adoption of one fixed day by all the Staten of

ItEl9l7.liT . Oi THE ELECTION.
Although weber° not complete returns from
all the" districts, enough is,known to show the
Attest of the entire Whig State and County
ticket in this county. Our Assembly candi
dates have suffered, we judge, the most decided
defeat of all --`the majorities_ against' them
being reported at five toedi . hundred.. This
result however.affords no evidence of : either
their malodor political strength, as hundreds
of Whig votes Were'withheld from, or openly
cast against them, on account of their identifi
cation with the prohlbitoiy liquor .law move
ment. This formed the exciting and absorbing
question throughout the county, having un-..
doubtedly materially influenced the result; and'
as is usual with • now questions, injuriously to
.the Whigs.' Party lines have been lost eight'
of, and In some of the districts but little more
than half the Whig veto has been polled. A
greater '‘g scratching " of tickets has probably
never boon known in the county.
The result in our own borough is sufficient
to rejoice the heart 'rof every good Whig. If
the Whigs of the wholi o nAnty had oomo up.
to the work in the fiamo spirit, we should now
be rejoicing over victory 'instead of defeat.—
But the majority in Carlisle for tho"Carlisle
Whig candidates—for Joins D. - Gottuns,of 116
—for Jowls Ititoaria of 117,and for Wm. M. Paw
nees. of 99 votes, is a result which those gen
tlemen may well bo proud of. It is the em
phatic testimony of those who know them best
and most intimately, es citizens and neighbors,
to their high personal character, which they
may treasure up and revert to in after years
withßie highest satisfaction. Such'a triumph
at home will to them relieve defeat of all cha
grin and mortifloation.
Wo find it impossible to give any table of
returns. From a number of the townships we
have not yet heard, and what returns we have
are - greatly - confused. The vote : elle Carliele
district is all that we can give with any thing
like certainty. It will afford a fair 'specimen
of the way parties were - ".mixed up." In the
East Ward, Carlisle, McKee and Moser, for
assembly, have about 30 majority; Armstrong
for commissioner, 43; Penrase for Prosecuting
Attorney, 11; Woods for Treasurer, 20. In
'the West Ward, Koons and Cathcart, Whigs;
for Assembly, have each about 180 majority ;
Gorgae, for Commissioner, 166; Rhoads, for
Treasurer, 187 ; Penrose, for Prosecuting At
tornoy, 86. In South Middleton, Meter and
McKee, fozAssombly, have a majority of about
111 V and Shearer, for Prosecuting Attorney,
49. In North Middleton, McKee and Moser
have a majority of 120; Woods, for Treasurer,
81 ; Armstrong, for Commissioner,, 92; Shea

