THURSDAY, '"OCT. 11, £S6G.

Result of tlie Election. Tho Union party has made a. gal I ant fight and gained glorious victoiies in nil tho Statos where elections were hold last Tuesday.

In [own, tho whole Union Congressional ticket, is electod.. ,:Ohio goes "overwhelmingly for .us, and. Pennsylvania ditto. "My Policy" is swept out of existence.

I In the Sth Congressional District, tho contest has been hot, but Ortli is selected by a handsomo majority, not^witlistanding he had to contend with

Andy Johnson and his official patronage a hundred thousand dollars of fOId Purdue's money, and quite aquan•vtity of whiskey. Mr. Purduo finds that Union men aro not so easily purchased. The Democracy sold out to

J-him

en masse, but when ho catno to "buying rads," ho did not make much I headway. Ho novor professed to bo a /Democrat—always said he was a Republican, and those who voted for him must do it with the understanding that ho was not a Democrat. Yet, for his money, the whole Democratic party supported him as an "independent ^candidate," his namo being so printod •••_: on their ticket. Ho has lost his election, his monoy,and his character and the Copporhead party in the Sth District has gained another chapter of infamy to add to its long, black, treasonable record. After trying to soil out the country to rebels, and failing, «it sold itself to John Purdue for something less than a "mess of pottage," and has now failed to got tho whole of the consideration. They got tho poor ^ld man's money to corrupt tho elocution with, but nothing elso. Purdue .sold out to tho Copperheads, and the

Copporheads sold out to Purduo and both parties now regard themselves as badly damaged by the transaction.— The vile mercenaries have lost all, and honest people everywhero will rejoico over it.

In reference to our county, wo have tho pleasure of announcing a triumph for the whole Union ticket except for Commissioner & Surveyor. Capt. McClaskoy, the gallant soldier, beats Arch. Johnson, tho K. G. C., for the ^Legislature and considering how the

Knights worked for their Chief, and Show he worked for himself, the tri1 umph may bo considered as glorious.

Myrick, for Treasurer, beats Dr. Englisli handsomely. Newt. McConncIl beats his soldier opponent heavily, many Democrats refusing to vote for J3arcus boeause he had been a Union soldier. If he hud been fresh from John Morgan's guerrilla band, ho wo'd have been much moro popular with his part}', and would have been up with tho balance of tho Copperhead ticket. They nominate Union soldiers to cover up and hide their treasonable record, and then scratch when the Election comes and they no longer have ,:uso for thorn.-

Jubilee.

"The day of Jubilee has comethe heavens are bright with the bonfires of Victory the grand Union army has met tho last enemy and routed him horse, foot and dragoon. Tho day of .Lee's surrender was a glorious day, but the steadfast defenders and faith-

ful guardians of the Union and Liberty on Tuesday last gained a victory that will cause a thrill of joy such as the patriotic jjeoplo of this country have seldom experienced before. The enemies of Republican liberty tried to *. murder the country they did murder S Lincoln, and on last Tuesday they marshalled their host to murder the

Eepublican organization. But the undying fame of tho party is only rendered brighter by tho contest. The party that defended the country in •war will over defend it in peaco. Knit together by a burning love of Liberty and Justice, nothing can break its ranks. It will live while the love of liberty shall continuo to animate the breasts of tho people. Money cannot buy it Presidential patronage cannot corrupt it rebels cannot conquer it. It will stand proudly, up so long as a foe to liberty exists in the country it •will ultimately trample down all opposition overy foo will surrender to its summons and its principles—the principles of liberty, justice and equal rights—will be enshrined in the hearts of tho whole people. Its deeds will be gems in tho diadem of tho nation, and its namo add lustre to all that is glorious in tho history of man's struggles and contests against oppression and wrong

'£gg*"Thc Review of last weok says:— "If you want your daughters to marry niggers, vote for Orth." We thought some mighty influence was at work in behalf of Purdue. We see now what it was. .Purduo had .promised to have a law passed to prevent tho daughters of pur democratic frionds from marrying niggers. Purduo is defeated, and we caution'the niggers to boon their guard.~ Some of them may bo "taken by these democratic daughters, at least Bo woo thinks, there re danger, r.

