Brit el; tthip dtbstrbtr, ISIS, PA SATURDAY MORNING, NOV. 10, 1855 The IhrethxeL 110:1 New York voted on Tuesday, but in the con fused Mete of parties, it is almost impossible to tell "who is who" at the present writing. One thing, however, we can see, and that is that spurious Republicanism, of which Senator Seward is the father, and Tharlow Weed the wet-nurse, is completely floored. It has met a Waterloo defeat; and whether it turns oat that the Demo crats have carried the State, or the Know Noth ings have, it matters very little Sectionalism has been rebuked, and a dangerous party anni• hilated. But to return to the result The chan ces, aa indicated by the returns received, are that, while the Ha r d a nd z_:,•fts branches of the Demo. crsey have unitedly a large majority in the State, the Know N‘ithiags have, elected most of their ticket. It may be, tiowever„that this opinion is premature, and that the returns from the "Rural districts," will bring the Softe out ell right. Wisconsin voted the same day; but we have but few returns: Such. as they are, however, in dicate the success of the Democrats, and another defeat of spurious Republicanism'. New Jersey, also. voted on Tuesday, and we believe it is conceded the Democrats have carried it, thus securing the U S Senator to be elected this winter. Elections in Maryland and Louisiana also took place this week, but from neither are the returns definite. Baltimore sad New Orleans, have both been carried by the Know Nothings; bet the Want* of both States, we predict, will show a pretty clean Democratic record. United Stated Seat= In view of the fact than almost every county in the State has already furnished a candidate fur the Senate of the United States, we feel more than usual diffidence in proposing another name for the codsideration of the Democratic majority in the next Legislature. If, however, as is gen erally conceded, in a multitude of counsel there is wisdom, it may be that with a multitude of candidates the Legislature will nit fail to select a person pre-eminently qualified to fill the post made vacant by the expiration of the term of the Ron. JAMES COOPER We, therefore, submit the name of the Hon JAM ZS THOM PSON, of Erie, as a candidate. We do so, however, without con sulting him in regard to the matter; and wheth er be will thank ns for thus making use of his name, we do not know, or oare We believe, however, that every man should be willing to serve the people when called, and also that it is the duty of the press to see that the best talent iethe State is brJught out fovea office of so much impcirtanoe as the one under consideration.— We do not, individually, consider the fact of a osndidate'e living in the East or the West a matter of much consequence; yet as some of our brethren of the press appear to think so, and as it is very generally conceded that the next Sena tor will be taken from the West, Judge THUMP son's location, his intimate connection, politi, Bally, socially, and professionally, with the peo ple of the West, gives him additional claims to the consideration of his fellow citizens in that locality, and point unerringly to him as THE size for the occasion. Rut this is not his only claim. Pclkili*Lkaistfil f PG ibr sof beio °racy of the State With an intellect at once cultivated and brilliant, and an address which alike wins friends, and disarms opponents, babas made his mark in whatever field he has boon ed to act. As Speaker of the House of Repre sentatives of the State, though then the youngest man that had ever been elected to that responsible position, he showed himself at all times an efficient officer and a ready and effective debater. After wards, when called by the people of this district to represent them iu Congress----in which posi tion be served them six years, having been three times elected by decisive majorities—be was by common consent. placed by his compeers in that body among the leadieHg statesmen of the times; and during his last term of service, was chair man of the most important committee in the House.—that of the Judiciary. The claims of Judge Taoxreots then, are, that he is a Demo crat; a Democrat, too, of tried integrity, and un yielding &mats. He is a Western man, if the question of locality is to enter into the contest. ifs is also a ,man of talent; a ready debater, a sound thinker, and an orator by DO means infe rior to any now occupying seats in the body to which we propose his election. We bare heard some of the first orators of that body—.including Caas, and Toombs, and Bell, and Badger, and Clayton, and others,---and wecan truly say that Judge TlioNtreori is their equal in all respects. But his beat; qualification is his experience; for without experience the first intellect in the coun try is for a time powerless in the Senate In view of all these facts—the wants of the State— and the exigencies likely to wipe in the future, we think there is no man named for the position who will gist more general satisfaction, or whose election would relleet more honor upon the State, than Judge Tuomrsox. I=l AIL The Gazette calls our attention to the feet that there is one "great want" which it is in fa vor of "all the time;" and that "want" is pro tection. if its "wants" are never supplied until the doctrine of "protection" is recognized as the ptaiey of this country, it will "want" till dooms ,day, that's oertain.

