--In the, 'first Congres
sional district; : Wells. anti-Nebraska dem.,
ie re-elected; in the other two, Washburn
and Bellinghttrit, Republicans, are sup
posed to be elected.
MIC Ingham, free-Boiler, is
elected. Governor of this State by a large
majority. over Barry, dom. Messrs. How
ard. Waldron, Walbridge and Wisner, fu
sionists. are elected to Congress. The anti-
Nebraska majority in Detroit is from 200
to 400, a democratic loss of over 2,000
oilier) 1852. The Legislature is decidedly
of the same politics.
MASSACHUSETTS.—The most' as
totffiding feature in the recent elections is
the result in' Massachusetts, where the
Know Nothings have over-slaughed every
thing in the 'hope of old political organi
sations. The democracy seem to have gone
over to them en masse. The Whigs en
deavored to make a stand, but are soundly
beaten at all points. The entire :Whig
delegation in Congress is defeated, save one
who was also adopted by the Know-No
things. The latter, conscious of their
strength, ran separate tickets fore State oIL
oea, , and also. in every Congressional and
Legislative district.' The result is a. clean
sweep. The vote for Governor, as far as
heard from, stands thus : Gardner, Know-
Nothing,lo,o72 ; Washburne, Whig, 26,,
167; Bishop,' Dem. 1 8913; Wilson, Re
publican;'6,4ll.l ; Wales.+Bl3; all others
747. :Majority for Gardner over all, 31,-
035. In the city of Boston thevoto'stood :
Gardner. 7.706, Washburne 4183, Bishop
1212, and IViliton.B36, .

the publiewill then judge whether we have
or have not good•cause to claim the Canal

of the American cause. First we repeat
that Col, Mott wee the regular nominee of
the Know Nothing Order, having reoeived
a majority of 12,000 over Spicer, the "Na

Secondly, we inform all who wish to
know, that the Grand Secretary of said Or
der issued a regular official certificate to
all the subordinate Couneile in the State,
that, ''agreeably' to a resolution 'of the
Grand Coutibit in the State, requiring him
to do to, he thereby certifies that, among
the candidates f4r State. offices before the
people of Pensylvania, the following are
members of the Order in good t& regu
lar standing—for Governor, James Pol

Thirdly, we say that, upon the strong,
conclusive evidenct of Col. Mott's Ameri
canism, he received 120,000 votes in-Penn

der any oilier circumstances.
Now, gentlemen, make the most you can
out of it. Hero is our evidence that Col.
Mott is or , was a member of Mat muds a-
Limed Order, in good. and rrgutar *land
ing. Now give us disinterested proof that
ho never was a member. His own denial .
is no proof, only a self-interested assertion.
We believe , the truth of the certificate of
Alm grand Secretary until it is proven
to be false. Therefore, we cannot change
our firm belief that Mr. Mott ,is, or was a
member, andothat for the purpose of secu
ring a certain position in the Canal Board,
LO control appointments, or for some other
purpose, he now denies his connexion,with
said order.
Should it appear in the end, however,
that Mott never identified himself with
the Know Nothings, as alleged, then have
120,000 voters been most outrageously de
ceived. This, in the face of ; the above
facts, we cannot believe until wo have bet

