Constables are required to put up the not for elec- toral election. now required, by the revised statutes, only six days before the elect'on, Members of Con- gress are to be elected bya plurality only. The bill will undoubtedly become a law, and will be published 8 s00n as approved.—Walton’s (Montpelier) Journal, te onto. It is said by the Taylcrites that Weller received the free soil vote. Let us take a few of the counties that we have reovived officially and show how false are their atatements:— Ford Weller. Whig. Dem. Free Soil Champaign Co. 1,940 1446 1607 1,429 319 Summit, 2489 1,826 2185 1855 376 Clinton, 1,949 1,108 1.238 1,080 795 2.028 2078 1.988 1,091 1,651 557-1395 1950 1'686 2,322 1669 ‘lot 14,087 9,645 9.997 9,398 4.725 9,615 9,396 392 ool amed, Fords majority over Weller is 4,302, the county tickets where there were “ free soil”? candi- dates, the Taylor whig majority is only 601, showing clearly that nearly the en'ire vote was cast for Ford. ‘This is too clear to adwitof an argument Witha “free soil”? or liberty candidate Weller would have beaten Ford from fifteen to twenty thousand votes. — Ohio Statesman. An Ohio paper contains calls for eighty democratic meetings in the Buckeye State, to bu addressed by Senator Allen, Col. Weller, and other democrats. The Pittsburg Gazette eays:—It now turns out that ‘Mr, Ford from hie somewhat equivocal ‘position, did not receive the cordial vote of any party. The old Mberty men would not vote for him—the free soil de saocrets almost universally voted against him—and many whigs refused to support him, because he would not openly eupport Taylor. The Mount Vernon (Ohio) Times, a tree soil paper, says that a number of laylor whigsinthat county voted for Weiler, rather than support Ford. Things are different now. Che wnigs are all united and hard at work, and are determined to carry the State for faylor. Per contra, the Knox County (Ohio) Banner says :- “The number of free soil votes cast in this county is about 600—nesrly ali of which were given to Ford. In this (Clinton) township, there were about 100 free soil votes, 11 of which were given to Weller, 21 to Chase, and 69 to Ford. If the free soil men preserve their organisation and vote for the nominees of the Buffalo Convention, the democratic majority cannot fall far short of 1200 at the Presidential election So it isover nearly the whole State. In some few counties the free soilers became disgusted with Ford, and did not vote for governor at al The truth js, the Taylor party is doomed in this state.—Cincin- nati Enguierer Again, on the Taylor side, the Cincinnati Gazette (whig) gives the following opinion :— © How witt Onto Go ?- She will go for Taylor and Fillmore. ‘The result cf the State election has not weakened our confidence in the least, in this result Many a good and true Whig, who was misled by the false lights and false promises of the Locofoco free soilers, has discovered the wicked devices by which he became temporarily alienated from the good Whig t; PMA csin, although General Ford was known to support Genera! Tay lor. as the whig nominee, yet there were hundreds. if not thousands, who refused to vote for him, simply because he did not make publle procia- mation that he should vote for = Old Zagk” While. therefore, we admit our di tment at the result of the gubernatorial vote in this St lying, as we did, upon the vote of the free soi General Ford, still the developementa and disclosures which this election bas made, and the consequences which are resulting therefrom, strengthen instead of impair our confidence that Ohio will go for Taylor and Fillmore. Few, very few indeed, will be the whig now withhold their votes from Taylor an and give them to Buren.

Hoe, one of the greatest mechanical geniuses of the present age, has just completed mag- nificent improvements in machinery, and otherwise, in the establishment ofthe New York Herald, and is mow on his way to London and Paris, for the purpore of introducing some of his magnificent presses into the newspaper establishments of those cities. During the last six months, we have expended about forty thousand dollars, in machinery of all kinds, and va- rious other improvements. We are now enabled to print a double-sheet Herald at the rate of from seven to ten thousand eopies per hour, and could throw off hundred thousand copies in twelve hours, with the greatest case in the world. Having now the weapons ofa great movement tn our hands, we mean to apply them as soon as possible, to practical purposes. On the opening of the neat session of Congress mean to place before the Senate and House of Re- presentatives, proposals for giving full reports of the debates of both of those bodies, to be published every day in the Herald, and give them a@ circulation throughout the world, of from twenty-five to thirty thousand per day. Atthe opening of the session, wo shall commence giving those reports on our own ac- count; but as it will require a double sheet to embrace the debates of both houses, and a vast expenditure for paper and reporting, we shall propose that Con. gress pay a portion of the additional expense, in the same manner as the French republic pays a portion of the expense of publishing their newspaper organ, the Moniteur. The advantages to Congress, to the government, and to the American republic, of such a plan, would be nu- merous. The Herald is the only American journal that has a world.wide circulation, and a ciroulation too among the higher statesmen and intellects of the age. There are’ several journals in this and other cities, called penny papers, that have a large local circulation, but they are without ability, and not competent to give a high tone to the newspaper press, such as we are able to do by the extraordinary faclli- ties of our arrangements, organization, and prepara- tions of all kinds. The new printing presses which Mr. Hoe has constructod for us, are the only ones of the same form and capacity in the world. The pub- Hoation of each day’s debates of both houses of Con- gress, on a double sheet of the Herald, in the same way as the debates of the British Parliament are published in the London Times, and ether journals there, would elevate the tone of the country, and of our statesmen, and circulate their fame and influence far beyondany other mode that could be adopted. The local journals published in Washington have little circulation, and less influence. Probably, the party papers there have not an aggregate circulation of over two thousand, more or less; while the Herald, as we have already said, circulates nearly twenty-five thousand per day, as can be perceived by our returns; and when the next session commences, we, probably, shall have thirty thousand over all this continent and the wide world besides. This is the practical movement which we have had im contemplation in expending large sums during the last few months. A proposition, embracing these views will be presented to both houses of Congress, no matter what candidate shall be elected, or what party shall be in power, We shall endeavour, even at our own ox- pense, to conmence the plan we have deactibed at the opening of next session, and trust to the good sense and sagacity of both the Senate and the House to con- our in our views, after they shall see their practical efficiency and general merits.

