The reason probably is that fifteen ut of the wen districts are largely democratic. The @emocracy generally unite on one man for Assembly, THE CHARTER ELECTION AND THE CANDIDATES. The charter election to take i mber will be, from present appearances a lively contest—a quadrangu- Jar “gerub race.” The Mozart Hall party will nowinate Fernando Wood for Mayor; Tammany Hall will probably Dominate one of ¥ politiciaus for the same office. The Americans will not probably unite with the republi- cans, inasmuch as ‘Thurlow Weed has ignored them, ‘The Mayoralty candidates are as follows:— Tammany Democrats. Mozart Hatl Dem. Isaac V.

Since Fernando Wood has announced himself as a oan- @idate, and nas challenged his enemies to combine all the elements that can be combined against him, there is now ® prospect of such a combination, as Mr. Wood has or- ganized an anti-Regency State Central Committee, and in- tends going to Charleston with a delegation trom the people of the Congressional Districts of the State, to ‘contest those appointed by the Regency Convention. Tam- many may combine against Mr. Wood in order that his defeat might destroy his prestige at Charleston. FOR COUNSEL TO THE CORPORATION. Democrats (Tammany. ) Mozart Hall Democrats. ‘Thomas C.

The Board of Aldermen consists of seventeen members ~ from as many Aldermanic districts, which districts em- £) brace the same wards and sections of wards as enume- rated above in the Assembly districts. Members of the Board are elected for the term of two years, those in the odd numerical! districts being elected “* one year, and thoge in the even num: districts the next following year. + The election this year takes place in the even numeri- cal distritte. At the first election for Aldermen, in 1857, - under the present charter, these eight districts were represented by seven democrats and one republican. Jast year five republican-American Aldermen were elected from the odd numerical districts, and four democrats. If the democracy arc divided this year upon their Aldermanic candidates in December, four opposition | members will probably be elected, in which case the '» complexion of the next Board of Aldermen will be repub- \ Vican-American, te | Sxcoxp Dnstrict.—This district is not at present repre- sented. Alderman John Clancy, formerly President of "the Board, on being elected to the County Clerkship last ‘fall, left a vacancy in the Board which has not been filled, as it ought to have been, by the ordering of a jal election.

Some of the Mozart Hall Assembly Copyentions which adjourned over last week without nominating candidates for Assemblymen, met again last night and made the fol- lowing nominations:—Eighth district, John 0. Reilly; siath district, James P, Dunn; Twellth district, Wiliam age, The Albany Regency in Town. ARRIVAL OF THE ALBANY REGENCY AT THE 8T. NICHO- LAS AND THE CHIEF ENGINEER OF THE REPUBLI- CANS—STRANGE COINCIDENCE, ETC. The Democratic State Committee met at the St. Nicholas Hotel yesterday. There was a tolerably full attendance, all the members of the committee being present with the exception of Mr. A. P. Laning, of Erie, and one other, The candidates for State officers were all on hand, and no doubt prepared to pay up their several assessments in good current funds. There was also quite a respectable sprinkling of promi- nent democratic politicians from the rural districts, witha well filled background of Tammany Hall saints, including the dark colors of Fowler and the brighter ones of John Cochrine. The best of feeling prevailed, and the greatest confidence was expressed, and evidently felt, in the power of the democracy to carry the State in November. Vigorous measures were determined upon for the prose- cution of the canvass with spirit, energy and determina- tion. The halls, parlors and passages, and even the bar- room of the St. Nicholas, were alive with politicia:is. John Stryker was there, claiming sympathy by a slight limp, the result of the terrible blunder of one of the choice spirits of Tammany in knocking him off the platform at Syracuse in mistake for Mr. Alvord. Dean Richmond, Erastus Corning, Peter Cagger, Aaron Ward and a whole host of the prominent managers were present, and all were apparently well satisfied with the prospects of the campaign. ACCOUNT FROM ANOTHER REPORTER. ‘The political atmosphere of this latitude was in a state of great commotion yesterday, by the arrival of Dean Richmond, Erastus Corning, Messrs. Vanderpoel and Lud- low, Confidence Cassidy, Cagger and others of the Albany Regency Circus Company. Also Thurlow Weed, the Mo- loch of the republican party; Senator Wilson, of Mas- Sachuset!s, and William A. Russell. The Circus Company came to town in the express train, and if coinmon rumor is to be believed they used the ‘frank- ing’? privilege in forwarding themselves upon the Hudson River Railroad. ‘The republican quartette came down in the same train, but whether they came on the ‘dead head’’ system de- ponent sayeth not. The precise mission of these rival bands of wire-pulling politicians, just at this particular ting, is a problem except to the in i. Soon after their arrival, the Albany Regency Circus Company, and Con- fidence Cassidy, Cagger & Co., held a secret caucus in parlors of the St. Nicholas Hotel, but the business transacted was supposed to be purely of ’a finan- rumored that the late begging civ of Confidence Cassidy, Cagger & Co., to wealthy democrats throughout the State, ostensibly for the purpose of working the State democrat but de, Facto to pay for the support newspaper, the Aflasand. Argus, not having et with that success in the return of dollars and cents of their sickly m York city, has always been an El Dorado to Confidence Cassidy, Cagger & Co.