Hon. T. 'Stevens kJ. S. S enator.
The selection of an United States Sena

March next, devolve,. upon our 'State Le
gislattire at' its coming session. As the re.
cent political canvass has resulted in the
election to that. body of a Inajoilty who
sy.opethize in political sentiment with the
Hon. THADEIni STEVENS, It would be very
gratifying to hiS - immerous friends and ad
tinkers, in Lancaster county, throughout
the State and the nation, to see hint seleot•
ed for that distinguished position.
There, is no thlit in the State whose se
lection would gratify so many or...gratify
theni sottnuoh. As distingtkished forjer-
Sonal agreeability or for talents, big dilltply
attached friends in Lanitaster county and
in Adams may be reckoned by thousands.—
Since h s political career commenced, there
has no Whig name been so prominent as
'
tt.
his throughout the- Wa'i ; and with but
one opinion'of hrt.abiliti , or of the fear-.
leeriness, reliability, truth loess or gener
osity of his character. ''•-i l , -
In suggesting Mr. Stevens"lwtme for
this Senatorial office, some review of his
.
past political career will be approprtate.
His firat public services were in our
State Legislature to which he was elected
several successive years from the county of
Adams. Th 6 most prominent measure as
sociated with his name, was the 'establish
ment of our Common School system.
Although the excellence of our schools,
Moto the adoption of this memento, and the
influence of our example, has been bright
in inducing the surrounding States to en
gage in it, Pennsylvania herself was re
blatant to commence it. An act was pass
ed übout the session of 1838-84, to make
the means of education free to all, by an
appropriatiofito the several districts from.
the treasury of the commonwealth, provi
ded that each district would levy upon
themselves a corresponding amount. The
propriety of the measure seemed so obvious
to thebLegislature when it was-first presen
ted that it readily, paned that - body with
but little ciisonssion or objection.
But the State appropriation and the lo
cal taxation for this purpose were new bur
dens to be borne before the - benefits Could
be witnessed. , A general murmur' 110012
dtese against the new tax. - The public
rapidly grew exulted and the measure in
creased in °CHUM. The feeling reached the
point with many who declared that they
had no liberty with such an odious com
pulsion upon them, to contribute to other's
instruction. When the °timing elections
were held many members of the previouk
session wore refused a re-elections by. their
constituents on account of their support of
thisl measure. Others wore re-elected on
their premise to change their action and
exert themselves for its repeal. 'And when
the legislature convened, it received:peti
tions signed briihrec forty thousand citizens
against the enactment, while ' but small
numbers could be' found to ask' that it
might stand. ' - . - -
-
A Senate and House'so elected and pe
titioned were rapidly complying with these
outside influences. Mr. Wolfe, who was
then Governor of the ConiMonwealth; ex
erted himself for the law with the „weight of
Executive influence. He nobly . and feat'.
1

pose dhe would veto it, ann abide th e con-
Bop' nces: Yet a bill for • its • repeal, did
pass the'Senate-by a: vote of twenty and
upwards to eight---aud it bad passed to the
second reeding in the House WI inajori ,
ty of seventeen, when Mr. Stevens', agen
cy in the movement was awakened to its
full energy. •
I admit that an orator could not have
more favorable cireumatances to'act, under.
The present utility; excellence and popu
larity of the schools; free to all the child
hood and youth' of this two millions of peo
ple, still increasing,'-attest the. greatnees
of the interests then pending. The con
sciousness that the emergency was Inver tant—that it was pres Sing—and that he
was adequate to it—made the occasions for
the genius of eloquence:' '
It had happened thut Mr. Stevens was
absent from the Capitol the few days which
had been occupied by the Senate and
House in so far repealing this law. The
earnestueSs with which his feelings were
enlisted in the subject was well known ;
and as it wad diridenitooli that he would a
vail himself of the first' opportunity., to
speak upon the question, the members of
the Senate and numbers of other citizens
were in attepdanee 4
A motion was made by him to amend
the repealing bill, so as to nullify it. It
was on this amendinent he addressed the
House. The quality of the speech may be
judged by its results. Mr. Stevens is an
acccomplished rhetorician, and a ,brilliant
declaimer. _ But these qaalities are wino•
ticed by his audience in their atttention to
his convincing argument and absorption in
his earnest feelings. On this occasion all
present deemed their ideal of eloquence re
alisied. Their conviction and their delight
wore freely expressed. The admiration
amounted to enthusiasm. - -6
Several 'umbers of that body who had
voted, for the repeal, came directly to, and I
assured him that they would vote for his
amendment at whatever political sacrifice
it might cost them. The atuandment was
easily carried—was taken to the Senate
for concurrence, and although it, annulled
the bill which had just been passed by that'
body by so largo a vote. The convictions
awakened by his speech were acted upon,
and a vote still to, retain the school law
was recorded iu that body also by a weigh
ty majority. This scene at the Capitol
immediately became the topio of interest
throughout the State. The news of the
speech, its unusual. eloquence and effect,
produced a sensation everywhere. It was
published by all the presses of the coup
monwealth, with the same results front the
perusal that followed, the delivery. Pub
lie sentiment changed. The law became
as popular as it had been odious. Some
citizens of Barks, to express their appreci
ation of the speech, printed it upon satin
and presented it to the orator. Members,
of the legislature who supposed: that .they
wore defying their constituents in, suataiu.-
hag the measure, upon return to their homea
found themselves approved 1-and the en
thusiastio popularity which the law then
acquired wan but a suitable prelude to the
quieter but deopersatittfitotion of the public
under its operation.
There is no speaker now living who has;
achieved as difficult, as ,complete and as
splendid a revolution in legislation and in
public opinion. The sensation produced
in. England by the publication . of Burke's
reflections,of the French Revolution, and'
the equal sensation produced- in America
by Webster'a reply to
• ilayne—the two
greatest natural triumphs of modern'
qdonee—Were not more difficult suoeeesos .
than this achievement , of Thaddeus Stevens. I

