Peoria, Iltitois, dated August 16th; con
tains the following :
"Democraq alrright here.

for thti last few weeks, but HOW pleas

abantlant yield, and other grain is very
good.' The farmers are rushing their

A Close Share. , ---It is still a matter of
doubt who is electedtioversor of Mis

16th instant says that Rollins is 16

counties to Le heard from. Thit.is de

Sr. Lams, August 19.—The latest ad
vices, received to-day, are favorable to
the Democrats, who are generally con
ceded to have elected their Governor.
iliiirNothin.;.l has transpired in the
world of polities since the election of
Mr. Buchanan to the Presidency, which
gives us as much gratification to record
as the glorious victory over:Know Noth
ingism achieved by the gallatit son of
Henry Clay. In a district, Ns hick, two
years ago, gave'a Nothing ma
jority of stxraim nomaim, and last fall
gave Fillmore and I.)4nelson'sis hundred
over Buchanan and 11:eekitiridge, James
B. Clay is--tritrinphatitly elected. :Brav
ing all the slander and vituperation
heaped upon him by his unscrupulous
politic:al enemies—turning neither to
the right nor to the left to regard the
unmanly assaults of his persecutors—
lie has won a tnnmph which will give
additional lustre to the sacred name of
CLAY. Let all true friends of the
reion and the Constitution rejoice that
the dark shadow of Know Nothing
Plug tiglyista is dispelled from • the
fields of Ashland.
iiiirThe Alabama Legislature, just
elected, is divided politically as follows:

this is not all. Wherever opposing eali
i didates travel and speak together, w !licit
is customary in some of the Southern
States,p psonal euliisions are almost cer
tain to : ihow. In the very last contest
ii i Tennessee, and in several of the dis
tricts iu Kentucky, the must uoliappy
conflicts ensued on account of these
' joint meetings. General Packer, advis
!tal by the Democratic State Central
1 Cuminittee, has declined meeting an ad
versary beforehand. This is all he has
dune. Mr. Wilmot sought a joint meet
ing, with nothing to lose by it. lie
placed all his hopes upon the hazard of
the die, and it' detected in the end,
would not be more politically ruined
than he was at the beginning. The
Democratic candidate does not decline
meeting the people lace to face, every
where and always. lie simply abstains
from giving his opponent an opportuni
ty, which, while it• could not serve any
great public porpoise, or advance any
public good, might still further irritate
the minds of the people on a question
which, in the opiniou of all honest men,
was happily put at rest by the result of
the late Presidential election.
We have already announced that
I Gen. Packer will appear before the peo
ple of the different counties of the State
between now and the election, and tvill
give all his opponents an opportunity
of hearing what he has to say
Can't S Icalbac Negroes 117e./e.—The
Wilmington ilerald, a staunch Republi

lowed all the other ituus of the party
without a bone sticking in the throat,
has not the anaconda-like property of
gulping down "negro equality," though
covered with the saliva of " brudderly "
'eeling and mock philanthropy, previ
ous ,to deglutition. The editor says :
" Whenever negro suffrage becomes
one of the planks of the Republican
platform, we shall fool free to seek some
other political organization, and we
think we should dud most of our Re
publican brethren in the same way."

Verily' it is time to have a Democratic
Governor.
VirThe Philadelphia Sun is working
itself into a perspiration ! It says to
the working men of the State, "iryou

Wilmot and wages; but if you think
that slavery should be extended, and

waste your vote on Ilazlehurst, who

line of fire buckets, and as fast as they
were pissed to him he threw the buck

while, " pass on the buckets'."

Is a " fixed ftiet"—eritosi—stu
The laying of the Hails is now in pro

is printed the workmen Neill have put
down nearly a mile of the track, in per.
feet running order. A party of halfa
dozen citizens of this place, happening
at Hanover, the other day, took I. ride
upon a hand car, over the finished part,
and being ourself one of the number, we
can testify to the happy feel i rigs created
in all by the "excursion." The " iron
Horse" will most probably be seen
upon the Gettgebury liadroad by Wed
nesday next—to increase steadily in
length of trips until this place shall
be reached. It is contemplated that by
the first of October, or soon after, the
cars will run to New OxfOrd.
The Contractors, in accordance with
the wish of the-Coiupanti•, have ordered
additional forces of workmen upon the
grading of the road, so that the track-
layers may not be delayed at ant• point.
Great credit is due the management for

