JAMES G. BENNETT. The Election and Its Consequenees—A Coun. ter Revolution, According to the returns already received from the interior, there seems to be no reasonable doubt ol the election ef Mr, Bouck, the democratic candi- date, aud the general defeat of the whigs through- out the State. In this city, nearly 5000 fewer votes have been taken than in 1840, and the greater pro- portion are whigs. It may be fairly estimated, that nearly 50,000 fewer votes have been taken through- out the State, than at the last Presidential election in 1810, The election in this State completes the series of movements began at the Extra Session of Con- gress, and settles, beyond a doubt, that a most ex- traordinary countef revolution has been going on, and is now nearly at a close inthe coyntry. Mas- sachusetts, Delaware, Michigan, and one or two other States have yet to vote—but whatever result they may indicate or give, the defeat of the whigs in the great central States of New York, Pennsyl- vania, and Ohio, settles the complexion and tone of public affairs for the next two years. On the accession of John Tyler to the Presidency in April, 1841, the movement or struggle began in Congress between the President and the ultra whig members, and after a most violent campaign of nearly eighteen months, the people of the United States have decided in favor of the policy and views of the President, and against the course of Mr. Tur Orv Cro” Party.—Noah’s “‘old clo” party” at lilitary Hall,met as usual on Monday evening last. There was another regular blow out and some fun- ny doings. One of the “weaker brethren,” a clever but silly fellow, commenced business by offering a resolu- tion for the appointment of a committee of five per- sons, to ascertain by what means their proceedings on Redwood Fisher's letter were published in the “Herald.” Why don’t they appeal to ust Several made speeches on this resolution—some approving, some disapproving. Noah himselt affected not to count of the matter, and saying that it had not been published in any decent paper. An effort was then made to expel both Noah and Redwood Fisher from the committee, but it was not effected. There wasa considerable tempest for some time, but no- thing was thunder-struck. The “‘old clo’ party” is now in a funny condition. Fisher, Noah and a few others, got up the concern, in order to establish an influence at Washington, and to deceive the President and Secretaries by writing long letters full of such impudence as the fa- mous one of Fisher’s, published by the painter. T! is the mod* by which these “old clo’ ” speculators attempt to impose on the Chief Magistrate. Their object is office and spoils—and their weapons are deception, poured through private letters to Wash- ington. This miserable cligue of old broken down poli- ticians, headed by Noah, have established a paper which never can have a circulation beyond 800— have got the printing of the post office to sustain it, procured by deception—have got up a committee at Military Hall, and parade its meetings and resolu- tions—have attempted to levy black mail on every government officer—and when they are found out, they write puling letters to Washington, some of which are published by John Jones, crying like children and whipped boys. The whole movement of the ‘old clo” clique, with Noah at its head, and Fisher at its tail, has been a gross and impudent abortion from the be- ginning. It was meant to deceive—but it has failed of its purpose. If John Tyler’s administration is to be supported properly, it cannot be by such ridi- culous child’s play asthat of Fisher’s or Noah's. If John Tyler is to be a candidate for re-election, it can only be effected by taking the present party organizations as they are, without any new one. John Tyler has reached his present lofty position without ever having a party, or a newspaper organ, to support his special cause, or to represent his spe- cial views. He has been the child of destiny, in the midst of the conflicts ef the two parties. His strength is moral strength—not political, which is rotten—his popularity is moral popularity—not po- litical, which is baseless. That has carried him through the thorny paths in his career in Virginia— and it will carry him through his destiny in the wide Union. Men or cliques professing exclusive devo- tion to him are only imposters and imposition.— These blockheads don’t understand John Tyler’s position. Tue Wuia Newsrarer Press.