V K l N K . A 1 OOTOBEIt 27, 1869 TnsT?u;pcratico candidate forGovcrsor of Oliio received less than seven hundred votes in the entire State. The temperance men brought this humiliating defc.it upon themselves by the folly of a few impracticable leaders. TnE Mt. Vernon Democrat says the hoe crop in Pose,;; County this year will be far below the average in num bers, and will c6t come up to the average in Weighty No price, as yet, has been set on pork. Farmers are asking 11 andl2 cents, and packers are unwillicg.to pive this. ' The Saline County , Register learna that money trill soon be forthcoming to pay for all ;vrork 'performed and materials furnished for the Cairo and Vincenneft Kailroad Company, up to the 1st day of t)etober. Assurances of this character have been given to the creditors of the company in Cairo. That road, seems to te in a highly mixed condition. : One day it is going ahead, with, a good prospect of speedy completion, and -the next day work has stopped, and the whole enterprise is in a collapsed condition. "' TnE Cincinnati Gazette eays: Of ficial statements from all parta of the country show that the honest, faith ful, energetic collection of the revenue is telling.' The other day we publish ed the report of Jhe collections from whisky in the ; Second Ohio District for September, 13G9. $119,436 20 more were collected in that month! this year than last. Here is"! another straw : Tazewell County, Illinois, reported for the'year ending September 20, 18C3,. $135,000; for the year end ing September ,20, 18C9, $500,000. It is worth while remembering, in read ieg these figures, that, the? increased collection have only been .made, for six -months.'-'-". -- . A Washington dispatch announces that the forthcoming report of the Secretary of ,War will show that the reduction in expenses on account o pay and subsistence alone during-this year will be at the rate of twenty-six millions per annum. While tho ex penses of the Department for the first quarter of the fiscal year 1868 were $27,893,244 Co, for the corresponding quarter of this year ending September 30th, they were only $15,141,262 50, being a reduction of nearly thirteen millions, The civil employees of this Department have been reduced from 10,000 to 4,000. .: . ' ; ; , .TteTCport of the Secretary of tho Navy will show the reduction of the expenses in his Department for six months, ending September 30th, to the amount of $1,845,000, and in additioPj there is still an unexpended balance of appropriations for, last year, and . the appropriations for the current year ara yet untouched. . A Financial Success. That Gen. Gbant's Administration is financially successful, is becoming so manifest that Democratic papers are beginning to cease their, efforts to cry it down. The persistent increase of tho revenues, month after month, and a corresponding curtailment of the expenses, is a logic so convincing that it cannot be dodged, or its effects on the people prevented from haviDg their proper and legitimate force. Gen. Skxxser is now engaged on his annual report to be submitted at the approaching -session', of Congress. The following statement of the receipts and disbursements of the Government for the six months beginning April 1, and ending September 30, 1869, ;as compared with the same period during the year 1SC3, is taken from the report, and ihows the workings of the new Administration : - Increase of customs receipts, $3,191,724 27; increase of army receipts, $1,055,352 -il: increase of miscellaneous receipts, $15,588,575 64; total increase of customs, army and miscellaneous receipts, $19,834,652 32; decrease in navy receipts, $601,699 31; total increase of receipts in the six months in the year 18b9, over those for the eame time in the year of 1868, $19,233,953 01. Decrease in army expenditures, $32,094,237 31; decrease in navy expenditures. $1,884,808 98; decrease in miscellaneous expenditures, $3,6S3,15G 60; total decrease in the army, navy and miscellaneous expenditures. $37,623,300 89; increase in the customs expenditures,$822,286 30; total decrease of the J expenditures for the six months .in the year -1809, below thoso for the same time in the year 1S68, $36,801,104 59. The above shows an actual increase of revenue to the Government of $56,634,967 60 in the .six months mentioned. So much for the manner in which the Administration is doing its work. It now remains to be seen whether Congress, at its next session, will fol low tho good example by cutting down its eiysnses and inaugurating a moreeconomical policy, or pursue tho old and reckless plan of throwing aw8y money in every conceivable folly. The exposure of some of the appropriations by the last Congress have attracted the attention of tho people, and they will ecrutinizo the allow ances this Winter with unusual care. If money is to bo voted for kid gloves, eau-de-Cologne, pocket knives, and on female favorites, the peoplo will ask their Representatives to explain the whys and wherefores, and will not be .put off by pleas of ignorance. If Congress will only second the cffort3 of General Geant and his Cabinet, the public debt will be reduced fully one hundred and fifty million dollars the first year of his administration. The people expect Congress .to do jast this thing, and that is about all it can do to benefit the country. A Mississippi Judge has just decided that the intermarriage of whites end aegroes " is lawful in the State of Mississippi, the law of the State to thi i contrary notwithstanding."

