The Election.
The smoke of battle has cleared away,
and we are now able to see distinctly what
ia the result of the late election. In the
Tiret place, it mav not be amits to say that
Abraham Lincoln God bless him ! and
Andrew Johnson, the champions of Union
and Freedom, arc triumphantly elected
President and Vice President, respective
ly, of the United States, for a term of four
years commencing the 4th of March next.
They have a majority of nearly 400,000
on the popular vote, and a majority of
192 in the Electoral College. The fol
lowing are the States which have gone
Union, with their electoral vote, and the
majority given by each :

I'y these figures, it appears that in all
the Stales (except possibly Tennessee and
Louisiana) now voting for President, oar
candidates have a majority of 38o,500 on
the popular vote, and 213 electoral votes
to the opposition 21. The same States in
1SG0 gave 138,704 against Lincoln, al
though he had 16S electoral votes to 49
fi.r all others. The entire Vote in 1860
was Union, 1,864,523; Democratic, 1,
723,099. What do jou think of the ex
hibit, ye who have been preaching that
Aba Lincoln is a usurper, and that the
voice of the people would not sustain him
in the efforts. he has made and is making
to save the Union ?
In Pennsylvania, wc have done. nobly
Large Union gains are reported from
nearly every county, and it is certain that,
f rom a mere nominal figure in October,
our majority on the home vote will reach
15,000. The soldiers' vote will increase
this to 30,000 beyond doubt.
. In New York, we have made tremendous
gains. In I860, the Democratic majority
was 50,000 ; now the Union majority is
8,500. But best of all, Governor Seymour,
the vilest of all vile copperheads, is beaten
for Governor by Reuben E. Fenton, Union,
by about 9,000 votes. This is of itself a
triumph second only to the re-election of
Lincoln.
In the Nqw England States, we increase
our aggregate majority 20,000 votes over
the majority of 1860.
- Maryland four years
Democmtic majority;

now sho gives

Ohio. Indiana, Iliiuois, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Minnesota and Iowa in 1860
g?ve us an aggregate majority of 96,000;
now they give U3 178,00.0.
In 18G0, Missouri gave a Democratic
majority of 131,000 ; now she gives a ma
jority for the other side of 5,000.
Xew Jersey, Delaware and Kentucky
(M'C'.ellan's forlorn hope) four years ago
gave a Democratic majority of 156,000 ;
now they only give 30,500.
With regard to Congressmen, the New
York Tribune say there U no doubt, we
have secured the requisite majority of
two-thirds in the House whereby Slavery
is to be abolished and forever prohibited
throughout the Union.
' Header, you haye a summary of the
'rcVult before you. Does it not t.eaoh you
that it i the will of che People that the
War ukall go on until Treason i3 absolutely
annihilated, and traitor." in arms humbled?
If it does not tvach you this, it teaches
you nothing. Let us tberefore permit no
further division of counsel or of effort, but
united to a man, let the entire loyalty of
the Nation rush forward to the saving-of
the Government and the restoration of
peace and harmony, and soon a peace
worth the having will crown our victorious
eagles.
O-yez! O-yez ! O-yez!

General M'Clellan. It is certain
that one week ago General M'Clellan
forwarded his resignation to Washington.
In connection with this fact, it is rumored
from "Washington that the resignation will
not be accepted, but that the General will
be assigned to au active position in the
field a rumor that derives some plausi
bility from the fact that the President has
not yet accepted his resignation.. It is
understood that tho policy of calling the
General into the field is warmly supported
by politicians and others, who, from their
relations with the President, are supposed
to have influence with, him. It is urged
that the act of giving the General a com
mand would do much to unite the North
in active and earnest support of the Gov
ernment, and that 'the step would be
equally wise, whether viewed in a political
or a military light. ; .
It b not known, however, how the
President views the question, though it is
argued that the fact that ho has uoc ac
cepted of the General's resignation affords
fairground for inference as to his incli
nations. . ;
- Tue report that General Sherman has
burned Atlanta, and is new marching di
rectly on Charleston, South Carolina, is
untrue.. On the contrary, he retains a
firm grasp on that city, and is abundantly
able to hold it against all odds that can
be brought ta bear against him. By the
way, the Rebel Secretary of War Seddon,
in hia late annual report, acknowledges
that the fall of Atlanta was a "serious re
verse," "but, then," aids he, "of course
we'll recapture it Bonis of these days, and
then ourgoose'll hang high as ever again!''

