THE E

LKCTION on Tuesday lasl passed off very

coolly and cjui*?Iy, and but little excitement was manifested, Tliere was nearly eleven hundred votes polled in this (Harrison) township, being an hundred more than ever before polled here, although we believe the full strength of neither party waa elicited, as the resultofthe f»r»t Tuesday in November next will prove. The usual ouibursis of feeling repulsing iu broken h^ads, and bloody noses -so common on "election day" was not visiI. 1B. This w« attribute to the increasing intelligence of ihe people, and the exceeding cold and chilly state of the weather upon that day.

The following Individ aals It appears are elected to the various county offices, Lvrus A. WILLIAM OOOOMA*, and IIARVIT D. SCOTT, the whig Nowtuecs, are elected Representatives.

A MOST K«.*'Nj.y, (loii. whig) is elected Juilge of the Court of Common pteas, and SALMON WRJOHT, (whig.) Prosecutor of eald Court, the latter without opposition.

The Congressional Klection.

We have as yet received but little data by which we can form much idea of the Congressional raco in this district. Sufficient, however, has been received to justify

Jho

buliel thai that tried

and fttithful public servant, Hon. JOBK G. DAVIS ix re-elected by Nomething over 500 majority. His election, we may say. is pretty generally concedt-d upon all hands. In this county Mr. Barbour's majority is much lets than anticipated, and incomplete returns from various other points in ihe district report Mr Davi* a* running ahead of the Democratic ticket. VV'e will be enabled to lay ihe oflicial result before our readers in our next issue.

Glorioua News—Democracy Triumphant!! A Telegraphic dispatch has reached ibis place announcing that the returns from various poinls throughout the State indicate the election of Joe VVright and the entire Democratic ticket by a vote offrom ten to fijhen 'housand. Impartial returns also indicate the election of Hendricks to Congress from lite Indianapolis district. Lane from the Lawrenceburgh district. Davis from this distiict and tho success of nearly all the Democratic candidates for Congress* A dcfpalch, states that Wright has received a majority of 500 in Floyd co a county which heretofore has been but slightly Democratic. A dispatch also from Wayne, tho Gibralter of ludiana biggerv My* that there will be a reduc* lion of ihe Whig majority to 300 or less. It is generally conceded that the entire State ticket will be »uccessful by an increased majority. Such being the case, there will be hardly an effort made lo redeem her by the Whigs, in the ensuing Presidential coolest.

Death of Senator YVhitcomb.

We annouueed last week with feelings of painfull emotion the dcaih of this distinguished Slatesman. He died on the 5th inst at New York citj sAer a protracted and painful illnens. lu thi* sad event has Indiana lost one of her most gifted sons. or th^ past ten years Gov. Whitcomb bus acted a conspiouous part iu the political arena of Indiana, and has probably onntributed more towards re* deeming her from her former ihralk'om of whigUery than any other man in the state,. In 1843 he was elected Go vert »«r of Indiana by a majority of

than two thousand* over SAMUEL 8teas&, and was re-ebctod in 1346 by an increased majority over Jo*. G. MA*SHAU». »elected to the Senate of the United States, the moM dignified and respectable body of men iu the we rid, in which foeitien. although hia usefulness has been matertally impaired by oooiinued ill-health, he haa uniformly, acquitted himself with marked honor *cd distinotioQ. Gov. Whitcomb waa about fifty six ye ARC of

appropriate sermon was delivered by Wilson. A large the solemn and imposing ceremonies.

Judge of the 6tfcJo£icia! Circait. Judge EckeU received a majority ol eeventy-one votes in this county. Whatever other counties may have done. Vigo has done her duty, her whole duty, and nothing but ber duty.' It was due lo Judge Eckels, that the high regard entertained for him as a Judge, should have expression at the ballot boxes. Nobly have the people of Vigo born themselves io thi® contest nobly have the Democracy of ihi» county maintained theieindent faith honor to the true beatted Democracy of rtie county! jhey bave rebuked the factiooista, and taught them ihelr weakness end imbecility when they attempt to strike down an honored public servant for having dischaiged his duty. Honor to those indepeudent Whigs, who could not be transferred by a corrupt coalition who. looking alone to the merits of the case, united with the Democracy in vindicating the capacity of the PEOPLE to select Judges, as well as all other officers. This election has taught a useful lesson, and we hope all may profit by it.