THS Grayviila Independent denies ' our statement that it is animated by local jealousy in its hostility to the donation by White County of ono hundrpd thousand dollars to aid in the construction of the Evansvillo & Carmi Railroad. It says : If the Journal was as well acquainted with tha real state of affairs here, as we are, it would hardly call our opposition to this last straw on the camel's back, a short-sighted policy. It is well known here that EvansvilJe needs this road much more than tho White County farmers do, and it is not giving the latter much credit for sagacity when you ask them to assume a debt they can never pay.

(or the purpose ot gaming tae prmedze of sending their produce to Evansville. Many farmers in White and Edwards, think that with the help of the C. & V. lvoad, which tcill be built, and that soon, they may posibly nnd a road to market until the wealth that road brings them will enable them to build ono to Evansville or some other eligible point on the Ohio River. We confess that ' we are- not as well acquainted wita the internal affairs . of White County 83 the editor .cf the' Independent ought to be, and perhaps is. But on general principles we recognize the fast that the county cannot possibly invest one hundred thousand dollars to better advantage than in4 the con struction of a railroad running- di rectly through, the county and con necting it with two of the best markets for its produce , in .the country. We do not think : Evansville needs the road more than the farmers of White County. With them it is an absolute necessity. . They are likely to have no other outlet for their crops. V; Evans ville has several outlets, and will still have advantage 'over competitors in White County - if it remains seeluded from all railway connection with the balance of tho ' counlry." Evansville does not deny that she is anxious for a railroad connection with the people of Southern . Illinois, and she ia willing to subscribe liberany for that'purpose ; We : think the Independent is not justified, by tho present condition o the Vincennes and. Cairo. Road, 'to speak so positively of its early com pletion. Oar advices from" all quar ters are to the effect. that the , "enter prise has pretty .effectually collapsed, and that year3 must elapse before it is finished, if it is ever completed. . .The Pennsylvania Central Railroad, with the sagacity that ha3 always characterized: that corporation, refused io tako hold of the Vincennes and Cairo concern, because it regarded the road as impracticable in evcry'particular. In the first place, it is a very expensive road to build, and in tho next place, it is doubtful whether it could pay running expenses if it was com plOtcd. ' - ' I : ..' I .. ',;. ' i It may be that, White County will refuse to vote ; the subscription to the Evansville and Carmi-Road, asked for. It. tho does, we think she will be voting against the railroad enterprise which would be first completed and do her people the 4 most good. Seven or 'eight; per cent, interest on one hundred thousand dollars, docs not amount to a great deal for a rich county like White, and would be far more than returned to the people by the early eoTnnlfttinn of the road. Ihe Defeat of Andrew Johnson. The Nashville correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial k''f 3 the following description of tht scenes in Nashville at tho Senatori.il election. After stating that the twelve Radicals held tho balance of powet and: dictated the nomination of t. Senator Cooper, tho correspondent says: The morrow came, the two Houses met in joint assembly, and tho balloting commenced. The roll of the Senate was called, and the vote of that body stood Johnson 10,' Cooper 14. Mr. Cooper himself did not vote. The vote of the House was taken, which resulted in a tie Cooper 41, Johnson 41. Joint vote, Johnsom 51, Cooper 55; Cooper's majority 4. ' When the result was known,, the galleries resounded with cheers and applause, and the speaker could, cot make his ' gavel heard, though, he rapped most vigorously. So'far as the galleries were t concerned, : the popular sentiment Yseemed , to,,- be against Johnson. - ! i Everything was immediately thrown into- confusion. , The mends or Cooper made a 'rush for ; him, and nearly overwhelmed tho little man with the ardor and energy or their congratulations. He was fairly car ried out of the Hall ot Representa tives into the benato Chamber, where new embraces and congratulations awaited him. A. very laTge man then seized him by one arm and dragged him off, nobody knows where.-.. Amid much confusion both - nouses ad journed until next Monday. ' ;' - bome ot Johnson s friends immediately ran to the Maxwell House to inform their defeated chieftain of the sorrowful news. He evinced no emotion, (he never evinces emotion at anything,) but . it cut him deeply, deeply. After such a long and successful lifa as his ha3 been, to be de: fcatednow, carried more than ordinary bitterness with it. It was a lucky thing for the Opposition that they had a Cooper, for without him they would not havo won the Radical vote, a3 the faithful twelve would havo all, or nearly all. voted for Johnson before they would for Etheridgo. They were on the look out for a man that came the nearest to being of their politics, and found such a man in Henry Cooper. To be sure, he is not a Radical, nor yet a Republican,, but he wa3 a staunch Unionist during the war. and has never been a very bitter opponent of the Republican party. He: never "stormed" against them as have Johnson ana Xitoeriage, nor ever accused them ot being guilty of all sorts of crimes against the Constitu tion and the, sacred while man, as have these worthies. He is a moderi ate man, in every sense of the word, and will make a good Senator; Still he is far behind Johnson in point of native ability and experience.. When the mixed caucus of Conservatives and Radicals resolved to unite on Cooper, a hard and painful task was imposed on his brother, Edmund Cooper. Edmund was the man who placed Mr. Johnson's name in nomination, and had been a stroDg Johnson man all the time, refusing to run against him, as ho has been frequently urged to do. But no amount of urging could persuade him to let his name be used against his old

friend. Besides beina; a life-long friend to Johnson, he was under many obligations to him. When Johnson was President he employed Cooper a3 his private secretary, for a while, and then appointed him Assistant Secretary of the Treasury.

