Let them attempt to pass one single measure with which they have carried this election, and they will shake the Union to its foundation. The party to which we belong, and whose principles wc have fought for, are for the time being defeated, but we feel a proud consciousness of having dono our duty, as will every democrat and true republican in the county. Had wc an open, manly foe to contend against, the result would have been far different. This momentary triumph cannot be awarded to ?the Maine-law or Anti-Nebraska men, but to the sccret, Jesuitical order of Know •Nothings, who in their sccret conclaves have und are still plotting against the lib«rties of this country. They are Amcrican only ia name. They war not only against the citizens of the Republic on account of their religious belief, but against all who have the boldness to expose and ,'dcnouncc their treasonable designs. It re"mains to be seen, whether this secret, political banditti, burdened with impious oaths, :and with poisoned daggers in their hands, -itching for the heart of the Union, shall be 'successful in crushing out the liberties of 'American citizens. We tell them now, and let every democrat and republican, with trumpet tongue sound it in their ears, that their guilty souls may recoil with hor,ror, "that the liberty they seek to destroy, outlived the thrones of the mightest despo.*ti«ms—survived the crumbling walls of the
Bastile—and will cry 'I still live,' amidst the crackling tires of their hellish proscription."
FOUND.—A large pair of pill-bags was found a few days since at the mouth of Salt River. From the amount of Calomel-ny contained in them they are supposed to have ^belonged to Thomas Whiskey Fry. Rumor says that he inflated them with gas, ?and endeavored to float down the stream,
hoping thereby to make his escape,

TItE ELECTION.
,' -The olection is now over, and with sorrow and regret uo acknowledge the triumph of the «3neiiiies of the Republic. It is a triumph of fanaticism over reason, of
Jacobinism over republicanism. The parity that will now come iu power, will lose no time in provoking war with the south.
0^7* la nearly all of the printing offices in the eastern states, females are employed in the art of composition. They perform their work with much more rapidity than men and are in every respect, when once fairly master of type setting their superiors. Composition as a part of the printing business, properly belongs to females it requires no more physical exertion than sewing and is not half so tedious, besides in a
upon a level with the Lords of Creation who have usurped to an unlimited extent the vocations rightfully belonging to woman. When we get into our new office we shall be happy to give employment to a couple of sprightly blooming damsels, such as the editress of the Olive Branch speaks of.
Rather Spicy.
The editress of the Olive Branch, published at Boston, having received a communication from Nashville, Tennesse, inquiring whether some female printers could be Mred there log. to Nashville, replied as follows: "Every girl in Boston, who is old enough to work in a printing office, or any other office, has a lover, whom she would be just as likely to trade off for a Tennessee article as she would be to swap him off for a grizzly bear. The idea of a Boston girl, who goes to operas, patronizes Julien's concerts, waltzes once a week, eats ice cream, rides in the omnibus, wears satin slippers sometimes kisses the editor, going to Tennessee, except as she goes there as the wife of one of your first class citizens, editors excepted, is truly ridiculous.— Wouldn't a girl in a silk dress, with laceedged pantalets' and shiny gaiter boots, look well trudging through the mud and mire of Nashville to an old barn of a printing office, while, in one corner of the same room, two old darkies are jerking away at an old ramagc press, and in the other the editor is squirting tobacco juice over the floor? Wouldn't she be in a nice fix when the editor and some great brute of a fellow whom lie offended, got to playing at the game of shooting revolvers across the room at cacli others head! Who would make the firo when had runoff, and the editor was drunk? Who'd go home with her dark nights? Who would take her out to ride on Saturday afternoon, and go to church with her on Sunday? No, sir, a Boston girl won't go to Tennessee for love or money. She can get enough of both nearer home.
(From the N. Tribune.) MEDICAL REFORM.
Wc arc gratified to perceive by our exchanges, that tlic movement made by the eminent Professor McCl'atock's, for the introduction ol" asuperior class of nicdicincs into popular use, has mot with unbounded success, and is being sustained, as it should bo, by the people and the Faculty. If thoro is any subject which should claim our earnest attention, is to whom and to what shell wo trust our health and our lives, when wc aro in sickness? Hitherto, a few who cot"Id afford to pay largo foes, have been able to reach the attention of such men as Dr. Mott, Dr. McCHniock, and others, who, like Abernethy and Sir Astlcy Cooper in the Old World, havo become so widely celebrated, as to make it necessary for them inseif-dofenso, to confine their treatment to tiio.^c who could pay thcin most for their time and skill. Dr. McClintoek ia the first man who lias had the public spirit to step out of the conservative ranks of the profession, holding tho distinguished position as he does, and give his prescriptions in a cheap form to tho people. "Wo aro glad to learn, therefore, that tho people aro trying tho mod icincs. and that tho medicines aro triumphantly sustaining the great reputation of their inventor wherever they are used. Give the public a chance to get good xlicincs, and they will ccrtainly buy no more bad ones. "Wc advise such of our rcadors as may need medicines in their families, or such as arc about to travel, to provide themselves from the list of Dr. McClintock's Family Mcdicinca, as advertised in another column of this paper.

