His majority, tf any, will not exceed 209. 8. The entire frve soil and abolition vote, at the Pre- sidential election, will be given to Vaa Buren. 4. Every man who voted for Longstreth will vote for Case and Butler. : ‘Suppose the free soil vote this year will amount to no more than the old abolition vote of 1814 for President, which was 3,200; this will be aclear ioss to the whigs, in a ber, which will secure the State for Cass and Butler. But the free soil vote and the abolition vote, united, will amount to at least 12000 It is generally con- ceded that their vote willexceed that. But, as we de- sire to be clearly within bound:, we will say 12,000, Of this number, at least 9,000 will be aloss to the whig party at the Presidenti«l election. Say that the re- maining 3,000 will be a loss to the democratic party— ‘an admission which will scarcely be sustained by the ult ; then the net loss of the whigs would be 6,000, which would give the State to Cass and Butler by 6, It is scarcely neccessary to add, in support of the estimates we exhibit, that there is a very worthy and respectable religious sect, the Soviety of Friends, em- bracing some 4.000 voters. who nearly all belong to the whig and abolition parties, who, to a man, voted for Johnston, but who cannot consistently, and will not, vote for General Taylor. We are safe in saying that nearly their entire vote will be given to the free soil and abolition candidate for the Presidency. Here, again, may be traced a dead loss to the whigs, which will be fatal to them. ‘ There 1s one item omitted, as important as any other; and that 1s, the personal popularity of General ‘Taylor in Pennsylvania, and the probable draft he will make upon the old democracy. But we shall go more largely nto the merits of the subject to-morrow. Sr. Lovis, Me., Oct. 22, 1848. Return of Troops—Murder of Volunteers—Abduc- tron Case—Child Murder, §c. Volunteers continue to arrive daily from the frontier, where they have recently been discharg- ed and paid off, on their return from New Mexico. Many poor fellows, however, who left here two years ago, are not among the number, the diseases incidental to the climate and the service having numbered them with the dead. Few have falien in battle, but many have sunk beneath the wand of pestilence, or been struck down by the hand of the aseassin. Among the latter I notice the name of Antoine Falcon, formerly of your city. He was tifally tintshed and decorated. Mr. Parker Cam- mings is their architect, and two new art Messrs. Haberstroh and Kaser, lately from M nich, are to do up the embellishments ot dress c1r- cles and proscenium. The cleverness of the for- mer 1s well known and appreciated by all of our citizens who have noticed his werk; while the tasteful conceptions and execution of the latter, we will answer for from an examination which we have made of their work at the beautiful saloon ot James Paikinson, the celebrated contectioner in Eighth street. This saloon isverily a chef d’- oeuvre in graceiul, modest beauty, and has won for its painters the most unequivocal approval. T have thus looked up for you musical and dra- matic affairs in our city, and would like to say something of matters and things in general, and |itice in particular. The former, however, I will Teenie for future communications, while the latter hits been,and will contunue tobe, handled by corres- pomdents far more disinterested and capable than myself. Were I to tell you that the State of Pennsyl- va nia will give its electoral vote to Cass and But- Jer —which I firmly believe—you will set it down to the wish which is ‘father to the thought ;” so 1 w ill not utter another word about the matter, un- jess is be to assure you that both parties are wide | awe ke, and that victory, fall which way it may, | can; 10t be achieved without one of the most despe- | rate and haid-fought struggles ever known in the «com: wonwealt.

This place, which 1s the county seat of Rich- land county, 1s all excitement in regard to political matters. Democrats, whige, and free soilers, have each held meetings preparatory to the co: Presidential election. : John Van Buren addressed a very large meeting here,on Monday. The curiosity of beholding the “Prince” so far from home, elicited more hearers | though the! his guilt. } case. him. Ie was unmerciful upon Cass, jocular upon flattering in regard to ‘the nominee of the Buffalo Convention.” Yet every one spoke highly of his efioit. Much wit and sharp shooting were thrown out in the course of his speech, which was two hours and a quarter in length. ‘When twitted in regard to the impropriety of going around clection- eering for his daddy, he replied “that he was but a shepherd’s boy, for his father was the owner of a large flock of sheep, and that a d—d old ass had broken into the fold and let a lot of them stray h away, and that $ now in Ohio endeavoring to ‘hunt them The Court of Common Pleas for this county, 1s now in session, and engaged in the trial of a negro man by the name of Voorhis, for the murder of a mulatto, on the Mth day ot last June.