—What do the Whigs, as a party, now think of the ‘violence, bru- tality, and indecency of the Whig prints against Pre sident Tyler? Js such a policy to be tolerated any Clay and the ultra whigs. Such is the position of affairs, in the midst of which the next session of Congress will meet. The important questions now come up, What will be the policy of the ultra whigs at the ensuing session? What will the President do? Will he reconcile himself to the moderate of both parties? or will he take hold of the movement of the ultra locofocos, and carry out their peculiar measures ? ‘These are very important matters to think upon, and willrequire a careful deliberatio. to settle. The position of Mr. Tyler is peculiar and unexampled. By the lever which that extraordinary position pats in his hand, and the firm exercise of the veto power, Which is the self-existing element of the Presidency, itis very evident he has beer the prin- cipal cause of the successive defeats of the whigs ; and ifhetakesa highand magnanimous course in his future movements and messages, he can just as vasily demolish the refractory and over-bearing lo- sos, who are already beginning to form the same oppositionto his administration on one side— see the Globe—that the ultra whigs did on the other. ‘The position and probable policy of Mr. Tyler de- serve a calm deliberation. OnGan or Prorner Muuer ano nis Men.—The “Sunn” calls the “Herald” “the organ” of Prophet Miller and his men, For what reason we know not, unless it be because we give a pertectly fair and unvarnished report of their sayings ard doings in Newark. For the same reason we are the organ of every movement in religion, philosophy, trade, politics, or literature. We encounter the expense, and ex- pend the energy requiredto make the “Herald” the n—the very mirror of the age. We have been d in process of time, and in the same way, the 2 of John Tyler—the organ of Joe Smith—the organ of every man and every event that has been celebrated of late years. No mind but a very shal- low superficial one would apply such a term to the “Herald.” Mr. Russel Jarvis, formerly of Boston, Washing- ton, and Philadelphia, we learn, well known in newspaper literature, isthe person who exhibits this piece of silliness, but he ought to be excused on the ground that he is e nployed by Moses Y. Beach, the codfish financier and oysterman, who has not an idea beyond “price one penny.” Ru in other respects, has great merit. He is a sort of a Napoleon among the penny-a-liners, being now the writer of all the “leaders” in the New York Sun, the Philadelphia Ledger, and the Boston Times, who pay probably $10 each for the matter thus furnished. Russell, however, ought to give us a share of the money, for furnishing him with the ideas. Fora year past he has been in the habit of taking up certain paragraphs appearing in the Her- ald, that contained some original idea, and of ex- panding them, by mixing a due proportion of words, like pouring a gallon of Croten water into a glass of org org rich Port, and thas writing whole columns of edito- rials—and in this way he furnishes the three papers ndicated with leaders. This is a capital way of editing penny papers, whose intellect is fed by the intellect of others. I, shows also that New York is the only centre of in- telligence and thought on this continent—that the whole press is assuming the hue and system of cen- tralization—and if a man wants to think accurately and comprehensively,on any subject, he must come to New York and reside, drinking Croton water all the time. Moses Y Beach is the chiet of the“‘Sun” establish- ment, and of the cod-fish aristocracy, including oil, oysters and Ulster shinplasters—M. M. Noah is the master-spitit, or prime minister, or chief priest of the codfish cligue—and Russell Jarvis is the work- ingman, who does all the literary work, catching the inspiration from the columns of the Herald. Verily the penny press is a funny concern—a sort of chowder made up of fragments. Wut Hexry Cray pe Ananporgp This ques- tion is propounded with great interest, now that the whigs are defeated, We presume that Mr. ‘Clay will not be aban- doned. He is, certainly, the best candidate they can have—and if they can’t give hima chance of suecess in 1844, they need have no hopes at all. His best prospect arises from the conflict of inte- rests and candidates amofg the democrats. Captain Tyler’s position gives him great influence over the democrats—and if the Captain cannot be a candidate himself, he ean determine who may be 80. Massacnuserts Evection.