RESULT OF THE ELECTION Tho result of the eleetiah held last Tues day in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana has determined fully that the Union cause will triumph in November nexta Of course at the present writing, we are unable to give the exact result but all the indications are that we have carried the whole three States on the home vote. In our own State the vote is a close one, and it may require the official returns to determine which of the parties have a majority on the popular vote, exclu sive - 9f the votes of the gofdiers. Enough is known, however, to make it cell sin that we have gained three or far members of Congress and have a majority in the State Legislature. The vote of the soldiers will undoubtedly give us a majority of from fif teen to twenty thousand. In the other States our success has been decided. Indiana re-elects Guy. Norforiby a greatly increased majority and gives us seven out '''bf the eleven members of Con gress, a gain of three. Ohio has given nt least forty thousand majority for us on the home vote and elects about sixteen Cnion members of Congress in a delegation of aim teen. This is a gain of at least twelve - gressmen in this State. This result is gratifying in the highe4 de gree and insures the election of President Lincoln beyond a doubt. We had not the remotest hope that we could carry Indiana the Democracy claimed it most confidently. But they underrated the loyalty of-that gal- lent State. She has come up to the work nobly and has recorded her voice in favor of the Union and the Govern meat. This destroys the last hope for McClellan. In all the estimates his friends were . inaking they had counted on Indiana surely and4y no calculation could they figure up a nudori ty without her vote. Now their chalices n,r carrying either Indiana or Pen 11 , ylvanis are gone beyond recovery and their defeat is o inevitable as it is deserved. Let every • friend of the Union take courage fr om tli.• result of last Tuesday and go cheerfully, ail earnestly to work. We know that we will succeed but let us make our:success a triumph. We elected Abraham Lincoln President four years ago by en enormous majority of the popular vote in the States voting for him and wo can make his majority just as groat now if we will. Ms years of labor aril care fur our interests; his patriotism and fidelity to the cause of his country, and the ability with which he has conducted our Government in this terrible storm of treason and civil war deserve for him this triumph. And our country's best interests ; the main tai mice of her institutions and the overthrow of her traitorous foes demand that his majo rity be triumphant and overwhelming. WE CAN !%lAIiE IT SO AND WE WILL. Result in the County 'We have not been able to ascertain the vute on our County Ticket at the time of going to press. We suppose the average Democratic majority may reach 700. We give below the majorities for Glossbrenner and Bailey as we have received them up to this time. The figures show that the calcu lations of our Democratic friends upon 1200 majority have been seriously interfered with. Glossbrentacr. Bailey. Carlisle, E. Ward, 102 {W.

In Philadelphia the Union ma jority for Sheriff is above 7000 a gain of near ly .700 on Curtin's majority of last y' r. In other districts_ in the State. we have lost, but we have not the slightest doubt that we have, carried the State on tha t boine vote by sever-. al thousands.