Voorhis beat the mulatto in the street, over the head and neck, with a stick about two feet in length, a ‘ol succeeding in that way in inflicting a chastisement upon his oppenent, he strnck him a blow on the stomach with his fist, which instantly felled him to the ground. and he died in ten minutes.

Conummes, Ohio, Oct. 23, 1843. The Whigs of Ohio Still in the Fceld—Their Hopes of Carrying the State for T'rylor—A View of the Vote of the Reserve—An Estimate of the Vote m November--Both Parts Actively Engaged-- The Contest will be Close. We are now within tea days of the close of the hought they had in his favor, they are not without by the Eastern papers that the whigs seem as ready as the democrats are Not so with the leaders of the two parties in Ohio. The whiga of Ohio ire even more sincere, in claiming the Sta‘e, than and the tawyer, concerning the gored ox. Aad I can claim to be an “ impartial judge,” in saying, thatthe whigs of Ohio are sanguine in giving the State to Taylor and Fillmore ; and [ may add, too, as ‘an individual opinion, that they have good for their hope. In a former letter I have snown that while Col. Weller obtained a majority outside of the Reserve, of near eight thousand, Ge- neral Cass’s majority in the same district, would not exceed four thousand; so thet, if General Taylor can get a majority of any thing over four thousand in the reserve counties, he is safe. The “ figures” upon which this estimate is based have been exhibited to both whtgs and democrats, and admitted to be the best view of the probable result they had yet seen. What, then, are Taylor's chances of getting four thousand majority in the Reserve ? . a the vote in the eleven reserve counties stood : cl Polk. Birney. Total, 27.1 20,470 8,252 61,097 20,470 7,505 Clay's majority over Polk. 3252 . 10,757 Whig and abolition majority. Now, according to the probable inerease of voters, these counties Misndhase polled, in 1843, at least fifty-five thousand votes, and given an anti-democratic majority of about twelve thou- sand. But, instead of this, the vote stands:— Ford. Weller. Total. 25,879 16 981 42,860 ‘Showing the following result :— Ford’s majority over Weller,.. 8,898 e democratic vote, . whig vote... . abolition vote, Loss in the ria « anti-democratic yote,......+ “ in the aggregate,..... 8,837 Thus, it will be seen that without counting the material increase of population, the Reserve can poll from 8,000 to 10,000 more votes than she did at the Octoberelection. | i The full vote, therefore, in the Reserve counties, mn §November, it 1s reasonable to calculate at How will this vote be divided ? f Pah From the best information I have received, it is certain that General Cass’s vote cannot exceed the vote of Colonel Weller, but will most likely fall short of it. Say, he gets 15,000; Gen. Taylor's vote will be some five thousand less than Governor Ford’s, say 20,000, which will leave for Mr. Van Buren a vote of about 15,000; and aclear majority of 5,000 for General Taylor, to be “pitted” against the majority General Cass will receive outside of the Reserve, which [ put at 4,000, And, 18 it possiole ? The reader may be ready porexetting that the race will be thus close in Ohio! That such is the anticipation of both the parties, may be inferred from the great and extraordinary eflorts made by their leaders to draw out every voter in their ranks. % On the part of the whrgs, Hon. T. Corwin, Hon. T. Ewing, Hon. S. F. Vinton, Hon. J. Woods, Hon. B. Storer, Governor Bebb, Gen. Anthony, and other able champions, are active in address- ing the people. Governors Metcalfe and Letcher, of Kentucky, and Lieutenant Crittenden and Col. Mitchell, of the army. are also here to aid the cause of Taylor. During the present and next weeks, a general meeting of the whigs will come offineach of the several counties in the State. when one or more of the gentlemen named will be present to address them. a: A similar effective arrangement has been insti- tuted by the democratic leaders; and those popu- lar speakers, Allen, Shannon, M’Dowell, Drake, Olds, Bartley, Morgan, Thurman, Brough, Me- dary, Disney, and others, bave divided off, and are visiting every section of the State, to address and arouse the democracy 1n all their strength. It will truly be a close contest. Boston, Oct. 30, 1818. Poltiics in Massachussetts, §c. There isa sort of lull in politics just now, like that which precedes a new and greater burst of the storm; or, to borrow Campbell's fine idea, ‘The torrent’s smoothness, ere it clash below.” Men were kept, for more than a fortnight, in a state of such delightful uncertainty about the result in Ohio and Pennsylvania, that they have got regularly agged ; and indifference to politics is natural. But it can’t last; your true Anglo-Saxon being a born