—This eventfcomes off next Monday. It will be a singular one. If Davis should be defeated and Morton elected, the speech of Daniel Webster will have done it. We look with great interest to the result. longer? Is it not time to,change such tactics for something decent and respectable? Among the most violent and immoral of these prints are the fol. lowing :— Name. Epitor. N.Y. Courier & Enquirer, Watson Webb. “«" “American, Charles King “Tribu Horace Greeley Boston Ati Blockhead’s name unknown Albany Evening Journal, ‘Thurlow Weed. Baltimore Patriot, Quid pro quo Monroe. Richmond Whig Unknown. Louisvile Journal, George Gin Prentice. For nearly a year, these papers have been pouring outa flood of indecency against the character of the President of the United States, in language that 1s a disgrace to the age itself. He has been called “traitor,” “wretch,” “imbecile,” ‘ up- tart,” “scoundrel,” “no gentleman,” &c. &c. without mercy. “His triends and cabinet ministers have also “suffered some.” The effects of such assaults have been to excite the sympathy of the country, and to produce an entire political revolu- tion. Is it not-time to change such a wicked policy? If the Whigs mean to elect Mr. Clay, and they have yet achance, they must reform their practices altogether. Now ror tue Sroms.—The “spoils” are now the subject of talk among the locofocos, and cliques are forming very rapidly to influence the new Gov. ernor and the Assembly delegation. The offices in the gift of the Executive elect, are worth $150,000 per annum, besides pickings and stealings—in all probably $200,000. There are pro. bably 880 or 1000 candidates for these offices, and only 60 or 100 can be appointed. Now will come the tug of war among the locofo- cos—a war that will almost rend them to pieces.— ‘The amount of lying, defamation, puffiing, bribing swearing, and promising that will be done in a pri’ vate way, would sink ten Sodoms and twenty Go. morrohs. One thing is certain—the office of Judge Lynch will be certainly abolished. Tue Axortrionists.—Tho Abolitionists are in ec- stacy. They say that they have killed off Clay—both in Ohio and New York—and that they will do itin Massachusetts. Be not so sure. Abbey Kelly has been electioneering over Western New York, but petticoats have not yet got out of the woods safe. Hony Farr at Newark.—As a fit accompaniment to the accounts of the great camp meeting at New- ark, we give to day a poetic description of a “ Holy Fair,” by Burns, the great Scottish poet, and also a similar one by Thomas Moore, the great Irish melo- dist. Rior in Scuenrctapy.—We learn from Mr. Ro- gers, of the Troy, that there was a serious riot at Schenectady during the election on Tuesday. It originated with the Irish, and was not quelled till midnight. Two men were killed and several some- what injured. It threatened to bea terrible affair at one time, and the militia were ordered out by the authorities. We have nofur r ulars. Erection Returns.—We thank Pomeroy & Co., of the northern and western express line, and Mr. Rogers, of the steamboat Troy, for the latest elec- We compiled our tables from what tion returns. they gave us, and from slips. Tuanxs vor Roast Beer.—The custom of year- ly thanksgiving in the several States is increasing. The western States are now coming into the ar- rangement—the Governor of Michigan having issued New York is to re- turn thanks on the 8th of December, and Rhode Island will offer up prayers on the 24th inst. for its recent escape from Dorr’s famous sword. This cus- tom is a good one. We want more days set apart for prayer and play than we have had. They have his proclamation to this effect. a civilizing influence upon the mass. Axorngr RarLroap in Massacnuserts.—There isto be a railroad between Boston and Fitchburg, to run through Concord. The inhabitants of the in- termediate towns have subscribed liberally towards How much will it benefit them 1— its completion. All those villages within twenty miles of Boston will be injured by coming in competition with those more distant. Their produce will sell for less money in Boston in consequence of a greatly increased sup. ply from the interior. et Musicat INTeLLAGENCK.—The concert advertised to be given to-morrow evening by Max Bohrer, the eelebrated performer on the violincello, is post- poned to Thursday evening, the 17th inst.