—a perfect placer in raising the’ cash; but now, in place of receiving rich “nuggets” from our wealthy democrats, who hay n through the confidence games of Cassidy, Cagger & Co., they find the “cold shoulder” turned on them. Hereafter the Regency will have to prospect in other flelds to ‘raise the wind’’ to carry on their indivi- dual schemes. They had better call on the opponents of the “irrepressible conflict’ party. ANOTHER REPORT OF THE MEETING. A fully attended meeting of the Democratic State Com- mittee was held to-day at the 8 plas Hotel. All the candidates for State offices were present, with a large Lumber of prominent democrats from different parts of. the State. The greatest. contidence was expressed in the success of the whole ticket, aud vigorous measures adopt ed for pushing the canvass with spirit. Interesting Note from Mr. Morrissey. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. New York, Oct. 11, 1869. Ihave seen the card of Mr. John C. Heenan, under date of yesterday, in which he responds to my recent state- ment that I would meet him or any other man for $10,000 aside, by agreeing to close a match with me for that amount, and by kindly giving me the option to fix the time for the fight to come off, cither before or after his approaching fight with Sayers. In reply to this I desire to state that I will avail myzelf of the privilege he has tendered me, and agree to fight him after his battle for the championship of England, whether he win or lose, for $10,000 a side, within four or eight months after the date of his fight in England, just as he may choose. In accor- dance therewith I have this day made a deposit of $500 with the editor of Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times, to bind any match we may agree upon. As an apology for my being willing to make a new match with Mr. Heenan, in opposi- tion to my previous determination not again to appear in the prize ring, I have to say thatI do so in order, if possible, to arrest the course that Mr. Heenan has been pursuing toward my friends; and as he has whipped one of my former seconds, and also recently threatened to whip the other, I thought it my duty to them to come forward and give him a chance, if he could, to whip me. It was under the irritation caused by this threat of his that I made the statement which drew forth his card, and not from any deliberate intention or desire on my t to again enter the prize ring. However, havin; what T did, Iam willing to be as as word; and in the meantime, I sincerely pope t Mr. nan may whip the Chainpion of England, so that I may be able to meet him as a winner—a pleasure which he could notafford me now. I will conclude by repeating that $500 of my money is now on deposit with the editor of Wilkes’ ue the Times with the view of binding our proj will remain there for ten days for Mr. if he still feels so inclined. JO] match. It leenan to cover, MORRISSEY. Midnight Celebration of the Malta. The first public demonstration in New York by the mys- terious Order of the Sons of Malta, took place last night. Itis said by a contemporary thatthe Order came from the East, but whether he meant the East Indies, Oriental East, or Down East, we are not informed; but certain it is, ifthe celebration last night is afair exhibition of their numbers and character, it is a rather slim affair. Its introduction into this city is dated back about two years, and then by one of our police captains, who holds the office of G. R. J. A. The Order in the United States num- er about 86,000 members. It is stated that the object of the Order is the distribu- tion of charities and dissemination of good principles. All their public parades take place after sunset, typical of the quietness of their deeds of charity. The procession last night was in honor of the festival of the Seven Car- dinals, which occurs but once in thirteen years, the next one being in 1872. It was formed at half-past ten o’cleck, at the Kece Signum lodge rooms in Broadway, the officers of the Order being dressed in various colored ancient looking dresses, with helmets, crowns, red caps, repre- senting soldiers, spearmen, knights, priests, monks and cardinals, and their faces disguised fromthe de- tection of the outsiders. ‘The rank and file of the Order were attired, some in black and some in white dominoes, and had avery striking resemblance to lhe hosts and grave diggers in our metropolitan theatres. e procession was preceded by a volunteer escort of young men and boys, to the number of one hundred, who walked in six platoons, each man armed with a stick in lieu of a musket; then came the high functionaries of the Order, with drawn swords; then came the banner bearers and javelin men, followed by four burly Dutchmen, bear- ing a large