The great excitement of the Fremont @ampaig orought to the polis many who, under ordinary eirou” stances, would have remaiced at home; but the pry Apal reason for the lighter vote will be found in the # feaze of population. The lumber business was tho fearce of considerable enterprise in this county for & perics of years, and tended to facilitate agricul- ‘ure to some extent by clearing the lands. Yet in many places the fields are still flied with stumps, tho ground mot having been cultivated, while the disappearance of ‘mont of the pine forests under the axe has rendered no ooger necessary the Isbor of many bundred hands which found steady employment in the lumber business some years ago. The occupation of the ground by farmers has met fully kept pace with the disappearance of the lum- Dermen. The lands are best adapted to pasturage, and ‘wool growing and dairying form the principal branches of agricultural industry. In the present political campaign, thus far, there bas not ‘peen much enthusiasm manifested by the republicans in ‘eis county. Perhaps their conscious strength has in- @uced a spirit of spathy. Whatever of outward demon. Mration there has been made {is attribatadle ‘mostly to the democrats, and the first political meeting ‘anounced in this part of the county the present year is to be held by the democrats in this ‘village this evening. The republicans are somewhat disappointed, because the accomplished statesman, Mr. Beward, was not nominated instead of the accomplished raikeplivter, ir. Linoola, They avow that if the loader of their y had been the candidate they would have given bim a majority of five thousand, which is all ef one thousand more than they will give for Lincoln. At ‘the leat Presidential election every township in this large @ounty gave Fremont a majority, making sa aggregate of more than four thousand over the number of votes cast for beth Buchanan and Fillmore; but this year thore are at least half a dozen towns that will be about a tie, if they do not show @ democratic ascendancy. At the last Stave election, a year ago, the republican majority was reduced to some two thousand six hundred. At this Pres|- dential election, however, as greater interest is manifested Ww the quadrennial contests, & r vote than that of Inst year will be brought oat, and it is probable that the ican majority will ximate that given for Fre- mont. Two-thirds of the Fillmore vote of 1866 will now be cast for Lincola, and ove of the prominent men of that mushroom party in this district is now the repudlican andidate for member of Assembly. The ization ef ihe democracy will cause a good many democratic votes to be cast for Lincoln. In some logalition, espe: eially in the town of Cuba, the leading spirits of the op- procs (and in the town of Cuba reside some of the ‘ing democratic spirits of the county) are disagreeing among themeeives, equally as much 00 account of per- sonal as political considerations, and this will bave a ton dency to lead some of the raok and file to increase the votes which will be counted for the rail spittter, Then the \nconsistency of the fusion movement compell- the Irinh vi be oorabined with that of the Know Nothivgs is particularly preesed aa a telling int by the republicans, the effect of which will na ly be to turn @ portion of the Irish vote over to the republicans. But the vote which was cast last year for Jones will be almost entirely given this fall for the fusion ticket. Then quite a number—two or three hundred, perhaps—of those Rastily given to Fremont, will now be ‘more deliberately given to Douglas, There are but few Breckinridge or Bell men in the county; but a* many as there are will, with only bere and there at exception Amovg bhe Breckinridge mea, stand by the fusion ticket, which will receive @ good #up- port in Allegany county, Yet it is certain that Lincoln will get & majority of three thousacd five hundred in the county, perhaps two or three hundred more than that; mod W's larger aggregaie vote should be polled than \s expected, he may get & majority of four thousand; but 1t i# not probadie that the anticipations of some buoyant Tepudlicans for a majority of four thousand five buadred will be realized. Gerrit Smith has some friends here. Perhaps be will get about fifty votes. ‘Augustus Frank, of Warsuw, will be elected to Congress from this district, embracing the counties of Allegany, Generee and Wyoming. A local difficulty tn reference to the situation of the county seat will make some diiferene> ‘about the member of Assemb/y in the Second or Southern district of the county. Lucius May, the republican can @idate, atande a chance of being beaten by William H King, ihe democratic candidate. In the frst district of the county, Wilkes Angel, formerly American, but now republican, will be elected. Our Ellicottville Correspondence, Fuucorrymis, Cattaraugus Co , N. Y., Got. 30, 1860 Increase of the Vote in Cattaraugus Crunty—The Causem Democratic Gain—The Union Electoral Meket—The Float- ting Vote for Lincoln—The Congressional Contest, dc. ‘The recent emigration into this county will increase the aggregate vote for President thie year perhaps nearly twenty five per cent over that polled in 1856, This in- crease of population by emigration has been made up prin- ctpally of Irish and Germars. There have been more of the Irish, however, and they have settled mostly in the busi- ness towns. This will increase the aggregate vote cousi- derably io the more thickly populated districts, and will greatly sugment the democratic retaras fm those business localities. For instance, in 1866 Bu- chenan bad oaly forty-four votes in the whole town of Olean, while Fremont bad more thao two hundred and fifty; whereas, this year Douglas will gain about two bundred, wnich will make the vote in the town about a tie, The town of Mansfeld, which gave Buchanan oaly Wirteen, will gire Douglas eighty, and #0 in Great Val- ‘ey, and other towns, there are similar changes in favor of the democrats, while in the Fremon\ campaign the re- publicans carried every town in the county. There are qpite amber of persons who supported Fremont in 1866 who will now go for fusion. There has not been #0 moch interest or party spirit manifested bere this fall as tm 1866, and the enthusiaam among the people now is much jess than it was four years ago one week before election day. The Fillmore vote of that year will now be about equally divided.

