THE LATE ELECTION.
During the last week important elec.
tions have taken place in the Sales of Con•
necticut, Rhode Island and Michigan. and
in several of the larger cities and towns
throughout the Union, the reults of which
are cheering and encourageeng io a high
degree to the opponents of the ruinous pal.
icy and dishonest practices of the latter
day Democracy. Let us look at these
signs of the times :
In Connecticut the Republicans elected
their Governor, Lieut• Governor and other
State officers, a majority of the Legislature
and alithe Corgressmen• In the last Con.
grass "the little yaller, State," as De 'roc
queville calls it, was represented by two
Republicans and two Administration dough
faces; in the next her entire delegation
will be Republican. Well done for the
land of steady habits
The contest in Michigan turned upon
the election of a Cheif Justice of the Su
preme Court, and in this case also the
Republicans have been triumphantly sue
successful. Their candidate, Hon. Geo.
Martin, received upwards ten thousand
majority over his Democratic opponeht,
a vote indicating a large Republican gain
throughout the state. The gain over the
lasts fall's poll in the city of Detroit is
nearly eight hundred. Detroit is the
home of General Cass, Mr Buchanan's
Secretary of State,
The Republicans of Rhode I eland have
elected to Republican State ticket, all the
candidates being elected excepting the
Lieutenant Governor end General Treasu
er. for which there has been no choice.
The Legislature elected has a large Re.
publican majority. W. D. Brayton, the

u ,. 1 any y t utajority in Milwaukie, for
nay she Supreme Court. The
from the State show about the
pe comparative party vote as polled at
the Mat fall election, The result is con
sidered doubtful.
The Election held in Illinois, on Mon
day,tor Judges and Clerks of Supreme
Court; resulted in the success of the en
tire Rupublican ticket in Chicago, by
an average majority of 2000 votes- The
whale vote cast was 7000 less than re
ceived at the March election.
Returns iron the interior of Michigan in
dicate the election of Martin, the Repub
lican candidate (or Supreme Judge by
10,000 majarity.
Now for the cities. In Cincinnati, an
Monday, the whole Opposition ticket Was
elected by a majority of one thonsand.—
The City Council stands, ten Opposition
and six Democrats. In Cleveland, Ohio,
and Portland, Maine, on the same day,
the entire Republican tickets elected by
fair majorities. In Louis +Tulle, Kentucky,
on the same day the Americans elected
their candidate for Mayor and eighteen
out of twettty•four members of Councils.
But it is from Si, Louis, a ala 'e city in
a alava State, that we receive the most
glorious news. The returns of Mondey's
election gives Filley, Republican, for May
or, upwards of 2500 over Bogy, Demo
crat, and 4500 over Wyman, American.—
Filleys plurality may be increased to 3000
The entire Republican Council ticket was
also elected by a large majority, This
result is deeply significant, and indicates
as surely as:there is a God in Heaven that
in 1860 Missouri will range herself upon
the side of Freedom and the consolidated
Opposition to to the Slave Democracy.
Elections have taken place in other
large cities and towns favorably to the
cause of the People, but the foregoieg re
turns wilt suffice the reader that the Dem
ocratic party and its abominable heresies
are being rapidly and effectimly crushed
out by an irresistable force of an enlight
ened public opinion. The world moves !
Th• heads of the people are once more all
right 1 Let us all rejoice !

or There has been considerable ex
citement about Harrisburg, occasioned by
one of those applicants for atvorce which
have no merits to back it, and whose only
chance for success lies in the money of the
applicant. A Mrs. Fry, from Philedel.
phis, applied for a divorce from her hus
band on the ground of ill-treatment,—a
• pretence which his evidence completely
disproves, and which if it existed, is cog
; nizable by the Courts. On his part he
shows that within a few months after his
marriage she formed a fancy liason with a
West Point Cadet, and produces letters
from her to aim of the most unquestionable
I character. Her father is said to be worth
several millions, and as money is supposed
to have sone influence at Harrisburg, we
shall have a fair chance to see what it can
I do. The applicant is so barefaced, its.
Ipudent and devoid *f a shadow of merit,
that we can see no reason why a member
should vote for it, unless he has a heavy
bribe in his pocket, and we look with some
interest for the ayes and nays on this ques
tion.

Refusal of Croy. Morgan to Commute
the Sentence of Jim Hartung.
ALBANY, April 7.
Gov. Morgan has refused to commute
the sentence of Mrs. Hartung. He refers
to the general aversion to the hanging of
women, but believing that the prisoner is
guilty of deliberate murder, he thinks the
public justice, as well or the safety of hu•
man life, demands her execution.
g There never was hypocrite so dis
guised, but he had some mark or other to
be known by.
THE office of Auditor General, which is
to be filled at the ensuing fall election, is
one of consierable importancA to the people;
and care should be taken to make a prop
er selection. Among the many good men
named in connection with a nomination by
the Fourth of June Convention, none seems
to be so befitting as that of THOMAS E.
COCHRAN, Esq.,of York.
Mr. Cochran did able and distinguished
service to the old Whig party in the State
Senate when York and Lancaster formed
a Senatorial District; and for many years,
as well before as after that period, he bat
tled faithfully in the good cause as editor
of the Pennsylvania Republican. In 1856
he was the Union candidate for Canal
Commissioner, and was defeated by means
of frauds in Philadelphia and elsewhere.
He has numerous friends throughout the
State who will urge his nomination, and
would be gratified with his election. He
is a man eminently fitted for the duties of
the office of Auditor General, and it is ho.
pad that the delegates from this district
will take his merits into consideration.
ar It is the prevailing opinion in the

world mainly to have a place to put Boston
in, and that the chief business of the sun,