about 59 ; Shearer, for Prosecuting Attorney,

bly,. has 7-majority and' Koontz 14; Penrose,
for Prosecuting Attorney, 36 ; Gorges, for
Commissioner, 41 ; Rhoads, for Treasurer, 68.
Total majority in the Carlisle district, com
posed of the foregoing precincts, for McKee
and Moser, democrats, 284 ; for Armstrong,
democrat, 29 ; for Shearer, democrat, 60 ; for
Rhoads, ,whig, 50. The .Newville 'and Silver
Spring districts will make 'McKee and Moser's
majority over 500.
DAUPHIN AND FRANKLIN
In Dauphin county we.learn that _the loco foccioandidates for Assembly are elected, and
part of the loco county ticket.
In Franklin county the contest is close, and
it is not clear whether the whig or loco Ae
sembly men have triumphed. The Whig State
ticket will kayo a majority of 250.
Tho returns from Philadelphia are not suffi
cient to show the result. Murphy, the loco.
foco - eandidate for Marshal of Pollee, is proba
bly elected, and Mayor Gilpin, whig,4yelected.
The whigs carry the City Councils.
THE RELEASE OP KOSZTA.—It 'bee been sta
ted that Mr..Hulsemann, the Austrian Charge,
was in Albany, and that it was .rumored that
at a private interview with Secretary Marcy,
arranged - Teialiiiiii Tlia -
Albany Knickerbocker, of Tuesday, has the fol
lowing paragraph in relation to the matter ;
It was credibly rumored in the city last night
that an agreement had been made between Mr.
Marcy and Mr. Huisemann,, that Koszta shall
acoode to certain arms, which the Austrian
government sees fit to dictate, and which are
grounded on their fears of an European reio
lotion ;or else that Hossta shall retu rn to'the
shelter afforded him by our insutions on
American eoil.
A letter from Vienna received by the Ameri:
ea, and direoted to a gentleman in Now York,
it is said, contains the following information:
The Austrian government hoe given its con
sent to the liberation of Koszta, with the un
derstanding that he should hi immediately put
on board an American vessel and go directly
to the United States, It wee known that Mr.
Marshall proposed an arrangement of that kind
to Baron Bruck, and the Austrian government
Is said to have given its consent, partly because
it relieves the French Consul General from the
disagreeable engagement to keep Koszta which
he had undertaken for the purpose of saving
the city of Smyrna and the shipping in tho
harborfrom immediate destruction. The Aus
trian government, in consenting to this ar
rangement, has expressly reserved its right in
case Koszta should return to Turkey, to arrest
him, and also considers himistill an Austrian
subject es.long as he shall nut be divested of
his native nationality in a regular and lawful
way.
Imnassn LUMP OF COAL.—The mammoth