NEW YORK Oct. 16.
The Baltic left Liverpool at 8 A. M. on the 4th, with 222 passengers. On the 12th off Cape Race spoke and boarded the British schooner John Clemens, cruising for the missiDgboat—learned all the particulars of the accident.
The Africa arrived out on Sunday. The steamer San Jacinto put back to Southampton with her machinery damaged. When off Texel she broke one of her screws. She will be detained for repairs five or six weeks.
LIVERPOOL MARKET.—Cotton.—Messrs. Milligan & Co., report sales of cotton since Friday at 30,000 bales. For New Orleans, fair demand, and prices advanced one eighth. Breadstuffs—market unchanged. Western canal flour, 39s—Ohio, 34s.— Yellow and white Corn, 37s.
Provisions generally unchanged, and moderate business doing. Lard dull. Eight hours after Europa sailed came official news of a great battle in Crimea on the 21st. The allies stormed the Russian entrenchments. After four hours fighting the Anglo French lost 2,800, killed and wounded—the Russians lost 6,000!
Private dispatches supply tlie rest of the news, namely: That the Russians under Menschikoff rallied on the river Kataskai on the 23d again gave battle to allies, were again defeated and driven to entrenchment behind Sevastopol again rallied and fought the 3d battle on the 24th, and were a third time defeated fled into Sevastopol which was beseiged by sea and land.
Fort Constantine was blown up and other forts stormed. The Russians lost 18,000 killed and wounded. 22,000 garrison captured and were made prisoners of war— shattered remains barricaded James harbor and refuse to surrender. Great rejoicing throughout Britain and France. An attack on Cronstadt is seriously threatened.
On the 25th Fort Constantine was invaded by sea and land, and after an obstinate resistance was earned by storm. The allies then bombarded the city and the fleet. The Russian ships of the line were burned and sunk. The remaining carried the other 800 guns. Twenty-two thousand prisoners was taken. The Russians loss in dead and disabled is estimated at not less than 28,000!!
In Sebastopol alone, Menschikoff with the shattered remains of his army, retired into a position in the inner harbor. They threatened to fire the mole acd blowup the remaining ships unless the victors would grant him honorable capitulation. The allied Generals demanded his unconditional surrender, and in the name of humanity gave him a consideration.
The latest dispatch says prince Menschikoff has surrendered. The British and French flags wave over Sebastopol. The entrenched camp of the Russians, on two heights of the Alma, contained 50,000 men and numerous artillery, and were carried at the point of the bayonet, after four hours fighting. No general officer of the British was wounded.
Gen Ivauabert was wounded in the shoulder. Monsieur St. Arnaud and Lord RagIan commanded in person. Gen. Thomason, (French) was thought to be fatally wounded.
A dispatch states that the garrison at Sebastopol were offered withdrawal, but surrendered as prisoners of war.
Dispatches as to Sebastopol are very conflicting. The one dated Berlin the 3d, says a telegraphic dispatch has been received here from St. Petersburgh, to the eflect that Menchikoff had telegraphed under date of the 25th, that he had withdrawn his troops unmolested from before Sevastopol towards Baktschasern, where he will await reinforcements. He says that Sebastopol had not been attacked up to the 26th.
Russian accounts do not conceal the facts of several reverses in the Crimea to their arms.
A dispatch from Berlin dated the 29th, says the return of the French fleet from the Baltic has been countermanded, and a dispatch dated Kiel the 2d, says the fleet left that harbor that day to join Napier in the Baltic. Napier was before Revel on the 23d.
BUCHAREST, Sept. 30.—It is again asserted that there are 50,000 Russians concentrated in the Dodruschad, and Gen. Ruddiers were constantly receiving reinforcements.
Omar Pacha was only waiting for St. Arnaud to attaek Bes-Arabia. All the arrangements of the Turkish army indicate the intention of a winter's campaign.
The Russians have concentrated in the neighborhood. Details of the Sevastopol news were not expected to reach government before the 6th inst.
The Turks were hastening upon Bulgaria by forced marches to the sea coast. The Austrian Ambassador at Paris cslied on Mr. Doruyn D. L. Hoys to express the satisfaction of his government at the success of the allied armies.
The St. Petersburgh Journal publishes a
decree forbidding the export of corn to Austria. The Paris correspondent of the Independence Beige says it is rumored that a note has b«en presented by England and France to the Cabinet at Washington, requiring explanation of the engagements entered into by the United States and Russia, especially with respect to the nature and conditions of acquisiton said to be made to the United States from the Russian possessions in North America.