OUR NEIGHBORS.
Cheater County.—On Sunday afternoon last
the body of a man named Daniel Regester, of
Willistown, Chester County, was found lyicg in
Chester Creek, a short distance abovelMilltown
It is supposed that the unfortunate man was
taken with a fit, and foil into the stream, and
in struggling to get out, expired. An inquest
was hcld.by Wm. Sharpless; Esq., and a ver•
diet rendered in accordance with the above
facts. The deceased was aged aged about 70
years ; and was the fatherdo•law of John Bail
of Willistown township. His hat was found on
the bank with a stone on the brine to keep it
from being carried away by the wind which
was blowing quite strongly at the time, It is
possible that he had stopped to drfuk; and fell
into the stream, and being old and feeble.
was unable to extricate himself. An Irishman
ulto passed along saw him net the water, but
said nothing about it ; so the body was not
found for two or three hours afterwards.
The Bank of Chester Valley discounted up
wards of fifty thousand dollars, at the meeting
of the Board of Directors on Monday last. The
Octorata Bank discounted nineteen thousand
on the same day. The Bank of Chester Coun.
ty discounted $90,000 on Tuesday last, and
$75,000 on Thursday, and the Board of Direr.
tors were in session yesterday, and the Ist in.
stoat, for the purpose of discounting. We
should judge that the demands of the county
must have been well supplied.
Blair Counly.—A little girl, daughter of
Mr. Thomas Dasher, of Middle Marini' Forges
in this county was burned badly on Wednes•
day last, that death rel ieved her , of her agony
on the succeeding day. The soother having
left the little girl at home, and whilst standing
at the stove warming, her cloths took fire, and
before any assistance could be rendered her
she was so badly burned that her death ensued.
She is about five y ears old. This is another
1 088011 to parents to be snore careful its leaving
their little.ones at home without a grown per.
son to take charge of them. •
tt tllt noose, and having come in contrite!
with a very hot stove, her clothing speedily
ignited, and it a moment she was completely
enveloped in flames. Her peirring shreiks of
pain brought the members of the family and
others to her assistance, who succeeded in ex
tinguishing the fire, but too late to save the
cheld's life. She lingered in the most oxcru
agony for an hour or two, when death came
to her as a welcome visitor, and releived her
pains. •
Somerset County.—The stable on the prop.
erty of of Dr. Edward Connelly st Meyer's
Mills, was totally destroyed by fire on Monday
last. The building was ignited by some chil
dren who were playing with matchos—wo per
same trying to see wether they would burn hay.
The loss is quite heavy, but we bear is covered
iu great part by insurance.
POL ITIOAL.
WILLING TO TAKE Ma. BUCHANAN INTO THE
Fuse. The Greensburgh Argus closes its at
tack on the late Democratic S tate Convention
as fullows:—"We had Loped that common
sense would have dictated a wiser course than
the convention has pursued. We are anxious
to prevent a second defeat, for that will be fol.
lowed by a third. We were willing to receive
back into the Democratic fold, the cringing
spaniels who betrayed us in the State Conven
tion last winter—but not to "doubtful disputa
tions." Yea, we were willing to receive Mr Bu
chanan back again to the Democratic fireside
if he came as a repentant old sinner. But we
will never dishonor the glorious old Demo
erotic flag we have so long caught under—nor
yield one inch of the lights of the people to
goitern themselves. No, not secure victory.
We are pleased learn that a call for a State
convention has been made to meet at Harris.
burg on the 13th of April to adopt a platform,
on which all honorable and true Democrats
can stand. We heartily concur in the move
ment, but wo fear the day Lamed is too early
to secure a full representation. The Demo°.
racy of the State must take early and energet..
is measures to counteract the federal itifluence
that has beclouded the Democratic horizon."
LUCKY Lenient AND NORTHAMI.TON.—ThO
Allentown Democrat feels thankful that the
delegates from Lehigh (which of course is
'doing better,') and Northampton, to the late
Democratic State Convention, had no hand its
ruining the party. The Democrat joyfully
says:
"Mr. Nolf, who represented this county, and
Peter Kemerer and George W. Shawde. of our
neighboring county of Northamton, we are
proud to see, washed their hands of this foul
insult. If the Democratic party is prostrated,
and her candidates ignominously defeated in
the opproaching campaign, they at last can
point tt, their votes as a proud evidence that
they had no part in it. They cau well exclaim
in looking at the hidious spectacle,
Shake not your gory locks at me—
Thou can'at not say I did it.""

N. B.—A WORD OF k.xeLANATto,
to those who lave known:us under the style of
Evans & Co. The Business located by us at No.
677 Broadway, New York City, is tlio oldest es
tablishment in the country, and is known world
wide as the original 'Evans & Co.'s Gift Book
store.' Many have taken the advantage of our
popularity to advertise under the same name as
originators, to increase their trade—and though
a house having neither character or name of its
own, can hardly claim the confidence of the
commur ity-to protect the few who may be un
acquainsed o ith us, we would state that we hope
no connection with any other Gift Book House
and though many advertise under the name of
Evans & Co., the firm constituted by 1). W.