Ylsat Smile.

The bloated puppet of the Review intimates that we enjoyed a "free smile a few evenings since." It puzzled us to understand his meaning at first, but on enquiry, wo found it a low-doggery term for "taking a drink." We do wish tho owners of tho Review could hire a man of some refinement to conduct their paper, instead of t-hej~uppei, whoso instincts aro below the bruto creation, and whoso language is culled from the choice literature of doggery loafers and street scavengers.

We did smile when wo heard of Charley's ineffectual attempts to extricate himself from the ditch near the Methodist Church, and wo aro enjoying some yery pleasant smiles ovor tho election returns.

500 Lies per Week.

The mercenary hypocrite of the Review publishes at tho head of one of its columns the baso falsehood that the "Review has a larger circulation than any paper published in Crawfordsvillo." We dare the hireling of that paper to consent to the appointment of a Committee to examine the Journal and Review subscription books, and test tho matter. Tho said Committee to commence the investigation immediately. We say wo can boat him moro than one hundred.— Accept the challenge, or take that standing lie out of your paper, by which you are trying to deceive your readers.

n'L.'w Deserving of MerH. Wo cannot speak too highly in praiso of the services rendored the true Union party in tho political contest just closed, by our able, eloquent and indefatigable champions, Colonel Lane, P. S. Kennedy, John M. Butler, M. D. White, and others. While .they discussed political tojsics in a' manly and dignified manner, appealing to tho judgment, they left to the copperhead speakers the task of indulging in low an^l servile addresses to the baser passions of the human heart.

The abuse of these honorable and patriotic!gentleman,- by th«j hireling of tho Review, only e'ndoars them to tho heartsbf the people.' -1

"My Policy" at Work —Progress of Reconstruction in Texas. A corrcspondmit of the Philadelphia Press, writing from Austin, furnishes a most interesting and instructive exposition of tho stato of affairs in Texas, of tho working of tho President's policy in that State.

('r,or.\L"

LEGISLATURE.

The Legislature met on tho Gth ult., and the Governor and Lieutenant Governor were inaugurated on tho 9th, the President having previously telegraphed that these things should be done "without hindrance," as though tho Union men intended to prevent by force the installation of the new State Governm?nt,- Nono of them over thought of such a thing, and the only effect of tho President's mischievous telegram was to intensify rebel hostility to Union mon, and encourage them to carry out a scheme already on foot for expelling Uio loyal population entirely from tho Stato.

The first bill presented to the Legislature was one to expend 060,000 to buy wooden legs for rebel solulers.

Another was to donate 320 acres of land to oach rebel soldier who had been disabled during tho war.

A bill to establish common schools, originating in the House of Representatives, provided that no "Yankoo" should over be employed as a teacher therein.

A resolution was introduced into the Senato to remove the dead of the United States army from tho Stale cemotciy.

Senator Foscuo thought tho "vile dust" of these mercenaries was unworthy to be mingled with that of the distinguished heroes and statesmen of the Lono Star State. Tho Stato cemetery should not bo polluted by the entrance into its sacred precincts of such trash. It is a notorious truth that tho soldiers of tho regular arm3' are tho vciy "scum of tho earth." Even admitting them otherwise, it was a placo set aside especially for the "ashes of Texans," and I10 hoped it would never be used for any other purpose. Referred to a special committee.

Senator Stanl$* introduced a resolution to sell 1,000,000 acres of land belonging to tho Stato for the purpose of raising funds to lay off and adorn a cemetery and build monuments to "thoso noble martj'rs to tlie causo of their country" who had been killed in tho rebel armies.

Immediately after tho above, a joint resolution was passed assuring the President of the United States of the loyalty of tho people of Texas, and asking that the troops now quartered in the interior be removed to the frontier.

ELECTION OP

.. 2586 .. 2589

tr. s.

SENATORS.