JlllOlll/41 mil& an becoming nry ememos sinew ths ed ema of its simian Republistaisal Wt of die Patent While the various Letitia' into which the op politics of the Demonntay have beam rent by the desnoralisatioa of defeat, sad tie• acia-fallilhaest of pledges made to obtain their me ephemeral suooeset, are oonsoling themselves with the falla cious idea that the Democratic party will MA kle able to rally in unbroken frost around the stan dard of their Soiniaer for President nest year, it may not be amiss to review the political field, and se e upon what oomma ground that opposi ti can itself hope to stem the asset of the hosts o f Democracy, or eves make a reepsetableshow of opposition. But first let us look at our own house bold, a little. The Democracy, like all vie torious parties, has its troubles sad trials; but they are the troubles and trials of details, and not of principle. They spring rasher from the dispensation of patronage than from assets-1 adaptation of their principles and measures to ) the wets and wishes of the people of the Union. ; It would be strange, indeed, if we had no camp- followers; and stranger still, if when the maw of such leeches are not satiated by patronage, they suould not turn their guns upon those who have cheated them of their spoils But the injury such malcontents can do the party is but *belt at any time; and benee has now very nearly spent its force, and by the mere lapse of time, i alit were, will be entirely harmless in 1856 Last year this kind of oppo-ntiou was in full life and vigor It showed itself in the formation of the Know Nothing party, and by the help of all the other elements of opposition it succeemied in , driving the Democracy to the wall in various lo calities. But that was nearly the aid of its pow • er, as the results of the elections this Fall fully prove. Faction is abort lived, when the people see the motives of the Ueda:lista. The coin-1 plaints and,denunciationeof the mere casp-follow er is powerless to inffuenoe to injure, when mice his aim is apparent. Hence we argue that as time has been allowed for the people to take a calm "sober second thought," sad as those who opposed the Democracy last year because of some fancied grievance, originatingin sinister motives, have been very generally repudiated at the late elections, the prospects of the party for the cam paign of 1868, are by no means as gloomy as our opponents would fain make us believe. Bat how stands it with them? Upon what grounds can they look for even an unbroken front, mach less success, in an effort to take the reins of government from the hands of the Dem- ocratie party! Under what leader will they make the assault? Upon what principlels will they cloim the votes of the people? Ile must be wise above his day and generation indeed, who, after surveying the present distracted and demoralised state of the opposition, can see one ray of light ahead, or even one ground of hope! Anti -Ne braska has failed, signally 4iled, as a national issue. Oonfessedly it will loose to the opposi tion the entire South; while as a sectional ele ment, to carry the North, facts sad resulted° not justify any great faith in its ultimate @Stacy! Know Nothingism, that worst of all modern heraeiese, reached its flood tide last year and is noir:ebbing, but unlike the sea, it will never roll its waves shorewavd again. It has been tried and fisted wantwg. Making load professions of purity, it has been proved impurity itself. Claiming to reflect the will of the people, and not the wishes of mere politicians, it has shown itself to be the very hot-bed of political chicanery and carroptioo. Setting up for its standard the mot to tk9 1 41..,:.: 011 114 israingers have been one costinual scene of office seeking broils and con tention! Claiming to discard the party hacks of both the old parties, it has proved itself to be the mere hospital for the sick, the wounded, and the worn oat of all the factions that the hope of spoils has created Can a party with such a his tory hope to suooessfally strike a blow at the Democracy in 1856? The answer is plainly no! It can do nothing by itself. It only has power as a satellite! But an effort is making in some parts of the country, sad particularly in Penn sylvania, to unite alt them elements upon a sin gle platform, and a single candidate. Can such a result be aocomplished? Who will be the man, and upon what common ground can such antagonistic elements meet, and fuse is hareem pious action? Is the arch demagogue of New York, Senator Seward, capable of seeoseplish ing such a political