Speech by the 1'resident.
The evening after the election, Presi
dent Lincoln was serenaded at the White
House by an immense concourse-of his
friends. In response to repeated calls, he
appeared at a window, and said:
"It has long been a grave question
whether any Government not too. strong
for the liberties of the people can be strocg
enougn to maintain its own existence m
great emergencies. On this point the
present rebellion brought our Repuohc to
a severe test, and a 1'residential election
occurring in regular course during the
rebellion, added not a little-' tp the strain
If the loyal people, united, were put to the
utmost of their strength by the rebellion,
must they not fall when divided and
partially paralyzed by a political war
anions; themselves? Rut the election was
a necessity. We caunot have free Gov
ernment without elections, and if the
rebellion could force us to forego or post
pone a national election, it might fairly
claim to have' already conquered and
ruined U3. The strife of the election is
but human nature practically applied to
the facta of tho case. What has occurred
in thi3 ca?e must ver occur in similar
cases. ' Human nature will not change.
In any future great national trial, com
pared with the men of this, we shall have
as weak and as strong, as silly and as wise,
as bad and as good. Let us, therefore,
study tho incidents of this, as philosophy,
to learn wisdom from, and none of them as
wrongs to be revenged. (Cheers.)
"Rut the election, along with its inci
dental and undesirable strife, has done
good too. It has demonstrated that a
people's government can sustain a national
electiou in the midst of a great civil war.
(Renewed cheers.) Until now it has not
been known to the world that this was a
possibility. It shows also how sound aud
how stronsr we still are.' It shows that
even among the candidates of the same
party, he who i moat devoted io the
Union, and most opposed to treason, can
receive most of the people's votes (Cheers.)
It shows also, to the extent yet known,
that we have more men now than we had
when the war began. Gold is very good
in its place, but living, brave and patriotic
men are better than gold. (Cheers and
other demonstrations of applause.) Rut
the rebellion continues, and now that the
election is over, may not all having a com
mon interest reunite in a common effort to
save the common country? (Cheers.) Vox
my own part, I have striven and shall
strive to avoid placing any obstacles in the
way. (Cheers.) So long as I have been
here I have not willingly planted a thorn
in any man's bosom. While I am duly
sensible of the high compliment of a re
election, and duly grateful as I trust to
Almighty 'God for having directed my
country to a right conclusion as I think
for their good, ic adds nothing to my
satisfaction that any other man may be
disappointed by tho result. (Cheers.) May
I ask those who have not differed with me
to join with me in this same spirit toward
those who have ? And now let me close
by asking three hearty cheers for our
brave soldiers and seamen, and their gal
lant and skillful commanders."