For several days previous to the eventful evening, the ciiiiiiiiittere - 01: - N. 0. B. were busily engaged in ferretting out the imps of the modern Democracy- throughout the sur rounding country, who, tria , to their natural instincts, responded cheerfully, fearfully, and diabolical ly. The early part of the evening was spent by the permanent N. 0. 8., in getting up the trequisite aniount of steam. to give their friends from abroad an appropriate reception. About cluck deli•gation No. 1, consisting of a burly supporter of "Little Mac" from the Lower End" arrived, and driving up to the hotel, demanded, with a G—d d—n you, lodging fur a Mac horse, and a Mac man ; at the same time, he changed his base and exhibiting a revolver exclaimed: "G —d d—n you, don't rotten egg me." Of course, the respectable people of Church town, hav ing no thought of making any such demon stration, were taken considerably aback by this announeemi•nt. Delegation N. 2 wai: a Rev. gentleman, who, according, to the Rebellion Record, met the -advaneing forces of Gen. Jeyikins last year at Mt. Rock with Open arms. It is a fact worthy of notice, that he was the Mas ter of Ceremonies for the evening. Didegation No. :1 a cAinglomeration of the fagends of all the defunct political par tie-:that have isted nithin the last twen ty years. Their behavior on arriving, was similar to that Of the burly delegation from the "Lower End." They were from various parts of the county. The machine, having now got on a full head of steam, was ready for action, when the /?,si,/,rill F//4,1/0/1 ismted the following proclamation: Tindall the Democrat; Aould come out. from am o ngst the IThion men, so that, in its any mi , -dlos wore thrown, they could use tire arm , without danger to their own clan, The dilforenee in the two rartiv , rendered this unnocessary. as the ni,ill men are peaceful and law abiding eitizem , , who would never ru degrade theinselve , a.; to di,- turl) evt , n nn opp,cdte inept ing. 11'1E11 , W:001y artcr, tit nntelline slart, , l and "the thing \vont on.'' 11,4: being nn ellielent fireman, Itept, the tanner me• branelt furnace: \yell Nvith the ‘•electrie that pre , ently the ma ebine began G, travol in , t. that, the may 11 1 1..:111,1 I/1 ba•ann•tien pr,,vided 1 1111- fi111...1 1111111 y, 1111.11.)11 1 . 1" bet ,‘,l, theta-elve,, tn their "all four,. llnvin.2., r.•Ji•ll,l <nl•h n eritical jiim:turt., it wn, prukkut the machino of it: ,tiperali tho .)Laster td .

With a very few cuts and thrusts, General Logan made shreds of the last of the resolu tion lies in the Chicago Platform:—" the sympathy of the Democracy is heartily and earnestly extended to the soldiers of the. army and the 'seamen of the Navy." He said: " In what way do they sympathize with us? By resolutions that the army is a noble band of patriots, that the war hits been suc cessful, and they aro proud of the army No, sir. They say the war is a failure. Do they congratulate us because we have plant ed our flag in every Southern State? They say we did no such thing. Do they sympa thize with the widows and orphans of those men slain in battle? Nut with one of them. Is it ever by visiting the army and associat ing'with the soldiers and officers? If so, I have failed to see them. I want any num to tell me 'when Pendleton or Vallandigham, except the time ,he was sent through the lines, or Wood, or Itynders, or Belmont, or Richmond, orßobinson, or Allen, or any of the rest of them,:have ever come to - see: the army and take the hand of the soldier..

Which Shall Go bown, Slavery or the Government• The Union candidate for the Vice-Presi dency, ANDREW Jonztsox, addressed a great ' meeting at Logansport, Indiana, oxi . Tues day last. Ho riddled the false Democracy that made the Chic ago nominations, and let sunlight in upon' the treason that; lurks be= , ncath the 7.ifcClellan scheme of armistice and the trick of a convention of the States. A speech, statesman-like for scope and pow er, was wound up with the presentation of numerous evidences that the politicians of the South had rejected the idea that a people is capable of self-government, and were bent on establishing an aristocracy ur monarchy, involving the subjugation and Slavery of the Mass of the people, white as well as black ; that this was the object of the present Rebellion ; and that in this object•" they had the sympathy aml secret support of the lenders of the Southern Democracy. llc cat himself manfully and square-breast ed against the influence that would save the Shivcocracy by saving Slavery, in these yds: "These men at.

Very truly yours, L. E.

