Harnisnure, Pa., Oct. 24, 1848. ‘The State of Affurrs at the State Capital--Sir Roger de Coverly. There is a great calm in politiesin this borough, she head quarters of ail the State and tederal poli- tical chques, organizations, and arrangement and distribution of the spoils of victory. All the work- ing whigs are out on the stump—all the available materials of the opposition are out. Harrisburg 1s left to take care of itself; itis the mountains and the mountain valleys, the border counties, and the outside cerners that have to be looked after parti- cularly, while every township organization in the State is counting up its rank and file on both sides, and comparing notes. Men with documents, men with money, men with official promises, all eorts of patriotic men are out among the sovereigns, expounding to them the great duty of rallying for the salvati republic. Office-holders, and men expectiog to hold cflice, are spouting themselves hoarse on the stump ior the safety of our beloved country, and the glorious institutions transmitted to us, con- eecrated by the blood of our fathers. Oh! most inflated and bold bamboozlement! Oh! most credulous end good natured yeeman- ry of Pennsylvania! Why do yod prick up your ears when Cass 1s declared to be a pecn- lator upon the treasury—or why do yousmile, in approval ot the orator, when he declares to you that Gen. Taylor is a natural born fool? The de- magogues on both sides have you undertheir priest- ly supervision, aud unless you can believe that Van Buren is an arch traitor, that Cass is a scoundrel, or ‘faylor a bloodhound, the Union is damned, be- yond ail hopes of recemption. ‘ Here at Harnsburg, it appears that the democra: are stunned by the recentelecuon—that they are not only alarmed, but paralyzed, while the whigs are active, enterprising, all at work, and all bold in taunting and challenging their adversaries — And yet the democracy, though working in comparative silence, it 1s with the silence of the movement of the last charge along the whole line, with fixed bayonets. Never was there a more interesting suspense in a political con- test in this country—never was there such a spirit of determination on both sides to gain the day— never was the issue involved of such vast conse- quence ; for, we do believe, that apon the vote of Pennsylvania depends the election of the next Pre- sident of the United States. A free soiler, the same gentleman whose cin ions, in advance of the late election, have tallied so nearly with the result, gives ites his opinon that, by some two or three thousand votes, the State will go for Taylor; because, says he, bring them upto the ecratch, there are few free soil whigs, except the abolitionists, who will vote for Van Buren, while there are nct afew democrats who are pledged to go for Taylor. In almost pertect igiorance, with all the labor and travel we have expended to ascertain their organization—in almost utter darkness, as to the strength of the tree soilers, the vote they will give, and the parties from which it will be taken respec- tively—we are in complete doubt as to the result. it rests with the iree soilers. According to the ratio of increase of the popular vote of this State, between 1840 and IS4, the vote atthe late elec. uon falls short of the strength of the aguregate poll by 50,000. The aggregate vote polled is 330,000, or thereabouts; while, according to the per centage of increase betw 1849 and 1844, it should approximate to som: ),000 vote The deficit will probably be brovght ont in the election of November. Who will get this balance in re- serve Undoubt a large part of it 1 demo- cratic, and no doubt there isa large portion of it vee soilers, whig, and democratic Now, it appears to us, that the so:] vote is in process of absorption by Cass and Taylor; aud wiule some of the free soilers esumiate their vote at from 50,000 to 60,000, it is not im probable thet it will fall short of 20,000, and that this vote will be chieily taken irom Wilmot’s district, (democratic;) Chester and Mercer counties, (wlug;) Alleguauy, A Washington, and other western counties (whigs and democrats:) but, being almost entirely in the dark as to « third party and its eflects,the late elee- tion afiords no satisfactory standard jor the elec- tion of November, except in this, that it has ren- dered the result extremely doubtiul Alseady there is « good deal of rivalry among the w igs for the place in the Uvited States Senate in lieu of Mr. Cameron, whose term soon expires.

