Secretary Seward has received this morning the following gratifying despatches, together with others of the same tenor, in regard to the election returns in his own State and else- where: an Ew Yo. Ov. 7.—Hon. W. H. Sewar: rs Bh Ly mee Noh jon gain of over ten thou- sand in this city. Favorable results as far as heard from. THURLOW Weep. New York, Nov. 7.—W. H. Seward, Secretary of State: Union gain of 2,000 in the Fourth and / Go waas of this city. Union gain of 1,600 | at least 2, ply with the advice of the Mayor by cleaning | their premises of filth, we need fear little from this epidemic. The Mayor says = ieee ides “Much can be done by the individual citi- gen, who should, for the time being, consider himself a sanitary officer, looking to the con- dition of his own family, premises, and, if meed be, his neighbor, and making it a special duty to assist in maintaining a cleanly and beajthful condition of things, by immediately reporting to his respective sanitary officer, ward commissioner, or this office, all cases where the aid or interference of the authori- ties is necessary.” ‘We hear that many citizens take umbrage at j visits of inspection paid to their premises by | sanitary officers. This is all wrong Every citizen thould feel it an obligation to give up | something of his personal convenience for the time bemg for the good of the community, and | to afford the officers every facility for a ahorough discharge of their duty. THE ELECTIONS. The returns of the elections held in New York, Masracbusetts, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Maryland, Missouri, and Ilin indicate the complete success of the Union ticket. In Massachusetts the Democrats have elected six Representatives, and the Union party four- teen. Gen. Banks is elected to Congress. In New York the Democrats elected but one State Senator. The Union gains in New York city are about 13,0¢0. There is no doubt of the elec- tion of Gen. Barlow. New Jersey gives a Union majority, electing Marcus L. Ward Governor, and securing a majority in the State Legislature, thus insuring the ratifica- tion of the Constitutional amendment. In Maryland and Wisconsin the returns are equaliy gratifying. Baltimore elected all the Union candidates. Prrsonal.—*“B.,” of the New York Post, squibs the etyle of ornamentation experiment- ed within the Old Hall of the Patent Office and bints that it is “pompous” rather than «“Pompeiian.” ----The Baltimore Commerciat's “Washington Letter” of to-day, is clipped pret- ty much bodily from the Star of yesterday.

Boanp or Trape—The Board meets to- morrow night at the City Hall for the transac- tion of business of interest and importance to every citizen of the District. Doubtless the at- tendance will be large. Tue Sewarp Famity.—On the 2d of No- vember Frederick W.Seward was able, for the first time, to affix his name to the official despatches, although he had been transacting the business of his office for some time at his Private residence. When Montgomery Blair eeeks toheap public odium upon the name of the father, he should remember by what sad and tender bonds the Seward family is bound, in the recollection of the nation, to the memory ofthe martyred President. Our great Secre- tary was chosen asa victim also. The scheme which linked bim in that fata] catastrophe, by singling bim out for sacrifice, only crowned Bim with 2 new honor, by proving how much the traitors hated him. The sad domestic afilictions that Mr. Seward has endured, as a consequence of that fatal night, must keep alive an earnest sympathy in every breast. and nite bim still more fondly to the nation he has served £0 well. — Philadelphia Press.