amalgamation? Can Chase, of Ohio, do it? Can Johnston, of Pennsylvania? Can Hale, of New Hampshire? Can Gardner, Maemettuataia? In short, is there one mind among the entire brood of factional politicians that has that hold upon the mantes seessary to command somas, even were there so disturbing elements to overcome! The history of their poet political lives answers most unequivocally is the negative. What then can the opponents of the Democratic party expect, when there is not one common bond of union between the half dossn bands into which they are divided. With these facts before us, the answer to the question, "What of the Future," is plain. The nominee of the Dementia party for Presidents in 1856, will have a clear field, and hence will be elected. Who that nominee will be, we are not *boat to answer. The time for that has not arrived; nor will it until after the Congress which meets next mood shall have developed is. poli cy, and thus indicated the meanest heresy against whieb'the Demoervy will have to combat. But this much we may with safety swam; the Stateeentas who will lead the Demoormis home in 1 f 456, will be a man o(tried integrity, alfuntiack big firmness, sad a consistent supporter of the Constitution and its compromise,. He will be a statioaal man in the fall aeeeptatioa of the word; and while he will be asmact"beekbeine," to ma word from the womb/glary of oar opposites, it will not be that kind of "baekbotte" which see/u to knew a North without a South, or a South without a North.

There can be little doubt that the Denmark Sound Dues question, is destined to excite far more extended attention than was at first sur mised, and it is highly !mailable that were not the principal peyote of Europe at present busied with .weiu put upon upon the matter. In the Journal des of the 12th Oct., we find tho following from the Baltic Gazette: "The efforts which Denmark has made to ac quire the support of the Western powers in her disagreement with the United States, have suc ceeded to a certain point. The French govern ment maintains in effect the principle that the question - 6f the payment of the Sound Does is an European question, and that it cannot be set tled by separate negotiations between Denmark and other States in particular, but only by a Congress in which every State interested must take part. As the treaty between the United States and Denmark expires in a few mouths, it is possible that this Congress will soon be la sembled. Meanwhile only preparatory arrange ments will be made, so that after the re.establish went of peace Russia may also take part in the definite arrangements. It is generally reported that is this question Denmark is endeavoring to sepevate di, Baltic States from the other Euro pean powmk. Denmark will, if reduced to the lest extreulity, yield the Sound Dues, but only on condition that an indemnity be made by all the united 13altie States." We give the above as we find it. It has a color of troth, and doubtless expresses what France would gladly do, if expedient. Meanwhile, it cannot be denie d there lies at the bottom of the Sound Dues question a principal which not only concerns /ramie and the reef of Europe quite as much as ourselves, but even more so. It is whether feudal precedent, traditios and political prescription is to be recognised as superior to the active and positive interests of a world which is every year becoming more and more a strictly hairiness community? In other words, the questi on is—are the Bithitrdues claimed on the ground of prescription, or as an equivalen for expenses incurred and for benefits bestowed.—lf the latter, all that remsins is to settle the terms, but if the former, we have a question which- very nearly cower= all Europe, and which copilot but pro ds*, the most astounding results.—Let the prin ciple of middle ace precedent and the ebstrect right of prescription be eliminated from the pre sent European code of international law and we shall lies the beginning of a movement which will go further towards upsetting the prevent order of European institutions than any other question now on the political phew board. The tendency of the age is in this direction, for business and commerce are diametrioally opposed in every imaginable partite:der to middle age traditions, grounded on that bygone right of the strong band which is now weak and trembling. We can read 11y understand that in snob a state of affairs, Denmark would aro& prefer a separate treaty with the United States, and on separate grounds frees 'her negotiations which the kindoins of Europe,—Phil.