I know Old Abe, and I tell you there is not at this hour a more patriotic, or a truer man living than that man Abraham Lincoln. Sonic say that he is,an.,imbecile ; but he nut only held his own in his debates with Douglas, whose power is admitted, and whom I considered the ablest intellect in the United States Senate, but got a litttle the better of him. has been deliberate an slow, but x ,wh en ho puts his foot down, it is with the determination and certainty with which our generals take their steps, and like them, when he takes a city, ho never gives it up. The firm old man is noble and kind hearted, he is a child of the people. Go to him with R story of woe, and ho will weep like a child. This man, so condemned, Works more hoUrs than any other' President that ever occupied the chir. Ilis li.olicitudo for the public welfare' is never-ceasing. I diff ered from him nt first myself, but, at last felt and'believed: that ho was right; and shall vote for this: brave, true, patriotic, kind hearted man., All his faults, and mistakes, :y.on Alava seen.. All his virtues you never can know. :Hifi patience in laborls wonder ful. plle-Works far harder than any man in Erie 'County. —4t.tho lead of this great na tion, look Lat it: 'he has all the:bills •to sign passed' by Congress.. No one can .be ap pointed to any office without his 'approval ;' no oi4o Pti.n be ,punished without the 'jlidg 'mcut . rebeives , his % signatures, and no ,one pariloned without his, hand. This'.man, al ways,:ti.ght,:allways jpstf wepropose now to re-elect to the Presidency. To swap off such a man as this, my countrymen; for McClel lan, idle, incompetent, and unwilling, would, in my opinion, be a devilish poor trade."

In the same connection he spoke of the soldiers of Alabama. They lied fought everywhere, and well. They were still undaunted. Their example should be the price and glory of the State, rid an eloquent appeal to those who were vet behind. Mr. Davis spoke eloquently of the horrors of war and the SU flerings of the people. He desired pence. lie had tried to obtained it, and had been rudely repulsed. Ho should still strive, and by the blessing of God and the strong arm of the soldiers, yet hoped to obtain it. It there be those. who hoped to outwit the Yankees, and by smooth words and fair speeches, by the app9irance qf a wil lingness to treat or to listen to reunion, hope to effect any certain candidate in the North, they deceive themselves. Victory in the fold is the surest .element of- strength to a peace party. Let us win baffles, and wo shall have overtures soon enough. Is there a man in the South in favor of reconstruction'! Mr. Davis drew a lino picture of ..the horrors of reunion, which means subjujation. "All that I have to say," he exclaimed,' in concluding, this portion of his remarks, "is that the man who is in favor of this degradation is on the wrong side of the line of 'battle." Jeff.

But friends .are drawn together in' adversity. The son of a Georgian, who fought through the first Revolution, I would be untrue to myself if I should forgot the State in her day. of peril.- - What although misfortune has bethllen oar arms from Decatur to Jonesboro, otir cameo Is not .16st.

How can this be the most speed ily effected? By the absentees of Hood's army returning to their posts ; and will they not? i Can they see the banished exiles; can they hear the wail of their suffering country women and Children and note come?. By what influences they are made to stay away it is not necessary to speak. If there is one Who will stay away in this hour he is un worthy of the name of Georgian. To the women no appeal is necessary. They are like the Spartan. mothers ofold., I know of one who has lost all her ions, exeapt one of eight ears. She wrote that she wanted me to re serve a place for him in the ranks. The venerable General Polk, to whom I read the letter, knew that woman well, and said it MIS characteristic of her; but I will not weary you by turning aside to relate the va rious incidents of giving up the last son to theeimseof our country known tome. Wher ever wo go we find the hearts and hands of our noble women enlisted. They are seen wherever the eye may fall or the step turn.. They have one duty to perform—to buoy up the hearts of our people. I know the deep disgrace felt by Georgia of our army falling back from Dalton to the interior of the State. But I was not of those who eonsidered Atlan ta lost when our ann,/ crossed the Chattahoo chee. I resolred that it should ?tot, and I then put a man in cymmand who I know would strike a manly ]Clow fur the city, and many a Yankee's blo.rwas made to nourish the soil before the prize was won. It does not heroine us to revert to disaster. Let the dead bury the dead. Let us, with one arm and one effort, endeavor to crush Sherman. I ant going to the army to confer with our generals. 7'he end nuts, be the defeat of our enemy. Tt has been said that I abandoned Georgia to her fate. Shaine upon such false hood.

