THE NEW YORK HERALD. NO. 5634. MORNING EDITION----FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1849. THE ELECTION. WHAT IS THE RESULT? Both Parties Triumphant, &e. Ke. &e. The returns from the interior are not so favorable to he whigs, and the probability is that the democrats ‘will have a small majority of the popular vote. The contest has been s close one, and the tickets have been eut up most wofully. One instance ty. It gives a democraflc majority of 250 on all but the Canal Commissioner ticket ; on that ticket, Beach, the whig candidate, has a majority of 300. The full offcial returns, when published, will show some curious results. According to the advices received yesterday over the wires, there is— 1 Rial wii ybably, in the Assembly. ably, in the Assembly, State 7 divi fod between the whigs and democrats. This is not much of a whig victory, after all. It is @ triumph for both parties. The honors are divided. ‘They can both throw up their bate,and hurrah. We gives small whig majority in the Assembly, but the democrats will not admit it. They claim the House, but give a tie in the Senate. Owing to this close vote, the democratic candidates for the United States Senate are already quarrelling for Dickinson’s seat. ‘This is good news for both parties. They certainly ought to be satisfied. Neither are beaten, and both are successful. They should get up bonfires and celebra- tions all over the State. ‘We bave thrown the returns together in the follow- ing order.

Our Pennsylvania Correspondence, Montrose, November 4, 1849. The Susquehanna County Bank. Knowing your desire to give your readers the earliest information of the events of the day, I send you an account of the proceedings in this vil- lage, during the past few days, respecting ‘The Suequehanna County Bank.” It would appear that on Saturday, Oct. 27, Mr. Ansel St. John, as agent, refused to redeem the paper of the Susquehanna County Bank, at 67 Wall street. The news reached here next morning, and caused great consternation. Mr. T. P. St. John, the nephew of the former, and cashier of the bank, arrived from New York on Saturday morning, and during that day discounted paper, received payments on notes, made ex- changes, and transacted business as usual, without informing the community, although there had been, that forenoon, received a telegraphic despatch from New York, advising him of the state of affairs. A committee, composed of Mesers. C. L. Ward, of Towanda, Daniel Searle, Charles Avery and Wm J. Turrell, of Montrose, after inve: geting the business through the week, concluded, last eve- ning, to have a capias issued, under which Mr. T. P. St. John was arrested, and now lies in our coun- ty jail (in default of $40,000 bail), to which he was conducted amid the groans and execrations of the community. The bank has about $200,000 afloat, of which $150,000 has been circulated “ out West,” through a certain egent, of Cincinnati, who was here for a | few hours last week _ I beheve he is well knowa to a certain clique in Wall street. é The jail remained, all th decorated with | the effigies of Ansef St. John and T. P. St John. | The numerous signs, nailed about the window where the latter is confined, give the building quite taken for a pocket edition of Wall street. Sach 1s the indignant feeling of the je, that neither the public authorities nor the sheriff attempted to take them down. Montrose, November 4, 1849. _ Last night, the committee appointed to investi- gate the sinate of the Bank of Susquehanna Coun- | ty, and the alleged frauds committed by Thomas | zB St. Jobn, the ce , reported progress, that there were now in circulation notes of said bank amounting to upwards of two hundred thousand | dollars; whereas, the said cashier, had given the | most positive assurances th circulation, was only forty-nine th and that every dollar should be redeemed with two weeks. The committee say, that there neveg Wasa more stupendous fraud committed in the history of bank swindling. All the ailable funds found in the bank, was under twenty-five dollars. Scarcely an individual can | be found, who bas not more or less of the notes of this roiten bank in his possession. Since Mopiey last, the day the bank closed, the community have been ina state of furious excitement, and every night the bank was surrounded by a mob, hooting, yelling, blowing tin horos, drumming on tin pan bring off pistols, and other noisy, though harmle: proceedings. Last night the directors instituted civil proceedings against the cashier, St. John, and the sheriff arrested him, and he was escorte to the county jail by a mob, headed by 8S. 8. Mal- ford, one of our oldest, wealthiest and most re- spectable merchants. No violence was used, thongh a wooden horse had been provided ; but as he marched along between the sheriff and his as- sistant, the crowd blowed their tin horns, beat their tin pans, yelled, shouted, hurraed, &c., and when the pr door closed upon the wreteh with h, the crowed shouted, ‘ Bank closed,” and merous tremendous cheers. To-day, the Jail house is covered with mong others, the regular bank sign, which ha been torn off und nailed upon the jail, with an effigy astride it. ‘The committee say the bank down, past all hope. Its notes will not sell here at any price. _ Mowrrose, November 6, 1849. Matters remain as last stated, with regard to the Susquehanna County Bank No further develope- ments, although, when the committee report, no doubt it will be rich. Mr. Joho ig still in jail.