book—probably containing the mysteries of the Order; then the brotherhood strung out in single file, those dressed in black on one side, and those in white on the other. About midway marched an individual personify- ing Death; and directly behind him was a bier, covered. with black cloth, borne by four knights in armor, guarded by four others with Yankee muskets. The procession was accompanied by a drum corps, who played a dead march along the route. The affair created quite an ex- citement, and attracted thousands of people on the route of march, which was down Broadway to Fulton street, past the LD office, and through Nassau street to Chatham, to and through the Bowery to Fourth avenue, and around Union square back to the lodge room in Broadway, where they were dismissed. The procession numbered about six hundred men. ‘The whole affair was quite laughable and amusing, and might with propriety ‘be compared to a triumphal procession in one of the many act dramas at the Bowery or National theatres. Sons of ‘Tre Draytox Parton Operas.—The Theatre Francais will be opened this evening for the first performance of Mr. and Mrs. Drayton's Parlor Operas, a noyel entertain- ment which promises to be popular with the public, Mr. Drayton is an American artist who has won much fame abroad, and Mrs. Drayton is an eminent English prima donna. The operas to be performed this evening are “Neyer Judge by Appearances”’ and ‘Diamond Cut Dia- mond.’” Nixon's Cincus.—This popular company, which has been performing at the corner of Thirteonth strect and Fourth avenue, will remain during this week, and will introduce several povelties. Jt was announced in the pa- pers a few days ago that a great sale of circus stock, Ox- tures and paraphernalia belonging to this mammoth cir- cus would take place at public auction on Monday fore- noon; but, on visiting the place, our reporter found that the matter had been quietly arranged by exe of the pro- Prietors, Mr. James M. Nixon, purchasing est the interest of his partners. Many who had assembled at the circus grounds for tho purposes of bidding, &c., wera accord: ingly obliged to go Away disappointed. POSTSCRIPT.

M., and reached Aspinwall Sept. 28, four days and six hours in advance of the Star of the West. The passengers of the North Star were immediately transported across the Isthmus, and embarked on board the Uncle Sam the same evening, being only seven hours from the time of their arrival at Aspinwall. The excitement occasioned by the arrival of General Scott and suite, made the natives of Aspinwall open their eyes, and frightened some of the “Jamaica niggers” half to death. The frigate Roanoke fired a salute and manned the rigging in the most beautiful manner. As the hero of Lundy’s Lane was passing, the sloops of war Preble and St. Louis, as also the storeship Relief, manned the rigging and gave three hearty cheers. ‘The ships in thr harbor, and the houses of Americans, all brought out our glorious colors; the flags of the differ- ent consuls were displayed, giving to the little town of As- pinwall, for once, a picturesque and beautiful appearance. As soon as the steamer touched the wharf, the General was visited by Commodore McCluncy and officers by the dozen in their full uniform. The civil portion Present were not less eager in thetr attentions The General passed the night with Mr. J. W. Bourn, Agent for the United States Mail Steamship Company, and left next morning for Panama, with many kind wishes from the numerous spectators. The San Francisco papers of the 19th give a long account of the funeral of Senator Broderick, which took place on the afternoon of the 18th. The remains were followed to the grave by about 3,000 persons on foot, forming, with the long line of carriages, the largest and most impressive procession ever witnessed in San Francisco. The streets were densely thronged, and the buildings along the line of the procession all draped in mourning. A funeral oration was delivered over the remains by Col. E. D. Baker. The Americans were preparing for a permanent occupa- tion of the island of San Juan. ‘The English steamer Paramatha is an entire loss. Fifteen humdred of the two thousand dollars ap- propriated towards deepening the bar at Greytown has already been expended. Three rivers remain yet to be opened. Whether Scott will be able to go on with his work remains to be scen. ‘The Roanoke left on the morning of the 4th for Grey- town. The sloop-of-war St. Louis would leave ina few days for Chiriqui. ‘There is no news of special importance from the South Pacific republics. Inquest on the Hon. D. C. Broderick. Hon. J. C. McKibbin sworn:—I witnessed a ducl on the morning of the 18th instant, at or about seven o'clock; it took place in San Mateo county, near the dividing line, and near the south end of Lake Merced; the principals in that duel were Senator D. C. Broderick and Chief Jus- tice D. S. Terry; the distance was ten paces; the weapons were duelling pistols; the friends of D. S. Terry won the choice of weapons; the choice was determined by throw- ing up a half dollar piece, and calling head and tail; the principals after saying they were ready, were given’ the words, which were “tire—one, two,” they were to fire be- tween the words ‘‘fire’’ and ‘‘two;’’ Isaw the pistols loaded. with leaden bullets in the presence of both seconds of both parties; they were accepted as being satisfactory: is: tance of ten paces their eyes were at right angl straight line between one principal and the other taking their pesitions the pistols were taken up by the se conds, cocked in each other's presence, and the hair trig- ger set; each second then proceeded to his principal and delivered the weapon; the seconds then returned some distance out of the line of fire, and the word was given by a second of Mr. Broderick, ‘‘tire—one, two: I could judge, Mr. Broderick discharged ‘his pistol be- tween the words “‘fire”’ and ‘one,’ about one second in- tervening between the reports of the two pistofs; the re- port of Mr. Terry’s pistol was subsequent, but witha very slight interval; Mr. erick appeared to look with su prise at the course his ball had taken; I was about 12 feet from him, midway between the parties; Mr. Broderick seemed to gradually wheel and droop; he lowered him- self upon the ground; I ran up to him, and tried to assist Dr. Loehr in opening his garments; I saw the wound; the blood was not flowing freely; there were no other shots fired; the ball from Mr. Terry’s wounded Mr. Bro- derick; Dr. Lochr then proceeded to examine the wound, and while doing 80, the services of Dr. Hammond were tendered and accepted; the feel rave him all the relief in their power, and in the course of threo quarters of an hour he was taken up and conveyed tothe residence of Mr. Leonidas Haskell; I was with Mr. Broderick up to the time of his death, whieh occurred yesterday (Fri- day) at twenty minutes past nine o'clock A. M.; D. S$. Terry challewged Mr. Broderick; the pistol used I presumed to belong to Dr. Aylett; they wer lighter than the ordinary dueling pistols; 0x. amined the trigger of the one used by Mr. Brode and Lam not positive I did not examine both; ¥ discover. ed no perceptible difference; { looked at them, tried the springs and found them alike, ae nearly as Tcould judge; re was a party on the ground more conyersam with weapons than myself; 1 asked bim to exrmine them; he did 80, and pronounced them correet. The pistols were joaded alike. Mr. Broderick was born in the Distriet of Columbia, on the 4th of February, 1819 The due! occur- red about two miles from the county lino; [do net know: on whose property; we were not aware of any difference in the pistols, while on the ground, and I know of. no dil- ference between them at present; we had a person on the ground for the express purpore of loading the pistols. Leonidas Haskell, aworn—I waa on the ground of the duel; I did not see the firing but heard the reports of two pistols; 1 saw Mr. Broderick fall; there were but two shots fired; 1 do not know of any difference in the pistols; Mr. Broderick was taken to my jouse; T can tall nothing more than Mr, McKibbin relative to ‘the duel; his state- ment is correct, James L.

On the upper part of the right side of the chest, an em- physematous condition of the cellular tissue existed; on the left side of the chest, { the armpit to a short dis- e ondition Was manifest. Between s on the right side. circular ‘xisted of about balf an ineh in diameter, pre- e ordinary appewrance of a gun-shot wound. On retul dissection, ihis wound was found to have pene- trated to the cavity of the chest, grazing and lightly fracturing the right odge of the sternum or breast hone. From its point of entrance into the cavity of, the chest, the track of said wound passed obliquely downwards and backwards in front of the pericardium, without wounding the membrane, to the fifth rib, which was fractured ata point six invhes distant from its sternal extremity, After having travers ed the rib the track of said wound assumed a direction upwards and backwards through the soft. parts] forming the walt of the chest, and the arm pit to the posterior sur. face of the arm, at which point existed a small incised wound. The parts within the cavity of the chest travers- ed by the track of the above described woand were the anterior edge of the upper lobe of the right Inng, the tis- sues existing between the pericardium and the sternum, and the upper lobe of the left lung from near its anterior edge to the point of fracture of the fifth rib. The length of said wound in the left lung being nearly or quite six inches, and being in the greater part of its course much nearer the posterior surface of the lung than the anterior, its nearest approach to said posterior surface being about half an inch. Left Pleural Cority—This was entirely obliterated by old and firm adhesions, the result of antecedent inflam- mation. Right Pleural Cavity—Contained a large amount of lymph and cerum, the result of inflammation apparently subsequent to the oceurrence of the Around the track of the wound, in front of the pericardium, an extra- vasation of blood existed, forming a coagulum some three inches in diameter aad from one-half to three-quur. ters of an inch in thickness. This extravasation existed also to a limited extent in the anterior edge of the right lung. No morbid appearances except those above describ- ed were observ The wound above described was, in our opinion, the cause of death. F. A. HOLMAN, M. D. CHARLES BERTODY, M. D.

