TBK DEfRAT WTRI BB9IMRACT. Tbe Presidential election on last Tues**7. resulted in an overwhelming and disastrous defeat of the National Democracy of the Union. Every Northern State with tbe exception of New Jersey, hare given majorities of appalling magnitade against ns. Abolitionism, with all its sectional and revolutionary elements, has triumphed over conservatism and reason. The election of Abraham Lincoln on last Tuesday, brings us to that eventful period —the crisis—which is to settle the perpetuity or dissolution of the States. If the South has been playing tbe cowardly braggart, sbc will quietly aequicsce if on the other band she is in earnest, secession will be attempted immediately. What calamitics might befall us as a nation, in the event of this last contingency, the future alone ean determine. Tbe election of Mr. Lincoln as the Chief Magistrate of the Republic, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution, can certainly furnish no pretext for the secession of any .^Southern State. The South by her own blind and stubborn coursc in the National

Convention at Charleston, dismembered the Democratic party, and placcd the sceptre of power in the hands of a Northern sectional party. With this glaring fact of their treachery staring them in the face, what sympathy can they expect from those who have nobly struggled for the perpetuation of principles, that gave ns victory in 1856, an) restored the country to peace and quietude, and which was only destroyed by the treachery and treason of

James Buchanan. The Democracy of the North cannot look with complacency upon the attempt of any State to secede. If South Carolina or any of the cotton States, set the laws of the general government at defiance, they must summarily be met with the strong arm of the law. Mr. Lincoln has been clcctcd by a constitutional majority, and for the next four years will be the President of the whole country, and as such it is not only his duty to faithfully eieeuto the law, but the bounden and imperative duty of every Americau citizen, to obey and assist him in their execution. He has been chosen by a majority in the North unpr.ralleled in political annals.— They IIATC seen fit to take him with all the evil tendencies of his Irrepressiblo doctrines, and if the South experiences that oppression, which she professes to dread, she caunot with any justice complain.— The evil councils of her Yancey's, her Breckinridge's, and her Toombs', will alone be responsible for her humiliation. If the Democracy of the North can endure a four year's rule under Sewardism, she certainly can. We have done our duty.

i'i WK HAVK JIRT TIISC AFRICANS AMD Wli ARK TUEIBS, From all appearances it is evident to the most skeptical that the Africans have captured us. The Democracy of Montgomcry county made a gallant fight, but the Irrepressibles, aided by the Quakers and their Breckinridge allies, proved too heavy a combination for us to withstand.

The Breckinridgcrs polled sixty-

eight votes in Montgomery county on last Tuesday. They are no doubt delighted with the result of the election.

WOMOERS or TOE TBLEGRAFD. On last Tuesday night at 11 o'clock, news of the election was received here from New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, and Iowa. In 1840 it took two weeks to bear from the Empire State, and several weeks elapsed before the actual result of the election was known.

sRcnsioiv nevuiK.Tr.

The latest intelligence from the South indicate that South Carolina and Georgia •redetermined on going out. We trust if they attempt anything of the kind, that the President will promptly arrest the lenders and hang them as high as Haman. An example should be made of these trai.•tors.

M. HVRLBI'IT.

The afflicted will rccollect that this eminent physician will be at his rooms, Pursel House, on Saturday, Nov. 24th. The Dr. -is without doubt one of the most skillful 8en of the age. We trust all who need his services will not let this.opportaaitj fct J«sl.

AWACITT AMtlttiMMni. Now that sectionalism at the North hat trinphed, aad tkt disaolation of the Union actually commenced, the warnings of the Fathers of the Republic in its early days are beginning to be realised by those Republicans who for the last four years hare hooted and derided the idea that there was My danger. Now that the warning has become an actual fact, these same restless agitators, these disciples of the Irrepressible doctrine, have the unblushing effrontery to tell Democrats that they alone arc chargeable for the terrible state of affairs into which the country has been plunged. Was there ever such an exhibition of insolence and hypocrisy? Charging with lying tongues and brazen faces the very men who have done everything in their power to avert the dissolution of the country.— The Democracy are yet a power in tbe North, and they will not brook such insults with impnnity. They arc for the Union and against secession in any event. As much as they deplore the election of Lincoln, they have that loyalty to the general government, that instinctive love of country, that will prompt them, with all Union loving men, to assist in preserving by conciliatory means, the union'of the States.