Jefferson Davis's Talk.
The Rebel Congress met' in . Kichmond
on Monday, 7th inst., fend received the
usual - address from Mr. Jefferson Davis.
It is rather a' mild document, Mr. Davis
having apparently recovered from the
frenzy of frankness into which he fell on
his late Southern toun At present ne
wears a face of checrfulnessi and whistles
with shrill good spirits through three
columns or bo of a dingily printed Rich-
mond paper.
Ile rejoices, as he has reason, over sue-
cesses in the trans-Mississinni Department:
the re-conouest and for some time perma-
boast'of ; the' repossession of parts of Mis
sissippi; Northern -Alabama and Western
Tennessee,' is rather loosely ainrmea. it
is allied that all incursions upon the
. . . . . i -r .
seaboard have been prevented, save at
Mobile; that Grant has vainly tried fonr
months to take Petersburg; that feneridan
had to ' burn the i Shenandoah Valley
because he could nt hold it; , that the
capture of Atlanta has proved a barren
conaucst to Sherman. I Mr. Davis consid
ers that the small results obtained by the
possession of Atlanta ousrht to convince
the Southern people that no place is of
much real importance. ' and he soberly
seeks to persuade them that even Rich-
inond may be surrendered checriuuy.
" Tliere are no vital points on the pieserva-
tion of which the continued existence of
r.bp ("Jnnfederacv deoeuds. 7 here is no
military success or the enemy tchich can ac
comvlish its destruction. Not the fall of
T. 1 !T M " l MU1c.
menmonu. nor vv umiugiuii, uui vuaiin-
ton, nor Savannah, nor Mobile, nor ot all
combined," can do more than protract the
exhaustion of the isorth ! It would seem
Mr. Davis desires to anticipate thp effect
of expected losses of these places.
It is complained that loreign powers
are still neglectful to recognize the Confed
eracy. Historical suggestions for their
enlightenment, precedents which prove
that France and England might recognize
if they would, Mr. D. is not sparing of.
A brief view is given of Rebel finances,
which we still further condense as follows:
Reeeinta for the two quarters

Ant. nnnrotiriationa for six

Which it is thought may be paid
out of balance of unexpended
annronriations to Jan. 1. 1865.
viz . 467,416.504
Concerning which rose-colored, exhibit
of economy in expenses it is ony necessa
ry to remark that the Rebel W ar uepart
ment has found it cheap and profitable to
supply itself mainly by wholesale stealing,
and has, therefore, little use fcr cash to
pay accruing bills.
Touching the conduct ot the war, Jir
Davis is of opinion that too many men are
still exempted from conscription, that a
ereneral militia 1-rw is needed though
under the central system of Richmond it
is difficult to 6ee what is left to be inclu
ded in militia, unless it be the women of
the Southern States and that lurtber
consolidation of depleted regiments should
be effected. Military supplies and pro
visions are declared to be abundant
The treatment of prisoners is adverted
to, aud this man has the effrontery to re
peat the lie that Rebels in our hands
suffer from want of adequate food, fuel,
and clothing, but not even he has the
effrontery to deny the horrible accounts
of tho cruelty, the robbing, the starving,
the murdering of our brave soldiers in
Southern prisons. Let ua hope if we
can hope anything on this point that the
arrangemeut recently proposed by Lee
and acceded to by Gen.. Grant, for the
transmission of supplies, may be carried
out on their part with something less than
the usual trickery and bad iaith.
Mr. Davis is opposed to the general
levy and arming of slaves in aid of the
Rebellion on the ground that the time is
not vet come, and because such a disposi
tion of the blacks'would interfere with the
beneficent scheme of Christianizing the
African race now proceeding on the plan
tations in accordance with that Divine
intention whereof the lash, the fetter,
unrequited toil, and indiscriminate prosti
tution pt the women ot the race art made
the instrument and means I
Finally, there can be no peace save by
recognition of the independence of the
Confederacy.

