' '‘ ',` 7 r THE RESULT. Now that the smoke of the . conflict has cleared away and all have become , convinced that the Union cause has tri timphed glorionsly, it may be well con sidered what has been decided ‘lifthe American Nation in the great . pcilitic;al contest in which it has been engaged.— The election of a President has under all circumstances been an event of groat Moment. In addition to the personal in fluence that a Chief EXeciutive must neces sarily exercise 'over a 'con tctiy; vitli uti he is always At — the time of his 'elebtion au exponent Of the views of a majority of our people . on questions 44, National policy. This fact always makes our Presidential canvass a. season of intense interestto every citizen. All other ques tions are for a time forgotten and every one is eager to do his utmost to secure the,triumph of that party to which his judgment, or' his prejudice has caused him to attach himself. It is'needless to say that the struggle just over was the most earnest one in which our people have ever engaged.— The men who had stood by the Govern ment through these four long years of blpodshed and civil strife knew well the importance of the contest. They under stood .that a defeat at the ballot...box would jeopardize all that the war had cost us to%lce. They could see no dif ference between a surrender of the au thority of the Government to armed rebels and the displacement of an ad ministration whose authority had never been recognized because of their trea son. They knew that a change of Ad ministration to gratify men whose trea son had deluged the country in blood was not only a base surrender of every principle of right and honor but also an acknowledgement that our Government was a failure and that our people were destitute Of every claim to the respect and confidence of the world. Because of this and because they had entire con fidence in the integrity and ability of' the man who had been tried .d)y an or deal such as has never before tested the virtues of any ruler, did the loyal men of the Country exert themselves to re elect Abraham Lincoln. They have sue ceeded, and but few such triumphs have ever before been the fortune of any po litical party. The people have decided the issues that have been presented to them and their decisions have been a complete vindication of the course of those who have stood by their country in her hour of No man can fail to sec the measures to which the nation has been committed by the result of the last election. It has determined finally that the unity of the Nation shall lie maintained and that our free institutions shall he perpetuated It has decided that the fundamental principle of republican Government shall be preserved -and the will of the major ity shall he respected. It has sanctioned the efforts of the Administration to over come by force whatever treasonable or ganizations may obstruct the enforce ment of the laws or resist the eonstitn. tel authorities of the land. Tt has de clared against any compnunise with tra tors and has demanded their uneond tional obedience to the lawn they have trampled upon and their unqualified submission to a Government t i will(' they owe allegiance. The people have shown that they appreciate the institu tionsJnqueathed to them by their fitters and that they are determined to pre serve them unimpaired as a legacy for their posterity. They have shown too that they are able to discern the true cause of our difficulties and that thcyfully realize what is necessary to cure exist ing evils and to prevent their recurrence. They have seen the terrible consequenc es-of sacrificing right to expediency ; of compromising with a dangerous enemy instead of conquering it.; of concealing instead of eradicating a disease which was preying on their vitals of the body polit ic; and they have determined that this folly shall be persisted no longer.— Slavery, that has for years been protect ing itself under the implications of the Constitution has at last declared itself the open enemy of its protector and the people have determined that it shall no longer curse the land with its presence. Its destruction was commenced by its own Tony but it is consummated by the decision of the people. The decree has gone forth beyond the power of revoca tion that our country shall be saved and that when that salvation is accomplished it shall advance the cause of Right. in- stead of Wrong, of Freedom instead of Slavery Xtm.

