VQTE OF ERIE COUNTY.
RADICAL' MAJORITY, :Ll5O
Democratic Gain of 03the Largebt
Vote ever cast in the t2iftinty.
The election on Tuesday pa-sed oil' in a
quiet manner, and wi:lt fewer unpleasant in
cidents than usual. A drizzling . rain pre
vailed during the day, but did not render it
sufficiently disagreeable to keep • voters at
holthe. The vote of the county is °from five
hundred to a thousand more than was ever
before cast, and with this increased poll the
Democracy have a gain of ninety-three
over that of 18Gti. The Radicals have
control of nearly - every election, board in the
county, and enough legal Democratic votes
have been excluded to have reduced the Rad
ical majority to three thousand. In some in
stances the election boards discriminated
with great injustice against naturalized vo
ters, and a system of intimidation was adop
ted that influenced many to the prejudice of
our party interest. The Democraey.of this
city have probably fallen from fur to a hun
dred votes short of their actual number, ow
ing lo these and other causes which we shall
allude to in future.
1 - nder all the circumstances, the DemO
crats of - Erie county have made a gallant
fight, and done exceedingly well: With two
daily papers arrayed against us, charged to
the brim each day with the most venomous .
Radicalism, we make a gain in the city upon
a vote increased some hundreds over the tar
,.
gcst ever cast. We have had io contend
against all the official influence and nearly
ail the wealth of the county, and in spite of
everything have made a considerable reduc
tion of the Radical majority. Considering
the array of opposition, this increased
strength extraordinary. The Radicals
have had every advantAge on their side nec
essary for making 'political capital. The
Democrats, on the contr.iry have had neither
means nor patronage of any sort, and-if the
opposition had known haw barren we were
of funds they would scarcely have made tke
-desperate efforts to which they-were driven.
Our gains have beett secured wholly by judi-.
cious management and hard, quiet work, and
if there are any who still doubt the policy of
conducting the campaign which was adopted,
we hope a e.miparison of the result in onr
county with that -of . oilier equally reliable
Radical strongholds . , will F.tday eL cm.
The vote on county officers is wally the
Kane as that on the State ticket. Mr:Sco
field runs but little, if any, behind his party
vote, and will probably have about the same
majority in the district that he bad in 1866:
1866. 1868.

Tim last:meeting of. the cainpaign in our
city- was held on Friday evening, and ad
dressed by Hon. C. W. Carrigan, of Philadel
phia, and 'Lc tar famed "Brick" Pomeroy.
The hall was filled to excess with tin enthu
siastic audience. Adam Acheson, Esq., was
called upon
. to. preside, and made a neat,
common sense speech on taking the! chair.
The addresssof Mr. Carrigan was a splendid
oratorical effort, and is prised by all who
heard it. Mr. Pomeroy wits greeted with
tremendous applause, and spoke in a humor
on, and practical vein that told Nt ith good
effect. "His gentlemanly appearance and
manner surprised the Republicans present,
who evidentl}• expected to•sec a strange sort
of a being with horns and hoof,. Mr. Pom
eroy's visit to our city was unexpected, he
having conic from Conneantville at the solic
itation of Mr. Carrigan. lie was taken ~ e-verely
verely ill after the meeting, and remained at
the Reed Ilouse until Sunday morning.
TILE refusal of the Eric & Pittsburgh IL It.

lican inceting,at Albion, has been made the
occasion of some undeserved censure, by
members of, the opposition, m.raiii , t the Presi
dent of that Corporation. In a 'card ex
plaiuiug circumstances, he sass "the
General Superintendent of . this company