ATTENTION DK.HOCHATS. From the alarming state of affairs—the South having already taken the initiative steps towards withdrawing from the Union, it may become necessary to call a meeting of the Democracy of the county to take into serious consideration the terrible crisis that is impending over the country, and to give an expression of sentiment.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—James Whalen, an employee at tbe depot of the Louisville A Chicago Railroad, was instantly killed on last Friday night, while attempting to cross the high bridge over the ravine near tbe Depot. The night was dark and stormy, with a high wind, and making a mis-step, he fell to the bottom, a distance of eighty feet. Persons cannot be too careful in crossing this bridge at night.

RTIKIINO IfBWS FBOn I be A017TU. From the telegraphic dispatches published in another column, it will be seen that South Carolina is determined on going out of the Union. A number of military cotnpanics in Virginia have offered their services to the Palmetto State. It is evident that we are to have trouble with our Southern neighbors.

t&*Sir John Hcrschel writes to a friend that he has never attempted to make any prediction as to the weather, and that he has not the slightest confidence that any one sufficiently understands the subject to be able to do so with any certainty.

t&TA telegraphic dispatch to N. York, dated Columbia, S. C., Nov. Gth, says the legislature has postponed action on the Governor's suggestion to arm that State until Lincoln is really elected. There is an overwhelming majority in favor of calling a Convention. Resolutions for sending commissioners to Georgia were to have been introduced on the 7th.

'Squire Snyder, old Buck's spiritual adviser, has been figuring upon a problem, and has made the discovery that the first Monday in next March will be march forth. The 'Squire is convinced that Republics are ungrateful.

#QT*Many of the more sensible Republicans now that they have elected a President, feel a good deal like the man who won the elephant. Now that they are the cspecial guardian of Cuffee they seem puztled to know what to do with him.

SST Wc recommend our Democratic friends who feci any ways troubled over the election returns to read Baxter's Saints Rest. Our Breckinridge friends are consoling themselves with committing to memory chapters in the Covode Committee Report.

•^Evcry man who is landless should now insist on the 160 acres promised by the Republican leaders previous to the election.

jar New York has given from thirty to forty thousand majority for Lincoln, Illinois ten thousand Indiana twenty thousand, and Pennsylvania sixty thousand.

19* The Cincinnati Gazette, one of the leading organs of the Northern Abolition party, is opposed to any compromise with the South. They have got to come under the yoke of Sewardism.

EASTERN* LONDON.—One hai not seen the half of London, until he has gone through St. Giles. There live those who have not slept on a bed for years thousands who have not washed themselves for months. They herd together in filth and misery quite indescribable. They cat soup made of bones which have been picked from the dust bin, or saved from the jaws of a hungry dog. This soup is cooked in a rough vessel, of which one is sufficient for a dozen or twenty families. It i3 eaten out of bowls which are literally pieces of patchwork, for they sre made of a dozen pieces of crockery rudely patched and cemented together.

f^Here is one of the Cleveland Plaindealer's best: What cannon will be discharged when we come to march forth?

Dispatches from Richmond to the Times says that there is little excitement there, and the Whigs seem well pleased with the rasult of the election.

Tbe Southern students in the New York Medical University held a meeting last evening to consider the question. There was no action taken, but the question was left for decision at some future meeting.

A dispatch to the World says that current rumors of the seizure by the secessionists of Fort Moultrie at Charleston where not credited at Washington.

His speech was rapturously applauded. Other stirring speeches were made. Efforts were made yesterday to wait for southern county operations, but failed.

James Buchanan, John C. Breckinridge and the leading Southern po'iticians, who broke tip the Democratic National Convention at Charleston and Baltimore, can look apon Abraham Lincoln as their President. They called him into political being, and gave the Republican party that strength which proved resistless in the canvass.— Mr. Buchanan, almost from the commencement of his Administration, seemed bent, if wc arc to judge from the madness of his policy, upon having a Republican successor. To that end tended his miserable vacillation upon the Kansas question his making of it a party test the proscription of good Democrats, and the removal from office of all those who did not indorse his caprice and his vindictive proscription of the leading Democratic Senator, and his insane desire to dictate to the Democratic party in the nomination of a successor, and finally his shameless apostasy to its fundamental principles and organization. Judging from bis acts, we are led to conclude that the old Federal principles which he professed in his youth were never repudiated, and that he joined the Democratic party for the sake of office, and under the belief that he could do it more injury as a professed friend than as on open and avowed enemy. lie has, indeed, been an incubus upon it and if it had been ten times stronger, it must have sunk under the odium which his conduct has brought upon it. Bitterly have the Democracy reason to regret the hour when they called him to the head of the Government. In the weakness and wickedness of his Administration he has rcudercd the worst of our preceding Presidents respectable yea, conferred upon them credit by comparison.