It claims iminensesuccesses for the rebel arms in the region west of the Mis sissippi, and insists that they have repaessA themselves of Texas, Arkansas, dna nearly all of Louisiana. .Prico's ,m6vement into Missouri to liberate their oppressed brethren of that State, tyraniisf . id . ded to with evident 'satisfaction. East of the Mississippi, although some disasters arc ad mitted, their general success is claimed as satisfactory. It is clainied' that 'they hold North-western Mississippi, Northern Ala ban a, and Western Tennessee, and that all efforts to overrun this portion of their terri tory have been baffled. The capture of the Mobile defence is all that the Yankees have accomplished within the year by their entire naval for Ce. Sherman has captured Atlanta, but this has Scoured him no advantage. The Federal operations in Virginia haiie been at tended with the must enormous sacrifices of men and treasure without having produced any effect on the Confederady. Sheridan's destruction of the Shenandoah Valley is de nounced as infamous and is claimed as the' expedient of desperation. Mr. Davis winds up this part of his message witli the assertion that the fall of Richmond, Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah, and Mobile, all com bined, will not secure pence without the re cognitiOn of the Confederacy. The foreign relations of the Confederacy are not quite what Mr. Davis desires, and the European nations' are taken severely to task for their disregard of the just, humane and Christian public duty of recognizing the rebel independence. The finance question is next taken up and here everything appears lovely. The report of the Finance Minister, Mr. Davis says, dis closes nothing discouraging, and he thinks that with judicious legislation their resources will enable them to meet all the exigencies of the war. The total receipts of the rebel treasury, for the half year ending, September 30, 1851, were $415,101,510, which added to their balance, gives them a fund $723,474,- 272. Of this fund about $342,550,327 have been applied to the payment of the public debt ; $27'2,370,505, to their expenditures, leaving a, balance of $109,435,420. Their debt is $1,147.970,208, of which $529,340,- 090 are funded. The increase of their debt during the last six months, has been a little over $,16,000,000 per month. There is also a little balance of 2,21)0,000 sterling due on the cotton loan ; but tlrf)y have quite enough cotton on hand to clean that little item oft•. The great trouble with their finances is the deprec•iaticn of the treasury notes, to remedy which a plan is prop, 'sod , the main features of which are substantially these: That the faith of the Government he Idcdgod that the Mlle:: qllllll ever remain 'ex empt t . rlllll taxation. 2,1. That no issue shall be made beyond that which is already au thoriz,sl by law. 30'. That a certain fixed portion of the annual receipts, Iron taxation during the war. shall be set apart specially for the gradual extinction of th e outstanding amount, until it, shall hays' been reduced to 111 1 1 0 11 . 0 0 0 ; and .1 M. The pledge and ap propriation of sue]] proportion of the tax in kind, and for such number of years after the return of peace, as shall be sufficient for the tinalredemption of the entire irc,.tlation.•' A change in the conscription law is recom mended. Exemptions of particular classes of persons are held to be unwise. It is rec ommended that all be subject to enrolment. and that power be given the military au thorities to make details of men who are needed for special kinds of employment at home. Telegraph operators, teachers, engin eers. editors, physicians, &c., should lie sub ject, to enrolment, anti in case ;Illy di,trict .1101.11./ -utter from a lack (4 sufficient num bor of men of these profet.sions, they might be detailed to continue their pursuits. With regard to prisoners of war, we are informed thet there are still difficulties attending ex change but that an arrangement has been 'nude by which each Government can fur nish to its soldiers who have been captured, loud, fuel and clothing. The subject of employing, slaves is treated at length. Mr. Davis recommends that in addition to the labor in the public service, to which they have heretofore been assigned, that they be used also as pioneer and engin eer laborers; and that the number so em ployed ho increased from twenty to forty I thousand. lie recommends the policy of e manci paling the slaves on their discharge after service faithfully rendered. Ile Opposes go ing beyond these employznents and this limit under existing circumstances. Ile contends, however, that their arming their own slaves is justifiable, if necessary ; but denounces our incitement of them to insurrection against their own masters as iniquitous and uncivil ized. The message olpses with a statement of his views on the question of negotiations for pence, which we give in his own terms: "The disposition of this Government for a peaceful solution of the issues which the enemy has referred to the arbitrament of arms has been gm often manifested, end is too well known to need new assurances. But while it is true that individuals niid parties in the United States have indicated a desire to substitute reason for force, end by negoti ation to stop the further sacrifice of human life, and to arrest the calatnities which now afflict both countries, the authorities who control the Government of our enemies have too often and too clearly expressed their res olution to make no peace except on terms of our unconditional submission and degrada tion!, to leave us any hope of the cessation of hostilities until the delusion of their ability to conqUerl us is dispelled. Among 'those who are already disposed for peace, ninny Are actuated by principle and by disapproval and abhorrence .of the iniquitous warfare that.their,Government is waging, while oth ers are movedoby the conviction that it is no longer to the interest of the United States to continuo a struggle in which success is un - attainable. Whenever this fast-growing conviction shall have taken firm root in the minds of a majority of the Northern people, there will be produced that Willingness to negotiate for peace which is now confined to our:side. Peace is manifestly impossible unless.desircd by, both parties .to this war, end the disposition , for .it among our ene mies will be be'st and most certainly. evoked 'hy . thodemonStration'on our part of ability and unshaken determination -to defend' our rightsvantl.to,hold no earthly, price toe dear for their . purchttse.. Whenever there shall, be on the part of, our. enemies 'a desiiT for Peacel there will be no diflicultY' in - finding means by which. negotiation can bo opened, but it is obvious that no agency can be called into action Until this desire shall be mutual, When that, contitigeng shall happen,' the' Government., to 'Which is confined the treaty= making `periver, can be at no loss for means, adapted to accomplish so desirable art end." . , LADIp3' FTlo,sl—Purc4ser@ may rely up -6n getting,fhe best h7uis,at Charles Oakford ScssiContirinpl#otel‘ Philadelphia .am styles , Ai Charles Oa , 4.Cu Scios, (1 pOtioei3ttil Ho tel, , ' POL;' BASIUEL MEDATiY died •Itt Columbus, Ohio, , on' Monday.