Tho rates were the same as those ruling for several months past, say 2 a 21¢ per cent on collateral.

AcaDEMY oF Mivsic.—The annual festival in aid of the fund of the Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum took place yesterday. Two performances were given—the first in the afternoon and the second in the evening. The house ‘was crowded on both occasions, and in the evening lite- rally cramned. The programme included several short farces and comedies, of not a particularly novel character, and a number of popular ballads which are always wel- come. The audience was in a state of uproarious delight impossible to describe, and applauded in a hearty way, which must have been exceedingly agreeable to the per- formers. The affair wasarranged by Mr. John Brougham, assisted by Mr. N. B. Clarke (stage manager), and Mr. John Cooke (musical director). It went off admirably well throughout, and will net a handsome sum to the worthy object in aid of which it was given. Sale of Madame Gazzaniga’s Equipage. ‘The handsome establishment of Madame Gazzaniga, the prima donna, who is about to return to Europe, was sold. at auction yesterday by Henry H. Leeds & Co., at their salesrooms, No. 23 Nassau strect. A beautiful span of little black horses was sold for only $302 50, although it was said they could trot together in four minutes, were only six or seven years old, and warranted sound and kind in every respect. An clegant French two seated carriage, light and stylish, sold for $150. A set of double harness, silver plated and mounted, brought $55; and a lot of whips, blankets, &c., $4. The total proceeds of the sale were $511 50—hardly’ enough to “set up” the wai bler in similar style on the other side of the “big pond There was a very good attendance at the sale and spirit- ed bidding, but the whole establishment, though sold in parcels, was knocked down to one man—a Mr. Poilion. ‘The sum realized is said to be very nearly as much as the establishment is worth, Tae Co1cnEsTer Bank Cask AGAIN.—ARREST or Warren Letanp, or New York.—Warren Jeland, of the Metropolitan Hotel, New York, was arrested yesterday (Sunday) in Greenwich, Connecticut, while Tiding with some friends. He was brought to this city in charge of officer Seeley, of Stamford, by the Sunday eve- ning train, which, owing to some detention, did not arrive till about half-past two o'clock this morning. Ho goes to Colchester, to- , for a hearing. He is charged with conspiracy to defraud the Colchester Bank. Friends from this city accompany him to give bail in any required amonnt. He asserts that it is an attempt to extort black mail from him, as he says that all claims ist him were settied at the time of the adjustment of the matters be- tween Sam F, Jones and the bank. Some seem to think that Jones instigated the arrest. We believe thero is a misunderstanding now between Jones and Loland, and that Jones wants some $10,000 which Leland has, as he believer, of his money. Leland's counsel is Charles Chap- man and Julius L. Strong.—Jartford Times, Oct. 10. IMPORTANT FROM WASHINGTON.

