News reached our borough on Saturday evening that this regiment had been mus tered out, and was beiug paid off; and that they intended (those belonging to our county,) to start for home the next morn ing. Arrangements were at once made to furnish them with transportation and a number of vehicles went over to meet them. It was supposed that they would be met about Worthington, and that they would likely be in Hutler about 9 o'clock in the afternoon; with this understanding quite a number of our citizens went out to meet them, in carriages, in buggies and on foot, the "advanced guard" soon arrived but the last of them did not arrive until late in the evening. They were comfort ably cared for, and tlioso living at a dis tance were provided with transportation in the morning, so that they would all be en abled to reach their several election dis trict in time to exercise that most pr<y;ious right—the elective franchise. We made the acquaintance of the most of them, but did not find one of them who seemed to have any thought of votingfor "Little Mac." They all seemed to think that they had endured and accomplished toj j much to have it thrown away by a miser able disunion peace now. We hope they nay live long, in the midst of their friends, to enjoy the fruits of their patriotic toils. The Campaign Closed. As we write we have no definite knowl edge other than the faith we have in the truth of our principles, as to the result of the campaign, perhaps before going to press, wc may have some news, if so we will give it to our readers. As we have intimated, however, wc have an abiding failh in the success of our principles, had we not this faith we would indeed des pair of republics having power, virtue or even ability to preserve themselves. Nev er in oar recollection have wc seen a time when the patriotism of the masses was so fairly at issae as in the campaign just closed. A large and heroic army is in the field—far outnumbering the enemy, the Government has all the means within its control which it requires to prosecute the war with vigor; the Ilcbcl cause is lan gui.shitig, complaints against thcii 'eadcrs are loud aud long. The Mississippi is again a national highway; two thirds of the ter ritory at first owning Rebelsway is reduced ,by our arins; The military lines that at one time run through West Virginia and Kentucky now run through Georgia and Alabama! The army that once occupied Maryland is now closely watohed in Rich mond and Petersburg, the army that once occupied Kentucky is now driven out of its stronghold in Georgia, and ig in reali ty, (what is left, of it) a fugitive iu Ala bama; and tli is is the time when tho op position party has seen fit to assume a hos tile attitude to the war—in fact to declare that the war was a failure; that the hun dred and fifty thousand lives lost in its prosecution are sacrificed not for their country but for the aggrandizement of a party; thus robbing the hero of his laurels. The success of the Union ticket will be le'ling a rebuke to all this, ajid we trust that rebuke has "been given." Tine &LKCYION O. K. FOR LINCOLN, JOHNSON, AM» TIII: UNION. THE REI'I'BI.IC SAFE. From the dispatches in tho city papers to-day, we have tho glorious news of Lin coln's triumphant re-election. Pennsylvania has gone for him by about 15,000 on the home vote.

It can be done A Terrible Scene nt Sen. On her last voyage from Australia to Liverpool the Australian packet ltoyal Standard narrowly escaped destruction by contact with an enormous iceberg of Cape Horn. The following graphic narrative, from the pen of one of the passengers, is published in the English papers: "I was very recently a passenger from Australia to Liverpool on board one of the noblest ships, the ltoyal Standard, belonging to the celebrated 'White Star' line of packets. We wore upwards of three hundred adults oil board, exclusive of the captain, officers, stewards, and sev enty-one crew, and had a cargo of three thousand bdles of wool and JL'I2O.OOO worth of gold. After the genial inter-tropical climate of the antipodes we rapidly ap-< proached the Horn,' when the weather became intensely cold. Morning, noon, and night groups of passengers huddldd or crept round the huge funnel of our ship, ibr we bad an auxiliary screw, to gather a little extra warmth. On Sun day, April 3d, latitude 56° south, longi tude 140° west, we saw the first iceberg, and a beautiful sight it was. "Monday, April 4th, opened with thick hazy weather, and a good breeze, before which wo were going without steam, at ten knots an hour, apprehensive of no danger. Suddenly we ran into a dense fog, and almost immediately one of the doubly lookout gave the alarm. 'Broken water aheaduud almost immediately after, 'loo on the starboard !" At that moment I was writingthc newspaper I conducted on board in the engineers' mess room, but hearing the noise and the ominous cry, 'Helm hard a starboard!" L rushed on deck, and looking over the bulwarks saw, to my horror, an immense mountain of ice, towering far above our maintopgullant mast, which was two hun dred feet above the water-line, and so close to us that any man could have jum ped onto it. ' All hands were immediately summon ed on dock, and everything done to pre* vent what now appeared inevitable— a collision between our ship and the iceberg. The yards were trimmed, the sails adjus ted, and everything done to prevent this fearful catastrophe; but in vain. The monster mountain of ice drew nearer and nearer to us, and we drifted nearer and nearer to it. At length the inevitable moment came; one heavy roll of the ship, and the yards of the foremast grated right into the solid mass of ice, tearing out and hurling down upon the deck im mense blocks of ice, some of them of en ormous size. At the same moment the main and mizzen-topmast snapped at the caji with a tremendous noise, and being made of iron, hung over with all their gear amidst the rigging, to the great dan ger of evety one on dock.' While this was going on, the men at the wheel stood faithful to their