AGRICULTURAL FAIRE.
The increase of Agirioultural Fairs, through
out! the country, says the Philadelphia Ledger,.
is one of the most favorable signs of the day.
American farming Js 'confessedly inferior to
that of tiretießritatn, so that whatever tends
to elevate it Is a publio benefit, and should be
encouraged by all good eitixens. The greatest
benefactor of his kind, it has been 'said, is he
who teaches iwo blades of grass to grow where.
only ono has grown ;before: These fairs, by ,
the emulation they excite among farmers, tend
directly. to this end. • They are te, agrioultu
raliete what eh !ma:tango is to, merchants.—
Eiery novelty is there produced, dieousSed and
he merits added upon. •
. Consider what these faire have done for the
breed of cattle. If the few spirited individu
als, who first Imported tho best stooks from
abroad, had, instead of exhibiting them at
these faire, kept. them secluded always on the
farm, how little comparatively would have
been the good effected. The breed of cattle
on that partiOnlar estate, and the one or two
neighboring ones, Would have beenlMProved,
bat the great body Of agriculturalists would
have remained entirely ignorant of the advan
tage of a superior stook of cattle. Tho differ.
once between Italian farming, where no im
provements have been made forcenturies, and
the modern scientific' farmrg of Great Britain,
is to be attributed to the exchange of ideas
among the farmeri' of England, and the want
of snot; exobsnge among the farmers of
Italy. A few fairs would regenerate the
Italians. •
Formerly these fairs, were confined, in the
United States, principally to the nekghborhood
of large cities. There has been for many
yearn, such a fair in this-county. Brit now
every county in the State Is establishing an
agricultural fair. Farming consequently is
being quickened to a new life. The venerable
jog-trot fashions of tilling the , soil are giving
way, untler4he stimulating influence of these
assemblage4"to new and improved methods,
just as cooked hats,' queues and powdered
heads of our grandfathers have 'succumbed to
the more sensible attire of existing generations.
The old fogies in agriculture are gettteg
ashamed of themselves. The most incredu
lous skeptics -in scientific farming atiegood
breeds of cattle are mortified when an agricul
tural fair is 'opened at their doors, and they
see, with their own eyes, how far they are be
hind the age.
Give us agricultural faiis all over the land,
They will work Miracles. What the spinning
jenny has been to manufactures, that agricul.
tural fairs will yet be for farming.
Tau STATE AonictuannAL FAIR.—The Pi tts
burg Post is informed by the Secretary of the
-Society.- that the- total-receipts from - the - Fair
held at Pittsburg, last week amount to $16,-
000. This is the largest sum over received in
this country, at a State Fair. At the N. York
Fair, held in Utical last year, the receipts fell
below the amount received by the Pennsylva
nia Society, $2,600.
It is estimated by those who had every op
-portunity of fudging, that the number of per
sons on the Fair ground at 4 P. M. on Thurs
day; amounted to 60,000.
YORK, Pa., Oct. 6.--4 tie York County Agri
cultural Fair opened this morning on the York
Commons, the enclosure embroiling nine acres.
The whole of the enclosure was perfectly filled
with visitors, the attendance from all parts of
the surrounding country being immense. The
cattle exhihited is very fine, the numerous
stalls erected being all full, and a mumber
etaked out. The implements and, other articles
on exhibition present a good attraction, and a
number of Baltimoreans are contestants for
the premiums. To-morrow will, however,
should the'weather prove clear, be ittgrant
day of tho Fair. Our town is comp etely
filled withltrangers.
Tuz Lehigh County Agricultural Fair, which
took place at Allentown, last week, was carried
through with muoh spirit. The tickets sold in
one day—oxalusive of member or family tickets
—amounted to upwards of ten thousand. II
is estimated that there was at one time within
the enclosure at least 18,000 to 14,000 persons.
The permanent.. Fair
Ground, with suitable buildings, sheds, coops,
&o. It is intended to 611 the enclosure with
shade trees, collected from every township in
the county, so as to make the giound an epi
tome of Lehigh. This is a capital idea.
A CATHOLIOTIIIMIT FOlt Cosonsas.—The po
litical field of New Mexico presents the novel
epeotnole of a Catholic priest before the people
as candidate for Congress. A section of the
democratic party assembled in convention - all
Algodonee on the 6th of last month, and nortd- 01
nated Padre Jose Manuel Gallegos for delegate
to Congress in opposition to GOT. Lane, the
regular democratic nominee. This Gallegos
appears to be "a bold, bad man." He has
been suspended from exercising hie ministerial
funotione by Bishop DeLancey for the grossest
iminoralities. He was !selected to the Territo
rial Legislature last winter, and, never once at
to his duties there, but embarked In
some commercial scheme. He would not give
up the society of his mistreat', or hie plane of
pecuniary 'aggrandizement, says the Banta Fe
Gazette, to serve the constituency. Yet it
would appear from the notice taken of the
Padre's appearance in the field by the Gazette,
that he is backed by some influence and
strength, and was likely to fight a hard battle.
As the election came off on the 6th of the pre
sent month, the contest is now decided, and
we may look for the result before long.
SETTLING AN ESTATE IN PEELION.—.DT. Sap
pington, a wealthy gentleman of Saline county,.
Missouri, recently called to his amily mansion
his two eons, three sons-in-laws, and twogrand
eons, to divide his property among them. With
the utmost harmony, they fixed upon the value
of his lands, about eight thousand acres, and
a large number of negroes. The ,valuation
being made, by tho same consent each took
such a part as best suited his purpose, at the
price named. The personal propOrty consist
ing of stocks of mules, horses, &0., &0., were
put up at auction, and . the primeeds of the sale
divided.; In Like manner.. Thus the whole es
tate, except so much as the DoOtor reserved
for himself, was disposed of, to the entire eat
formation of the donor and the reciplehtei'liniv
ing.no clause' for dispute or litigation hereafter.
The Doctor reserved for his own use twenty
thousand dollars in each, ten thoneand or
twelve thousand of which he intends properly
to invest as a permanent fuad'for the education
of poor children in the county of Saline. '