The Effects of the Revolutionary Reports from the South— The People Sensitive when their Pockels are Touchgd—The Attitude of the Conservative Voters, dc. ‘There was considerable feeling manifested all over the city yesterday on the receipt of the Hxkap, containing such @ vast amount of unmistakeable evideave of the ex- asperated state of feeling existing at the South, much of which, however, bas been already foreshadowed by the correspondents you bave in that quarter, To this were added the reports about the fall of stocks in the New York market; and to this may be attributed the sudden opening of the eyes of capitalists and others here to the momentous fact that a state of revolution already existed im the Southern country, the consequences of which no one can foretell. Soarcely a city in the Western country ig so much interested in railways and railway stocks as Buffalo, and hundreds of citizens beyond her immediate borders come within the magic circlo of the tidal mo ments of the stock board; and when they see chat panic oe cee {te weak mere, an property 'y sinking jue, in conseq @ state Of things produced by the unconstitutional action of their Northern neighbors, they pause and say, “What have we been doing, what have the people of the North been doing, that our Southern orethren should take up arma, and initiate a bloody fratriidal civil war?” people of this only come to their senses when their pockets are touched; and whesher it be the ‘stock market or the slave market, buman nature reasons pearly always alike,and comes to nearly the same con- clasions.

And yet there is another point of view to take of this aubject, referring to the tl of doutherners that Linootn should never take his seat if elested eoostitu- Vopally or otherwise—meaning assassination. This is having ® bad effect here in ihe West, for I have heard found democrats, friends of the South, declare that if such an attempt should be made, they wanted to be the first who should kill the dastardly asmassin.

A MEMBER OF THE LAST LEGISLATURE SPEAKS OUT IN MEETING. 70 THE EDITORS OF THE POeT. Napias, Ontario Uounty, Oct. 22, 1860. The ‘‘Arsemblyman on the Stand,” Mr. MoQuade, pro- Rounces the charges of corruption made agaiust, the ‘Legislature of 1869 ‘‘an uomitigated humbug,” and avers ‘that the man lies who says that bis vote was influenced by pecuniary considerations. He also affirms that my name will not be found recorded in the aifirmative or negative on the bills known as tbe city railroad bills; also, that I will be found recorded in favor of Law’s Metropolitan Gridiron bill, which he denomisaws “an enormous swindle,” adding that the idea of a man who voted for that measure talking about corruption is to ridicuions. All that a man gains by telling 8 falsehood is not to be believed when he speaks the truth. By referenoe to the en da $62, my name will be found re- corded in favor of Mr. Plumb’s amendment to the Seventh Avenue Railroad Dill, to reduce the fare; also to Mr. Robinson’s amendment. On page 1363-6 my nane is recorded againat al) tb yy railroad bills. In his otber statements relating to myself, Mr. McQuade is equally reckless of truth. He ssys that when, on the occasion of the dina! yote in the Assembly upoa the railroad bills, I took the opportu ity to denounce the corrupt agencies employed to secure ‘their paseage, I was silenced by ao interrogatory whether 1did pot vote for George Law’s Gridiron Dill; that spiked my battery, and J shortly disappeared through the cloak room door of the Assembly chamber. On the occasion in question Mr. le asked me did I not vote for Mr. Law’s Gridiron bill? Io reply I said I had been approached by a member. Mr. McQuade, per. ceiving thas I was going to reveal their corruptions, quickly spoke, saying trat he withdrew the question, as it bothered me to answer it. To this I replied that the difficulty was not for me to anbtwer the question, but for him to have !t answered. I then eaid that the New York city ratiroad bills would be to the republican party what the shirt of Nessus was to Hercules; that there would be ® stench following the members who vote for them of which they never would be rid, anlees they followed the example of Judas lsca- riot—after they receive their money go and hang them- selves ‘After seeing every attempt to amend those bills voted down by about eighty to jag Larose from my seatand left the Assembly chamter, feeling that it was a sink of corruption.