Tbc correspondent describes the proceedings of a caucus of the members of tho Legislature, held previous to tho Senatorial election, in which the most traitorous

languago

use of by various members, expressions of-intensest hostility to The Government, and devotion to tho rebel cause, being most loudly applauded.— Judgo John Hancock's election was objected to solely on tho ground that he* had been an officer iu tuo United States army, during the war. The gentlemen finally elected, Burnett and Roberts, are of very violent secession sentiments, and wcrochosou upon that ground.

These elections, in the language of Lieut. Gov. Jones, "justify Gov. Hamilton in his charges of tho disloyalty of tho people of Texas," and show that they "aro not yet prepared to resume the rights of self-government, and that that boon has been too soon extended to them. "After tlicso elections," continues the correspondent, "Jones threatened to resign and go home, but that was all mere street talk. Mr. Jefferson understood such men thoroughly when ho said that 'office holders seldom die and never resign.' Jones will not resign, but in the coming -rebellion, which we here see looming up in the horizon, he will act as he did in the last one—he will recognize tho right of these people to rebel and will join them in it. I am thoroughly satisfied that the leaders of tho rebellion intend to forco all .Union men to leave this State or join their ranks by every measure in their power, legislative and social, and I am satisfied that they are preparing for another rebellion, contingent upon an anticipated rebellion of "the Northern Copperheads. They are bending all their onergies to bring this about, and are propared to take the earliest advantage of such a movement. If you will look over your railroad and telegraph and express company guides you will find that all tho leading rebel Generals have been quietly introduced into these companies, and that they absolutely control all the quickest modes of communication and conveyance at the South, a power they can use with tremendous effect in the event.of a new rebellion."

FURTHER EXPERIENCES.

Tho Same correspondent writes from Now Orleans, after finishing atrip in Texas. The following aro some of hiri experiences while traveling in that rereconstructed Stato:

'I'D AS SOON SHOOT A YANKEE AS A DOG.'

"Are any Northern people settling here?" I asked of a planter about .fifty miles south-east of Austin. "Yankees do you mean?*' said ho. "Yes, sir." "No, by and they'd better not try to come here neither I'd asr soon shoot a Yankee as a dog."

These aro the men the President asks us to conciliate! These men who would shoot us down like dogs! These men among whom we would not be allowed to live. As well talk of conciliating the viper by taking it to your bosom.

FOURTII OF JULY IN GALVESTON, IT I do not believe that half a dozen real Texans suspended their ordtnarry occupations or took tho least notice of the groat anniversary of our national independence They despise the nationality which sprang into exist

ence on that day, and would to-day wipe it from existence if in their power. Tho old flag, which in all the remainder of tho world—even in semibarbarous Japan, China and Turkey —is a sure protection to all over whom it waves, would, outside of a few garrisoned towns, be a certain passport to tho nearest limb for him who would be bold enough to display it in Texas, or, indeed, any of tho Southern States below tho 25th parallel of latitude. Wore the flag with "thirty-six stars" left with the people of the South it would be torn in shreds in a moment. Tho rebel flag, however, is carefully folded away, for future use for there can bo nothing more certain than that, if tho .North docs not present a bold and solid front, another civil war will ensue, and that, too, at a loss distant day than most peoplo imagine. There is scarcely a house in the Gulf States which has not its rebel flag and I have asked scorcs of people what they kept it for, and every ono of them, in effect, replied

ult

will come in 'play

some day ice are not done yet." "NO UNION MEN ALLOWED UP THAR." I met

gentleman from the vicinity

of Booneville, a littlo village between the Brazos and Trinity rivers. The country in that section is thinly populated, but tho land is very rich. I remarked that it was surprising that tho population was not more dense, and added that if people from abroad knew the value of Texas land immigration to the State wonld be vory great. "I'd like to see moro folks up thar," said the planter, "but I want the right kind. I'd like to see Mississippians, and Alabamians, and Carolinians, but I don't want no Yankees. No Yankees or Union mon would be allowed to live up thar. We don't want

110

traitors up thar. When ice go into another fight, we want to all go in together. We had a few traitors to the South up thar when the Stato seceded, but I reckon they got out fast and he paused a moment, when ho added, '•They didn't all get out neithor and he made a significant gesturo with his hand to show that somo of them had been suspended to a tree.