WOMEN'S MORTIS :CONVENTION.
OLAVIR.IND, Oct. 7.—The Women's. Rights
Convention assembled here bad a moat stormy
session yesterday, which abbunded in eviden. ,
Oen of the folly of those composing it.. A serieel
of reeeintions were adopted, hOldly claiming
the exercise of, the elective franchise as ono
of women's rights and her elegibility to politg
eat stations o(honor and profit. As the ladies
wore in °fair Way of monopolising the n holo
debate, tin or& cold,thember of theta - re gen
der ventured. to offer a res'olutiolcii..,the effect,.
that.the women confine , their epeeches . within
the limit of fifteen minutes.
,This proposition
was of course received as a very serious at
tempt to encroach upon one,of the 'most-its
&abut of wonten'irighis;l,i4 . Weeindignantly
voted doWn. Mrs. Claiiiiiel'tvsndeavored to
speak a word in behalf cii,hine; probably with
the kind intention of soothing the feelings of
the author of the objectionable resolution, but ,
she was immediately gagged for her temerity
amid loud cries of "turn . her out." Abby
Holly made a speech, in which she bitterly at.
tacked churches and ministry, which excited
more angry discussion, and attempts were
made to put her down by those who were not
yet prepared to go the same length of folly.—
Abby, however, maintained her position, and
would, not yield tho floor, declaring that she
would not be put down. Hero another terrible
scene of confusion 'and strife of tongues en
sued, in the midst of which a motion to ad
journ was , put and carried, when the Preei
dentees fled the h s all to escape the vengeance
of some portidn of the Convention whom she
bad offended;
Oratver.ann, Oct. 11.—The closing scones in
the Women's Convention last evening were of
the most exciting character. Antoinette Brown
replied to Mr. Barker's infidel speech, denoun
-cing him - as aheretic. Mr. Garrison replied
to Antoinette in defenCo of. Mr. Barker. Mr.
Nevins also replied to Barker, making soteral
personal allusionP, and was interrupted several
times by Garrison and Barker, who wore finally
hissed down. Mr. Garrison called Mr. Nevins
a blackguard rowdy, whereupon groat excite
meat ensued. It was voted to hold the next
convention In, Philadelphia, in, October, 1854.
After'the adjournment Nevins met Garrison
in the street and demanded an apology, which
was refused. Neiins then laid violent hands
on Garrison, pulling his nese and otherwise
abusing him. The latter made no resistance,
and Nevins was finally taken off by his friends.

AbIERIOAN BOARD OF COMMISSIONEIIB.—Tho
forty-fourth anniversary meeting of the Ameri
can Board of Commissioners for Foreign Mis
siona commenced in Cinoinnati, on Tuesday.
Rev. Wm: Adams, D. D., of N. York, preached

Two EBIPEUCIE or RUSSIA AND lIIS Tnoors.—
A gentleman of New York, who was recently
present in St. Petersburg at a review of 100,-_
000 Russian troops by the Emperor s , the Mirror
says, desorlbes him as a perfect specimen of
the physical man. In height six feet three,
.and admirably proportioned, with snow tvhite
hair end ruddy countenance. He was plainly
dressed • in a dark green frook, with a black
chapeau without feathers ; and mounted on a
coal blauk charger of immense size; the Czar
looked "every inch a king."
As the troops were passing before him, he
suddenly raised his hand as a signal for halt,
when he dismounted, walked up to-a private in
the ranks, and asked him to unbutton his coat.
On finding that tiro soldier was^without a shirt,
the Emperor promptly oidered the tams of
the company-to Siberia ; and the officers of the
regimont were iminediately degraded to the
rank of privates.-