We venturt to say that throughout the country, from Maine to Kansas, this is ha general rule, though with hero and there marked ex&Ttions. The vicious and igno rant population' of the cities and manufac turing villages has been for McClellan, while the trength of Lincoln lay in the firming class, and the intelligentclasSes of the towns. Thus in ill hefty, in the First Ward, where arc nearly as many rum-holes as houses, and where in a small space is gathered h fearful amount of wretchedness and pOvert,y, Mr. McClellan has ten to Mr: Lincoln's one, or 2,161 to 213 ; one notorious district of it giv ing the Democratic candidate twenty to the Union ono, or 640 to 31. The Fourth Ward, where are the worst dance-saloons and most murderous haunts of the city, shows nearly six to one for its favo rite,.or 2,810 to 485; one district, (Sixth,) giving twenty-five times as many votes to Gen. McMillan as to his opponent. The Sixth Ward again, once ill-famed for he Fivi Points, and still containing an. aw ul amnunt of ruffianism and vice, tenders he Peace-Democracy nearly-chi:en to one. it 3,457 for McClellan to 329 for Lincoln ; •ome of its wprst districts showing Aventy o ono fc;r tlieir candidate. The Fourteenth Ward, in portions of which are crowds of brothels and rum-shops, runs up its vote some five to one for the Chi cago candidate, 4,229 to qts9. The Eleventh, where are immenAct multi Wiles of ignorant Germans, packed and thronged in lofty tenement houses, and where domicile, the rag-pickers and bone gatherers of New York, testitieg its honor to the distinguished General of the Democracy by 5,532 against 1 , 990, The Eighteenth, where in the eastern por don of which, was the most rioting last Summer, and which abounds with crainnn,tl tenement houses and liquor-shops, and al os t degraded population, nianili•sts its_ dg vnison to pence by giving 4,42 t against 2,- 678. The Seventeenth again, with its crowded German population, and its "AI aekerelvi lle, " rolls up the heaviest majority of any ward for "Little Mae," 7,021 against 8,42.5. We might gn on thus with other districts equally notorious. or equally tilled with a degraded and ignorant linpulation. On the other hand, the Ninth, a most in telligent and orderly Ward, with large num bers of native born mechanics and business pooplo, gives Mr. Lincoln 3,-188 against. 811. The Fifteenth, tinciiii , tionably the, most infelliff,eilt mid iitilorly ward in the oily. shows the only Union majority, 2,124 I itgnin.it. 1,i171).

"iThere are seasons in life when certain truths. make a deeper, impression on the Mind flnin at others. Why this is the case may be partly owing to the fact: that the mind undisturbed by anxious thoughts, and the soul unmoved by violent emotions, the powers of thought-and feeling are at liberty to he concentrated 3n ono point. A truth may always be relatively, of the same importance; but such is the nature of the human constitution, that a truth pre sented to the mind at certain times, fails in/ producing more of an impression than a ball makes when thrown upon the ice. At other times every ,circumstance seems favorable ; the mind is softened by the first considera tion, and gradually embraces the whole. Truly, we are "creatures of circumstnnce.'' There fire ideas which require tedious logic to convince the mind of their truth and power; whiloothers untrammeled by the syl ogisms of rhetoric, are " arrows of truth,'' which enter the understanding in an instant., There are ideas so gloomy in character, that the mind shrinks from their consideration, though it may admit their value as affording profit by way of warning, reproof or correc tion. They aro not willingly dwelt upon, as they bring to mind the sad array of un improved privileges, which, had they been properly employed, might have given a bar vest of worth. An attractive light is not about them, and the mind closes itself t o their influence. Not till reason and judg ment exercise considerable sway, and the mind nature sensitive to the enormity of sin, will the mind indulge freely in their contemplation. Other ideas which, upiin the first consideration, aro unpleasant as the mind opens itself to their free exercise, many cheering phases aro presented, and that which at first was so repulsive, assumes the garb of positive pleasure. To a reflecting mind, the observance of nature, as displayed in the vegetable world, at any season, is calculated to produce thoughts many and varied in character.— Thoughts on the brevity of life, the solem nity of death, and the future which, to the most enlightened, is, in many respects, the great unknown, are of particular appropri ateness, and of natural suggestion, at the present Se nOf the year, as is also a ret ro rpcet ion of Fife sine() the earliest runtent- MEE Upon these topics the mind is almost forced to [,under; for vegetable nature ranking nett ill order to animals, in the scale of ex istence, a bond of sympathy seems to ally the two orders.

