Like Lastetn.s, of Illinois,' he boldly proclaims the doctrine that tall the States of the Union must either be come entirely elaveholding or entirely free-labor communities, and that a grand battle; with no truce or com promise, must be kept op until one or the other of these results is accom plished. This‘in his platform, as +la , the platform of the ultra Republicansi every where throughout. the North, and it implies cotnitant, unceasing agi tation, without a moment's repose, ut the cost of the Union itself.

The aggregate vote for President in this ,State, in 1856, was 460,395. Of this !}amber, 220,710 were received by Bccass.i,s, and the remainder, 229,685, were cast for Messrs. FREMONT and Ftwa n mut. At the election just held the aggregate vote of the State was only 869,246, showing a loss on ,the vote of 1856, of 91,149. The Deinera tievote was 171,120; the Abolition vote -198,116; showing a Democratic loss on the vote of 1858, of 59,590 and an Abo lition loss of 31,589. It is plain, judging from those statis tics, that Pennsylvania is unchanged in her political status. She is - sbill, as she has been from her earliest: history, a Demociatio State. The Opposition have not made any gains; on the other hand, they poll, now, over thirty thou sand votes less than they did two years ago. They beat us this Fall only by getting a fuller turn oat than ours, and it will, therefore, be but necessary for the Democracy to bestir themselves, at the next election, to wrest from their foes the supremacy which they have just obtained. Outrageous I WErWe are informed upon reliable authority, that'at the Know Nothing and Black Republican meeting held in Bendersvillo, a few - nights previous to the lute election, effigies of Hon. Wit sox REILLY and CHARLES 'Wm., Esq., were carried about the town and burnt in the street by Opposition brawlers! Rumors to this effect reached us ten or more days ago, but we preferred await ing its proper authentication before no ticing the outrage in our columns. Can ft be that in a land of social and politi cal rights, esteemed and honorable citi zens arc to bo thus insulted for the sim ple "offence " of being the chosen stand ard-bearers of the old timo•honoreLl Democratic party ? Can it be that even common decency is to be ignored—that politics is to be utterly demoralized— in order that power and " spoils " may fall into the laps of a few hungrytinnow Nothing office-seekers? It would seem so—and it becomes the duty of all good citizens to ponder the revolting trans ' action, and ask themselves where such a course of things would end under the connivance, if not active participation, of a sot of reckless and heartless leaders. It is also said that at the Benders ' rifle I 00, after the election, another arty of Mr. Will was carried in their proceinsiott—thua piling insalt upon insalt.

That speech was delivered in the midst of excitement, and hence there was some excuse for its bitterness. But this lan guage of the Tribune, which is equally traitorous and disgraceful, is published years after that war is ended- when millions of our people have derived ben. efit from it, end when the whale oivilixed world has had its prosperity advanced by its results.

When their corns are all wo shall find ourselves in a Democratic trap. just as we did in 1856. The fact is, Mr. Sackville, we have triumphed in recent elections because we could not help it.

Halloween, the evening preceding All Hallow's or All Saint's Day, which falls upon the first of November, is still made ! the occasion of much pleasure and mer riment for youth la.soma parts of' the Country, although in Got:ysburg the festival is "more honored in the breach than in the observance." Tho passion of prying into futurity, forms a striking feature of Whn nature in its rude state, in all ages of the world, and we!, have the remains brought to mind upon I each recurrence of "hallow eve," as it is called in our day and generation. If the youthful reader desires to ascer tain why "cabbage stalks" and "nuts" • are so inseparably Connected with Hal- 1 loween, lie has only to turn to Burns' hamorous and pleasing poem. Ile will there find enumerated the principal charms and spells of that night,' so big with prophecy- to the lads and lasses of Scotland. The first ceremony of Hal. loween as fierformed by our rude ances tors hundreds of years ago, was the pulling of " kail runts" or cabbage stalks. They went out, hand in baud, with eyes shut, and groping about the garden, pulled the first stock they met with. Its being big' or little, straight or crooked, WM prOplietic of the site and shape of the grand jest of all their charms—the husband or wife. If any earth adhered to the roots, it was indicative of fortune; and the taste of the heart of the stem, - (pleasant or disa greeable) was indicative of the natural temperer disposition. Then the stems were placed above the door, and the Christian name of the person whom chance might cause to open and enter, would be the name in question. Old vs. Mew Qorn for Pork Making. Conversing . with an old farmer, re cently, ho_ stated that ono bushcl of old corn, ground, was worth two bushels of now corn in the ear for making Pork. That It Is of superior quality We don't dontit, but think this estimate of the differenoo rather mare than facts will warrant. Some farmers feed new corn in. prat:ro co to old- , --both in the sit ungiound raw state--thinking the grain, before it is fully hardened, more rowdily and fully digested amisweeter, though perhaps not so oily in character. The point is -weirthy of the oonsiders lion of our random, mid these wh3 can, we hope will commanicate their expari onea.