In the remain- ing 43 counties, to be heard from, the democrats have only 3222 to gain to secure the State for Bouck. Tue LectsLaTure.—Full returns have not yet been received from all the districts of the several wards. The result, however, so far as ascertained, renders it probable that the whigs have elected two mem- bers of Assembly, the two highest on their ticket. Tigh Davy and Dr. Vandyke, on the democratic Assembly tieket, are defeated. Mike Walsh has polled about 2,300 votes. John McKeon, the democratic candidate for Con- gress in the sixth district, composed of the upper wards, is certainly defeated, and Hamilton Fish is elected. Sammons and Chenery on the whig Assembly ticket, are scratched out of sight of a chance of election. In Montgomery county the democrats have gained one member, and lost one in Fulton. ‘The whigs have gained three members of Assem- bly in Albany county. Terminus oF TRE ATLANTIC SreamERs.—We have received information by the Great Wes- tern, confirming our statement relative to the change of the western terminus of the Caledo- nia, Acadia, Columbia, and Britannia. It is now settled, almost beyond the possibility of a doubt, that these fine steamers, which are only equalled by the Western in splendor and speed, will make their appearance in this harbor on the opening of the ri- ver navigation next spring. We have also received such information from the other side of the Atlantic, as to induce us to believe that the French steamers will also make this their western depet. Three of them will probably be here next April or May. In this arrangement, the managers of these lines have displayed a good deal of sagacity and practi- cal knowledge. With facts,gathered by their agents in this city and in Boston, placed before them, they irresistibly came to the cenclusion,that this was the only legitimate terminus for any line of packets con- necting Europe with America. It is useless for ns to repeat the advantages New York has over Boston. They are well enough known to every one who cares any thing about them, and it is utter folly to attempt to convince such men as the managers of the British or French line of steam ships that Boston contains a popula- tion of 100,000, when it has but 90,000. This city isthe metropolis of the western world. It is the centre of commerce and civilization in this hemi- sphere, and with the Hudson, the Erie canal, the Albany railroad, and other intercommunications, and 315,000 inhabitants, besides two [magnificent fountains, no other city in the world can compare or compete with it. But this does not detract one iota from Boston. That place is no smaller. It is, however, to this city what Dublin is to Liverpool, and it would be as reasonable to send our famous Liverpool packets to the metrerolis of Ireland, as to continue to send the Columbia, &c., to Boston. of course fill the Bostonians with grief. Indeed, the loss of such fine vessels as the Acadia and Bri- tannia will make them feel very savage. But if they bring all their philosophy to bear upon it, they may not explode, as the Phanix Bank did, and en- tirely disappear. There is a vast deal of moral and religious philosophy in that city, and it is now to be proved whether there is any steamship philosophy or not. We believe there is some. There may be alittle fluttering at first, but the people of that great city, with their laws against smoking in the streets, will finally settle down, and not care a fig about the Caledonia, or any other steamer. We truly believe that they will act the philosopher, as the chap did in the time of the great flood, when Noah refused to take him into the Ark. He asked Noah to take pity on him, “TI can’t do it,” replied the old pa- triarch. It rained alittle more, and the water was up to his Knees, when he again asked for admit- ance, with some impatience. ‘We have no room for you,” said Noah, “you must take care of your- self.” “Well,” said the philosopher, “1 don’t care a d——n; you may go‘to the devil with your old ark—it will be but a small shower after all.” The Bostonians can say the same to owners of the mail line—**We don’t care a straw for your steamers— we never thought much of them!” Cuatnam Treatre.—It is needless to add to the announcement for repetition of the Devil’s Daugh- ter, as it has already created such a sensation in the public mind, that it will be sure to draw a crowded house on every night of its representation, In ad- dition, to-night will be performed the drama of The Spy, taken frem J. Fennimore Cooper’s celebrated Ameriean novel of that name—J. R. Scott enacting the character of Harvey Birch. Twe Argna.—The Bowery Amphitheatre has become the grand centre of attraction, and is de- serving the profuse patronage lavished nightly upon it. The exquisite equestrianism of Howes, Aymar, and Lipman—the beautiful display of tumbling, pos- turing, and other Olympic exercises of this truly classic troupe, all tend to establish the supremacy of this species of entertainment. This alteration in the route of the steamers will | ‘The Great Miller Camp Meeting at Newark —Miller’s Sermons on the Histories of the Great Kingdoms of the Earth, Newark, Wednesday Nov. 9th. The great tent was raised this morning, but as the seats were rather wet, Mr. Miller preached again in the church in town, He took up, this morning, the first portion of the 1th chapter of Daniel; and as he has already converted three ministers in this place, and secured a footing in one of the churches, I think it highly advisable that the learned theologians of New York should be made fully acquainted