THE RESULT.'
As will be seen by the returns published
in another column, the elections hold last
week in Pennsylvania, Ohio, mid lowa have
resulted in a complete triumph for the Union
cause. The importance of these last politi
cal victories to the party of the Government
can scarcely be over estimated. Whilst the
war was in progress and the Democracy were
committed through their leadc.rs to a course
marked.by opposition to the Govi rnment,
and avOwed sympathy for the rebellion,
there was little fear that the people would
elevate them to power. Their love for trait
ors was too manifest ; their apologies for
treason too out-spoken, and their hostility to
the Government too 'bold and defiant to
admit the supposition that the majority of
the y people could sustain them. But there
are but few men who are incapable of learn
ing; what it is their obvious interest to learn,
and - WO - leaders of the Democracy after tour
years of defeat and disappointment, have nt
length discovered that however agreeable to
their own feelings, the expression of sympa
thy for rebellion may be, it is not very poi- .
itie to embody it in a declaration of princi
ples intended to meet the approval of their
fellow citizens, especially when that rebel
lion has been subdued. Their conversion
consequently was as complete as it was sur
prising. Their fear that the South could not
be conquered vanished, when its armies ser
rendered to those of the Government. Their
admiration for Southern genius, valor and
statesmanship was suppressed, as soon as Lee
and Johnson accepted their paroles from
Union Generals, and Davis and Cabinet re
ceived apartments in a fortress, over which
the national colors waved. Their opposi
tion to the employment of negroes us sol
diers ceased after negro regiments had fought
with the army of the Potomac from the Rap
idan to the James, and had entered in tri
umph the ca, ital ogthe traitor confederacy.
Their support of the "Divine Institution"
gave way rapidly as soon as it was ascer
tained that it was a burden instead of a help
to its supporters. Their slanders of Presi
dent Lincoln ceased, and in tht it stead faint
murmurs of praise were heard as they saw a
weeping nation follow to his untimely grave
the man on whom it had twice bestowed its
highest honors, and when they felt that
some atonement was demanded for the vin
dictive persecutions that instigated his mur
der. The tyranny apostacy and fanaticism
of the boorish tailor of Tennessee were for
gotten, when Andrew Johnson asstuned the
reins of Government and the most fulsome
adulations of the new President and his pol
icy were indulged in, with the vain hope
that he could again be coaxed into the ranks
of his late persecutors, and hand over to
them as afree gift the whole power of the
country. They changed at once from'apoll
ogists for treason to devoted patriots. They
nominated soldiers for offiees to which it
was impossible for them to elect them, hop
ing through their eputation to achieve a
victory by which the soldiers would receive the
honors, and they, ultimately, the spoils.—
They constituted t mine-I VC: , the supporters
of the administration, and announced that
they alone were its friends and that those by
whom it was placed in power were its ene
mies. In fact so completely changed was
the entire aspect of the Democracy that it
was scarcely recognizable (Nen by its own
members. 13st the people who have been
watching - its course during the continuance
of the war were not to be imposed upon by
the garb it assumed when peace wits de
clared. They detected at once the imposi
tion: They saw clearly through the miser
able attempt to gain power. by attempting
to cover up their disloyalty and R , SLIIIIte the
appearance of patriotism. The pretense that
they who had produced the war and whose
disloyalty had protracted it deserved to be
entrusted with the affairs of the Government
in time of peace deceived no WIC, The De
mocracy went before the people with a rec
ord such as never before disgraced a party,
and their overthrow has been complete, and
wo trust final.
'We trust that hereafter those of them
who think the people can be deceived
by loud protestations of patriotism, when
their entire record gives their. the lie will
be convinced that such labor is useless.
There may have been a time when the peo
ple had little enough discernment to be
caught by such shallow pretenses, but that
time is past. The party that withstood the
Government in its hour of trial is doomed.
They may patch up platforms disguising
their real sentiments and avowing those
they have contended against during their
whole lives ; they may profess the' greatest
friendship for the administration ; they may
choose for their present loaders men who
have received honorable scars in the service
of their country,. but all.this will be of no
avail. The people are with the party that
stood by the Government in its hourof
and will never again trust those who in that
hour gave aid and comfort to its foes,