M. ‘he ease in the money market to-day was slight ly disturbed by news of some failures at Baltimore, among others that of the old banking house of Josiah Lee & Co. and Messrs. Appleton & Co. De- tails are not yet known; it ia presumed, however, that these failures are caused by the recent heavy de- cline in stocks, There has been latterly a great deal of speculation at Baltimore in mining and other stocks: any shock to confidence was sure to do damage. Should Lincoln be elected next week we shall probably have many more failures to report within a short time, and the winter will probably be a most uneasy one in financial circles. We note a failure here in the tobacco trade—a small affair. Long papenis leas inquired for to-day; short, first class, goes, a3 before, at 6 a 6}. The supply on call is abundant. The business of the Sub-Treasury was as follows to-day:— FINANCIAL The stock market opened with considerable strength this morning, and @ small advance was paid, before the board, upon the best prices of last evening. On the call, however, the tone of tne dealings altered, and the morning session closed with quite a heavy feeling. Between the boards lower prices were accepted in almost every case; in the afternoon a farther decline took place, and stocks closed heavy. The market was hurt this morning by a decline of 3 per cent in Virginia 6's. Various explanations are given of this very unusual event; the truth, probably, isthat some stock which had been hypothecated to Lee & Co., of Baltimore, was sent here for peremptory sale, and found no immediate buyers. A rumor in one of the papers to the effect that large quantities of Virginias were about to be sent here from Richmond contributed to check purchases. Whatever happens, politically, it is probable that the Commonwealth of Virginia will pay her debts; but for all this, if we are to pass through a long and critical struggle, with & possibility of disunion at last, it is not likely that Virginia 6's or any similar security wil be a favorable investment with capitalists. Missouri and other State stocks were steady. The business done in railway shares was quite large; prices opened pretty strong, but fell off about 1 per cent all round by the middle of the day; in the afternoon things were still lower. It is understood that a large quantity of stocks were sold per account of Mr. Van Schaick, who failed last week; but for this the market might, perhaps, have been higher this morning. The stock and bonds of the Michi- gan Southern Company were unfavorably affected by the non-payment of the bonds due to-morrow. Hudson River was stronger; itsold at59} and closed at 684 bid, Erie was likewise in demand, selling at 31, but closing at 30 bid.

We understand that the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad Company have negotiated a million of bonds in England. The meeting of stock and bond holders in the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad Company, held this morning, ratified the arrangemeut made with the city of Milwaukee, so that there is now no obstacle to the reorganization, about three-fourths the bonds of all descriptions have been already surrendered. The June annual interest, due November 1, on the third mortgage and convertible bonds of the Hudson River Railroad Company, will be paid to- morrow, as usual, at the office of the company. Messrs. Baring Brothers have made the Grand Trunk road ‘keepers’ and agents for the rolling stock, which will be continued to be used as hereto- fore for the traffic of the road. On Tuesday of last week the lands, franchises, | &c., of the Southern Minnesota Railroad Company | were sold, in accordance with the advertisement of foreclosure made by Governor Ramsey. They were bought by the Governor, who bid $1,000 0n behalf of the State.