with his movements and his statements, in orderthat they may prepare themselves as the ministers of this place and Dr. Brownlee are doing, to controvert him. ‘Therefore I spread before them the following verses which formed Mr. Miller’s text to-day, and I sin- j cerely hope that next Sunday they will all preach upon it- Bearin mind, that I am no believer in or convert to his doctrines, but he has produced a tre- mendous impression among the people of this city and the country round about. Therefore it be- hooves ministers of all denominations to be up and doing, that they may be able to answer the query, “Watchman, what of the night?” Here is his text:— “Also Lin the first year of Darius the Mede, even I stood to confirm and to strengthen him. And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia ; and the fourth shall be far As than they all; and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all againstthe realm of Grecia. Andamighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. And when he shall stand up his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven ; and not to his posterity, nor ac- cording to his dominion which he ruled : for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those. And the king of the south shall be Caen 3 and one of his princes; and he shall bestrong above him, and have do- minion ; hisdominion shall be a great dominion. And in the end’ of years they shall join themselves together ; for the king’s daughter of the south shall cometo the king of the north to make an agreement : but she shall not retain the power of the arm ; neither shall he stand nor his arm ; but she shall be given ap and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened fer in these times. But outof a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortressof the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail: And shall also carry captive into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north. So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land. But his sons shall be red up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces one shall certamly come, and overflow, and pass through ; then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress. And the king ofthe south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and eee with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand: And when he hath taken oy, the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up ; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it. For the king ofthe north shall retui nd shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches. And in those times there shall many stand up against the ki south ; also the robbers of thy peoy shall selves to establish the vision ; butthey shall fall. So the king of thenorth shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen prople, nei- ther shall there be any strength to withstand. Bat he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the. pideiaes land, which by his hand shall be consumed. He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him ; thus shall he do: and he shall gi bin the ghter of women, corrupting her : but she shall not and on his side, ‘neither be forhim After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many : but a rince for his own behalt shall cause the re; offered & him tocease ; without his own reproach he shall cause itto turn upon him. Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land : but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found. Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kinguom : but within few da he shall be Seatoyed, neither in anger, nor in battle. And in his es ate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom: but he shall coméig eaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatte- ries. And with the arms of a flood shall they be over- flown from before him, and shall be broken ; yea, also the ince of the covenant. And afterthe league made with ‘im he shall work deceitfully : for he shallcome up, and shall become strong with a small people.” He said that Daniel in speaking of Cesar, or the Pope, or Napoleon, did not mention them by name, but described their acts so that no one could mis- take who he meant. When he alluded to the pow- er of the Pope, he meant all the not merely one. When he says“ he or him,® Be take relerence to the kingdom a particular prince ruled over.— ‘When he oye “he or him’ in some_ places, many think that he refers to princes living 2000 years back; there’s where brother Stewart is mistaken ; he throws all the acts referable to the power of Rome on Antiochus Epiphanes. But bro- ther Stewart knows no more where he is in pro- edit, history than a child unborn knows about Newark: Now the 1th chapter of Daniel isa com- plete history of the world in detail down from Da- niel’s time. To the 23d ,verse it includes the 70 weeks to the death of the Messiah in the reign of Tiberius Cesar. From the 28d verse to the 30th verse inclusive, is the history of pagan Rome ; from the Sist to the 39th verses inclusive, is the history and character of papal Rome. From the 40th Verse to verse inclusive, is the history of the days of Napoleon Bonaparte as cary as you could paint his,history after reading his life. And in the 12th chapter from the lst to the 3d verse, is a prophecy of the events that took place in the time of the troables of the French Revolution. Then by the signs thus given we know the distance of time of all these parts of histery, and where we stand now, on the edge of the end of the world.