New Court House
The Grand Jury, lust wt•ck, approved,
by a vote of 18 to 4, of the finding of
the April Grand Jury, in furor of a new
Court-house—the cost not to exceed
615,000, MIMI the old Court-house and
County Building. A handsome and
sufficiently commodious edifice v. ill
doubtless be secured with the means
thus indicated, and the whole will ho
paid off in a few years without the
least increase in the county tax. To
use a common expression, the tax-pay
ens "won't feel it"—except in the way
occomfort when in attendance at Courts.
The Commissioners will soon be looking
around for a suitable site, and when de
termined upon, make the necessary pre
liminary arrangmnents for the putting
up of the building.
' Personal.
With Tuesday last expired twelve years
since we entered upon possession of the
Compiler establishment. Its prosperity
has been steadily on the increase, as
the, from time to ti improved ap
pearance of the paper has demonstrated.
And with still increasing patronage,
our numerous friends and patrons may
rely upon oar utmost efforts to deserve
it.. To work, with whatever of earnest
ness we may possess, for the diffusion
. of the time-tried and therefore time
'honored principles of the Democratic
party, we have ALWAYS looked upon as
a DUTY, and have never been slow to
discharge it. That our efforts iu this
behalf are appreciated, the large sub
scription list of the Centpi/er will testi
fy.—For this state of things we are
heartily grateful, and shall strive to
merit its continuance.

• Black Republican Difficulty.
It appears that. the Black Republican
party in Mercer Bounty have got into
„ u perfect muss." The party is split
up and the editor of the Freeman is out
against the ticket. He nays that it
was nominated through fraud. Now
this is m hat every one outsidt; of that
party expected; for the party ascii' w:.is
started in fraud, and has sustained its
ongival character " to perfection."

Dreadful Steamboat Accident
' 1 1,1, rig and
Drall•ne,l (•J)lli ,, i(n) took phiee at fwo
o'clock on Saturilav morniti, ,, between
the steamer Metropolk, Captain Brown,
of the Fan River Line, and the propell
er J. N. Harris, Captain Smith, on her
way from New York to New Lonann,
Conn., which re.ulted in a sad foss of
hire. The Erpre“, of Sat LIV an(M . -
11(7041, lA/UW * l/1g 4CCUUIIt 01 the
disaster:
When just off New Haven, nhont two
o'eloek this A. .11., a vessel with one
light was observed ahead . , and under
snits, crossing the steamer's how. The
pilot of the Metropolis supposed her to
he u sailing vessel, as she showed but
one light, which is the regulation fur
sailing vessels, steamers carrying two.
When too near to prevent a eollision it
was tbund that the stranger was a
steamer. The pilot or the Metropolis
having steered his vessel us usual when
meeting sailing vessels—in ease of
steamers the movements being different
—it was too lute to change the course
after the observing of the fact that the
strange vessel was a stoamer.
The engines of the Metropolis were
immediately stopped, but before they
could be reversed, and the -vessel back
ed, she struck the other steamer on the
port side, just forward of the cabin—
the force of the blow bong such a to
cut the stranger in two, the heavy part
of the vessel going down immediately,
and the lighter portions of the wreck
flouting off
At this moment the scene was a most
heart-rending one. Most of the passen
gers of the Metropolis , where up, enjoy
g the fine moonlight scene, and many
of them had watched, with terrible
un xiety and apprehension, the anticipa
ted collision, mid when the collision
seemed inevitable, the shrieks of the
ladies on board, and the fright of all,
appalled the stoutest hearts
The shock of the Metropolis was se
vere. A passenger on hoard—George
Tappan, a crockery merchant of Now
lledford—was so frightened that he was
taken with a tit and died in it.. His
wife, in view of her bereavement, im
mediately went into hysterics, upon re
covering from which she seemed to have
lost all sense and •realisation of the
death of her husband—her senses seem
ed to be gone, and no recollection of the
death seemed to remain. The commis
erating passengers did not dare to dis
tress her by a reminder, and she remains
unconscious this morning of Mr.. Tap
pan's di-I'th.
As soon as smitething like order was
mitered on board the Metropolis, the
boats were sent out, and immediately
manned by the orew, and every possible
exertion made to save the few who had
escaped the wreck of the sunken vessel,
and were hanging on the flouting pieces
of the wreck.
By this means 10 men of the ill-fated
vessel were saved—five passengers, the
captain, two engineers, and two of the
deck hands,
Capt. Smith, when taken out of the
water, immediately insisted on joining
in the endeavor to rescue any others
who might be floating on the pieces of
wreck, and oontinned w;th others in
the search all night. But the above
aro all, out of twenty-fire soils on board,
that ITCPO saved.