politician, with an irresistible propensity to be everlastingly pacity away at public matters. The real political gamblers—who are much lixe gamblers of every other kind—are poring over the returns from the several States, and comparing them with the returns in other years. Their con- duct reminds me of what was used to be done at the great playing salons of Paris, and which may obtain there now, for aught that I know to the contrary. At rowge-et-noir many people attended, and kept account of the number of times that each color came up in succession; and they made their subsequent play depend upon this somewhat immoral application of the inductive system to the science of swindling, forgetting that any Jittle straw, which no one can imagine to have eftect, may have a disturbing cause, pave enough to change the pier siehoreny of thousands. The pro- prietors of the places hold their calculations in so profound a contempt, that they punished the cards on which they were made. I think the people might do the same for our political speculators, and furnish them with a supply of Greeley’s Al- manacs, containing the latest returns, which are quite as good as any other. : Colonel Wright’s adhesion to the Taylor party has excited less comment than what I expected it would. The colonel 1s a good-natured, well- meaning fellow, with an abundant flow of words, and a cacocthes toquends wholly without a parallel. Some {of the whigs are annoyed at his having joined them, as he does not pretend to abate one of those radical notions, the holding and advocacy of which gave him at one time no little weight with the radical portion ot our democracy. He was the leader of our ‘“buttenders,” and used to do his best to annoy those of his party who were not ready to rush to the extremes of what I may be permitted to call “red republicanism.” How he can help the whigs in Pennsylvania, where he has gone, | am at a loss to imagine, as he 1s one of the most thorough-going advo- cates of free trade in the United States. However, he is a bold man, and will perhaps attain toa high position under General Taylor's administration. & Have you not remarked in the course of your historical reading, how. often it- is mentioned that when any great plot is in the course of forma- tion, vague and indefinite rumors thereof obtain circulation —“sounds, heard in the air”—* airy tongues, that syllable men’s names,” as Milton says in Comus,” giving a sortof semi-proclama- tion of that which is to be? Well, in our political circles, there are just now such things abroad res- pecting the vote of Maine, and they assume the shape, that it 1s to’be reserved for one or the other of the candidates opposed to the democracy. One man believes that the waigs are all to aban- don their lar ticket, and vote for that of the free-soil State to Van Bu- it ; while ano- the rather than have Cass rr ce either opinion 1s backed any fact that I can ascertain, nor can I trace mors to any responsible source. They wi seem to issue from the teeming brain of some visionary, who has become a little more crazy the rest of the world; and they are no other MEE heb i oo pub- tion than as indicative of the feverish lic opinion. Still, they may mean something, particularly as the Maine democracy do to be working with so much of nation of purpose as I have in less important elections An idea, I find, ext 5 both among whigs and democrats, that whiggery ia ina very shaking condition in Connecticut. ‘It is said that free soilism has made serioustinroads on the party there, and that it will take in a much larger pro- portion there from the whigs than from the demo- ecracy. if this be sc, then must the idea be given up that Mr. Niles has influence at home; for it is known that he prefers Taylor to Cass, as do the Van Burenites every where—meaning by Van Ba- renitee, democratic bolters. Some of the ablest Massachusetis democrats have been to Connecti- cut to aid their friends, preferring to fight. where there is some chance, to wasting all their time here, where there 1s no aoe for their party. The whigs are indeed seriously alarmed about Con- necticut, but I think without much cause. » An opinion prevails to a certain extent, that the vote for Cass and Van Buren, out of Boaten, will about balance that thrown for Taylor, and that the Jatter’s majority will be the whig majority in Boston. This would give Taylor not far from the same majority that Clay had in’44. I think thie 18 a mistaken idea, as I doubt of any electoral ticket having a majority in Massachusetts, I may be leterr to exhibit resent. he democrats dare tobe. True, since the result Cass men make yome It seems to hyve impse of hope,” of which, befor? less right than he is, as there will be a tremendous whig vote east in y and the dem are doing very little im the city.