THE EXECUTION OF WIRZ. Gen. Augur, commander of the Department of Washington, has been selected by the War Department to carry out the sentence in the case of Wirz. Gen. Augur yesterday directed Major G. B. Russell, Provost Marshal of this Department, to make the necessary arrangements for the execution, under whose immediate charge it will take place place in the Old Capitol prison ard. Major Russell has succeeded in securing the services of an executioner, and to-day work- men are engaged in erecting an entirely new gallows, the one heretofore used for military executions being dispensed with on this occa- sion. Owing to the limited space of the yard on which the execution will take place, it will in @ measure be a private one, no one being ad- mitted to the yard except those who obtain a pass. There will be but one hundred passes issued, including those to the representatives of the press. To-day Major Russell's office was literally besieged by parties anxious to obtain passes to witness the execution, but they were all dis- appointed, as none will be issued until to- morrow. THE WHITE HOUSE. The delegation from the Sac and Fox tribes of Indians, visiting this city on business con- nected with the Indian Bureau, to-day called atthe White House for the purpose of paying their respects to the Presiaent. The visit was -an informal one, each member being introduced to the President, who, in a few words, addressed through their interpreter, as- sured them of the kind feelings of the Government towards their respective tribes, and of his purpose to do all in his power to promote their welfare. The delega- tion were greatly pleased by their recepticn. General Grant had a short interview with the President this morning. The President's daughter, Mrs. Patterson, with her companions, bas returned from her visit to Vermont, whither she went for the purpose of placing her sons in the academy. ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE. Applications for pardon are still flooding the office of the Attorney General, four hundred from North Carolina and two hundred from Georgia having been received yesterday. The President haying nearly cleared his table of pardon cases, it is understood that he will shortly rescind the order directing the suspen. sion of the issue of requisitions from the Attor- ney General's office. At present, all applica- tions are simply examined at the latter office, and forwarded to the State Department, the President sending for such warrants as he decides to sign. The rebel Generals Longstreet and Albert Pike were at the Attorney General's office this morning. Pike is a tall, portly man, with flowing gray beard, and hair in long ring- lets, and altogether presents astriking appear- ance. FREEDMENS’ BUREAU. Surgeon Robert Reyburn has made his re- port tothe Bureau tor October, of the sanitary condition of the freedmen in Gen. Eaton's dis- trict, which includes the District of Columbia, Alexandria, Fairfax and Loudon counties, Va., and the Government farms in St. Mary’s coun- ty, Md. The total number of freedmen under charge of Gen. Eaton is 33,070, of which num- ber 2,445 were under medical treatment during the month of October. Eighty-two died, 1,595 were discharged as cured, and on the 3ist of October 77= remained under treatment. During the past month there were issued 350 rations per day to these freedmen. PENSION CLAIMS IN THE SOUTHERN STATES. The Secretary of the Interior has decided that all pensions granted prior to the com- mencement of the late rebellion, ceased to ac- crue from and after the date of the President's proclamation declaring the State or district in which the petitioner was domiciled, to be in insurrection, and that the payment of such pensions can only be resumed trom and atter the completion of the proof of the pensioner’s right to be restored to the rolls. FARRAGUT COURT-MARTIAL, This court reassembled at 11 o'clock to-day, when the trial of Com. Craven, U.S, Navy, was resumed, the accused pleading not guilty to the charges and specifications. Several na- val officers who visited the Stonewall after she had surrendered were examined on part of the prosecution as to the build, armament, and lighting capacities of that vessel.

Proclamation of Governor Curtin, of Penn- sylvania. Harnispure, Noy. 7.—The following proc- lamation was issued to-day :— i PROCLAMATION. yin feelings of the most profound gratitude to Almighty God. I invite the good people of the Commonwealth to meet in their places of public worship on Thursday, the seventh day of December next, and raise their hearts and voives in ES and thanksgiving to Him, not only for the manifest ordinary blessisgs which, during the past year, he bas continued to heap upen us, for abundant and gathered harvests, forthriving and industry, fer general health, ferdomestic good order and government, but, also, most expressly and fervently for His unequaled goodness in having so strengthened and guarded our people during the last four years that they have been enabled to crash to the earth the late wicked Rebellion, and to ex- terminate the system of human slavery which caused it. As we wrestled in prayers with Him in the dark time of our trouble, when our brothers and sons were staking life and limb for us on a bloody field or suffering by torture or famine in the hells of Andersonville or the Libby, so now, when our supplications have been £0 gdb saisee f and graciously answered, let us not withhold from Him the homage of our thanksgiving. Let us say toall, “Choose ye thisday whom ye will serve, but for us and our houre, we naga the o Rsinener then, ye people whom He hath so and led, ome ye way-worn and mutilated men, whom He hath spared to return to your dear homes, let us throng the gates of his temples, letus throw ourselves on the knees of our heart:. with a willful joy at the footof His throne and renderaloud our praise and thanks- giving to Him, because He hath made the right to prevail, because He hath given us the vic- tory, because he hath cleansed our land from the stain of buman slavery, and because He bath eraciously shown forth in the eyes of all men the great truth, that no Government is so strong as_a Republic, controiied under his guidance, by an educated, moral and religious Prople.