lu 1862 the majority for Siertldtr, Opposi
tion, was 3382. This majority has , been
1)V1EVOIIIC and 16,058 left, and the
twenty-four counties yet to be returned.
From all these we have report- , , but not
ial. The majorities for the Union can
didates in these counties it is believed, Will
exceed five thousand votes. This will give
at least 22,1aJ0 majority for the Union State
ticket in 186' on the himne vote, a majority
exceeding that given in 180-1 for President
Lincoln by both the army and home votes.
Of the return Senators, seven were Union
and four imposition. We have lost none of
the "Wrenn but gained 011 c in Luzerne me the
Boma vide, and are only thirty four votes
short of another 111 Ada 111; 1111 d
It is confidently believed that the thirty-four
majority will be reversed by the linny vote.
If so., the Senate will stand twenty-one
Union to twelve Opposition.
In the House we have not lost one of the
sixty-three Union members of 1804. We
Lace gained one in Adams one in Armstrong
and one in Erni klin and Perry. Our three
members in Lucerne are beaten less than
twenty on the hone. vote, and it is probable
-that this majority will he overcome by the
army vote. Dr. Early, hidependent Demo
crate, defeats Boyer in Clearfield . nd Elk.
The House will, therefore, stand about 30 or
31 to 70 or 60.
On joint ba4 . t the Union majority will be
about 17. crt- Yours, &c.,

INDIANA
An Election was held throughout Indiana
last, Tuesday, but local and county offices
only. The vote was generally light, but the
result a most overwhelming Union triumph.
Even Allen, long the banner 'Democratic
county, which last Fall gave McClellan 4,932
votes to 2,224 for Lincoln, is now said to
haiie gone Republican, by an almost univer
sal stampede of the Germans, who constitute
so large a share of its voting population.—
Fort Wayne,' its capital, which gave over
2,000 Democratic majority at either olection
last year, has now given a Union. majority.
If the German voters can only bo brought to
comproeenci,the truth that Democracy, in
ffialecfmeans .aristocracy; and
4,lmt , the : meanest of ail aristocracies; the
Copperhead vote of all our States will be ma

LANCMITER, Oct 15, 9 I'. M.—Yesterday
afternoon, as the day express east on
the Pennsylvania railroad was wit ,in four
miles of this city an axle of the hind passen
ger car broke, and a part of is striking the
bottom of the car near the front end, tore
out a part of the bottom, precipitating the
occupants of three ate on each side to the
ground, who were'run over by the wheels of
the rear truck. Eight per 0119 were k Iled
outright and another died sonwhours after
wards. Only two others were badly hurt.
The train consisted of seven paseuger
and two haggngc cars. The last four cars
,were thrown off the track, one of which was
turned on its side. N., one in these cars was
scriou ly hurt. The accident occured nearly
opposite Mrs. Kaufmante mill, in a cut in
the road nearly midway between Lancaster
and Landisville. The passengers were im
mediately brought to Lancaster, where
preparations were made to minister to the
wants of the wounded, the entire medical
force of the city being assembled at the
depot as soon as the news of the accident
reached here
Mrs. Batt, one of the killed. was tht. wife
of lion, James I'. Barr, of Pittsburg.,' Sur,
veyor General of Pennsylvania. Col. Butler
(killed) wits whiskey inspector in Philadel
phia. Mrs. Willet (killed) was the wife of
Theodore Willet, New Cumberland, Pa.--
The three children who were with Mrs.
Yvan or Betta, of Milw.tukie, .state that
their father had died in the smith, and that
they were going to an aunt in Philadelphia,
whose name they could not give.
Three females, evidentlya mother and t o

to be recently fronrCalifornia, have nut vet
oven identified. (foe of the girl , may have
been 15 and the other 9 years of age, All