Dispatches received last night ;.how the fulfillment of this expectation. Major-Gen. George 11. Thomas was sent to Louisville to Organize the troops in his district, and drive — Rii'rCst — froin our lines, while the attention or Getl. Shernnut was di rected to the movements or` the uurin rubel army in the vicinity or Atlanta. On the 4th of October the rebels had cap tured Big Shanty, but were followed closely up by Sherman, on the Uth. A severe en gagement was fought by our forces under General French, in which the rebels were driven from the field with ho ivy loss, leav ing their dead and wounded in our hands. :Details aro given in tho following dispatch oti from Gen. !Thomas : NASEIVILLE, TENNESSEE, Thursday, October, 6-11.30 P. M., f Hon. E. .111.,Stanton Secretary of TVai' : The following telegram is just receive( from Chattanooga : General Smith, who left here yesterday, 6 inst., telegraphs that the enemy retreated last evening from Alatoona, moving in the direction of Dallas, leaving his dead and four to six hundred wounded in our hands. Our loss was about one hundred killed and two hundred wounded. The Remelt bridge will be repaired by to morrow, and thb trains will be able to run as far as Ahttoona, going _kilt Cleveland and Dalton. Nothing further—has been heard from Sherman since my dispatch of yester day ; but the retreat of the enemy towards - Dalton indicates that he was close on their rear near Alatoona. I have-- not heard from Gene. Rousseau or WashbUrne to=day, but presume that they aro pushing Forrest as rapidly as the condition of the reads will admit. We have had heavy and continuous rains for the last five days, rendering the roads-- anrstrearns almost impassable. I have just received the following dispatch from Gen. Granger, dated Hunts Ville, 10 Y. M.,.otb. The courier, reported drowned crossing-the Ellc. - River; icin. He lest the 'dispatches while crossing the river. He re ports that two rebels were captured yester, day,- who say that they left Forrest at Law- , rencebuth the'night before crossing South. Gen.

The action yesterday was severe, French at tacking with his division, stiv'en thousand strong, and sdffering heavily, leaving his killed and won nded in our:hands to themun ber of ono thousand, while we, lost only three hundred. The fight lasted .six hours altogether. From Florence we hCar that Morgan has Forrest cornered, has captured his transportation, and that the gunboats prevent all retreat across the Tennessee." Sittisfavtory reports of the operations in progress /before Richmond and Petersburg have been received, but their details are, not nt prestmt proper for publication. A dispatch from General Ste,yson re ports that an officer of Gen. Sherldan's staff had just arrived. Gen. Sheridan was still at Harrisonburgh. His supply trains Were Going on all right, occasionally interrupted by guerrilla parties, the only rebel force on the road. This officer 'brought in the remains of Lieut..

VA., Multi ight, Oct. 9. T Lieut.-Gen. Grant, City Point: In coming back to this pojnt, I was not followed up until late yesterday, when a large force of cavalry appeared in my rear. I then halted my command to offer battle by attacking the enemy. I became satisfied that it was only all the rebel cavalry of the valley-, commanded by Itossuit, and directed To R ETT to attack at daylight this morning and finish this "savior of the valley." The attack was handsomely made. CCSTAR, commanding the Third Cavalry Division, charged in the back road, and MERRITT, commanding the First Cavalry Division on the Strasburg pike. MEIMITT captured 11ve pieces I f artillery. CusTAK captured six. pieces of artillery with caissons, battery forge, &c. The two divisions captured for ty-siiven wagons, ambulances, &c. Among the wagons captured are the headquarters wagons of Itossmt, LomAx, WICKMAN, and Col. fom.Ann. The number of prisoners will be about 3A9. The enemy after being charged by our gal lant cavalry were broken and ran. They were followed by our men on the jump 26 miles through MonntJackson and across the north fork of the Shenandoah. 1 deem it' best to make this delay of one day here and sett le this new cavalry General. The eleven pieces of artillery captured to day make thirty-six pieces enp,t ured in the Shenandoah Valley since the 19th of Sep tember. Some of the artillery was new, and never had been tired.
