The Election in this State took place on Tues-

express. A letter from the State Central Com.
mittee, to the Editors of the-N.Y.Express, dated
Columbus, Oct. 15th. says:

“ Our State Elections took place on the
13th instant. Mr. Corwin is elected Gover-
nor of this State, probably by a rnajority of
18 to 20,000.

“ The Harrison and Tyler Electoral Tick-

State of 25,000.”

On Monday evening a female walked 05‘ Kim
abutment ofthe Bridge. and as it was flood title,
fell into the water. a distance of aboul 25 feel-
Sbe was soon taken from the water with slight or
no injury, as wejudged frotn a little manifestation
ofthe true Hibernian spirit when she got upon
terra firma. Had it been low water, her brains
would probably have been dashed out on a bed
of rocks. The Bridge raving been taken up.
and no proper barriers erected or lights hung out.
the gentlemen having charge of the repairs, are
we are sorry to say, to blame. 'l‘his occur-
rence, with the excited feeling it has occasioned.
will, we trust, lead to some measures for individ-
ual security.

SOMETHING NEW !—0fall the new inventions
that have been coupled with the natne of Old
Tip, (and they have not been few) we have
seen nothing so much to our republican taste, as
sundry pieces of Harrison Gray Cassimcre. a
bran new , article.just received by L. Clark &'.
Co. In these piping times when the name of
Harrison is associated with every thing we meet,
(except Van Bttrenism, or some other similarly
exploded humbug,) we intend to testify our re-
gard for the old hero, by encasing our nether
extremities in a pair of Harrison Pantaloons,
worthy of the name for their economy, simpli-
city, and unostentatious beauty, and their real
intrinsic wortb—only to be tried to be appreci-
ated. Let every good Whig put in for a pair at
once that they may be in readiness for the first
Monday of November!

 

 

A GREAT Y1ELn.—Mr. Noah S. Barnum of
this town has left at our office, five Rohan po-
tatoes of his own raising. selected from a lot of
three and a half bushels. weighing 205 pounds
and 11 ounces, the production of one potatoe.
This potatoe had 41 chits or eyes. 2 only of
which failed. The largest ofthe 5 left with us,
weighs within half an ounce of 3 pounds.

 

The Cincinnati Gazette states that at the

meetingheld at the Court-house in that city,
Mr. Duncan, the member of Congress, address-
ing the unnaturalized foreigners, urged them
to go to the polls, with the constitution in their
hands, demand the right to vote, and to vote,
even if the vote is only to be got by wading to
their knees in blood. The constitution express-
ly prohibits all aliens from voting. Several
afiidavits are published, substantiating this
statement. ~

 

The New York Times says the followingstates
‘are certain for Van Buren.'viz: States of Ap-
prehension, States ofPerturbation, State ofEx-
pulsion and State of Disgrace. The States of
New Hampshire and the State of South Carolina

The Whigs of New Haven and Middlesex
Counties have nominated the HON. WILLIAM
Boannztutv. of NewHaven.as their candidate to
to supply the vacancy in Congress, occasioned
by the resignation of Mr. Storrs. Election

The Senate is Whig.

T CoNsrs'rr:Ncv.—-\Vhile the Locos deny that
the \Vhigs have achieved any victories. and
even pretend to rlnster over their own success.
the true state ofthings comes out wbenthey ad-
dress one another, and endeavor to good up
the backward and mutiuous. Here is a precious
morc'el from the New York Standard, which is
a lively picture of the prosperity ofthe cause in
their estimation among the soutbrons. If it is
indicitive of confidence, it is at least a novel
way of letting it appear.

“Our Democracy has nobly sustained the
South in its most vital interests, and now a
pit is dog for us by Southern men, ‘suborning
traitors at the North for our overthrow——for
the destruction of the ascendancy of Demo-
cratic principle. Is the South ready to add
its sanctions to this double treachery-this
infernal compact for taking off "at one fell
swoop” the firm supporters of her constitu-
tional rigltts and of true Democracy? Are
we to be left to our State rights and State
pride to save us from the enduring curse of
Whig principles? If so, it isiwcll, we are
soon to know it. We can, and by the grace
of God, and our right arms, we will, take
care of ourlsovere-ignty; and let those who
despise. honor and Democratic nerve, leave
us to take care of ourselves, and take care
of l/lC‘))lS6...?J€S if they /will and can. They,
hereafter,:who look for Northern men with
Southern feelings, must show us Southern
principle accompanying Southern rights, or
they may carry majorities in Congress them-
selves. He who is once a traitor, Will be so
again as often as opportunity tempts; and if
Sbuthern chivalry and honor will rely on
Northern l/Vhig knavtrry, why, God bless
the South, the North can, and will, take care
ofits Democracy; and the Democracy will
take especial care of the Federal VVhtgS.
that their ruinous principles shall have but
little scope.