The time to mourn their departure was slnirt. If on the path way were seen the leaves fallen from some early blossom, a stop in advance would show a lovely bud justdmrsting its leafy enclosure, giving promise of more beauty in a fully de veloped flower. The emotions Nv h eh kindled in the soul as the rye rested upon theinouvilains, or on the hillsides, rejoicing in their daily acquisition of verdure, or on the lawn of green luxur ance, are disarmed by the utter barrenness and desolation which are gradually taking place; and the wind moaning so piteously through the lattice, seems in genuine sym pathy with nature and with our feelings. On every side where beauty and gladness were displayed, gloom, desolation, and death are being inscribed. Soon ever• tra . ee of pas glory will disappear, and we can only know them in remembrance. Truly has the poet Me •• The meinneholly dnys nre come, The saddest of the year." The insect life is hushed, and the little birds whose rapturous notes waked us from our morning dreams, have flown to a more gentle clime. This reigning melancholy is in utter opposition to.their sweet joyous na- turcs: The south is still as bright and sunny to them as it was before the bugle ,notes, or beating drum were heard marsbitline the hosts to deadly Conflict.

But there are hopes which can afford certainty of their fulfillment ; and that the soul may possess these in all their depth and . power, is the reason Ipr which, it is ,so. fre quently called to moon under the afflictive orderings of "a Father who loved' his chil dren."

Upon looking at the cause, and the future glory, feelings of sadness can be but for ashort time. All have performed the work assigned, and it is mete that rest follow. That which is called death, is but transition—not annihi lation. All must meet death ; and it may be made welcome us the gate through which to pass, to "where the tree of life is ever blooming." . As the life hereafter will partake of the character of the present life, how important it is that the motives which m tuate us in our employments and intercourse with one an other, should accord with the chief end of man. Life certainly should be spent in in telligent action. Knowledge should be sought for with untiring zeal, as it produces such, marked changes in the whole character. The faculty of thought is by this means nourished, and sensual pleasures sink into insignificance. The value of knowledge cannot be estimated. Its influence cannot be confined to the Mind alone. The soul is enlarged, and feelings of interest in all classes and conditions of tuan-, kind are deepened by its possession. The field of knowledge is as wide ;Is vreuti,in, and every encouragement is offered to reap its precious fruits. \\ 'him knowledge is lacking the seeds of error thrive: but goodness is the natural result of its nequirement.

I. hate been very sick indeed in hospital at Riker-ville for the past three w‘ eks with intermittent lever and dysentery, and have been very low; but, thanks to a good consti tution, I ant alive yet, but very weak, and I f cl sometimes as though I will never be the man I was before toy capture. 1 hive been nearly naked for the past six months. and 1. hucc 110 money whatever. I sold my watch and the coat you sent me in the first package to Libby Prison; but the little money I rais ed in that way soon ivcnt. ' Flt , uccur..ed stub which these God-forsaken scoundrels give us for food is enough to tarn the stomach of a Union dog. I wrote you that we were rill kindly treat ed for the reason that something of that kind hits to he written to enable a letter to puss muster with the rebel inspector of letters. In fact we have been better triated hero du ring the past five weeks than at any other time during my imprisonment; but for the first three weeks after our arrival in this place we were huddled together to the num ber of OD in the yard of the common jail, and placed upon the same footing, and ex posed to contact with deserters from both armies, negroes, convicts, prostitutes, and all the vilest trash of this vile town. Wc.were then paroled and moved to very commodious VI - Lidera indeed. We are under ,guard, but are allowed much freedom of action. Our parole restricts tie to the house and grounds and riot to attempt to pass the line of senti nels. Our diet in the jail-yard was principally "Grits" from corn and a little lard. On some days we received corn meal and bacon. Such corn meal and such bacon: Sometimes we received rice with worms in it an inch long and not a whole kernel in a hogshead ; sometimes fresh beef and flour, but these were very rare indeed. Altogether, our ra tions have been better in quantity and (pal its, than elsewhere. At Macon I enjoyed very good health, for the reason, I believe, that we were in the open air. Libby knocked me up entirely. We left there for the South on the 7th of May list, and were confined a short time in Danville. The fact of the rAtOtor is that they have no (04 places in the whole. beggarly= " Con-thiev-eracy" to keep us than this, .and the shells from our batteries conic into the town right merrily. They hare •bronght hero all the enlisted men from Anderson Ville, Georgia, General Sherman having made it untenable by his success at Atlanta. If we can only raise 306,000 good men, 160,000' of thorn to reinforce our armies in the field, the remainder to be held in Instruc tion Camps as a - reserve, we caw wind up this war to a success, very soon. -- Grant, Meade, Sheridan', and Sherman have mere - military 'ability and genius 'than any four generals the rebels eart turn.out.