The I,oss of the Evening Star. Ono of tho most frightful marino calamities that has occurred for many years was tho loss of tho steamship Evening Star, which foundered about sixty miles from tho South Carolina coast, on her passage from New York to New Orleans. But few particulars of the disaster have reached us.

Tho Evening Star left New York on the 29th ult., with two hundred and fifly passengers, and a crow of lifly mon. Among tho former was Gen. Palfrey, wife and sister. There were also

011

was made

board, Spalding's Circu3 Com

pany, a French opera troupe, nnmberihg fifly persons, aud, lastly, eightyseven public women, who were being taken to New Orleans by the keepers of some of the houses of iil repute in that city.

Of all on board, «only seventeen, mostly members of the crew, are known to have escaped. The ill-fated steamer foundered, in tho great Storm, froni which many other vessels suffered, and the sea was so rough that some of thoso who had succeeded in getting into tho boat wore washed overboard, and perished.

Tho descriptions which we have of the recent gale indicate that it was of great severity and very wide spread. Accounts of several wrecks havo reached us, and we may perhaps hear of still other results of its fury.— Cincinnati Gazette.

Tornado at Franklin, Indiana. LOUISVILLE, Oct. 9. A tornado passed over Franklin, Ind., at 4:30 this afternoon, prostrating the north wall of tho railroad depot, and causing considerable damage in.- tho town. Several lives are reported lost, but the prostration of tho wires will prevent further particulars being given. *0 jSST The Portland (Me.) Press records what it calls "ono of the wonders of tho world" in the case of a woman who has just died in the almshouse in that city, at the age of seventy years. Disappointed in lovo in early life, sho made a vow noverto speak another word during her life and during the thirty-five years sho has spent in the Portland poorhouse, she religiously kept her vow, until deatli sealed her lips, not uttering a single intelligible worcTduring all that time. The Press says that she remained in full possession of her vocal faculties thro'out the sileut years, but does not explain how that fact is known.

Mrs. I. G. Irwin, of Chicago,

committed suicido at the National Hotel, Minneapolis, Minn., yesterday afternoon. She wrote several letters, took a doso of strychnine and went down to dinner. She was taken with vometing, at the tablo, and died in fifteon minutes. She eloped from Chicago, some time sineo, with man who has been living with her up to a few weeks since, when ho deserted her. ar"d his desertion is tho cause of the suicide.

£ST A cabin, containing four negroes working on a plantation somo eighteen miles below Yicksbui'g, OQ tho river, was on Thursday blown up by gunpowder, which had been deposited underneath the house and exploded by unknown parties. The blacks were thrown up some ways by the concussion and badly bruisod, but fortunately escaped death. .-

M. Audiger, a French chemist,

has invented or discovered anew modo of embalming, which dispenses with all the repulsivo details of tho ordinary system. It consists in pouring down the throat of tho. corpse two glasses of a liquid, whose composition is still a secret. The operation lasts but twenty minutes, and in two or throe months the corpse becomes as stone. Experiments have been made with this new method at Marseilles, Algiers, and in the public hospitals,

OneTy'iife too Many—»A Mas'dl Case. [l'rem the Loxhigloii (Ky.) Uuiuiiist.] Some years ago tho wife of Jerry Sharpe, then a slave of Win. Downing, of this county, was sold with two children and taken South. Jerry, remaining hero a slave, and receiving no intelligence of his wifo, married a second time, by which marriage he has several children. Tho other day he received a letter from his wife in tho South, informing him that she desired to come home, now that she was free,

nd end her days with him. This was rather startling news to JCXTV, and as ho is a conscientious fellow, bothered him for a time smartly, but after consulting with his frionds what was best to be done, ho relieved his mind by determining to send for his wife iu the South and support both families. He says it is "tho hardest dealins' ho ever had to do," but dooms it his duty, and will stand up to it.— Jerry is a good bricklayer, and will doubtloss endeavor to do justico to his big undertaking.