Aspect of Political Affairs in Massuchuedtis and Vermont — Miller, tha Forger, $e. \ As youhave published many details reepecting the probable result of the elections in the different States outof New England, perhaps ome or two | ™*, letters respecting our section, may notbe altogether unacceptable. During the last ‘ertnight, for the purpose of writing understandingly, 1 have applied pretty freely to men of all parties, and from various parts of the State, for reliable tacts ; and, really, the result has not beea of a character to encourage me to any renewal of the under- tuking. Such contradictary statements I never before listened to ; and they all came from re- spectable men, who certainly appeared to believe all that they said. If they are all mght, as they claim to be, then will Massachusetts poll some- thing like 200,000 votes ; for while the free soilers claim rather more than 60,000, and the democrats at least, 40,000, the whigs are ready to swear, by the mane ot those who fell at Buena Vista, that they hall beat both these parties by not less than 10,000 mejority; and it that 1s not piling up hard upon a fifth of a milion of votes, 1 contess not to know what is. Somebody is to be disappoiated ; | but who that somebowy is, I chall leave for the 7th of November to decide. 1 wail give you, how- ever, the result of my enquirres, aud you cau make what use you please of them. i In muking enquiries of the free soilers, T was in Many towns advertised of the fact that many per- sOns—1n Most instances amounting to heavy ma- jerities of the voters—had pledged themselves, in writing, or otherwise, to support the tid party candidates, ‘The aggregate [| found to be eaor- mous; and if 1 could believe these pledged men would remain itm, I should be bound to say that Van Buren and Philips will earry the State.” But, on further enquiry, L learned atatal objection | L bod it—to the chtertainment of any such belief. Ic is, thec these pledges were, In almost every in- ttance, made betore the sitting of the Buffalo Convention, and ere it was seriously thougit that Mr. Van Buren would be nominated by the anu- slavery party tor the Presidency. 1 believe that thousands of those who took ground agatnst ‘Taylor at first, have left the new party, in conse- quence of the nomination of Mr Van Buren, and will esther vote tor Taylor, or wall not vote at, all. In some quarters, however, a great deal of firm ness is munifested by the adherents ot the new party; and, | confess, that after making all possible allowence tor exaggerations, | was surpnised at the nember of persons engaged in it in parucular towns. 1 particularly reler to towas and cities in | Worcester und Middiesex counties, and in the 4th and 5th Congressional districts. Thus, for instance, in the town of Marborough, which ‘used to cast about 440 votes, and give a heavy democratic m rity, | was solemnly assured that there were 500 free soilers'—and 1a Leominster, with less thaa 400 votes, they boast of 250 supporters! They make hardly more moderate statements in Lan- caster, Concord, Hopkinton, Fitchburg, &c.; and in Southborough, Northborough, Sterling, and many other towns, they positively aver that they In the city of Worcester, they are confident of their power to elect representatives to the State Legistuture, and to give a majority for Van Buren over both Taylor and Cass. ‘The idea of any other persons than Allen and Palfrey being chosen to | Congress is scouted by them. Now, whether this 1s the confidence of real strength, or the haughty spirit that goeth before a tall, Ido not feel equal to deciding; but bam certain that [ have found many free soilers in quarters where I did not expect they would exist, and | have come to the conclusion that the vote for Mr. Van Buren will not correctly represent the strength ot his party here. The true test willbe the Congressional elections, which will show a heavy abolivion vote, proba'sly 45,000. Mr. Palfrey, | think, will lead Mr. Van Buren from one to two thousand votes, and Mr. Allen will not be much less ahead of him. | The anti-slavery vote in | the 4th and 5th districts will not be less than 12,000, dging from what | believe to be correct data, and it would not surprise me if 1t should be more than that large wumber. In the Ist, 2d, and 8d districts, 1t will average 4,000 each. It will also be large in the 6th, respectable in the 7:h and 9th, and very heavy, from local cauges, in the 10th. la the Sth, Mr. Mann receives the support, of both | branches ot the whig party, and there will be no very good means of lessening the abolition strength | there. I give itas my opinion, and it is one that 1 know 1s shared by men of all parties in Massa- chusetts-—that if General Taylor should be elected President on the 7th of November, and our whigs should not succeed in running their Congressional candidates