them to send us our hardly earned dues —that
we feel-unable to furnish them longer with otir
paper, and shall therefore, after they have had
time to see this notice, strike their names from

PR.ESIDE.\"1‘lAL ELECTION.
Our tables this week have been corrected by
such fnrtlier returns as have reached us,'a good
proportion of which are official. There appears
to be liitleor no doubt remaining how the electo-
ral votes of the several states will be cast, ex-
cept in the case of Illinois. Ifthe extract giv-
en below from the St. Louis Republican. is
worth anything, there is then some uncertainty
which way the state will go. The popular ma-
jority for Harrison, we think. will not vary
much from 150,000.

'Ii.i.t.\‘ois.—'I‘he St. Louis Republican con-
tains returns from all the coutitiesin Illinois ex-
cept Hardin. The majority for Harrison is 57-1.
The voting is so closethat the final result wilt
be determined only by the correctness ofthe re-
turns.
C0.\'Nl-‘.C'l‘lCUT OFFICIAL Rmnn:-'s.—\Ve
deem it unnecessary to publish the official re-
turns oftlie late election in Connecticut. as they
differ but about 30 votes from our own returns
before publi.-zlied.
1)]-ZATII BY Suicini:.—\Ve learn from the N.
York papers that \Vall street was thrown into
quite a sensation.on the morning oftlie 27th nlt.
from a report that Nathaniel Prime, Esq. had
committed suicide at his residence near Hurl
Gate. Mr. Prime retired from the house of
Prime, VVard & King, a few years since, with a
large fortune. He has since resided at his fine
mansion in the city of New York and at his
country seat at Hurl Gate. Possessed ofa splen-
did fortune, with a family numerous and among
the first citizens, at. the advanced age of aboul
74, and with all the comforts of life around him-
beloved by his family and respected by the pub-
1ic—tl:ere can be no accounting for the act but
by a temporary aberration of mind. Mr.Prime
moved from Massachusetts and took up his resi-
dence in the city ofN. York many years ago, in
humble circumstances, and witlioiii friends. but
his industry and economy acquired for him a
great property, and a name throughout the world.