City Intelligence, Tuat saMe OLp Crow in THE Tomss.—A very re- spectable looking gentleman named Blodget, who hails from Ohio, applied at the lower police office yesterday for redress against John Crow, the King of the Peter Funk auction business, of Water street, near Pearl, who had took him in to the tuneof about $40.

Incenpranixs.—The mayor of this city has offered are. ward of $250 for the apprehension and conviction of the incendiaries who are eb, to have been the cause of the recent fires in the twelfth ward. A Suansy Tricx.—Daniel Ryan, one of the shabby genteel of Gotham, met Miss Julia Riley on the dist ult. and after informing her that he had been sent by his em- ployer in Westchester county to come to this chy to en- gage “ahelp,” persuaded her so hard that she consented to go and gave him her trunk containing clothing valued at fe to con’ 4 to the railroad cars, where they were to passage.

The oration was delivered by Charles Eames, Esq. upon the Cominercial System, or the Empire of Commerce. We intended to have re ported it, but although it contained some common place ideas, yet they were so largely diluted with water, that any temperance man might swallow the whole without breaking his pledge. He followed the same old path trod by all the illustrious sopho- mores, who have preceded him. We venture to say that no stealer of other men’s ideas will ever commit even petty larceny with any portion of the oration. The poem was by Park Benjamin, Esq. and was really a very creditable affair, It went off with eo eclat and deservedly so. It contained many ard hits, and some very happy ones, and one tré- mendous touch of egotism, 3 The dinner came off at Niblo’s garden. Phillip Hone presided . Dr. Wainwright said grace. Pre- sent His Honor the Mayor, Lawyer O’Connor,Presi- dent Moore,and others. About two hundred in all,of whom 25 were young ladies. It was a pure Croton temperance dinner. There were some singers pre- sent, Mr. Horne, the Loders,the Watsons, the Mas- setts, and others, who sung various pieces. here were thirteen toasts drank, and the most of them watered with large quantities of speech.

Tam rejoiced as a magistrate because I see the boy around me have ardent spirits—I_ mean animal i nits. (Cheers.) The Rev. Mr. Bellows hascalled the attention to matrimony. Now this Institution is just twenty-two ict old—one year beyond its majority. The clergyman says, marry. And this is the first year the young men have invited ladies totheir dinner. So here we have three ideas—22 and the ladies, clergymen, and matrimony. [Great cheering—the young ladies all hung their heads.] The Mayor concluded with the following toast :— The Mercantile Library Association—The present asso- eaagn Ci the ladies) I allude to. [Enthusiastic ap- plause. No.7.—The Merchants of New York—our Institution is the Merchant's University. With this for a lash, Gol.

The Vermil- lion had a large quantity of freight on board, mostly flour; a considerable number of passengers Nothing was saved, so instantaneous was the conflagration. It proceeded from one of the hands accidentally dropping a demijohn or can of spirits turpentine, which bursted over the boilers, and caught fire im- mediately, enyeloping the whole vessel in flames in aninstant. The Perry, which arrived soon after, took the Vermillion’s passenger’s on board.—Cleve- land Plain Dealer, Nov. 8. {> There was atolerably good house last night, at the New York Museum. There is one advantage in this es- tablishment; the public can always confidently rely upon the performance taking place, be the weather ever so bad. ‘The manager declares that fon no account will he defer it, for by so doing, were ke only to disappoint one person, he should look upon it as a breach of faith with the public, which he considers he is inviolably bound to preserve. Diamond, Jenkins, Rosalie, Boyce, Wright, &c., appear. ‘The Fudge Mermaid will make her debut on Monday next, direct from Humbug Island. GG One continued throng of ladies and gentlemen was crowding into the American Museum yesterday and last evening, to witness the wonderful attraction put forth there this week, among which are, the Mermaid caught near the Fejee Islands, and doubtless the greatest wonder of the world.