His friends thoiight his 'firmness - admira

The animositiee of that discussion wore

they had previously.been very friendly. --
Mr. Calhoun refused an introduction to

years, and Mr. Webster had declared him
Moat eloquent advocate in , the "coun

by' the head and shoulders ;" - and Mr.
Stevens had expresied his recognition of
Mr. Webster's great qualities as warmly ;
yet when Mr. 'Webster made his Ist -of
,March speech Mr. Stevens commented
upon it to his friends with a severity that
was intended to ''produce an alienation.--
Civaitierbetween them were angrily sus
, pended by both ; and from that date on,
they met and passed each other as stran
gers. It was everywhere a very unpleas
ant controversy. It was too much an
alienation between old political friends.—
But as 'the question has passed, the party
alienations shall be. forgot. •
The writer of this was a supporter of
'the Compromise ; bulbs admits for him
self that it was never one of the plainest
questions of potion{ expediency. There
wall no reason 'for the hostility' of the
South to the admission of California. It
wits nothing but temper. It 'was known
by all, when that fugitive slave law was
passed that it would be useleis—that the
North would not execute it, nor in fact
did the South wish their runaways.—

It one arty must yield, the North, as the •
strongest, call do it with the least violation
of seetfonal dignity. But these whims of
the South came rather too often for South
ern dignity or Northern self-respect.—
This Nebraska bill has been once too
much for all of us. Why so violate North
ern feelings , with their useless measures?
When Mr. Douglas introduced the Ne
braska bill, he said that it would put the
Compromise of 1820 in harmony with
the Compromise of 1850. This,waitnie.
Now the Compromise of 1850 was never
such a measure in the estimation of any
man as to snake it advisable for Senators
to putthemselves out of the way to make
other measures in harmony with it. •
• Mr. Stevens, although laboring in a mi
nority, grew'rapidly in distinction during
his Congressional emerge. When the
New York Evening Post was reproached
by some friends of Mr. Seward for not
publishing his speech against the Compro
mise, it replied ;that it bad thought Mr.
Stevens' an abler one, and hail published
that. The Independent, very able
religious newspaper of New York, 'edited
by Henry Ward Beecher and others, pub
lished the conclusion of that speech, and
called its readers' attention to it as a ape
chnen of eloquence. Mr. Greely publish
ed in the Tribune that "there would be no
dissent from the opinion that he was the -
ablest Whig in the House of Represen
tatives;" (and Stevens of Georgia, it Whig,
was abler than any democrat there.)— •

Ne. Sickles to Washington, for instruc

on behalf of American interests as likely
to be affected by it. The Administration
had Meantime been watching the prhgress

The Arctle--Coineldents and

Three or four days before the news of, the
Artic's loss reached NevF; York, n man
.Came into Mr. Collins' office in 'a state of
.great excitement, and said that the Arctic
was wrecked—that only thirty of het pas
senger"
,were saved, and that his breaker,
who was on board, had been lost. He
was Ito much excited about it, and proved
Foutunanagable, that he was dismissed as
easy person.
A' person who had'a relative or. board the
Arctic, went down to the wart on Sunday
when, ,sloa became ;dye ' and was a little

by. the Arctic, acting merely from indef

tieing very earnest and explicit. The la
dies having several friends on bon4did
embark on that vessel; but the fact that
ahe load not complied with her husband's
wishes so weighed upon the lady's mind
that she was painfully apprehensive the
whole voyage, and was especially impress
ed with the tolling of the alarm bell •on
Bell Buoy in the Irish Channel. Both

The Due de Gammont, who was lost in
the Arctic, had made arrangements for
sailing in anether steamer,. a considerable
time previous to his departure for the

however, detained him. He then engaged
tin sail in atilt another vessel than the

the ship that was to bear Hui to his tomb.
It is curious that Captain Luce was