It is understood that the British Minister, Lord Lyons, has received a peremptory and important despatch from his government, demanding expla nations from our government of the course of Gen. Harney in the San Juan affair, to which the Secre- tary of State is now preparing a reply, which will vindicate fully our rights, and doubtless cover the whole ground of the controversy to the satisfaction of the American people. The whole matter will be laid before the President on his return to-mor- row. A communication has been received from the British government, through Lord Lyons, request- ing that their acknowledgments may be conveyed to Mr. Ward, our Minister te China, and Com. Tat- nall, for their friendly conduct at the affair of the Peiho. 18 MINISTER WARD IN PEKIN?—THE REPORTED OUT- RAGES AT BROWNSVILLE—RETURN OF THE SECRE- TARY OF WAR—THE FORTHCOMING REPORTS OF THE DEPARTMENTS, ETC. "Wasmsatow, Oct. 11, 1859. Despatches have been received at the Department of State from our Minister at St. Petersburg, stating that in- telligence had been received there that Minister Ward had gone to Pekin. The government here place no reliance whatever upon this intelligence. It is no later than that already received from Mr. Ward, which is to July 5. The government have received nothing in regard to the affair at Brownsville—in fact, they hardly credit the report. Itis understood the United States have no sol- diers at this place. = The Secretary of War arrived here this morning, and will resume the duties of his department to-morrow. He is much improved The Secretary of the Interior is gathering the materials for his report, and, with a view to despatch, has directed that the heads of bureaus in the Department shall have their estimates, &c., ready by the 10th of October. The estimates of the Pension Office are nearly completed, and those of the Land Office have already been sent to the etary. The following are some of the estimates sub- mitted to the Secretary from the General Land Office:— For surveys in California, $90,000; Kansas and Nebraska, $55,000; Oregon, $31,000; New Mexico, $25,000; Wash- ington, $20,000; other surveys, $68,000. For officers’ salaries, including military account, $282,000; for general expenses of Land Office, $356,000, * ‘The State Department expects that the annual commer- cial statistics submitted to the next session of Congress will be the most interesting document ot the kind yet given to the country. The consols, from whose returns it is prepared, grow each year more familiar with the su®jects upon which they are called on to report, and from better material the Depart- ment is enabled to make a more thorough and satisfactory report. ‘The Agricultural Bureau has in preparation an extended circular—almost @ treatise—on tea. The tea seed are to be distributed only to those who will enter into agreement to observe the instructions of the Bureau, and unite in the yan it proposes to propagate the plants. ‘The recent earveys of the New York Indian lands, south * Kansas, has shown that the southern boundary, here- tofore believed to be the true one, is not correct, and that lands enough for the purposes of the treaty may be re- served upon astrip of country less wide than that heretofore marked out for such purposes. Accordingly, the moneys heretofore intended for the surveys of the lands beyond the true southern line will now be nsed in laying off the west- ern portion of the reserved lands within the true limits, Under the treaty by which these lands are reserved, each of the New York Indians who may have complied with its provisions is entitled to 320 acres of land. Private letters of late date from Carthagena, New Gra- nada, announce that owing to the unsettled state of af- fairs there, the British Consul, who also represents French interests, and the Portuguese Peruvian and Belgian Consuls, had united in an application to American Consul Mathien, to secure his interposition to prevent the United States ship St. Louis, Commander Poor, from leaving the harbor until some other vessel of war arrived. The Consulates had become the depositaries of much valuable plate, jewels, &c., deposited for safe keeping by the frightened inhabitants, and the soldiers had threatened to attack and rob the Consulates. It was feared that unless intimidated by a vessel of war this lawless purpose would be carried into execution. The St. Louis waS accordingly detained at Carthagena several days beyond the time appointed for sailing. THE GENERAL NEWSPAPER DESPATCH. Wasnineton, Oct. 11, 1859. The business of the United States Court of Claims is suspended owing to the absence of Judge Loring, who is detained at home by sickness. Opinions are ready to be delivered in all unfinished cases heretofore argued. There are, perhaps, fifty of them. Considerable interest is manifested in certain influential quarters concerning the law of the last session of Con- gress fixing the Boston Post office in State street. An im- pression prevails that it will be repealed when Congress meets, and the State street party will require all their strength to sustain the present location. ‘The government is satisfied that the yacht Wanderer is the only vessel which has landed Asricans on our coast; but with a view to prevent any further violation of the law, the most stringent efforts have been and will conti- nue to be made to intercept any such cargoes destined for the United States. All the members of the Cabinet are now here. ‘The Commissioner of the Land Office, Mr. Smith, enter- ed upon the duties of his office to-day. The President will return to the city to-morrow.

THE ELECTION IN PENNSYLVANIA, PrLapeirata, Oct. 11, 1869. ‘The clection in this city passed off quietly to-day. It is Stated that an annoying mistake was made in the tickets of the people's party, the tickets folded for one part of tho city being sent to another, and vice versa, and aiso that w large number wero voted before the mistake was dis- covered. The Assembly tickets thus polled out of the districts will be lost. The scattering returns received render it evident that Mr. Mann, the opposition candidate for District Attorney, is elected by over 2,000 majority." The opposition have algo elected one State Senator if not two. The opposition party are now parading the streets with music, bauners, &e., loudly cheering. Scattering returns from Blair county show large oppo- sition gains over last year, when they carried the county by 1,700 majority. Dauphin county elects the whole opposition ticket.

In the Sixth ward a fight ensued about dark, and the lights were put out, during which the polls were closed for half an hour. ‘Tt is the largest vote ever polled at a charter election. ‘The returns come in slowly, but the probability is that Moses Bigelow, democrat, is clected Mayor by 2 smal! ma- jority.