Nothing further as to the capture of Sejbastopol. Previous accounts are confirm*'cd.
The Turkish Ambassador presented to the London Times a copy of a dispatch sent him from Constantinople, and stated he entertained no doubt of the truth of the previously published accounts.
THE ARCTIC DISASTER. The details of this melancholy affair occupy the greater portion of the New York papers of Thursday. Several of the officers of the vessel and others have furnished statements of what occurred, from among which we select the following by Mr. Dorian, which is more to the point than any other we have read: STATEMENT OF MR. FRANCIS DORIAN,
THIRD OFFICER OF THE ARCTIC.
The first I heard was the cry, "Hard a starboard." I then understood that there was something wrong. I went on deck and found the vessels about seven yards apart. I stood watching the Arctic, in the full expectation that she would yield to her helm. The other vessel struck her abreast the cat heads. Captain Luce gave orders to clear away the boats. Mr. Gourlie cleared away his boats and lowered them down before I thought there was anything wrong with the ship. By the time we had all the boats ready, Captain Luce gave orders to hoist them and allow no one to enter them.— During this time the captain, carpcrter, and several of the passengers were outside, trying to stanch the leak inside and out. At the same time water casks were being filled and every exertion was used to cause the vessel to raise forward: paid the starboard chain overboard to lighten her.
The Second Officer came on deck. I asked if he was making any exertion 10 stop those leaks he replied, yes I asked him what was the prospect. All the answer I got from him was to hurry up those pumps, that is the main pumps, and those at the saloon gangway I went along the deck and found two of the quarter masters standing by the port afterward quarter boats, I ordered them, by command of Capt. L., to take some weapons and defend it.— While I stood aft, I saw the passengers and crew filling the port forward boat I came along for the purpose of putting a stop to it, and found Capt. Luce in the guards, passing ladies and children into tho boat. Several gentlemen were also passed in. I think about 22 were in it. He gave the orders to lower away, I turned around and saw the after boat perfectly crowded.— By the ftme I got aft they were in the boat, and had the bow fall partly lowered, and from the davits and held on by the after fall, wh?n she tipped over and emptied all out with the exception of three.
With the assistance of Capt. Luce, Capt. Grann, one of the fireman and myseif, we got the quarter-master to go down and pass the painter up, and by hauling on to it as the ship lurched, we succeeded in saving the boat, and hauled her on to the after guards, the engine turning ahead slowly at the time. I took a turn of the painter round the after guard with the intention of keeping the boat there as a last resource.— Some passengers, part of the crew and firemen precipitated themselves right into the boat—at least twenty. They cut the boat adrift and went away that was the last of that boat I saw. There was one quartermaster in her. I walked off the guards on the upper deck, and the passengers proposed to me to form a raft of such materials as I could find on board, and wished me to take charge of the ship. I answered that Capt. Luce was on board, such was his place as long as the ship was above water. He was quite cocl but had lost a good deal of his command of speech. At the same time I found with the exception of him that I was the only officer on board. When I reported to Capt. Luce that all connected with the sailing department had left he gave a sort of a despairing exclamation, and then with his sanction the passengers and myself proceeded to get our spars over
0
a universal rush was made for the boat, so
that no possible entreaty or threat could stop
it. The boat was perfectly crowded, and
in order to save it from being swamped I
verboard to form a raft, main yard, main to be deplored, that such an expedition topgallent-yard, main topsail-yard and sev-, should ever become necessary but it is imerafsmaller spars. While this was being possible not to foresee the possibility that done the remaining engineers took the oth- when the Eastern question is disposed of, er boat, as I understood, to endeavor to there may he a Western question to settle!" stop the leaks, I saw them in the distance The Great Armada has turned in deswhen the ship went down.

