• POITIATION OF ERIE CO.—lt seems to be
generally conceded that in this section the
proportion of eight persons to each voter is
a fair orte on which to base an estimate of
population. • In older settled localities the
proportion varies from one to six to one in
seven, but that rate is admitted by all good
judges to be too tow for this section of the
,State, owing to causes familiar to most of our
readers. Presuming the former ratio to be

BETTING ON ELEcTioNs.—The Court of
Appeals in Kentucky, a few days ago, de
cided that property delivered by one on con
dition flint, if he wins, the loser must pay for
it, is a contract binding on the losing party.
This was upon a case from the Shelby Court.
In August, 1860, a man named Todd sold and
delivered a horse at $225 to be paid when
Bell and Everett should carry the electoral
vote of Kentucky, they then being candidates
for President and Vice President. They did
carry the electoral vote of Kentucky at that
election, and the horse not being paid for,
Todd, in 1867, sued on said obligation. The
plea was set up that it was a bet on an elec
tion within the denunciations of the State
laws; after which Todd filed an amended
petition, claiming recovery on the implied
promise to pay a reasonable price for the
horse within a reasonable time. Tlie Court
below instructed the jury to find for the.

SPEEt 11 AS Is A SPEECII.—TIIC celebra
ted .Jim. Tarr, of oil notorietW, was an Inde
pendent candidate at'the October election
for Xs-ociatc Judge of Crawford County.
He was'nt as fortunate at getting votes as
in striking oil, but he probably considers his
political ( pelicnce *oral all it coSt. dast be
fore the dceinive day, he was "called out" to
make a speech at Meadville, which is thus
reported by a correspondent of the Titusville
Herald :
"Gentlemen, by--, I've - hauled oil and
I've run on the Allegheny river, been up and
down Tionesta,and am acquainted all through
thar. By—, I'm an independent candi
date for Associate Judge, and goin to
,get
one or two votes, sure,as your horn. That's
all, gentlemen !"
' Jim's eloqUence «as not without effect.
He received twenty-five voter , , out of twelve
thousand. Such is fame.
GERMAN DEMOCRATIC PAPER.—We know
H of no better opening t l han this city for the es
tablishment of a good Democratic German
newspaper. The German population of
Northwestern Pennsylvania is large, and
there is no journsl of their own language in
this section which represents the views of
that portion who hold to the Democratic
faith. 5 A considerable number of
,tliem
would be willing to take stock in a paper, if
the right kind Ma wan were at the head of
it. Tony German printer qualified for the
trust, a good chance is offered, and•we shall
be pleased to furnish such a one all the in
foimation and assistance in our power. ,
A BET was made between - two - gentlemen
of our city on the result of the election, which
differs somewhat from the ordinary line. In
case Grant was elected the Democrat agreed
to wheel'a negro from Federal Hill to the
foot of State street, and the Republican was
to do the same in the event of Seymour's
election. The Democrat having lost, will
fulfil his engagement on Tuesday next, and
an immense crowd will undoubtedly be on
hand to see the fun.

CREW &sm.—During the gale of last
week, the schooner Die Vernon foundered
near Long Point, opposite this city, and the
crew saved their lives by .clinging to the
spars. Three vessels passed while they were
in this unpleasant position, ont'of which at
tempted to save the men, and losing a por
tion of her sails resumed her voyage ; the
others did not deem it safe to attempt their
release. Soon after, the bark Forest King,
Capt. Starke,appeared, and as soon as its big
hearted commander saw them he resolved
upon their rescue, at all risks. The wind
was blowing fearfully,a heavy sea was rolling,
his vessel was heavily laden with black wal
nut lumber, and those less brave than Capt.
Starke would have deemed these sufficient
-reasons for leaVing the Die Vernon's crew to
find a watery grave. As soon as his vessel
righted, and the Captain was - satisfied that
his anchor had.a firm hold, a boat was low
ered, a long line attached to it, and then sent
off on its errand of mercy. The effort was
successful; after much hard labor the crew
of the foundered vessel were transferred from
their perilous condition at the masthead of
tlivlr craft to the warm cabins of the Forest
King, and when Capt. Starke had assured
himself that all were saved, he , weighed an
chor and resumed his voyage, arrivinfe at
Buffalo that night. The c‘isoli, a e”14114.(1
m in, was the only one lost.
THE Gazette and Republican have become - j
embroiled in a furiott, controversy, in which
each is seekihg to prove that the other is lien
a "true" exponent of Radical ptinciple , . The I
dictionary has been hunted through and
through for odensive epithets, and it is
dints
cult to decide-which Las been most success
ful. The Republichn acetts: the crlazette of
being the "organ of the father of lies;' which
applies with equal force to most Radical'
sheets, and the Gazette retorts upon it, rival
with the charge that it is a Democratic paper
in disgti,e, which will be funny riewwt. to
those who know its inteime hostility to.ereiry
thing that saviirs of sound political princi
ples: The Gazette:s , statement that Senator
Lowry is - the controlling owner of the Ile
' publican, has call:a forth a long letter. from
that gentleman, in which he denies tieing in•
terested in its management, and "spreads
himself" upon matters and things generally
in that vigorous and refreshing style which
is so peculiarly his own. The dispute be:tins
to attract wide attention. and from present
indications it will not be long until - the two
factions are as hostile towards one another as
they ever were againt the Demoeracy.
Meantime, the Dispatch keeps discreetly
quiet, and when the Gazette and Republican
have chewed one another to. 'deem will
probabV l step in and secure the spoils.

