EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON OITy: EF Persons wanting the Evening Star in Baltimore, can procure it early every after- noon at Henry Taylor’s Newspaper Depot, “Sun Iron Buildings.” THE WEEELY TAR. This journal improves with the issue of each number. To-day’s issue is hard to excel. It is not only a complete history of Washington ” for the past week, detailing ali our local and governmental affairs worth knowing, but it is also a.complete index of the deings in alt parts of our widely extended conntry as well as the affairs of the old world. In addition to ite character as a nonpareil newspaper, the Weekly Star always contains choice selections of tales, poetry and anecdotes, making the paper interesting and entertaining to all classes of readers. The price of this paper is only $1.25 a year, tnveriably in advance. SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRES? The Union inquires into the cause of the defeat of the Democracy in the late elections. The editor says it is owing to abolitioniem, whigism, and know nothingism, aided by disaffected Democrats. Right, there, old True Penny! He demonstrates that no man can properly claim to be a Democrat who is a Know Nothing. He also holds up fidelity to the Democratic organization as a prime dary ‘There was one element of Democratic weak wess in the late elections which the editor fails to perceive—that fs, bad nominations of Demo cratic grog-shop-caucus packed conventions, who put up the tools of grog-shop loafers, and others more or less like them, for Congrese in somecases, and thus force some Teputable people te “ fly off the handle” on election day. This was the casein the district now represented by Mr. Witte, of Pennsylvania, the man, Phillip:, named as his successor, being a very improper person to be sent to Congress, we hear. We might name half a dozen such cases. The truth is, the convention system in the Demo- cratic party, as practiced, is very often made to serve only the purposes of the worst por tion of the community. While the editor of the Union is preaching in favor of the party organization, he would be doing good by boldly Sensuring its use by sinister men for sinister Purposes at times, to which much of the cur- rent disaffection to that organization among thorough Democrats in Principle is justly chargeable. The organ further congratulates the Democracy on the fact, that in the late election in Pennsylvania, Reah Frazer and David Wilmot went clean over to the other party, which, in itself, is really full compen- @ation for all the Democracy lost in their rout there. The Intelligencer devotes six columns to & teview of the doctrine of General Jackson, that he was to interpret the Constitution as he understood it, not-as the Supreme Court might declare it to be—on which Mr. Senator Sum- ner planted himself in justifying his senato- rial tergiversations. ee VeRrvort |; BGISLATURE.—Both branches of the Legislature of Vermont assembled at Mont- pelieron Thureday, and organized without delay. The Senate elected H. Barrett, of Mid- dlebury, Clerk, and Mr. Chapman of Ludlow, Assistant Clerk. Both are “fusionists.”’ In the House, G. W. Grandy, of Vergennes, was chosen speaker on the first ballot by the fol lowing vote : Grandy, (whig,) 141; Bartlett, (democrat,) 50; McLean, (freesoiler,) 23; scat- tering, 4. James Slade, of Middlebury, was unanimously elected Clerk of the House C H. Hayden, of Rutland, has been 8ppointed to the office of Beoretary of Civil and Military Affairs, by the.new Governor, Hon, Stephen Royce. The Governor’s message was delivered yes- terday. Ispiana Evectiox —Mace, elected to Con- grees from the eighth district, is no: a regular Democrat, but run as an independent, anti- Nebraska, Kuow-Nothing candidate, against Dr. James Davis, Democrat. Col. Lane was not @ candidate in the fourth district Judge Holman was the Democratic nominee, and was defeated by Crumback, anii-Nebraska. In the eleventh, not the tenth district as reported by telegraph, Petit, anti-Nebraska, defeated Slack, Democrat. Mr. Harlan, the present member, was not a candidate. Schuyler Col- fxx and John Sherman, Whigs, elected. Ce ee eee Sourm Canouina.—The eleotion in this State took place on the 10:h inst.

The Recent Elections —There is now lit:le doubt in our mind that there is to be an-anti- administration majority in the next Honse of Representatives of the United States, though no majority bent on carrying gut any policy or measure differing from those knowsi-as the measures and policy of the Detnocratié party Abolitionism cannot possibly have a majority ; hor can Native Americanism. Yet the temper of the majority in against the National Ad- ministration will be exceedingly bitter. As for a majority in favor of any one pritoiple or measure known as Whig, the idea enters the head of wo one well informed in politics. The opposition will have but a single bond of For the redemption of atock...... $8473 52 union—hostility to the National Admiuistra- For paying other Treasury debte..- eto a7 tion.