P. IC. to the excursionists to Jeffersee City. We have no at command to express oar feelings.-- Never dwe receive or have occasion to record tuff& shocking intelligence. The gentlemen who bring the sad tiding. were on their way to the city as passenger, on the Ben Bolt, and saw the train of cars pass up with the cnatpany on board and exebaaged saletaeloos.— The boat soon came to a lauding. and the train proceeded on to the Gasconade river, about eight miles distant. Before the boat was ready to leave. a locomotive which bad followed the tram for the purpose of rendering assistance in the case of se eidetic or of seeing that all was right along the road. came back from the river with the word that the bridge over the Gasconade. standing thirty five feet above the water. bad broken down whale the train was crossing. and that ten or eleven ears with their occupants bad been precipitated into twenty feet water. The consternation of the men with the locomotive was so great that they could barely announce the fad. only adding that they thought at least one hundred and fifty had got out of the cars to walk over the bridge. There were probably five hundred persons in the company.— Two of our militia) , companies were along, the Grays and the National Gnarls.—as were also many members of the press sad private citizens. The locomotive came dorm to the train bound for St. Louis. which was immediately taken by the Superintendent and hi. men back to the scene of suffering. and may have been the mean, of saving many lives. Mesa's. Rumbolt and Bishop at once prevailed upon the ticket agent and Engineer, at Hermann, to come immediately so the cif , with the stews, which was consented to. and a)Qoomotive and bag gage cat were dispatched. on which our intor meets took passage to bear the moustiful tidings to the friends who had with joyous hearts. but just before as it were, bid lathers. brothers, husbands and associates hod speed, and ettgrotting that they themselves were not of the party. The gentlemen deserve much credit for the promptness with which they acted in getting to the city with the heart-rending news. They also state that the lieu Bolt would lay to at Miller's landing until something more was heard from the scene, and bold herself in readiness to take on the wound- ed. ,and bring them to the city. The Polar star was also expected along esery moment, and would of course stop at Efermaun. where it would be in her power to render assistance, which we hope has been the ease. As we 3rt writing. we hear that an express train lies gone up the road, and we defer any further statements or comments until its return, or intelli gone*. 1.. received by some other channel. LATER.

DILATfI of ♦ SUILDMILZSIL—We notice the death of Mrs Elizabeth Harker announced in the Huntingdon papers. She died in the prison at that place, where she bad been oonfined under sentence of death sines the fall of '53. We do not think that the annals of crime in Pennsyl vania furnished such another ease as was hers. At the advanced age of sixty.five years she com mitted a double murder—her husband and sister being the victims--in order to become the wife of her sister's husband. She poisoned her hus band some time in 1852, and although there were lively suspicions of the true cause of his death, he was buried without a post mortem examina tion, and the suspicion gradually faded away. A. year afterwards, however, her sister—with whom the murderess then lived—was sited with violent illness, exhibiting marked symptoms of poison, but she recovered. Soon after she was again seised with the same terrible symptoms sad died in great agony. Still no suspicion rested upon Mrs. Harker. The deed was too foul--the pur pose too horrid, to justify the belief that she was guilty; and but for her subsequent unfeeling con duct, she would doubtless bare gone down to the grave with the secret of her crime between her self and her God. Little by little Leta were developed until the public mind settled down on the conviction that she was the murderer of her sister. The body of the victim was taken front the grave; a post mor tem examination- made, the stomach taken to Philadelphia and examined by a chemist, who found in it enough of arsenic to kill three persons. The body of her husband was also taken up, and although time and the worms had made sad havoe with it, the fatal drug that laid her sister low, was also found in his stomach. She was arrested and tried in Huntingdon in 1853, and the jury, after two hours' deli Lion, rendered a verdict of murder in the fret degree. She was montane ed to death and remanded to prime; but Gov. Bigler humanely determined dist she should not be executed. Her sex and her extreme age plead for her, sad she was allowed to drag out a life of remorse and suspense until called by Providence to her final account. Two weeks ago the stern summons came, and Elisabeth Harker, silvered by the frosts of age, anti charged with guilt such as rarely stained the fame of mortals, primed to that tribunal:where judgement is stcoce,infallible and eternal.—C'Aantberaburyk Vie Lao Lloyd, an African prince, delivered a lecture in Philadelphia oa Monday evening, "Ou the Colored Women of 1866." The prince states that his parents were murdered when be was an infant, and that he was given away to a woman, who brought him to We esentry in 1882, but he shortly afterwards requited to his native country, Where he resided until a abort time slice.