supposed wits somewhat injured internally.
Ile is the only one known to 11,ve received
serious injury.
The, train was running on schedule time,
and at usual rate of speed. The breaking
of the axle, which was the canine of the acci
dent, appears to have been an unavoidable
occurrence.
The officers of the company here have been
active and unremitting in their efforts to
minister to the comfort of the wounded.—
Much difficulty has been experienced in iden
tifying the the bodies of some of the dead.—
The-l Solicitor of the company for this district
has * spared no exertions to F °cure the iden
tification of some of the dead.
Statement Concerning William L
Yancey's Death.
The Nashville Banner makes the following
statement concerning_ the death of William
L. Yancey, which, it appears, was Ca tik2d by
a personal encounter with Senator Hill, of
06orgia, on the floor of the Rebel Senate:
"William L. Yancey came to his end by
violence. It was toward the close of the
second session of the first Confederate Cun
gress that lie broke from the counsels and
influence of Mr. Davis, and became, with
• Mr. Henry S. Foote, a leader of the opposi
tion. Mr. Ben. Hill, a Senator from Geor
gia, had likewise changed his front, and was
remarkable, for. the earnestness, personal in
terest, and persistency with which lie sus
tained. the measures of an administration tcH
which his allegiance had been given but lute
in the-day. Mr. Yancey, it will be remem-
bared, had returned from . an unsuccessful
mission •to Europe, and was representing
l abarnailuthe_Con
question of a navy was under discussion in
secret session. The debate ranged beyond
the pal liumentary limits, and Messrs. Hill
and Yancey became animated over the ab
street doctrines of State Rights and the di
vinity of Slavery. High words pUssed, and
finally the lie was given by Mr.-Bill. Mr.
Yancey-leaped forward, and: as no aimed a
blow at his .adversary; was .qaught in the
arms of the latter and thrown Violently back
over desk. Mr. Hillis a an of wonder

never very heavy, though lithe and active.
In the fall his spine was seriously injured,
and when the bystanders rushed upon the
two and dragged the one from the other, the

OUR COUNTY
ral Fair, which was
and 13th inst., was, ii
attractive Fair eve
F. ars were entertui
so long an interval, consequent on the troub
led state of the country, any attempt on the
part of the Managers of the Agricultural So
ciety to hold a Fair this, fall might prove a
failure; but, they have been, we trust, agree-.
ably disappointed, for in point of numbers,
and perhaps display, the'success has been
more decided than even its most sanguine
advocates could have anticipated.
In agricultural productions, as well as of
certain Id oils of stock, the contributions were
not as large as in former years ; but the ex
hibition of Farming Implements was quite
extensive, embracing all the a micro im
provements and inventions in that branch of
industry, while the display of horses war fur
superior to any sse have ever had in C•um
berl.•wd county.
Our limits will hardly'allow a detailed ac
count of all the contributions to the Fair ;
we wish, however, to do justice ;x 11, and if
the names of any are omitted, or their arti
cles lack a full description of their merits, it
must be attributed, in somercases, to the ab
sence of the owners, and in others to the
immense crowd, which, surging backward
and forward, serierorly interfered with a
careful examination of th • various specim e ns
of mechanical skill.
As we passed hastily through the grounds
on Wednesday, we found the sheds for horses
and cattle ; farm products and
implements also in the places designated for
them, and "Mechanical Hall - glittering wi(I)
a tine display of articles useful as well as or
namental; and the number present was un
usually large for the first day of the Fair.—
Thursday, however, was the,. gala-May.
an early hour the streets were tilled with
every species of vehicle, bringing in our
country friends, and the trains „East and
West ClllllO in loaded to their utmost capa
city with visitors. Throughout the day the
grounds were literally thronged. The pres
ence of several thousand ladies, the music of
two bands, the sports of the "ring, - and the
plaudits of the crow, I, a., the -fast nags" sped
around, rendered it a scene gaiety and
unirnation, which must have been seen to be
fully appreciated.
NVe were glad to see that the Managers
had enlarged the Tim/ Coarse, and we hope
the success of this year has given the Society
means, as well as encouragement,
till further improvements and additions t. - .
the grounds for future exhibitons.
The importance of these annual fairs to the
agricultural and mechanical interests of the
county, cannot he overrated ; and we feel
assured that the Managers have the liberal
ity, enterprise and enthusiasm neve,mry to
curry thew successfully forward, if their ef
forts are seconded in a proper wanner by the
e.lizen , . Largo-hearted Phil .nt ropy rand
public spirit are the only elements ul ' succ,'s
in such instjtutiuns, 111 - 1(1 it' every ono who
haw ac interest in this matter will conic tip
to the
_work, " Old Mother Cumberland"
will be able to present a display at our next
Fair, unequalled by any other county in the

