It is quite probable that the official vote oan alone deter- mine, with certainty, who is Governor.—Cincinnati Gazeite, Oct. 16, ‘The Cleveland Democrat, of the 17th instant, says “ There is no longer any doubt about the result of the State clection. Ford is elected, by a majority not far from 500. “The exact state of things in the Legislature is not et known. It is known, however, that the strength 80 divided between the three parties, that none can act without the assistance of one of the others.

(From the Philadelphia Bulletin, Oct. 19.) Appearances indicate that both parties here have ‘been mistaken in refurence to the votes of the free soilers, in the late gubernatorial contest The general impression, Ce ayy! in the assertion of the Repu)- dic, has 1 it the free soil party voted for John- ston. This may have been true,to some extent, at least, in Philadelphia city and county, and perhaps also in Montgomery, but it does not seem to 80 in Tioga In 1847, for instance, the majority for Shunk, in Ti :was 778, whereas Longstreth's majority, this Be Bt of being leas, as it would have been if tl soil democrats voted for him, is actually more, viz , 858. Moreover, of a comparison of the whole vote polledin ‘Tioga Bradford and Su:quehanna counties, with that of 1844. when, as now, there appears to have been a general turn-out, there is little gain perceptible for either side. except what may be attributed te the na- Dem. gain in 22 counties, ture! growth of population, ‘This will be evident from | the following table :— 19d 1348.

On the whole we infer ‘that the free-soil men in these three counties naw voted for the candidates of the parties to which they formerly belonged, though probably a few democratic free-roiiers, not over 200, did not vete all for Governor. Afawy de mooratic free-soilers voted for Johnston, these could not have been more than 100 It is said by the friends of the Buffalo platform, that these three counties, as well as Potter and Luzerne, are strongly in favor of Van Buren. The election, mext month. will test this. At present, we have mot sufficient data to tell how these counties will vote, | ‘The nearest approach we can make to a guess is through the vote of Tioga, on the Congressional ticket. though this is by no mesas a certain indication, Here, thowever, is the vote :— “Wilmot, (free-soil democrat) . 1714 | ‘Tracy, (whig). RoR 1,023 Brewster, (Cass democi 64 The democrats assert t! y “Wilmot, who will support Cass, and, vice versa, that a Jarge number of Tracy's friends will sustain Van Bu- zen. There may be some truth in these declarations, for if this congressional vote represented the strength ofthe three candidates, Van Buren, Taylor and Cass, Gt will be seen that Taylor's majority in Tioga over ‘Cass would be 383. Now, as the demooratic majority in Tioga in the late election was 858, this would be a gain for the whigs of 1,241 votes in November, in this one county alone. But, we think, as we said before, that the congressional vote is no certain test of the one in November. As the Pennsylvanian says, “we are in a fog.” MANESTO OF THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE. | To rue Peorie of PENNSYLVANIA! — Before again Addressing you on the political issues moy pen mE before the country, the Democratic State Central Committee have preferred to wait until | the result of the October election could be ascer. tained definitively. Tho extraordinary closeness of | ahe vote for State officers has delayed the fulfilment | of this purpose until the present period. The un- wertainty in which the issue was for some days iu- | ‘volved is now to a great extent removed, and we are | nt a more definite view of the results, uses that have produced them. ! Notwithstanding the premature exultation of our | opponents, the efficial returns establish that the de- umocratic candidate for Canal Commissioner, Israel Paynter. is elected by between 2000 and 3.000 ma jority. This isa tribute, due not less to a consistent ‘and well-tried democrat, than to the sterling county of Westmoreland, which has s9 often gladdened our hearts with its splendid majorities. We regard this event ax affording just cause for general felicitation, as it er, our lines of internal improvement from the hands of a perty that has never wielded them, except to the public detriment Already had they battened in prospective om this department of | State patronage, threatening to visit every demo- | cratic incumbent, however capable and honest, with | pereinptory dismissal from the public rervice. This proscriptive spirit is now happily frustrated, and our canals and railroads are preserved from serving as in- struments to wreak the revenge of proud and em- | Dittered partizanship, As compared with October, 1844, we have gained « member of Congress in the Vith district (Bucks and | Lehigh.) by 820 majority. We have gained another | in the AVith district, (Cumberland, Franklia,and | Perry,) by about 160 ‘majority. We have gained another in the XXIVth district, (Butler , Armstrong, Indians and Clearfield.) by from 200 ‘to 340 ma- jority We bi lost bat « single district, via: the | (11d, Philadelphia county, by reason of the amalga- mation between the whigs. natives and abolitionists ‘The X Xth district, (Washington and Beaver.) has decided Inst us by barely 58 votes, ind the XVIith district, (Huntingdon, Blnir.ke ) by only about 60 votes ‘We bave no douhtthat the oficial results willestablish: that on the Congressional vote the democrats havea * cided majority. | State Senate remains for the time being in the . ) of our opponents, ehiefly by reason of those | Db, pg over. Under the mort unfavorable view, the be of Representatives stands a tie. This has been effected by the loss of eight members in Philadelphia county, by reason of the amalgamation—two In Lu- yetne, one in Cam)ria, one im Cumberland, and one in | ‘Washington. through local division: nd the further | Jors of two in Schuylkill, from causes of which we phall syeak hereafter, | If our anticipations have not been realized im the | ‘vote for Governor, it has resulted from no want of | wonfidence in our worthy candidate, Morris Long- streth, and lese from the real numerical preponderance of our cppom nts On the contrary, the result is dis- | tinotly traceable to causes wholly different. T! ia- | tory of all parties has established that it is not a para. @ox that their own strorgth is sometimes an element of weakoers, cc nducing to undue dangerous secu- rity, Never bas this truth been more strikingly exemplified than in recent election. The demo- oratic party entered into the contest, so entirely free | ed Lieutenant Governor, and George How figures, compared with previous elections, demonstrate Incontestibly; that the democratic party, if beaten at all, owes its not to the superior strength of the foe, but to their own criminal maplneae, ‘Whilst ours was condition of most unmasterly in- activity, the minority, stimulated by a common senti- ment of hostility to the democratic party, have formed oe species of artful combination, compounding the most heterogeneous materials into one united and har- monious whole. By the superadded efficacy of a gene- ral and thorough organization, extending into every house and hamlet, e more effective because secret and unsuspected, they [have achieved ‘results which they have never accomplished before, and which, we yo them, no art or artifice shall enable them soon accomplish again. We attribute the Governor's vote mainly to the per- nicious self-recurity of the democratic party. But other causes powerfully co-operated. In some of our stron; democratic counties, the party was more than usually distracted in reference to the choice of local incum- dents. Under the State constitution, the people trien- nially elect their prothonotaries, registers, record: clerks of courts, and in many counties their sheri! ‘There are always on both sides, more or leas, the sub- ject of excited competition; but as the democratic par- 4 is in the majority in fully two-thirds of the sounties, @ disposition of this local patronage alwi necessa- rily affects them much more injuriously than their op- ponents, ‘When discontent pervades’ county in re- ference to the local nomination, the vote for State offi- cers is always correspondingly affected. Time aud space forbid extended details; but rarely has the demo- cratic party in this State euffered so severely from this cause as in the present year. None of these mischiev- ous local quarrel3 will distract us at the Presidential election in November. In despite of all these unfavorable circumstances, the majority for the federal candidate for Governor is merely nominal. In a vote of probably more than 800,000, his returned majority cannot much exceed, if it reaches, 200. This is more than counter. balanced Bs the alleged palpable frauds on the elective fran- chise in Schuyll and other counties, which defy all explanation on fair and honest principles. In seven of the mining districts of Schuylkill, the increase of the federal vote, compared with last year, is seven hun- dred and seventy-one, whilst the democratic increase is barely seventeen! When Jt is remembered that our opponents allege that the ruinous tariff of 1846 has compelled them to discharge hundreds of operati this increase is as extraordinary as it is impro! unnatural. do not say that we will “tre. election as if had nevertaken place.'’ We do not ad- vise a resort to the soldiery of our State, armed with “buckshot and ball;’’ but we do affirm, that the peace- fal provisions of the law will be resorted to, for a thorough and searching examination of these inex- Pestle sults. It is our deliberate conviction tha orris Longstreth has been chosen by the lawful suf- frages of the people of Pennsylvania as their next Go- yernor, and ifsuoh result shall appear on the legal investigation to be instituted, neither the olvil or military power of the State can prevent him from ex- ereising for the next three years the executive functions, To our feilow-laberers throughout the State, we say be ofgoodcheer! Wediscever inthe recent results no cause whatever for doubt or Lard an eee much for hope and encouragement. All that {s neces- saree carry our State triumphantly for Casas and Butler, is that every democrat shall goto the pollsand deposit his ballot. For their apparent victory, our opponents, not to speak of the Schuylkill fraud, are literally indebted te the fact that thousands of demo- cratic voters have remained in tho quiet pursuit of their avocations, instead of ccming up to tho ballot boxes. Shall this be repeated in November ? : . + * . * . Pennsylvania will rise, like Phoenix, from the ashes of her late disaster.