All the news I have heard has been from "fresh fish " and from rebel newspapers: I have heard about, systematic lying and misrepresentation, and their papers are strik- , • ing examples. The people must be ignOrant indeed to swallow the-lies-of-theirprearbut swallowed they are. Some citizens with whom I have conversed admit that no depend ence whatever can be placed on the papers 'but they are intelligent exceptions. - I have had ocular evidence.that we. have made this- town in about three-fourths its extent a howling wilderness. All the busi ness done here is that pertaining to military affairs. A few miserably, stocked stores are open, but there is scarcely any body to buy, and they can get very little to sell. Blocks upon blocks of fine stores on King St., the principal street, are closed. The sidewalks and roadways are overgr own with weeds more than knee high, and notoa single being is to be; siren for whole squares at a time. Within four squares in any direction of tho building where we are confined there cannot be fienel 20 people in the streets except the sentinrslsl and hucksters coming here to sell milk, etc. • The money you sent will be of much ben efit to indeed. I can now buy vinegar and vegetables to fight the scurvy and some things to cover my nakedness. I have been barefoot since the middle of June. My pants are the seine I had en when captured, arra you may judge of their tattered condition. I have begged a shirt and drawers, and these together with an old rebel jacket make- up •• my Wardrobe. The two blankets you sent tntr were not heavy enough for such usage in the first place, and they are wearing thin now. I will send a list of what 1 wish you to send if lam not exchanged by December. Gen eral Jones will allow us to receive clothing and medicine, but no provisions. 1 received in Libby only the barrel you I sent at first, and the half barrel with dress ing gown, &e. Thelirst I received complete and in good order, lmt of the last I got scarce-- ' ly anything more than the empty half bar— rel. The box sent by Wash. through Lieut.. Paulding I have never heard of. What few articles I bad I gave away to others on the sixth of May last when 1 supposed myself exchanged. I wa, not, however, and was re turned to prison that night, and on the next day was started for Danville, and have been. carted around ever since. Many officers have died of different dfs eases since leaving, Richmond ; but the con dition of the, officers who are prisoners, al though one ofgreat discomfort and privation( is in reality not bad in comparison with 'he suf ferings of our enlisted men confined during the past eight months at A ndergonvi lie, Georgia, and previously at Belle Island, Richmond._ 01' some :15,000 held at the commencement of the present campaign nod captured since,. 10.000 are dead, and of the remaining 2:5,000 not 2,000, if all were to'be ritiW re leifsed and well cared for, would ever be well enough to talo• the field again. At Andorgonville they were furnished with no shelter; their blank ets and money were taken from them by the Confederate authorities, and they were hud dled together to the number of :10,000 in a stockade enelesnre comprising 10 acres, half et' which was swampy ground, untenable and uninhabitable. They were so closely pack -ea within the - onlikiiire that I fil go from one - end to the other one lied to elbow his way through Linen. The rations issued were of corn meal, beans, and bacon-in very small formai ties, and often the meet was rotten, and the MAIII and beans wormy. No cooking utensils were furnished them. But onestrearn of water ran through the camp, and from that all water for washing, bathing, and cook ing had to lie supplied ; and at the same time it was the mil v sink. The average numbeti of deaths per day during the months of July and August was 17.5. While I was in hospital, the prison at Andersonville errs evacuated in consequence of its being uncovered by the fall of Atlanta. nod the prisoners were removed to Savannah• and Charleston. Many died on the trip, and i thw were britight to the hospital where th,, 150 or 100 brought to that he:pital during my stay there, 70 died_ in my sight, and et' the rest not one could live three weeks; many of the number not one week.

It is worse than., folly for the Sanitary Commission or any charitable society to at toinia ti send any articles to prisoners. They never reach those who would be benetitted by thew, and are worse than wasted. The prisoners do not want charity; they want an exchange if it can be effected with no sacrifice to the nation's honor.