AG RIC ULTU 11 AJ, IMPLEMENTS
This Department exhibited quite a variety
of implements: some of thorn so well known
to um , farmers as to require no description
here, other, again remit invention.
Among the Arst we uuticod, was n GOiSerS '
t. Self Regulating- limntr, Ow, Cleaner,
,Lll4 Bagger," :011,11111 . enured at Wayncsbor,r',
r•uikliu enunty. It ninny be attached to our
O,IIIIIIOYI horse power, and will thresh and
e:ean front HO to 175 bushels per day.
Parlons & Harris, of the Novelty Works,
I Ia rris Durg, contributed several specimens of
their manufacture, among which we noticed
the Hay, Straw, and Seat!: Crimhe r and
ter. This Cutter ii said to have important
advantages, as it Inco . rs economy in,fring
stock. It is simple in its construction Ind,
a-dly kept in repair. This firm also htd on
ti
.•x.hihition one of Wheeler's Improved Rail
way Llorse,Powers, and an Improved Thresh
er & Cleaner. They also exhibited one of
!love's Improved Scales; Lillie's Patent Iron
Mes ; a Pant Cider Mill ; Corn Sheller ;
and Patent Wagon Jack.
:liner, Walls, Shriner & Co., had on exhi
oakhe Buckeye Mower & Reaper; W P.
A st o w of Chant bei , burg, mum ed the 'LT ii
.. tin" Separator; E. & (.1 Daron, of Do.
V , York en., exhibited a Self-Raking Reap
er& Mower , Sim i man 'b Improved Iron
Retinal & Mel\ er, with, self-raking attach•
ment, was also placed on exhibition by
Brough &Co East Berlin, Adam- county
Walker's _Patent Rockaway Hulse Hay
Rake, was placed on exhibition by Moldier
& Kauffman, of York co ; a Patent Stump
Extractor, was exhibited by Hugh Hawkins,
01 Centro co. ; A. J. Kutz, agt , of this place,
had on exhibition a /Eas e Power and Du evil,
tag Madam, with Patent Sleeker. The Shaker
rung easily, effectually separating the chaff
and grain from the so aw, but Mr. Katz is
so well known to our Minims as it, manufac
turer in, this branch of busidess, that a more
reference td Oast; articles is sufficient.
C. Robert & Co., of East Bailin, exhibited
a Buckeye Reaper and Mower, and also a
- Belf-Discharging Rake, which seems to of c
rate very well. Samuel Plank had one of
Plank's Improved Plows, with shifungbeam,
G
aim ith,,,t,rain ()ladle Plan ler, Plows are
too well known to 'Nun 6 special 4 ascription
A Cutter Plow was also placed on exhibi
tion Ly A.B. Zeigler; aPm in Wagon, man
ufactured by Wen F mull, was very much
admired as an elegant specimen of that kind
of work: (A To Morrison had, as usual, a
great variety of agricultural implements- at
the fair, among which we, noticed Gales'
Patent Cuffing Bore, a Thi eshutg Machine, a
Wind Mill, Corn Planter, &a, Mr. Morrison
has been engaged so long here in the sale
and manuthetine of these articles, that a mete
reference to his contributions is' all that is
necessary.
F. Gardner ,& Co. had the colebiated. IVa
/ouplly Groin Drill, which, wo believe, is
not 'excellcd, ;nor perhaps equalled, by any'
eimilny mac:Mina ne the country. This firm
lias so many "irons in the tire," that WO ex
pected more dontributiona from it.
A limed Corn Shelter and Separator' Was
exhibited by . Nathaniel Drake. It seems to
be well adapted to the purpose, and ought to
be extensively introduced.
Several Washing Machines were pieced
on exhibition among which we may mention
'Etter & Newinan's,"Hutching & Leach's,'
and ' Gotwalt's,' They all seemed to he of
equal utility. the'S hoic, we were pleased
to see such a variety of machines, .although
souse of theta were so complicated that they
rather gut us.
A very fine open Buggy was on exhibition,
manufactured by G. Schrader, of Mechan
icsburg; and two handsome Buggys, by A.
1. Gist, of Hanover. We prestinie our own
Coach make s were kept so Busy filling their
orders, that they had no time to mike up any
thing in that one l'or the Fair.