Governor Briggs will run much ahead of most otherof the whigicandidates. He 1s pious, an abo- litionist, agreat temperance advocate, anda deuced good fellow in many ways. Whether he is for Taylor, or not, 1s known only to the man who 1s acquainted with the opinions of General Ford, of Oho. Mr. Philips, it is currently said, will run behind Van Baren. The thing is not impossible, though I can ecareely believe it [tis not impss- sible that Governor Briggs may be chosen by the people, as he was in ‘44; for, if the third party 1s larger now than it was then, it must be recollected that the democratic party is not so large as it was at that time, by from ten to fifteen thousand. Even bets are made here on Pennsylvania, oy democrats. In one case oddy were given, which showed pluck, if not intelligence. There is a rumor that Mr. Morton is to “walk the plank” immediately after the election. May be so; but President Polk is so artful a dodger that there is no predicting anything about his course. Human and Polk nature are two radically diflerent things. Hartrorp, (Conn.,) Oct. 30, 1848. Elopement in High and Low Life—-Politics— Conundrums upon our New Clock.

The girl, juat seventeen years of age, ahigh spirited girl, of the best of education, and was the rich- est heiress in the town and district. The chap was a person about twenty years of age, who has to work out for $10 a month, sore three miles from the residence of hischere amie. The parties are Gtte* Meer and Mee* OFF, The trouble in this case was just as in all other elopements. Master M. had seen Miss C. “hum from singin schools” often, and had called tofsee his dear at her father’s residence, uatil he was forbidden the house by the parents. At last, the «ld gentleman reasoned with his po a like a Cnristian and father. The mother threatened, and raved at her as a little minx. If she had been left solely to her father’s management, perhaps, the horrible cat: trophe might have been averted. So, one night, when Master M. had seen Miss C. “hum,” as far as the door, having arranged to meet her at three o’clock in the morning and elope, she was as happy.as_a dove, and the family all noted how cheerful Miss M**** was. The next morning ex- plained it all; for she had eloped—sloped—vanish- ed—run away--had given the old folks the slip; and they are now rusticating at one of your crack hotels, in New York, as man and wife. The old folks threaten to cut her off without even a shilling to buy herself a halter. Now, this is wrong— eruel—provided she is repentant. You, father, and you, mother, perhaps, drove that girl to the course she has pursued; but you can still save her; and you can make both her and her husband ornaments to society, by set- ting them up on just as much of your Jand as they will cultivate, that you have for years been unable to do, from the great quantities you own. Look at this subject like rational beings—don’t treat your own flesh and blood worse than you do your brutes. She has a soul—she 13 an immortal being ;—don’t, therefore, doubly damn your injudicious conduct towards her, by driving her out upea the world; but forgive her, as you hope when yon die to be forgiven of the many sins you may have commit- ted in her training. Besides, has she not come honestly by her elopmg blood? Did net her mo- ther and mother’s sister elope? Then, don’t hlame her for “following in the footsteps of her il- lustrious predecessors.” I write not to palliate the conduct of either party—I know not a soul inter- eated therein—but I write, hoping that the parents will show mercy to their offspring, as they will | beg for mercy from Heaven, when they die. What good arises from hundreds of acres of land that you now own lying uncultivated ? What good do these waste acres and miles do you, ye parents! What good will it do you on your dying beds, when you are gasping for a little more breath of this mortal existence, to think how you might have assisteda repentant daughter? How much suflering you might have saved her—if you had only permitted (aye, would you not then wish oe had even gone and invited) them to come and live upon your soil? Pchitics m this State, T can dispose of in afew words. The whigs have kept all their speakers at work like so many eve of “ bellowses,” or, as the boy would call them, “blowesses.” They have not been wise in spending so much for sreonate and horse hire, instead of bending all their exertions to get out voters, and by using personal exertions with the wavering and the “renegade” free soilers, But desmte all the blun- ders of the managers, Zachary Taylor will carry -old Counecticut by at least 2,500 majority. The free soil vote cannot exceed 2,500—the highest num- ber ever polled by the abolitionists. Here the abolitionists have merged their fanaticism into the tom-foolery of free soilism. The free soilers, too, have put every one of their craft upon the stump, that could possibly mount one, and prate