Coalition to talk of reducing our swamp her. Mr. Burns, of Adams & Co's proportions down to the Procrustean limits Express, Mr. Thompson of New Orleans, Capt. Grann of New York City, Mr. Jenkins of California, and Mr. and one or two firemen, among whom was Thomas Brennan, of the Island of Scilly
and myself, labored deligently till we got all loss of the ster.mer E. K. Collins, on the secured, which at the time was floating ]ake, news was received of the loss of the within our reach. I ordered the boat to be
taken along, outside the raft, so as to secure i- i, i_-

buoyant to it. To the best of my knowledge about three minutes after the Arctic seemed to settle down, stern foremost. The last I saw of Capt. Luce, he wa9 standing at the after part of the starboard paddle box. In the boat there were several conjectures, some exclaiming, there is the Capt., but to the best of my knowledge he was nowhere to be seen when the ship went down.
According to the descriptions I got of Mrs. Collins and family, (as Idid not know them personally,) I believe she was not in the boat that was tilted over. I made the remark to Mr. Burns that perhaps Mrs. C. has gone in some of the boats that had left the ship. He replied, the last thing he did on board was to fasten a life-preserver around Mrs. C.
The propeller was above water when last I saw her, with about two hundred persons crowded on the poop. The boat in which were the Chief Engineer and his assistants was the only boat that knew the fate of the Arctic. FRANCIL DORIAN.

THE ARCTIC PASSENGERS—CAPT. LUCE AND OTHERS SAFE. QUEBEC, Oct. 14.
The ship Cambria has just arrived at this port, having on board Capt. Luce and others, saved from the wreck of the.ill-fated Arctic.
SECOND DISPATCH.
The following are the names of those saved by the ship Combria: Capt. Luce, Geo. F. Allen, son-in-law of Mr. Brown, of the firm of Brown & Bros., 01 New York, and James Smith, of Edinburgh, Scotland.
Capt. John Russel, who commands the Cambria, proves to be the captain of the Jessie Stevens, whose memorable rescue by Capt. Nye, of the Pacific, will be remembered.
The rescued expect to leave for New York to-dsyr. A TIIKEAT' FROM TIIID OTHER SIDE
OF THE ATLANTIC.
We have often expressed apprehensions in regard to the Armada which France and England have fitted out to force the Nations of Europe into War with Russia, to drive her and keep her back in her barbarian fastnesses and we have hoped that this power might be shorn of some of its terror by the batteries of Cronstadt and Sebastopol, lest it should ride across the Atlantic and threaten our cities and seize upon our commerce as the hostage for such terms as it might dictate.
At last, the London Times hints that this apprehension may be realized. It would not speak in intimations, if the time were propitious for bolder talk. But it is sufficiently explicit. After ridiculing the "boasting self sufficiency of the Yankee nation," it says: "The single word 'steam' should suffice to remind them that the same fleets and armies which now check, and probably soon will humble the Colossus of the North, might, with equal facility, be transported across the Atlantic. It would be deeply
of which the Holy Alliance may measure out to the nations of the world to preserve the balance of power.

TUIRD DISPATCH. NEW YOKE, Oct. 14.
A late dispatch says that seven or eight of the passengers were saved with Capt. Luce also five of the crew, from a raft.
The following is an abstract of a letter from Capt. Luce to Mr. E. K. Collins, of this city.
After detailing the particulars of the catastrophe up to the point already known, which agrees pretty well with the published versions he proceeds: "The Arctic sunk about a quarter to five o'clock, carrying down all on board. After considerable struggling, I rose to the surface with my son, whom 1 endeavored to support. I was again drawn down to a considerable depth, and, upon rising again, in a very exhausted state, a portion of the wreck struck my son on the head, and killed him instantly The scene at this time was awful the surface of the water was covered with men, women and children, calling in vain for help, and many caught pieces of the wreck and supported themselves. I and eleven others got on the paddle box, one by one but during the next two days all but three died, and, although two vessels hove in sight during the time, owing to the dense, fo^, we could not make ourselves seen or heard. Finally the ship Cambria, from Quebec, bore down upon us, after picking up a passenger belonging to the Vesta, took myself and Allen, and the other two. One of the crew was afterwards picked up, James Smith, of Mississipi, and five firemen."

for Key West, but as there ia
no magazine or fort there, and as this is not a point which would be likely to attract the attention of a foreign enemy, we discard the affair. There is another consideration which confirms this view. The present Secretary of War is a military gentleman, who would not be guilty of tlie unmilitary act of transporting artillery and ammunition in the same ship, and that a small defenceless vessel. An enemy might, by capturing the Kite, be supplied with all the means of making most vigorous defence. Besides, when these artielcs arrive at Key West, where are they to be deposited? 35,000 pounds of powder are enough to blow the island out of the water. The shells will be a great addition to the combustibilty.—