Panxontsxoi — Near tho ;tillage of Besse
rads in the Loire Inferieure, Pronto, there is
a woman who, for the lost two years, after
having bcen , violently sick of an intermitton,t
fever is now living upon a glass of fresh milk
ti.day. Sine is, nevertheless,, very strong, and
walks to Church every SUnday, a distance of
throe miles. In Belgium a phenomenon more
incredible has been known for the last thirty
five years. There is living near Delft, in the
village of Pynack, woman named Eugeltje i
Vanderbliss, who, since the month of May,
1818; has not swallowed a particle of food,
and-eince the Toth of March, 1822, has drank
neither wine nor water, She is reduced to a
skeleton, but enjoys good health. On the
20th of August last she oelebrated the 00th
anniversary of her birthday.
THE latest national statistics of crime are
found in the abstracts of the Seventh. Census.
From that it appears that the whole number of
persons convicted of crime in the enited States,
for the year . ending Juno, 1850, was about 27,-
000; of these, 13,000 were natives, (inoluding
colored prisoners,) and 14,000 foreign born.---
By the same authority, andvto the same date,
we ore informed that our population was com
posed of 17,737,505 natives of its soil ; 2.216,-
828 born in foreign countries, and 30,014 whose
nativity could not be determined. While we
have, therefore, but about oneforeign resident
'to nine native whites, there is a fraction over
one foreign born criminal to every native, in
cluding black and white. Such was the ratio
of crime in 1850, and there is no reason to
suppose it has materially changed since that
time.
FEMALR EQUESTRIANSIIIP —There was a
grand trial of female horsemanship last week
at Randolph, Chautauqua county, N. Y., at
tended-by several thousand persons. A prize
was offered to the beet slider, and Miss Susan
B. Chaplain, of Napoli, and Miss Francis Jones

AT a Native American meeting held in Phi
ladelphia on Tuesday evening last, Lewis C.
Levin is reported to have said :—"I announce
myself as the American candidate for Governor
of this state in 1864. No more going to Wash
ington. On Harrisburg my eyes are now fired.
I will. give my services, my means, my ability,
whatever it may be, in
. organislng Native
American Associations in every county in the
state. I will even learn Dutch—for there are
many Native Americans who speak nothing but
Dutch: 'Neat year I will receive 60,0017 votes
in this state, and in three years from that time
I will be elected the Native American Dover
nor.—ltest_assured. of,this."
Ax Ohio paper describes. a fight between
seventy swarms of Bees, arranged in two par
ties. They filled' the air, covering a space of
more than one acre of ground, and fought des
perately for three hours, not for ...spoils," but
for conquest. They stung a large flock of.
Shanghai chickens, nearly all of which died,
rind persons passing 'along the ai-a- side were
obliged to make haste to avoid their sting.—
Neither party was viotorioue, and they' only
ceased on' the' approach of night, and tiom
utter prostration.
Tue Cholera in Great Britain is steadily in
ereasing. At Newcastle there has been 985
'loathe, and 80 a day—seven times as many as

were 227, or nearly twice as many as in 1831-

they nave with much love. They are peace
able and industrious, and give practical evi
dence that "their faith is illustrated by works."

rroattuights ore approaching, plants that him
been bedded out must be re-potted. ' If this
is done during dry weather, the soil abOut the
plant should be tolerably well saturated with
water a day or two before the'plant is lifted..
Put at least an inch of broken crockery in the
bottom of the pot for drainage, a few lumps of
charcoal on tho top of this will bo'ueoful. The
potting earth should be rich if you expeot the
,plant to either grow or ydoom'well, but besare•
ful how you enrich it. Cow manure is among
the best, but it should be old, well rotted and
reduced to a powder, so as to mix freely with
the soil.
Plants, should be potted in the morning, or
evening, or in cloudy weather. When potted,
they should receive a liberal watering to Bettie
the earth around the roots, end Bet in :he shade
where they will bo protected against drying
winds. A moderato pruning, in most cases,
should accompany re potting. It would be
difficult to give precise instructions for this ;
but as a governing feature, all plants that ore
not climbers should have n short stem end
busby. head ; the head may be thinned so that
the bianChes do not touch each other, and long
straggling branches should be shortened.
Roses that have bloomed freely through the
summer, cannot be expected to bloom again
until February or March, even With the best
treatment. Those who wish to have their ro
ses to bloom well in winter, should keep them
in pots through the summer and pinch off all
the bloom buds before they expand..