about their conscientiousism—even to the editor of their hurdy-gurdy, who was a Clay man, and who, upon the nomination of Taylor, could not support him, because Taylor was nota whig! But this same conscientious man 1 now supporting Van Buren! The democrats, too, have not been idle. They have had their Rantoul and Hallet, old Bay State par exceltence democrats, lo “aid and comfort” to their host of speakers who belong in this State, and who are splitting their lungs and sides in behalt of democracy and Lewis Cass, and their inion of offices. This latter reason is the great spur that operates also upon the whig speakers. The free-soil speakers are evidently actuated by “ conscientous”’ motives, and thirst for notoriety and a dreadful licking—the latter they ea et. For a wee t, a new clock has been in the works in our State Ilouse steeple, the city paying $150, and individuals making up the amount to $500. We therefore have now four city clocks to our 15,000 inhabitants, but this latter one is certainly in the most conspicuous place in our goodly city, and is withal, a great ornament to the State Hoase, &c.; and asthe dome of the steeple 1s surmounted by dame justice, with a pair of well ballanced scales, we hope she will see to it, that time is dispensed by the machine under her scales, with an even- ness and justice worthy of her great prototype. For, certainly, although she is ane of weod, she can regulate the clock under her, ealiy as well as the other town clocks in this city have hitherto been. There are four faces to this clock, one facing each of the four cardinal points. It has not yet been put in operation, and_ probably will not ‘be tor a week to come. But it has already given rise to the followmg puns or ecnundrums, “ Why, is the State House clock like General Taylor ? give it up? “Because it don’t run is the State House clock like Lewis Cass?” D'ye give itup? ‘Because it has got so many faces— one face for the North, one face for the South, ce. Important Inoian Treaty—Four Mitutons ov Acrgs Acquirneo.—General William Medill, Su- Perintendent of Indian Affairs, passed through this city last night, having bought out all the right of the Menominee Indians in the Territory of Wisconsin, whereby the United States have acjuired the title to 4,000,000 acres of new territory in Wisconsin, embrac. ing land on the Fox and Wisconsin rivers, and laid down in the recent maps as parts of Brown, te nf and Wisconsin counties. It embraces Little and Big Bull Falls, Whitney's Mills, &c, &c, Some years ago, Congress granted to Wisconsin the alternate section te complete a canal between the Fox and Wisconsin rivers. The canal could not be made because the In- diana owned much of the land. It has now been bought; and two days after the ing of the treaty, hundred squat had laid irclaims, The very rich and valuable. Several atte hi made to treat with this very old and o: tribe of Indians, of which Osh-kosk is Chief. have been unsuccessful.

Thus the whole mutter is a plain business transaction between the Indians and tho Government. Thero are no resorves in the matter bo make trouble, The Se tage nel took the whole matter into his own hands, and the whole expense (for travelling and all) of negotiating this treaty, will not be $150. General Medill, in all his operations with this tribe, has astonished everybody. His success and his economy, both are unrivalled. “The prosent annul- ties of this tribe cease in 1867, General Medill ar- ranged it so as to commence the payment thereafter im aonual payments, so that the Indi: cannot squat their ‘tg ay nag have it as they need it, It would have been better the Govornment could it bave bad General Medill to treaties.— Chicago Democrat, Oc Fine 1x Mipptxrowx.—We are informed enter from Middletown, that the by the Pamecha n Satarday night last burat on de f, Oo years old, son of Mr. John ies ber, agent of the New England Cordage Company, into a large vat of water, heated to boiling tempera- ture, on Saturday afternoon, at the rope walk on Northampton street, Boston.’ He had been missing for some two or three hours, and nothing was known of his dreadful tate until the beer was found in the vat by workmen engaged in emptying it. Vermont Leorstatire.—A bill exempting home- steads not exceeding $500 in value, from attachment, was ordered toa third reading in the House, on Friday, by a vote of 109 to 91. A young man named Hait, of Wilton, Co: uine- teen years ago, was suddenly deprived of his reason and temory. They have now both returned to him. He was « student, and, when recovered, began to en- quire for his books, as if he had just laid them dowa, 4 resumed his mathematical studies where he left them. Our citizens were again aroused from their beds by the alarm bell, and cry of fire, on Thursday morning, about three o'clock. The fire proceeded from the large building east of the city, known as tho “ New Hotel,” and owned by the railroad company.