The death of Gov. WBITCOMB will make it incumbent upon the next Legislature to elect a United States Senator to fill his unexpired term. The Democracy of Indiana have-a host of men who would do credit lo themselves and the Stale in that capacity, J.NO. W. DAVIS. R. DALE OWES. JOBS PJCTTIT. ACSXI.'* M. PCETT. Jons L.ROBI.NSOS, «5tc. In the meantime it will devolve up«n Gov. Wright to appoint one until the Legislature convenes and fill* the vacancy*

03rGen. Scoit is still stumping it through the country and is making especial endeavors to reconcile himself with the foreign population", that pepulalicn against which he attempted wiih so much hitternesk to array the native citizen* in '44. The papers everywhere speaking of his electionnering demonstrations pronounce them as indignifidd and disreputable in the la*t degree. The Louisville Democrat sa\s they are remarkable for nothing but the contemptible twaddle of the demagogue, nnd can excite no other feeling than derision at his awkward and silly efforts to get votes from all classes of people. He «eems to hitve set out wiih the idea iut the amplest condescension fr so augu. per konage as himself, towards the masses of the people, would be considered so inappreciable a favor. Miat they could not do otherwise than bestow ihtii voles on him. Hence, at Cleveland he appeals to his "native and adopted fellow-citizens." including in the latter class the Irish only. At Columbus his liberality is somewhat enlarged, and he admits the naturalized Germans. aNo. to fellow-citi-zenship. At another place he xtetvds hi gracious acknowledgment to all these, and all wh« intend to become citizens. But New Albany his patriotic benevolence becomes boundless, and he concludes that everybody, of whatever political faiih, may claim the honor of being his fellow-citizen and be graciously permitted to vote lor him. Hear Itiin. "In this demonstration. I recognize ihe greeting of my fellow-countrymen—for all are my countrymen aliko, whether native or foreign born, and in such a moment as tho present, I make no distinction bctweon Whig and Democrat and if there be a third parly, I make no exception in respect to that. I am your countryman a'nd you are my country men."

Now, we ask in all candor, is a man who descends so low as to travel-through the country playing the demagogue after so silly a fashion, fit to be honored with the exalted and responsible station of President?

DEATH OF BE» HARDIN.—This widely known Kentuckian died on the 24 ult. at his residence in Bardstown. He had been sulF-'rin# from a painful illness for some weeks, and a fatal termination has not, therefore, been wholly unexpected. Mr. H. has occupied several prominent official positions in Kentucky.

Suicide.

A Young man named Fasset recently from Ohio. Ctmmiled suicide on Tuesday evening last by throwing himself into th« machinery of Mess's Miller and Soule's Mill.

One ofScotrs Stump Speeches.

We clip from Ihe Cincinnati Times, a neutral paper tho following burst ol' superhuman eloquence from the itinerant Whig candidate for th** Presidency whioh fully and clearly ealablishes his claims as a chaste and beautiful oratoi The speech was delivered at Carrollton, Ky., upon the occasion of hia visit there.

They therefore advise consumers to purchHse^puringly utpresoni, inasmuch as the dealers mus/sell. and the price is likely to be lower.

,:v. The Fay per Dieak

If appears that Gen. Scott, now on ou his electione«r/ng tour throughout the West receives the comfortable allowance of eighteen dollars per diem. Thus is the publio treasury called upon to pay the expenses of the travelling candidate for the Presidency, the man who is exhibiting himself as the Greif Mogul of Whiggery, boasting of his great servfLes. and all the paina and sorrows he has endured in bis long career, thus irying to awaken the Sympathies of the people in bis behalf, .ifOUSB them to exertion in his cause.

PIGHTEEN DOLLARS A DAT! to be paid oufof the publio treasury to Gen. Scott in order thjt. by his eleclion to the Presidency, the unscru* p^ous men of the whig party may be restored to piwer. to inaugurate, in all probability, another eja of Galphins and Gsrdiners.

EIGHTEEN DOLLARS A DAT! to be paid sut of the public treasury as the expense of the Seward nominee, who travels though the country ask* je.g votes like a candidate tor Sheriff ot a count v. and who makes speeches to any crowd he meets, like ait itinerant lecturer.

KIGHTEEiN DOLL VRS AD A VI to be paid out of the public treasury to a candidate for President, that he may the more effectually arouse the abolition elements of the North against the South,

EIGHTEEN DOLLARS A DAY! to be paid out of the public treasury to a candidate for President, in his efforts to convince the adopted citizens that he is not a nativist any longer, notwithstanding the natives decidely advocated his election.

EIGHTEEN DOLLARS A DAY! to be paid out of the public treasury to a candidate for President tor making speeches in hotels, denouncing the sccusation of a political opponent as "a lie—a lie—a false and groundless lie."

