Result in the State.
The 'Evening Bulletin' (independent, and
on politics one of the best informed journals
in Philadelphia, sums up the result of the
Election in this Statf, as follows:

The Florida Election.
Charleston, Oct. 9th. -The Jackson
ville (Florida) Rqmblican, of Thursday,
gives Geo., T. Ward, (Whig) for Govern
or, a majortty in Duvall county of G6,
and E. C. Cabell (Whig) for Congress, 58.
A private letter, received from the Re
publican office, says: "Orange, Putnam,
Nassau, Columbia, and Hamilton counties
have given largely increased majorities
for Ward and Cabell, and both are elec
ted. The Florida Whigs will bet heavi
ly that the State goes for Scott and
Graham in November."

Philadelphia, Easton and Water
Gap Railroad.
Any one who, for the first time, will
examine into the resources of north-eastern
Pennsylvania, will be amazed at their
variety and extent. The process, howev
er, will teach him the importance of bring
ing hither the field, mine and forest pro
ducts of that bountiful region, and of
sending hence in return the goods and
merchandise that are required to satisfy
the yearly wants of a large and prosper
pcrous population. The counties drain
ed by the waters of the upper Delaware
are equidistant from Philadelphia and
New 1'ork, while the counties bordering
on the Lehigh are nearest to our city.
Hence, in the matter of average distance,
an important consideration, Philadelphia
has an advantage over her neighbor. To
make this superiority available in all seas
ons, our city has only to provide facilities
for transport and conveyance, which shall
equal, in speed and convenience, those
owned and enjoyed by her competitor and
A Squash. We have been called to
take a general survey and measurment
. of a squash which puts all competition at
defiance. This vegetable monster meas
ures six feet seven inches round, six feet
four inches over, and weighs one hundred
and twenty-five pounds; and according to
the besl mathematical calculations we can
make, will make somewhere in that neigh
borhood of one acre of pie. Only that it
would take all creation to bake the pie in,
we believe we should buy the squash and
forthwith get up a mass meeting on our own
hook. Of course we should expect a large
attendance on the part of our Democratic
as well as Whig friends, although we should
wish it understood as a sort of special
thanksgiving, in advance, for the election
ofWinfield Scott. .
We had almost forgotten to say that
the squash was raised by Mr; Perkins

John J. Craig, a leading Irish Demo
crat of Jefferson Co., Ind., has signified

The Piqua Register states that they are
reliably informed that one hundred voters
in Hamilton, Butler Co., Ohio, who have

General Scott in Southern Ohio
Mi Vintons Opinion.
We are pleased to observe that some
of the ablest men in Southern Ohio are
actively canvassing Scott. A good meet
ing was recently held at Marietta, at
which Hon. Samuel F. Vinton address
ed the people. All know Mr. Vinton
to be one ofthe best posted, most candid
and reliable men in the State. The In
telligencer thus reports what Mr. Vinton
said of his acquaintance with Generals
Scott and Pierce, and of the civil qual
ifications of the two candidates. His o
pinions are worthy of the consideration
of all voters.
Mr- Vinton's Opinion, Mr. Vinton
in his remarks at the Whig meeting on
Thursda-, said, that he had known Gen.
Scott intimately, for twenty years. He
had been privileged to meet with him
probably a hundred times in the company
of the ablest statesmen of this country,
and with the representatives of foreign
countries. He considered Gen. Scott to
be one ofthe best read men in the civil
and political history ofthe county whom
he ever knew. He had frequently been
surprised at the fullness and accuracy of
the General's knowledge in regard to the
early history of the United States, and of
the several States. He Seldom met in
these conventions of intelligent statesmen
a gentlemen of as correct information
upon all subjects pertaining to the civil
administration ofthe government, as Gen
eral Scott; and he never knew a man who
had a higher respect for the laws and
civil authority of the country. He be
lieved Gen. Scott to be in every respect
entirely qualified to perform the duties of
the office of President, with honor to him
self, and with great usefulness to the coun
try. He has also known Mr. Pierce several
years, having been a member ofthe House
during Mr. Pierce's term of service in that
body. Mr. Pierce was a quiet, gentle
manly man in his deportment, and main
tained friendly relations with his fellow
members. But he was never considered
by his party, nor by his warmest person
al friends, a "man of mark," and nobly
sought to learn his views upon any great
measure of public policy., He was not
put forward to advocate or defend even a
party measure, nor placed by a party
Speaker on committees where important
work was expected. One thing alone was
expected of him, to wit : that he would
" vote to a scribe" what he considered to
be New Hampshire Democracy.
Mr. Vinton contrasted the history of
Scott and Pierce not so much as milita
ry men as civilians, statesmen at some
length, and, said that in view of that his
tory, and from his own knowledge of the
two men, he had no hesitancy in saying
that the qualifications he would not pre
sume to assure his audience that his mil
itary capacity was equal to that of Gen
eral Pierce roars of laughter but the
civil qualifications of General Scottfwere
vastly superior to those of Gen, Pierce.
Bloody Retribution. Mark Sullivan,
who murdered Mr. Jordan, in Washing
ton county, Alabam, a few years ago, for
which he was sentenced to the Penitenti
ary, returned home a short time since,
and was shot by a son of Jordan, a lad
twelve or fifteen years of age. Sullivan
died next day. Before he was buried,
ono of his sons was thrown from his horse
and instantly killed. We understand
that Sullivan attempted to shoot young
Jordan first, but his gun missing fire, and
before he could make the second attempt,
Jordan shot him.
What Irishmen Think.
Here is some more testimony ofthe es
timation in which Frank Pierce and the
Locofoco party are held by Irishraen,with
regard to the religious test. Nashua (X
H.) Telegraph.
We, the undersigned, Catholics arid
citizens of Nashua and Nashville, having
seen a statement signed by some thirtv
six of our countrymen, in which it is stat
ed that the Democratic party in this State
has uniformly been opposed to what is
called the religious "test," and that the
Democratic nominee has exerted himself
to erase that odius feature from the Con
sitution; we feel it our duty to say that
the statement we believe is calculatad to
mislead the public, and particularly our
countrymen, inasmuch as the Democraic
party alone is responsible for its reten
tion in the Constitution; and that general
Pierce has never, to our knowledge, done
anything upon that question to recom
mend him to the Catholic voters of this
State; while on the other hand, the Whigs
of these two towns have uniformly been
in favor of striking it out, and voted by
large majorities in favor of its abolition.