LOCAL NEWS. Sn ARREST OF AN ExPeRt Conviperce May.— Yesterday afternoon, at 4 o'clock, complaint was made at the police headquarters that a man calling himself Paul Miller had swindled the Bank of Commerce in Georgetown out of $1,000 by means of a forged draft. The case was assigned to the entire detective force and they went to work. Kelly and Bigiey started at once for the Baltimore depot, and as the 4.40 train was about moving Detective Kelly ar- Tested the man standing at the lower.end of the depot, without a ticket, and ready to jump on the cars as they moved ont. He was taken to the police headquarters and searched, and $2,960 in ope package and $24 in another were found on him. Also, a splendid diamond pin valued at $800, a diamond ring $600, and studs, sleeve buttons and other articles valued at $300) to $500, some blank checks on yarious banks and a check for $500 payable to Galt and Bri jewellers, and a bank book with entries of di posits with Stewart & Co., bankers. Several slips, probably from the Police Gazette, giv- ing the history of an expert confidence man, in many respects answering his own description, were found on him, and he surrendered them very reluctantly. He was locked up in the cells and a hearing promised him this morning at 10 o’clock. Not being ready for a hearing at that hour the hearing was postponed till 1 p- m. and again till 2 p.m. The case attracis much attention ofour city bankers, and the trial will probably result in very interesting developments. The draft upon which the money was ob- tained was drawn by W. R. Cole & Oo., on the First National Bank of Baltimore, to the order of Daniel Miller, for $1,000; marked en the face in red ink, “Good for $1,000. J. 8. Norris, cashier; W. Griffin, pay and telier.” Endorsed, « Daniel Miller.” Upon telegraphing to the bank in Baltimore, C. E. Rittenbouse, president of the Bank of Commeice, received the following reply: “NOVEMBER 7, 1565.—[By telegraph from Baltimore.|—To C. E. Ritlenhouse > Something wrong. e have no account with W. R. Cole & Co., and no teller named Griffin. «J. R. Norris, Cashier.” This morning, the President of the Bank of Commerce received the following letler, dated Baltimore, Nov. 7. 1865: “Dear Sir: Your first telegram this morning Was returned to the telegraph office, supposing it had been addressed to the wrong bank. The second was promptly responded to. There must be something wrong, as we have no account of W. R. Cole & Co., and no teller named Griffin. Daniel Miller is President of the National Exchange Bank of this city. 1 suspect fraud somewhere, and would be obliged if you can trace it. Who presented the check to you! Please give me all the tacts you can im the case. Very oe BR “J. S. Norris, Cashier.” Yesterday the prisoner went to M. W. Galt & Co.'s and purchased $700 worth of jewelry and offered $200 in cash and a check on Stewart & Co. for $500 in payment, but it was declined, and that was the check found on his person. This afternoon Mr. S. S. Cox, of Ohio, calied atthe police heanquarters and identified the prisoner as the man who married a lady in Springfield, Ohio, who was applying for a di- vorce in Ohio at the time her husband was mar- ried again in New York. Upon this informa- tion the detectives bring an additional charge— bigamy. ——— TRIAL OF JonN MARTIN FOR TRE MURDER OF HIS WIFE.—CRIMINAL CouRT, Judge Wylie—This morning, the trial of John Martin, indicted for the murder of his wife, Margaret Martin, on the 25th of June last, by beating and stamping upon her when she was in the family way, was commenced in the Criminal Court—District Attorney Carrington proseca- ting, and Messrs. Norris and Morgan appear- ing for the defense. The effort to obtain a jury on Monday bay- ing been unsuccessful. the following jurors were chosen from those drawn and summoned: Wm. King, of W., John B. Williamson, Josiah Escex, Jas. K. Plant, De Vere Burr, John E. Cox John Saul, George Harvey, Charles Wil- son, Wm. Ashdown, Charles C. Ashdown, and Wm. H. Moore. Mm, in opening the District Attorney case, said that it would appear from this evi- dence that the deceased came to her death from lingering torture; that the prisoner treated her sbamefully, almost daily beating her for a week or more previous to her death. If the facts alleged are proved, the prisoner is the murderer of his wife and child, althongh tech- nicslly he is not guilty of the murder of the child, for it was not born, but practically he destroyed his own offepring. Mr. Norris followed for the defence, stating that they were to try the case on the evidence, and he denied that the deceased came to her. death from a long course of cruel torture. The ill treatment was from her, and he intended to show that she was the master spirit: an in- veterate drinker, and hea kindand humane man, Airs. Ann Knot testified that she resided near the accused, Gthand L streets: that the first quarrelling she heard between the aceused and the deceased was on the 19th of June (the Mon- day before deceased died) when she ran in and saw Martin holding his wife by the arm witha tea kettle in his hand in the act of striking her. Witness caught his arm and said he should be ashamed of himself, when he set the kettle down. He said that he would not earn another cent until be had killed her. Witness testified to hearing the last fuss and to going im the house und finaing the deceased on the floor senseless. Witness and a neighbor applied restoratives, and after the deceased came too she said that he had thrown her down and stamped on her.