We should like to hear of the Democratic candi late for President who has ever attempted any -ojch performance as this Nay. we should like to lie pointed to the Whig who ha« ever hazarded hi« reputation by attempting candidacy for the Presidency uuder such circumstance. There is an nbscence of all dignity, of all propriety, of good taste, or ordinajv re.pect for the feelings of the people in the wboie affair, well calculated to arouse the indignation of the masses, ami to cause every »v er of his country to blush al the spectacle it preents.

Geti Scott is resolved lo be an exception to every other candidate for the IVesidency who has proceeded him: aihl to stand alone as the only man who ever lived in this country, that accepted a nomination HI the he»»d of the army, that threw himself into the hands of the foes ol one half of the Slates, and that paid himsr-lf out of the national treasury lor the most publie and humiliating electiotieeiing.

General Wa*hington resigned his position as Commander-in-chief ot the army before he accepted the Presidency, and another soldier was appointed to the place lie had tilled.

General Jackson was not si the head of the army when he was elected. General irrison had long resigned his position in the army before he was elected to the Presidou-

Henry Clay even resigned his place in the Senate of the United States, when in 1844, ho became the whig condidate for President.

General Cass resigned his place in the Senate of the United States as soon as he was nominated for the Presidency by the democratic party.

In violent and repulsive contrast to all these examples, Gen. Scoit holds on to his commission as. the Commander-in-chief of the American army, uses its patronage as it may be used, travels about he country in the hands of abolition agitators an I partizang slanderers, and pays himself out of the treasuv at the rate of eighteen dollars a day.— Shades of Washington. Abatns. JelFerson, Madiaon, Monroe. Jackson. Harrison and Polk, what a comment is this upon tho examples you presented lo the country.— Washington Union.

CJeu. Scott's Speeches.

Gen. Scott it seems, meets with no better success at speech making than ho did at letter writing.— The N Y. Herald snys:

We have counted the number of tinvs that the personal pronoun *1* is used in the speech at Cleveland aud we find that in thirty lines of which it i* composed, the pronoun has been used twentyfour times. Some of his speches are not reported iu the first person, and some not reported at all. hut calculated on the ba«isof the Cleveland speech, the result would, stand as follows

Cleveland speech, 24 Pittsburgh speech. *1' 96 Columbus three speeches, *1' -240 Mnysville three speeches. *1' 120 Speeches at L»wistown, CnilHcothe, Circleville. Manchester, iScs.,*(' 25

Total 730 Thus, in the speeches already fired off in this campaign of oratory. General Scott has employ&d Ihe persona! pronoun about 730 times which is admitted on all hands to be indicative of a vast amount of egotism. 'Fellow citizens' and 'gentlemen.' occur with marvellous frequency and the violations of grammar are neither few nor fir between.

CtriA ASTP THS SASDWICH ISLANDS—The id vices from Cuba are of serious import. They show thai the population, both the slave population, and me creole population, is in a feverish condition, nnd that a servile or civil war—or both—might al any iimiii"tit hre.k out. The Cuban authorities have very looli»hly aud presumptuously, brought their port teguUtiuns into conflct with the commer vial and navigatory interests of the United States. Tnese regulations create personal irritation, and also may pinch hard upon our commercial interests. These are Ihe point*, where, as it sup posed long ago. a collision might ultimately be nrought about between theSpauish authorities aud ttie United Sta'es.

Many of the Wnig journals are wasung much of their time in inventing pretended extracts from British paper* in favor of Gen. Pisses. Tost the British masses, who are sighing for freedom and the enjoyment of equal rights, look with favor upon the success of the Democratic cause in this country, there can be 00 doubt. The battles of the Democracy in the United Stales, are the bstUee for freedom throughout the world.—Buffalo Courfur.

Turn out and hear them. ig fc. ,1 We published last week the marriage of Bro.L SOLON TPRMAN of the Covingtcn Friend. In hil last paper, Solon denies ihe soft impeachment, and says he has not the good fortune to be married yet. We certainly will not attempt to contradict him as he ought to know.

&ACXIXQ Oar.—Some one of the letter-writers from Washington rsised the Whig thermometer very considerable about a week since, by stating that *the result of the election was now so nearly balanced that no bets conld be obtained oh the general result: The Baltimore Argus however, contains a card in which it is announced that 810 ),000 will be bet at any time by Mr. Edmund Pendleton and others, and 25per cent, paid to any person who may take the vvholo or any smaller amount.