On the expi- ration of the quarantine, they shall be again examine Art. 3.

The London Gazette, in speaking of the late rail- road panic in Great Britain, says :— “ The im: jion has fot abroad—in many oases well founded—that dividends are paid out of capi! A dividend is declared and a call announced and the same ti: ‘The dividend is 5 per cent per annum, for instance, on the paid up capital, w the call is at the same rate on the amount of the share ; thus, as we s few days back re- marked, one pocket is enriched in order to abstract in an equal degree from the contents of the other. The old proberb of ‘robbing Peter to pay Paul.’ is, to all intents and purposes, fully illustrated by such & pro- ceeding. There must be, have before advocated, ® thorough reformation in railway manegement. In- | teliigible and honest accounts must by presented at half-yearly meetings, dividends must be paid out of te. tals must not ncreaeed, nor so man, prea capitals t be i yaced, y calls’ made in such rapid suce 4 economy must be tised. When these matters, thus briefly alluded to, are attended to with care, and the future and present interests of shareholders sedulously looked after, then» change will take place, and railway pro- perty attain the porition it should occupy in the estimation of capitalists, both great and smail.”’ These remarks will apply with as much truth and force to some railroad coiapanies in this country asin Great Britain. The depreciation in prices for several of our railroad stocks, has been caused partially by this em of paying interest on the instalments, as ast as they are paid in, out of the capital, or, in fact, robbing Peter to pay Paul. We have no wish to add the slightest fraction to the burdens which already are depressing these companies #0 low; but as there are many who are daily tempted to purchage these stooks, tw consequence of the great reduction in the price, it is necessary that the actual condition and prospects of each of these companies should be understood. These works are all necessary for the develepement of the interna resources of the country, and it is neoe sary that they should be completed at as early a day | as possible. There is no doubt they will be; but in accomplishing that des'rable result, many of the ori. | ginal subscribers will be ruim d those who come 2 at the eleventh hour wil make fortunes out of them. These things are sufficient to deter all from subscrib- ing to the capital stock of any contemplated railroad company, and it will hereafter be almost impossible to fill up the stook of any company which may be formed.

Tne indictment on which they were convicted is said to have been improperly framed, and the question now is, whether it can be sustained in its present shape, makipg it a common law offence, or whether they should not have been tried under the statute law.

The Rio Grande Border-— Flourishing Settlements— Trade— Agriculture, §c. A short visit tothe Rio Grande enables me to give you some account of the condition and pros- pects of our new settlements. Like magic, a cown of considerable pretensions, and destined very soon to be of commercial importance, has sprung up directly epposite Matamoros. Streets are regu- larly laid out, warehouses have been erected, for- warding and commission merchants, dry gooas venders, grocers, and mechanics of all trades are already in active employment. Hotels, of high sounding names, whose tables groan under the best the market aflords, and whose bars are sup- plied with the “choicest liquors,” are not wanting. The river navigation, up to this point, is practica- ble at all seasons [ort Brown 1s within a quarter of a mile, should protection ever be required, and | nothing apparently can prevent the rapid growth of this town—variously named, Freeport, Mansfield, and Brownsville. ‘The latter, 1 think, will prevail, in memory of the hero who fell gloriously within J It is a singular fact, that as progress is the order of the day on our side of the river, an opposite tendency is apparently on the other. Trace in Matamoros is dull in pro- portion to its briskness with us. Indeed, th proportion should be observed, for there is precisely the relation of cause and effect. Mexi- cans are shrewd in money matters, and the inland traders have little idea of buying in their own towns, and paying the heavy entries, while itis so easy to cross the river and avoid them. A river like the Rio Grande 1s a feeble obstacle to the trader, feta Mat instinct of gain ; and I fear, thatso long as Mexico continues her oppressive tanfis her people will evade them. The inevi- table consequence must be a rapid decay of every Mexican town on, or in the vicinity of, this river, from the Paso del Noite to the mouth. { leara that many Mexicans are coming to thisside. Mexi- cans, too, of every class and occupation, Some are men of wealth, who bring their money, their flocks and herds; and leaving, as they do, their own country, fo escape the evils of a bad govern- ment, wil meke among us quiet and useful citi- zens. Though no admirer of theit race, yet, when | find a Mexican intelligent enough to see the evils of a bad, or more properly, no govern- went, and spirited enough to abandon, if he ean- notreform it, | would welcome him among us. These people have learned much by our sojourn among them.