duty, although one of them had his overcoat rent iu two by a lump of ice that fell iij.frout of him, yet did not touch him. "The scene on deck was now indiscri bablc. Loudly were the orders passed fore and aft to the hands, and as heartily •ibeyed, to adjust the yards and trim the ship so as to help her forge ahead of the iceberg, many of the passengers render ing good service iu,this emergency. Un der the forecastle deck were gathered groups of men, pale, silent, awestruck. Two strong stalwart meu hail hold ot my hands, and, with big beads of tears roll ing down their cheeks, cried For mercy. Between decks women and children were loud in their passionate cries, and in the intermediate was an elderly gentleman, a widower, with five children, in the agony of woe, expecting his and their immedi ate destruction. Still the worst was not come ; again the ship's yard crunched in to the iceberg. Where [ stood I looked up and saw that this mountain of ice ac tually overhung the ship, standing then six hundred feet out of water. There were two large fissures running from the top a consilcrable way down, and as the ship rolled over I feared the yards would go into one of these fissures. Had they dono so they would have brought down tons of ice that woulj have sent as to the bottom in a moment. We were spared that doom, but the next instant the forc top-gallant mast, jibboom foretopsail yard studding boom, and all their gear went at the next crucnh, tearing and splitting the sails to ribbons. At the same time over the forecastle deck came rolling vast tor rents of water, flooding the decks and creating a fresh source of danger. The ltoyal Standard was now all but a help less log, crippled and dismantled; she presented the most pitiable appearance, and with her masts, yards, chains ropes all hanging over aud dangling about in most dangerous confusion, the marvel is that no one was seriously injured, if-not killed. " Still the worst had not come, and but for the amazing strength of lier iron hull all on board must have gone down to the bottom leaving no record of their fate be hind them. Bodily the ship drifted up against the berg, hgr whole side coming violently into contact with it, and—l quote from the ship's log, lest my account should be regarded as the natural cxag cration of a landsman's fears—' smashed the starboard lifeboat, carried the bump kin, stove and all the starboard bulwarks, stove in the starboard quarter in several places; also the captain's cabin, and sent the chronometers flying about, lifting the poop-deck beams one foot, thus damaging all the cabins ; and with another crash split our upper plate amidships and did other sundry damage. At this moment ■ total destruction seemed inevitable; but as the ship slowly forged ahead under main and foresail, hope still remained. At last the end of the berg, came in view and we forged clear. The berg appeared to be entirely errveloped in a- dense fog and about six hundred feet high. We passed along about half a mile of it and from the time of seeing it to clearing it, it was about half an hour." "Sofar the ship's log. ' Half an hour;, yet what a half hour! Who can tell the agony, the suspense,the wildall but frantic emotions that were crowded into that thirty miputes? Beyond the noise of our ship's knocking about and the or ders given to the men, all was silence af ter the first wild cry of terror and dis may. '■Pale and trembling men gazed, first ( at the iceberg, then ut the ship present ing a picture most desolate; and then at each other; many shook hands aud bade each other good bye; and all stood, ex pecting a cevtain watery grave. For my self, I was toO stunned and startled to fell excited; I seemed incapable of any feeling but that of dumb amazement.— Not a tear came to my relief, not a word escaped my lips. Wife and children 1 felt I should never see any more and so, holding a fellow-passenger's hand, I calm ly awaited the awful moment, the sum mons to which had come so unexpected ly, and under such fearful circumstances. Meanwhile the captain was shouting to the boatswain, ' Do you see the end of the berg ?' Again and again for all our safety lay in our Fpcedily gainiug open sea. At length, after many times ' Nut yet, sir' he ,said, ' Yes, sir, close by;'and in another minute We had passed our enemy and were in open sea once more. " Three loud cheers passed fore and aft, and again we shook each other by the hand, and thanked God fur our deliver ance. The saloon passengers immediate ly held a special roligious service, and so did the intermediate and steerage, and those services were continued daily till our arrival in Liverpool." .1 Chinese Temple in Sun l'ritn eiseo. The San Francisco llnl/iliii has an in teresting account of a wonderful teuiplo just completed in tint city by the Chinese residents: "It may not be known to all our read ers that there are in California six influ ential and wealthy Chinese companies, which are partly commercial associations and partly benevolent orders, and with which all the Chinese who come hither are in some sort connected. These com panies are known as the Sam Yep, Yeong j Wo, Wee Yep, Ning Yeong, Hop Wo and I Yeu Wo. They all have their headquar- | ters iu this city. Every Mongolian who comes to this coast is either consigned to the care or indenture to the service of one of these companion. They have a com plex registry of the names and where abouts of their countrymen, are bound to look after them in health aud sickness long as their connection with the company is preserved, and if they die here to re-, turn their bodies to China." "These Chinese companies also mix the religious element with their business, not j seeking to proselyte us 'outside barbari- | ans,' but to furnish temples wherein the j members of their own guilds may wor- | ship the wooden gods of the Celestial Empire, and burn Josh sticks and holy ! paper. The See Yey Company have long | had a temple. The Ning Yeong Com- j pany have recently built a large establish- , incut, which has been popularly reported