When tne vote was taken to-dav. Mr. Cooper voted for his brother, but he shed tears in doing so. lie wept. but the weeping did credit to his head and heart. The task imposed uDon one in such a case is difficult,, upon the one hand a brother, upon the other a dearly loved friend and benefactor. Ihe news of the defeat of Johnson spread over town like wild fire, and caused much excitement, as might be supposed. Nothing is talked of, or hardly thought or this evening, but the defeat of Andy." Just now an excited old gentleman rushed into my room and acted as if he had concluded io go crazy upon the subject. "There's no telling, he exclaimed, wnat iraa d d Nashville can do when she sets her head to it. She's succeeded in defeating the greatest man in the United 11- tl 1 Lt 1 A . t States, and elected a clever little letlow, who will be plumb-lost among them big Radicals at Washington. I say it's a d dshame," and after say ing it he rushed out again to continue his lamentations elsewhere. . . By lar the ablest, most severe and most effective opponent that Johnson has encountered in Nashville has been the Republican Banner. This paper has been as industrious in trying to defeat him, as it has been successful in doing' itrand" the credit " of laying him for a time on the ehelf (a feat that the united btates benate tailed to accomplish) belongs to that paper more than to any other cause. r Nashville is rejoiced that the wicked old Military Governor is defeated, but Tennessee is not. If the election had been by the people he would have cone to the benate by a large major ity. I know of, one county, the Rep resentative of which voted against him, -where the people, who elected the Representative, are almost unani-mouslyifor-him. : I ' mention this as an instance comins under my own knowledge, and it is. likely that at least twenty counties were likewise misrepresented. . - Bui the bid man. though defeated, lacks considerable of being dead His friends say that he will be the next Governor, in spite of all ' his Nashville enemies can do. They say that he will go before the people, and at that tribunal he will triumph.-; n ! ' . Avery. LoulsTlllc, Owcnsboro, Henderson : r .and Paducau Railroad. !A; meeting of the friends of -this enterprise is to tako place at Hardins burg on the third ot JNovember. U all the works of internal " improve ment engaging the attention of - our citizens, and affecting the 'future growth and prosperity of Louisville there are lew, perhaps, ot more vita importance than the con templated rail read from "Louisville, Hardinsburg, Owensboro. Henderson and Morgan field to a point opposite Shawneetown His. This road will, wncn Duut, tra versa the very richest agricultura portion of Kentucky.' The aggregate assessment of property in the counties outside cf Jefferson through which is will pass is upward of thirty millions of dollars, while its Veal sclliog svalue can scarcely be les3 than three times that amount. It is perlectly plain then, that, if tho people aiODg its r.roDOsed route havo the will they are- abundantly able to build this road without assistance from any one. , but Louisville can - and will help them. By branching the road at or near Hardinsburg, this road can be made to intersect the Elizabethtowa and Padueah Road about threo miles beyond Hartford which will certainly be. done if Ohio County will do what it is abundantly able to do vote lour hundred thou sand dollars in bonds to the proposed road which will pass through the entire length ot tho countyand imme diatcly ! through Hartford. By the construction of this road, Louisville will permanently secure not only the entire trade ot the lirecn iliver coun try, but it will bo in a position to enter into active competition for a large and valuable trade in bouthern ljli nois. The Owcnsboro -and Russell ville Kailroad 13 now in course of construction, and' already lino of railway is projected from a roint ODCOsite Owcnsboro. to connect with the Ohio & Mississippi Railroad to Cincinnati and St. Louis, which, unless checkmated by the road from Louisville to Owensboro, might become a serious disadvantage to , us. It i3 to be honed" that' our city and Jefferson County will be fully repre--i ... .ii i i. i sentea ai trie naruinscurgu meeucg, and that the people, along, the line of the -proposed road will be fully aroused to the importance of the -enterprise. Courier-Journal. The Nashville Republican Banner, which has done more than any other paper