Arrival of Henry Clay—Storm—Mrs. Kemble’s Reading—Latham’s Notes— Markets, §e. » The Hon. Henry Clay quietly entered the city last night, and took lodgings at Barnum’s Hotel, having left-home on the 2d inst., for Washington. He is in excellent health and spirits, and although he was overturned in a stage, near Cumberland, he received no injury, and looks as if he could stand considerable political service yet, and, perhaps, anether canvass for the Presidency. Glorious old Harry must be President yet. We have had quite a rain storm this morning, whilst I am writing, mtermingled with roaring thunder and most vivid flashes of lightning. The weather 1s singularly warm for the bleak moath of November. Washington Hall, last might, did not contain less than 1,600 persons, at $1 per ticket, to listen to the reading of Shakspeare’s “ Merry Wives of Windsor,” by Mrs. Fanny Kemble ; and a more delighted audience I have never witnessed — This is the only reading she intends to give in this city at present. A match race is to come off, to-morrow, at the Lower Canton Course, for $1,000 aside, between the bay mare ‘‘ Rose Washington,” of Virginia, and “Tom Toff,” of Marylai The burglaries going on in this city are unusually extensive, even for tais season of the year. The neral belief is that the robbers are mostly free lacks. Several of them have been arrested. The excitement with regard to Latham’s “ Ex- change Bank” notes, issued from Washington, has spread throughout Maryland and Virginia, where they have recently been put in circulation to an alarming extent. A letter from Tennessee says that Duff Green is building a railroad with them in that section; and, indeed, they are furnished to the contractors on all the railroads and canals far and near.

TYRANNICAL PROCEEDING AT MATANZAS—THE QUEEN’S BIRTHDAY BALL—PERSECUTIONS OF THE CREOLES— GOVERNMENT SPIES. A correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune, of the = ult, writing from rans, under date of the 20th says: Some two or thrive weeks since, 1t was roposed, at Matanzas, to give a ball in compliment to the officers of an American sloop of war, then lying at that port (I believe the Germantown, which has ¢ been here, and railed aguin the 14th); and in their application to the Governor of the place for his sanction. Managers did not fail to remind him of the prompt and energetic conduct of “ Old Zack,” in su; ing the recent at- tempt, at New York and other places, to fit out an ex- we ition for the invasion of this island. They moreover intimated that the entertainment might be made to wear the aspect of a compliment to the nation. as well as to the officers, or both. The Governor, however, either doubted bageong « of their patriotism, er from eir applic — by 8 sy some other caure, be met tl did scale. But,en the eventful bh was there to be seen that could be desi: be company. One or two families, indeed, incl Governor, had esseembled; and the room, with all ita seemed “like some ee hall deserted ” No explanation was obtained of extraordinary ab- sence of the Matanceros from their favorite amusement, until the next day, when an investigation resulted in the arrest of five young gentlemen nt tothe best fami- lies of the place. who, it is alleged. ia and sent round to those who were expee! ‘seoretly ted to eealan? at the entertainment, circulars, informing them that the ball would not take place.

A daughter of his having recently died in Colum bia, was buried, but Stack, in conjunction with other persons, disinterred the body, and brought it up to his house—designing to inter it by the graves of his departed children. Hodges was at a_ nei, boring house on the evening of the Bist, when was sent for by Stack to come and set up with the corpse at his house. He complied with request. On his arrival, he was treated very kindly. Stack was sober—though he was them the possession of liquor, and given at such times to drink deeply, when he was “anmene irritable and insulting; a conversation commen concerning some trifling matter, when Stack, dif- fering from Hodges, became violently vexed, ey him the lie, which was promptly returned b lodges, whereupon Stack sprang up, seized a load. ed gun, end made direct at him te shoot him; Hodges made for the door; but, being closely pressed by Stack, drew his knife, seized the gun, averting the muzzle from his body, made several thrusts, thereby inflicting several wounds, one of which striking against the left cheek, inflicted a flesh wound, another severed the temporal artery on the right temple, and the third divided the j lar on the right of the neck—a deadly wound. — Hodges sewed up the wound severing the jugular, stopping the copious effusion of blood.

J.—A fire broke out om Saturday evening, at about half-past 7 o'clock, the ae barns of Mr. Crane, situated on the Bloomfield turnpike, about one-quarter of a mile from Newark, and which, with its contents, con- sisting of near four tons of hay, rye, corn, potatoes, &e., were completely consumed. e firemen were, as usual, promptly upon the spot, but owing to the great distance of the fire trom the engine houses, were of but little service, the fire havi obtained the mastery ere the engines arrived ; the almost total absence of any thing like water, also, in a great measure retarded their efforts te extinguish the flames. The loss cannot be far from $7,000, upon which there is no insurance. The ire is supposed to have originated from a drank: loafer having e into one of the barns to tak ‘or the night, and in whose coat ppened to be a box of lucifer mateh- es, which by friction became ignited and commu- nicating with the hay and other combustible mate- rials, with which the barns were filled, caused the fire. When he was seen to issue from the build- ing, the hinder part of his clothes were all on fire, and he was serieney burned. He w: imedi- ately arrested and taken before Justice Lee, who committed him for a further examination. Another fire broke out at about four o'clock, yesterday morning, inthe black arith shop attach- ed to the foundry ot Mr. Joralemon, at the corner of Clay and Spring streets; it was, however, ex- tinguished without doing much damage.