At tile election on Tuesday, in Newark,
N. J., Mrs. Lary stone Blackwell' and her
minher-in-law,. Mrs. Blackwell, presented
thetpselyes at the polls and attempted to vote.
Thi-leadi.rsclaimed that under the old con
stitution of the Statewomen hail the right to
cote and had frequently exercised it, and
that the present constitution Is illegal, be
cause women were not allowed to vote upon
its adoption or for the convention that flamed
it. But, even if it.is constitutional, It still
admits the right of women to vote, because
it does not expressly limit the suffrage to
males. The judges would not be convinced,
however, and the votes were refused. In
another part of New Jersey, the village of
Vineland, one hundred and eighty-three
women marched to the poll and offered their
sacrificial ballots likewise upon the shrine of
the• future. With that charming indiscretion
which characterizes the sex, they had cons•
ded their intention each woman to some
favored man, and- the males took a truly
hideous advantage of their confidence. For
they provided separate receptacles for the
votes of the fair, and into these those votes
were put, 'the deluded depositors fondly
dreaming that they had borne effectual part
in the election. The wretches who thus pal
tered with them in a double box and kept
the word of promise to the eye but broke it
to the hope, ruthlessly rent the beggarly ac
count of else empty boxes full fraught with
the future of femininity, and scattered their
consecrated contents to the winds: These
budding aspirations so cruelly crushed must
give us pause. •
It is a canons coincidence that about the
same time—as the Atlantic cable informs us—
the Court of Sessions in Edinburgh rendered
a decision, upon final appeal, that the women
of Scotland had no right to vote. But al
though these two decisions in two hemis
pheres may appear to settle the question of
woman', right to vote, that is no reason why
the strong-minded of the weaker sex should
not persevere in their efforts to obtain a rev-.
ognition in sonic of the political rings. It is
true that their work generally has made very
slow progress ; but the greater the difficulty
010 greater the virtue in perseverance. Let
the strong-minded women, therefore, not be
di-courafreil by the judicial decision in the
Scotti,h capital or their disappointment in
the I;ttle New Jer,ey villages rejoicing in
the sweet and )eductive name: of Bre-eville
and Vineland. -

O:ice over Grant's election has not come off
yet. and there arc no prospects that it ever'
will. What's the matter, gentlemen ? Have
the brethren all been .bled so heavily that
they will give.no more, or are you too much
in fear that Grant will betray you, to feel
h ippy over the result ? Why, if the Democ

pretty sights, and it always adds a charm to
them when none of the expense comes out

zweig, on Peach street; the earth caved in
anchfellupon hin.l to the depth of ten or
twelve feet. Several botirs of hard work
were required before the dirt .could be re

was found in a kneeling posture, with life
extinct. Mr. Graves was an industrious
man, 'and had a large family dependent upon
his earnings, to whom his death will be a
severe loss. Mr. Rosenzweig, with a degree
of generosity that cannot be too much com

be,nearly equally divided among the two

WE fully agree with a cotemporary that
"if a drunken man could, in the midst of his
inebriety, be made conscious of What a con
temptible fool he makes of himself, it would
be apt td at least shame him into moderatiOn,
if not is a total rejection of the intoxicating

degradation, for the reason that at the time
the degradation is at its greatest depth, - his
senses are steeped in obscurity." •

in Buffalo who recently lost her pocketbook,