to bring about' Mr. Joiinsonts defeat, says of Judge CoorER: , j We recognize in his election, as we should also have done in the election of any one of the gentlemen who gave way in order that his name might be brought saley before the joint, Con vention, the triumph of a truly conservative, pacific, national and' progressive , publio . sentiment. He is justly regarded one of - the rising statesmen of lennessoe, universally esteemed for his spodess character, his eminent abilities aud his genuine conservatism. In politics he was a consistent Whig, a staunch Unionist duriog the war, and since ; as thoroughly a Conservative. Tho selection ot such a representative man at the present juacture of affairs, State and National, we consider the best'eard Tennessee has played since the restoration; and tho present General Assembly could not have signalized the peaceful era in which they are assembled as the people's chosen conservators, more eloquently to tho nation and the orld, than by the verdict of their ballot yesterday. In congratulating our honored and deserving fellow-citizen upon the result we congratulate the people of the w'hole otato, also without regard to political opinion or differences, upon so salutary and satisfactory a compromise of our Senatorial contest. ' Somebody is of the opinion that both Bonner and Dexter are humbugs. An exchange says; "The friends of jjaay xnorn aoubt the various rumors of great trotting feats done by Dexter in private, say that tho Lady is ready to meet Dexter in public, either for money or charity, and that until the challenge is accepted she must be considered the fastest horse." Intelligent men recognize the fact that Dexter is a gigantic anl profitable advertising "dodge," and that his private trots and Mr. Bonner's letters are but details of tho scheme. If tewspapers consulted their own interests a little more sharply, Mr. Bonner would not succeed so well in his efforts to obtain gratuitous advertising.

The Great Gale la the East. A correspondent of the Boston Journal, at Calais, Maine, sends somo interesting additional facts concerning the destruction caused by the great storm of October 8th, in that

section: Out of 108 vessels, out cn the coast between Calais and Campobello, a dis tance of twenty-five miles, only eighteen were uninjured, and a large portion of those disabled were badly niured. Eieaty barn3 and twenty houses were destroyed within Tour miles distance of St. Stephens, opposite Calais. Only one wharf remains at Eastport. At Lubec. opposite .Lastport, lour churches were badly wrecked, and an immense amount of other property destroyed. Ihe wild timber lands in Dennysville and vicinity suffered extensively. The loss to land owners is estimated at $4 0,000, of which amount Messrs. T. W. Allen & Son lose about half, or nearly $40,000. There were hun dreds ot acres so demolished that not one tree in ten stands, and still other hundreds of the best pine timber in the country, if not in the State, which retains not one tree in a hundred standing. The Lineolns, of Dennysville, are also heavy losers, ihe Lineoins and : Allen3 have timber enough down to last all their sawmills at least twelve year3. ' But, after three years, the timber will begin to injure it not hauled or sawed. . . Polsonlns Cows aad Other Etock The Meanest Act of tke Season. All communities have some few mean men and women among their population; but we doubt if any community in the State can produce an act of meanness to equal oae that has just occurred, in New Albany. For some time complaints have been made that certain unknown parties were engaged in poisoning dumb animals in the lower part of the city. All efforts to discover these parties have so far proved unsuccessful. Not long ago a valuable jack, belonging to John - Perry, was poisoned, and on Thursday or lrid&y; pounded glass was-administered to a hne cow, be longing to Mrs. .Lee, who resides on Lower Ninth btieet, from the effects of which she died. W e trust the polioe will do all in their power to discover and bring to speedy punishment the perpetrator or perpetrators of these inhuman and savage acts. A person who would commit such a crime would not hesi tatc to murder or commit arson, and is not asafe person to be at large in anv community.' We trust the police will exercise such diligence in "working up" these outrages as will result in the discovery and arrest of the scoundrels engaged in them. iVeic Albany Commercial. - -Til ,.