Judge Advocate General Holt'p review
of the testimony in relation to a great
consniracv in the West, under the auspices
of what was termed "The Order of Amer
ican Knights" or "Sons of Liberty" has
attracted, perhaps, more attention tuan any
other document civen to the Americau
people during the progress of the slave-
holders' rebellion From a mass of volu-
mioous .testimony, Judge Advocate IIo!t
has condensed the history of an attempt at
- -
rebellion winch, in an its iearures, is.iar
in the South.- It was introduced into the
bnrdpr Western States, for the purpose- of
aflording a nucleus around which the dis
affected and reckless politicians of those
sections could rally, ana, wnen iuuy
organized, precipitate rebellion, anarchy
and death in every defenceless community
in the free States. ' Judge Advocate Holt
uncovers the plot fully in bis reports lie
shows that the ro7ing bands ot guerrillas
that infested Tennessee, Kentucky, Mis-
A. 1 . .' . .1
souri ana .ant ansa?, were .cuuipueu
entirely, of members of this order, who,
when the country was clear of Union
troops, emerged from their concealment
to ravage and desolate the -homes of the
deienceiess, ana- wno, wnen a reuei mice
appeared in the neighborhood, were always
prepared to anord miormation or coniriD-
ute material assistance. These guerrillas,
in atrocity and heartlessness of conduct,
exceeded the blood ihirsty cruelty ol the
regularly organized rebel armies and but
for the timely exposure made of their
operations by the report of the Judge
Advocate, the organization would have
extended into every btate of the Union,
and imperilled the lives of every family in
the loyal States. The bt. Albans robber
ies and assassinations are but a dim idea
of what the Sons of Liberty contemplated ;
and for their speedy suppression we have
only the vigor and the promptness of the
Government to thank.
Judge Advocate Holt's report will
some day form a' most important chapter
in the history of the country. The studeut
of sacred history now turns with horror
from the revelation of the foul treachery
of Iscariot, and the contemplation of the
record of Catiline's bloody deeds fills every
heart with dismay but when peace anords
the student time to ponder the able report
of the Judge Advocate, the horror and the
dismay elicited by the perusal ot the Jew
ish traitoi'a deeds and the Roman's treach-
ery, win give way to me inaignanou
created by the relation ot the mlamous
treason thus iccorded by Nr. Holt.
The Crops for the Year 1SG4.
The final report (September and Octo
ber') of the crops lor the present year has
just been made by tne Agricultural Ue
partmcnt at ashmgton. 1 be returns are
uow full, and what were hitherto but
estimates assume the character ot ascer
tained quantities. The wheat crop amounts
to 1G0.C95,823 bushels. It takes about
five bushels of wheat to make a barrel of
flour, which would make the production
equal to thirty-three and a half millions
barrels, or more than one and a halt bar
rels to every one cf the population of
twenty millions whose industry produced
it. The production of wheat is only about
nine millions less than iu 1SG3, which was
considered an excellent crop.
The rye production was l9,Si2,l)5i
bushels, or less than one million short of
the production of the previous year.
Barley 10, lb,oi.i, about tho same decrease
as rye in tue year s -proaucuon. uais,
176,GU0,0G4 bushels, an increase of six
millious over the previous year. Hay,
18,11G, 951 tons, or about ono and a half
million tons less than in 1SG3. Corn,
530,581,403 busheld, or about seventy
millions increase over the year preceding.
Buckwheat, 18,700,540 bushels, or an
increase of nearly three millions. Potatoes,
96,25G,888, a decrease of four millions.
Taking the yearly production, therefore,
the balance. is in favor of 18G4, and the
quality is much better. If the currency
and taxes did not ailect prices, all the
leading articles of provisions which form
the support of life, would be less in piice.
The sorghum, another valuable crop, shows
' - T" . 1 1. d
a large increase, in tne production ot
animal food there is, however, a material
falling off in nearly all tho States, The
production of flaxseed shows a very large
increase, New Jersey and Pennsylvania
taking the lead in this increase; in the
first amounting to over fourteen per cent.,
and in Pennsylvania, four per cent. Ten
of the loyal States produce cotton. The
falling off in tobacco is set down at sixty-
seven millions ot pounds.
Balancing all the iucrease and decrease
of vegetable and animal production, there
is shown to be abundance- of food for the

with so many men engaged in tne war,
and so much destruction of animal life for
war purposes. The use of machinery in
farming has made up for the absence of
hands. Hereafter, when peace is re-estab
lished, its good effects will be felt in high
ly increased crops.
A late Washington special 6ays
that the President has already commenced
the preparation of his message. An ab-
stract of the reports of various bureaus has
been furnished him. Nothing has trans-
pired respecting the views it will take,
but it is understood tho President will
recommend the enactment of a lawabolish-
- J ing slavery everywhere in the United
I Sutes immediately and torever.
Loyal Welshmen.
The Welsh Congregationalista of Pm.
sylvania held their Association thi
at Pittsburg and Brady's Bend, and the
resolutions which were formed on the