the correctness of Mr. Scott's., xplanation. •

litical topics. The " D.truoct tie headqunr-,

State stfeet," (lately kept b Republicans.)
but in the store-room lately Tupied by Mr.
Goodrich. The Radical hea carters in the
same Ward, on the other hand, trere kept in
a yeti? " beer hall."
Citir.bantS and granaries - are stored
Brimful, froth groaning floor to eaves,
And still the fields hold goodly hoard '
Of rustling stacks and golden sheaves ;
And tubers, bursting from the hill
Cry, "such a crowd we can't lie still ;
Come, bring your carts, and dig and fill!"
The gnarling orchards bending low,
scent their weight of ripening fruit,
Foretell, for eves of wintry snow, '
A feast the daintiest taste to suit ; •
And luscious peaches, grapes and pears,
Sweeten the housewife's cans and care-.
The wood 4, which wore their summer crown
With such an airy, witching grace,
Etc yet they don the russet brown
With gold and crimson interlace
Their fluttering robes and vestments green,
Like some capricious foreign queen.
The sumach reddens in the sun
And lifts its fiery banners up,
And elder clusters, one by one, •
Purple With wine from nature's cup ;
And vine aflame and "burning bush"
From every field and hedge-row flush.
The walnut and the chestnut trees
With bristling burs and nuts are brown,
And lazily, in every bieeze,
Thencona.cups come sailing down;
Tall pines -their cones have thrown about ;
And hemlocks breathe their fragrance out.
October—regal queen of all
'The circling sisters of the year—
The crowning glory of the Fall,
Ere yet the,earth grows brown with sere—
Our hearts to thee a coral sing,
Voluptuous counterpart of spring !
. - Whipped again," you say, with- 'rueful
countenance,- Well, so be it. We have suf
fered defeat t before, and know how to take it
philosophically. Such is the fate of war, and
it can't be helped, much as we may regret it.
We tried our best to win, and if we hav'nt
been able to get a majority of the people to
see as we do, what's the use of crying over
the matter? There is some consolation in
knowing that if our party feels bad, they are
not half as sore as our opponents would have
been had the day gone against them. Be
sides, it would have cost us a good deal for
powder and bon-fire material, and all that is
saved for future use. We are gaining Steadi
ly upon the enemy, and it won't be long un
til our turn comes for rejoicing.
"What's best to be done ?" you ask. Why,
what should brave men do, who are fighting
for the dearest interests of their country ?
We believe that we are right, and more than
three hundred thousand men in Pennsylva
nia, as true and noble a set of fellows as ever
breathed, * agree with us: What does justice
to them and ourselves require of us? -If the
principles we hold are Correct, as our convic
tions tell us they are, defeat does not lessen
nor victory add to their soundness. The
weak-kneed and tender-hearted may fall by
the wayside, but, for our part, we intend ad
hering to those who have stood by us, and
fighting it "out on this line" until we win.
If the Republicans can stand a continnance
of the 'kind of rule we have had, for four
more years, we certainly can. Depend upon
it, that, some of them will get thoroughly sick
before they arc through, and think better of
.us than they do now.
1.7 p then, boys, and show them that you
can accept defeat as gracefully as you would
have been rejoiced over victory. The old
slip of Democracy has weathered many a
storm, and tvlil reach harbor safely in good
time yet. It will tie our turn to' hurrah and
tire cannon bye-and-bye. Form ranks and
press on the column. The enemy weakens
at every fresh charge. Our army is four mil
lions strong in the Union, and each man is
as firm in his allegiance as we are. Stand by
the guns, and be ready to meet the foe at
every point.
KEEP WARM A_ND SAVE Yorn Lrpg.—With
in thirty days from to-day there will be many
deaths which might be prevented by warmer
clothing. Many a fatal case is caused by the
want of a woolen undershirt, or of an extra
blanket at night. The sudden .changes of
temperature which occur at this season of
the year are very trying to the constitution•
People with weak lungs quickly feel the ef
fect of them. Frequently the thermometer
fulls sunny degrees within a few hours. Not
only tliC feeble, but robust and strong per-
sons sutler from such great variations of the
temperature. When the weather grows cold
rapidly, the pores of the skin are suddenly
closed, and the result freqUently is a bad
cold, which may hold on all winter and ter
minate in consumption, or a fatal attack of
dysentery, or that dreadful disease, the
typhoid fever.
If the day .eerns ever so warm and bright,
it is much safer to wear plenty of under
clothing at this season. In the evenings the
dews fall, and it grows chilly very suddenly.
At all times, even when it feels the warmest,
one s experiences the difference which is so
marked, between the autumn atmosphere
and that of the summer, There is something
more than the mere difference in tempera
ture: it may be in the electricity. An occa
sional fire In a room dries the walls and puri
fies the atmosphere. A little timely atten
tion to all these things would prevent a great
deal of the disease and suffering which are
among the ills.to which humanity is liable.

Tint HALF-DOLLATerEYNtSON.—The nine
different editions of the Laureate's poetry,
which Ticknor and Fields have hitherto pub
lished seem insufficient to meet all the re
quirements of the reading public. Their
Diamond Edition, published two years ago,
was a miracle of cheap, elegant, and compact
book-making. It is quite outdone, however,
in cheapness and compactness, by the Half-
Dollar Edition of Tennyson's Complete
Poems, just published by Ticknor, & Fields.
This edition is from new types, sot in double
columns, is retharkable for beauty, and no
danger to the eyes - need be feared from read
ing it. It is neatly and durably bound in a
handsome green paper cover, with an excel
lente vign tte head of Tennyson. No one
can now c plain that Tennyson is beyond
his reach, hen his entire poems can be had
in handsome form for fifty cents. .
These books can be procured of any book
seller, or directly from Ticknor it Fields,