to be a pagan temple, wherein all manner of idols arc worshiped and mystic rites performed, .Popular report is partly right and partly wrong. "The main building is of brick, about twenty feet front, forty feet deep and three stories high. The front is a recess ed arch under a square cornice, the win dows opening upon iron-railed balconies built within the arch and outer square line of the building. This edifice is ap proached through a square onc-Story.brick, opening into an inner court. The first floor of the main building is divided into several small reception and smoking rooms, at the entrance to which stands a police officer, who admits whoever has one of the invitation cards issued by the company. In these rooms visitors are sometimes han ded a cup of tea, some fried cakes, or .a paper cigar, and Chinamen may be seen reclining on 'ounges and smoking pipes of wood and metal, which emit a very vil lianous smell. Back of tho. reception royms is a sort of alter, covered with gilt and red hangings, the front being open and showing what resembles a succces sion of small steps or shelves, which are covered with paper and inscribed with Chinese characters. This is the register of the dead. Here are inscribed the names of all the members or wards of the Ning Yeong Company who have died in California. Iu front of this gostly record lamps arc kept burning night and day. '• The furniture of all the apartments on the first floor is of the plainest descrip tion. Ou the second floor is the com pany's business room, or exchange, where the president or Sing Song, whose name is Wing (ia, and his head manager, Ah Wee, sit and smoke anil talk, receive vis itors, preside over meetings of the com pany, and direct its ordinary concerns, re lieving the tedium of these occupations with an occasional tune u#sotne of those thrilling two-stringed instruments for which Chinadom is so famous. " But the wonder of the whole build ing is the temple in tho third story. The first glance at it reveals only a confused heapgof gilt, crimson and blue cabinets, brass ornaments, crimson hangings r.od guady signs, while the air is laden with warm and sickening odors. A \aore care ful survey extracts something wonderful and systematic from this •melange of bar baric tinsel and furniture. The wallsand ceilings arc nearly hid with the huge crimson, blue anj gilt signs, each bearing four large letters—supposed to be a motto of some sort—and some an inscription in smaller characters on one end. These are said to be presents from Other companies, and from friends here and in China. Across the centre of the room are placed three cabinets, each about ten feet long by two feet wide and four feethigh, made of exceedingly dark and heavy wood, and the fronts carved in high relief in the most grotesque and elaborate manner. Some of the carvings represent the interi or of houses, with figures of men, beasts, birds and insects in strange juxtaposition; while others constat of trees, vines and scroll work—all gilded, the background being the original bark color of tfca wood. "On the top of these massive cabinets are large braziers filled with incense or containing livo coals, in which sticks of sandal wood arc slowly burning; fantastic wax tapers; sticks of punk three feet high aud four inches thick; lofty vessels of a metal like tin, whose use is not ap parent; small images; peaked yellow flags; pyramids, or fan-shaped bunches or arti ficial flowers, peacock tails and insects, mixed with tinsel ornaments; biasing lamps; carved and gilt sticks of wood, &c. A'oeg the sides of the room, at the end of these cabinets of embroi dered silt, round and square and fringed; drums, brass emblems, military and civic and weapons of war. In the rear of all this splendor stands the altar of Josh— the wooden god of.the almond-eyed idola ters. This is a square alcove of carved and gilded wood, in which sits the awful Josh himself—a big-paunched China man with a brick-red face, long strips of red cloth flowing from each side of his head, three tails of black horse hair sprouting out of his chin and the corners of his mouth, and his porsoi* bedizened with blue, green, crimson and gilt carv ings, studded with bits of glass, to repre sent his small clothes, and high above his head a brass sun, as if this celestial super stition had mixed with it a bit of l'arsee iatu. We were asked to believe while in this awful presence that Josh, when alive on earth, stood fifteen feet, wielded a bat tle-axe that weighed a ton, and one day killed thirty thousand of his foes. In proof of this story we are shown by Ah Wee, in a manner that admitted of no controversy, a wooden battle axe, highly carved and gilded, whi(Ji is an exact rep resentation of the one that Josh swuug with such fateful fury. Under Josh's august nose blazed several 0.l lamps; and sticks of burning sandal wood aud punk, and braziers of incense powder, sent up wreaths of suioke, filling the room with an odor that was rather pleasant after a while. Before this alter the heads of the companies, clad in long blue robes aud black skull caps, appear daily during the festival, bowing, kissing the floor and chanting, while the Som Yen and Good Kim are twangled and drums are beat in horrid dissonance. Hither are brought offerings of baked and raw meats —whole sheep and hogs. A record of these is kept, but with the exception of the left hindquarters of the baked animals, they are taken away again by those who bring them. This is au economical form of sacrifice, and probably does Josh as much good as though his votaries did not save their bacon so carefully. The religious ceremonies are soon over fand that is (fli other wise economy), though during the current festival they arc frequently re peated. "Itis a curious fact that the Chinese do not reseut or apparently object to the presence of Americans during these rites, l'erhaps they are willing to give us every opportunity to bo converted, and desire to set us an example of liberality and cour tesy which we will be long in following."