There will, however, be no Southern opposition to the Administration, Every man in the House from the south will stand‘tip to every measure which the Admin- istration is known to favor. ‘this unity of a great section of the Union, hitherto unknown in either branch of Congress, will give them moral strength, which, we think, will couater- balance the plans of the majority, inasmuch as it must check action on their part to oarry out the doctrines laid down by the New York Tribune, as those of the new party of lis orea- tion—the so-called “ Republican party.” We sve no reason to believe that on any one point the Adntinistration can be defeated ; though, as before remarked, its declared eno- mies may be in # majority in the House: The great danger is the creation of a Southern party, which shall ultimately advocate a dis- solution of the Union, per se. It is the logiti- mate results of the result of the vehement hostility to the South avowed by most of those who triumph in the recent elections at the North. Caba.—It is understood in this city that the return of Concha to Cuba is a practical estop- pel to fillibustering in that direction, for which the country may be thankful. Hisundoubted popularity among the native inhabitants of the island, founded on the honest efforts to ameliorate their condition, which character ised his former administration of the govern- ment therd, It is thought among the public men here, will speedily bring about the man ifeatation of a spirit of acquiescence in the ex- isting ‘condition of their Sffairs, such as has not been displayed since his return to Spain. While that disposition on the part of property holders in Cubs exists, fillibustering from the United States must be a sheer waste of money, energies, lives, anfl brains—its success being utterly hopeless. We need hardly assure the readers of the Star that we heartily rejoice at this prospect. Yet it is not thought here that Concha’s return to the island will operate to postpone a change of government there—the acquisition uf Cuba by the United States, by purchase. Letters are now being published in leading London papers, from Madrid, strongly advocating the sale of the island to the United States, which is quite a new fea- ture in the controversy over its retention by Spain—quite. These writers, some of whom are evidently deeply interested in enabling Spain to maintain her financial credit, take the ground that it is extremely problematical whether she can much longer retain Cuba by force of arms; and that it is certain that the cost of such retention must swallow up all revenue which the island can possibly pay into the royal treasury. And, also, that the United States offers a liberal price for it—a price, which properly expended by the Span- ish government in developing the resources of old Spain, will be worth a thousand fold more to her future than the retention of the island, under existing circumstances, possibly can be. There is no doubt in our mind, from the tenor of these letters and the position of the journals in which they appear, that the Spanish bond. holders, (English,) who dictate to the Englich Queen’s governments their Spanish policy, are beginning to appreciate the fact that Spain can no longer hold Cuva with profit to herself, and that if she much longer indulge in the idea of maintaining her authority in the island to gratify her Pride; that will have a fal! up- jai slnehoee: ipenitontady tenets: me der cireumstances in which ske wiil lose the are in the aspiring eyes of several.

BALTIMORE CORBESPON DANCE, Bautinors, Oot. 13, 1854, The recent politcal contest fur Municipal officers, in one sense of the word, has ended, and victory perches upon the Know Nothing standard. The finale, however, is not yet—a fierce and desperate struggle is in reserve. All the petty offices. within the Mayor’s gilt must become bones of contention, and applicants by scores and hundreds, lank and hungry, are already pres ating their claims.

But the above-named Persons were men of property, and civil ac- tions have been commenced agaiost them by Hon. L. B. Peck, United States district attor- ney, under the direction of the Commissioner of Pensions; and at the last term of the United States court in Vermont, judgment was enter- ed againeéthem for the amount of those two pensions, being $1,101.62.

His father advanced considerable sums of money tothe Colonics during the revolutionary war. Mr. Ullmann was educated at Yale College.” ‘The Albany Evening Journal says : “The Kuow Nothing candidate for Gover- nor (Ullmann) haa-written a letter to a “ Dear Brother’? in this city, saying that he was born jat Wilmington, Delaware. This ought to be convlusive, and yet it conflicts with Mr. Ull mann’s authority on former occasions. When a student at Yale College he wrote in albums, ‘Daniel Ullmann, Caloutta, India;’ and when .& boy at school at Léwville, Lewis county, he pasted as of foreign birth. “So that, like the order which he représents, the question of his birth is mystified.” The Knickerbocker remarks : “Mr, Ullman is not a German Jew but an Asiastic Jow.
