The elections in Pennsylvania and Ohio, it will be seen by the returns in detail, which we give to- | day, as far as received, confirm the democratic triumphs in those States, but by less majorities than was at first reported. | We published, exclusively, in yesterday's Henin, the first day’s proceedings of the Women’s Rights | Convention at Worcester, Mass., including the imteresting letter of that incorrigible old maid, Harriet Martineau, to her disappointed sisterhood. Want of space excludes the full report, which we | hhave in type, of their subsequent proceedings, till | to-morrow ; and, alse, a more deliberate review of | the revolutionary schemes of this treasonable con- spiracy among the petticoa's. A synopsis of the fina) doings will be found under the telegraphic | head. | An examination of the persons arrested for | having participated in tne rescuing of the negro — slave from the officers at Syracuse, commenced at Auburn yesterday. The prisoners succeeded in | giving bail, in the sum of $2,000 each, fur thei, | gppearanee at couit, from day to day. It appears that the native American mocting at Boston was @ failure. Well, what else could have been expected? Native Americanism, as an ism, was one of the most shallow, mean, and contemp:i- ble dodges that any political party in this country ever resorted to. Howsmall it appears, whea we | corsider that one of the grievazces complained of in the Declaration of Independence, was, that the ; then King of England put obstacles in the way of emigration to this country! Who are . the emigrants that come to the Uxited States? They are persons who, having suffered for ; yea: ard fer a lifetime almost, not only the pains and penalties of despotism, whether under the boasted constitutional government of Great Pritain, or the tyranny of continenta! powers, have been charmed with real liberty here, and sought to participate in its blessings. For this they are grateful, and we are satisfied, that in return, the persecuted who reach our shores would peril all that they hold dearest on earth, life itself, with Pleasure, in defence of the privileges they enjoy: and why, then, should a distinction be made between the naturalized and the native born citizen, in the eircumscribed manner proposed by the native Ame rican party? But time would be lost in debating the matter. Suffice it to say that the good sense of the American people has condemned native Amo- ricanism everywhere; and any attempt vive it , at this day, would be unsuccessful. It is understood that, as yet, no protest from foreign powers, relative to the course pursued by this government with regard to the Cuban inva- | sion, has been received at Washington Another melancholy account has reached us of the tertible effects of the recent gale in vicinity of Nove Scotia. The remains of sixty persons wh were lost during the storm, are said to have been buried inone grave. No less than o2e hundred and sixty versels, of all kinds, are reported to have been wrecked, amoag which we notice one Russian ship stranded and condemned, and one English ship said to be buried in the sand. The Proposed German Revolutionary Pand of Two Millions of Dollars. A letter from Wasbiegten will be found in our eolumns, this morning, of something more than the erdinazy stinding dish of removals from, and ap pointments to, office. [i does no! revive, " tory of an expected change in th direct reference to a more com movement than cven the next Presidential eleo tion.

But this branch of the scheme may be imoginary. It is certainly improbable, if not imprastioable, and we therefore dismiss it. The | German revolutionary loan appears not only prac- ‘al, but a successful exporiment. Dr. Kiai understand, has already collected some forty thou- sand dollars in the United States. The proposed | convention of German propagandists in New York, would ur uestionably give impulse to this fiscal movement; for the symptoms in }.urope portend an eruption too plainly to be confounded with any merely local or temporary causes of dissatisfaction. Our correspondent suggesis that the President and hie cabinet will be apt to pat a check upon this movement, if it should be required, ow the ground that in permitting the organization of con-piracies in the United States against foreign governmen's | with which we are at peace, our own governmont | would be faithless to its professions of neutrality | and itspledges of good faith.

His appearance upon our shores will be only adding @ breeze to the coals and the combustibles. Every- thing around us, as well as across the sea—every- thing, including this German loan, portends a ter- rible ground-swell in 1852. ‘Tue Lerrer or Henry CLay.—We aro gratified | to lay before our readers, this morning, the noble and patriotic letter of Henry Clay, in answer to a late invitationfrom a committee of our citizens to visit this city. The object of the invitation was to secure from Mr. Clay, in New York, on some appro- priate festive occasion, the delivery of his senti- ments and opinions on the present condition of the political affairs of the country. His reply from | Ashland fully comes up to the exigencies of the day. Like the true patriot that he is, he is opposed to all the various cliques, factions, and schools of agitators, looking with distrust upon everything that smells of nullification or secession, but with a confidence unabated in the good sense of the masses After the disastrous results of the Pennsylvania and Ohio elections, it will, no doubt, be refreshing to the whigs to turn in humility ana repentance to the good counsels of Heury Clay. Tlg1s Turrx.—The following paragraph from the Houston (Texas) Telegraph, of October 4, 1851, gives to the much abused C, H. Donaldson, of our celebrated Greer and Donaldson correspondence, a “local habitation.” The Telegraph says :— Several of our cotemporaries are endeavoring to create the impression that Mr Donaldson, whose letter figures in the indevce of the New Yorx Henato, is an that no such person has ever resided in e have been informed, however, that such a person bas purchased a small plantation somewhere in the vicinity of Marshal. and bas claimed a residence in Texas at least one year. It appears from the note of Col. Yoakam that Gen. Houston recognized him as a member of the committee, and it may hereafter appear that his appointment on the committee was made at Washington with the consent of our Senators and Representative, Mr. Howard. These gentlemen should inform their constitu. ents whether they had any agency in procuring bis sp- pointment as a member of the committee. Will the editors of the Washington Union take the track of Mr. Donaldson ‘‘somewhere in the vi- cinity of Marshal,” and follow him up; and ‘ when found, take a note of him?” Webhope so. We also call ugon Gea. Honston to explain, if he did so, how he happened to appoint Mr. Donaldson ; and ip tot, why not? The public desire to have the mys, tery cleared up. So do we.

The tele- graph reported the majority in the city of Philadelphia 2,700 for Johnston, whereas it is 3,117—and the county, which was reported as eetimated at 2 150 for Bigler, turns out but 486 for him, according to. table published in the Philadelphia Bulletin, which is given as the approximate vote, Viz.:—= Johnst Bigler Whig.” ‘Bem’ Philadelphia city. 8, 4.922 | «county. 16,024 Ce 23,878 20.048 Total * 5 Johnston's majority in city and county.......,....2,632 ‘The vote of 1848 was as follow: | Johnston.

The candidates for the county are now afloat ina sea of uncertainty, on account of the delay caused by the di- vision of the wards into precincts.