in on the 1th, by a desperate effort, there will not be se than three Taylor men, counting Mr. Mann as one of the number. General Cass’s election may Jead to the triumph of the whigs in rural districts, as demccrats would not be seely under such cir- | cumnstan the tree soil candidates, and, for reasons not necessary to be enlarged upon now, they would then prefer the election of old to new whig The free soilers are confident of their abiity, in eny event, to prevent the election of more than one Taylor man, Mr. Winthrop, in the Suffolk district, if their old associates should not succeed by a spasmodic effort inthe 13th. The It of oor Presidential vote will have a, pro- digious eliect en our Congressional elections. Skould that vote demonstrate that extra exertions on either side will be attended by victory to the party making them, we shall see deeds performed by men suck as our political contests have rarely displayed. Whatever Solomon may say to the contialy, the race 1s always to the swilt, and the battle to the strong. But I should be doing my duty to you very un- fauthtully, were I not to state that the tendency just now isto Taylorism among the whigs. This 18 visible,even in the most enthusiastic abolition com- muniues, and in places where the third party has never had a strong hold, it recently predominates. 1 think I state th et an Buren party not at all too low, when I that it does not exceed 35,000, in- cluding whig and democratic bolters, liberty men, and rhdibal of«llrorts. Itis not impossible that it may rule higher than this; _but it 1s equally pro- bable that it will be lower. The true test of the anti-slavery strength, as before said, will be the vote for members of Congress The popular vote tor Taylor will be about 65,000, and that for Cass not much differenttrom 40,000. As the choice ot Presidential electors will de- volve upon the Legislature, the character of that body becomes a matter of undeniable importance. As near as | con leam—absolutely, precision 1s en- rely out of th 1on in the matter—the House of Representatives contains 190 whigs, 80 demo- crats, and 10 liberty men. Of the whigs, how- ever, many are free soilers, who will never vote tor Taylor electors; aud itis very certain that last winter, under the name of conscience” whigs, they were numerous enough, when united with the liberty men and deinograts, to defeat the regu- lar whigs on one or two important occasions. | am of opinion that if the matter depends solely npon the House, the choice of electors of any kind would not be eilected; but it so happens that the Senete contuins thirty-nine whigs to one demo- erat; and of these thirty-nine, it would be hazard- usto say that more than half-w-dozen are anti- orites. ‘The union cf the House and Senate ensure the choice of Taylor electors, unless many of the towns now repregented by Taylor higs, should, by their popular yotes on the 7th and b, menitest a nwhich case their representatives may consider themselves bound, by a sense both of duty and personal interest, to express rather the sentiments of their constituents than their own. [ t tis in contemplation to instruct the representatives how to vote, at theftown meetings on the 7th er | h s the Cassand Van Buren men have it | weir power to instruct, at least two-thirds of members, this course might be decisive of the n. But you may be assured that there 1s gieatand potent influence at work in behalf ot General Taylor, and it the twelve electoral votes of Mas usetts ehall be found necessary to ee- cure his elevation, be will nave, them, in spite of instruction, or anything else. The hunkerism of whiggery is roused, and it is capable of much. There wppears to be a determination on the part of the Vermontdemocracy not to come into any arrangement for transferring the electoral vote ot that State to Van Buren. On the other side, we hear that the whigs in the Vermont Legislature are not strong enough to elect a T: Senator in the place of Mr. Upham: and it that, in the event of Gereral Taylor’s election, a ull-blooded free eoiler will be chosen. The re- cent ballotings for Speaker in the Vermont House of Representatives, would seem to countenance these reports, as they show that the whigs have hot a working majority in that body. There isto be « great time here on Wednesday next, in honor of the arrival of pure water into Boston. A creater stranger never entered the city; and it is fitting that he should be wel- comed in a manner beyond the ordinary.

A company of the neighbors was soon on the trail, which they followed to the mouth of the Cibolo, where it croeged the San An‘onia river. It is generally believed that these murders were com- mitted by a party of Mexicans, as they took special paivs to leave Indian signs along the trail, thinking to produce the impression that the deed was done by Indians.
