" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagno s i s o f the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stripture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

UNITED KINGDOM ELBOTRIC TELE GRAPH COMPANY. The opening operations of this company, the ob ject of which is to reduce telegraphing throughout the kingdom to as~iillingrate, and to carry the principle out through the agency of the canals running through the country, commenced yester day morning by the planting of the first poles in connection with the telegraphic wires in the neighbourhood of Shepherd's-bush, on the Uxbridge road. The poles were planted respectively by Lord Alfred Churchill, E. W. Chenley, Esq., and Col. Elsey, and after the ceremonial the directors and their friends dined together at St. James's-hall, Regent-street, to celebrate the commencement of the works. It appeared that the system of a uniform shilling rate of telegraphy was origin a lly ssgges t e d b y M r. William Adrews, then in the employment of the Submarine Telegraph Company, and was carried out by him between London and Dublin. Mr. Allen, proprietor of the Caledonian Mercury, had obtained a bill for the construction of the underground wires, and Mr. J. Robinson, C.E., had a concess;on from all the canal compa n i es in he kingdom for the use of the banks. The result was that a company was formed to carry out the uniform shilling telegraphic system through the instrumentality of Mr. Alex ander Crossley, one of the late Under-sheriffs of the city of London. Admiral Sir H. Leeke, the chairman of the com pany, presided at the dinner. He was supported by Lord A. Churchill, Colonel Elsey, A. A. Croll, Esq. ; F. Doulton, Esq.; the Rev. Walter Mitchell, Dr. Mackay,,G. A. Sala,'Esq. ; J. Robinson, Esq., C.E.; Wm. Andrews, Esq.; Alexander Crossley, Esq. ; Admiral Fitzroy, Henry Pownall, Esq. ; R. Smith, F.R.S., of Manchester; — Chater, Esq., &c. Upwards of 50 g en tl emen sat down to dinner. The cloth having been removed, and the usual loyal toasts having been proposed and duly honoured, The toast of " The Army and Navy" was re sponded to by Col. ELSEY and Admiral FITZROY. Mr. POWNALL, in proposing the toast of the evening, namely, " Prosperity to the United Kingdom Electric Telegraph Company," observed, in allusion to some remarks by Admiral Fitzroy, that he had been so unnerved by the startling statements he had heard with respect to iron coated vessels, terrible arms and projectiles, which were to supersede or destroy the vaunted wooden walls of old England, that he was hardly in a frame of mind to treat of matters relating to the peaceful affairs of life. (Hear, hear.) But he must endeavour to compose himself in order to consider a matter which had nothing to do with the destroying of 100 men where formerly only a dozen were wounded, but was designed to promote civilisation and humanity throughout the world, and which could only be said to interest the army, the navy, or even the volunteers in so far as it would afford them the means of communicating with those who were dear to their affections, or with whom:theyhad business to transact. (Cheers.) The original plan of the company was to apply to telegraphy the principle which was sanctioned by Government when it applied it to the postage of the country with the most gratifying results. As the uniform postage had made letter writers of the million hitherto unaccustomed to correspondence, so he trusted that the uniform is rate of telegraphy would introduce the habit of corresponding by telegraph amongst all classes of the people. He only feared that it might excite the jealousy of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who would say, " But your net will not only catch all the large birds— the shilling messages—but you will rob me of my penny letters." (A laugh.) In conclusion, he begged to propose " Prosperity to the United Electric Telegraph Company." The toast was drunk with enthusiasm. The CHAIRMAN, in returning thanks, remarked that Mr. Pownall had taken a toast that belonged to him, but he did not regret the change, as much more had been said in favour of the company than he (the chairman) would have ventured upon. He congratulated . the company on their prosperous po sition' and he gave full cr e dit t o M essrs . R o bi nson and Andrews for their respective ideas upon which the company was founded. The gallant chairman having recounted some instances of the hardships of dear telegraphy, concluded by expressing his sanguine hope that the present undertaking would be a complete success. Mr. DANIELL then gave " The Canal Interests of the United Kingdom," to which Mr. R. Smith, of Manchester, responded. Sir S. DONALDSON then gave " The Health of the Chairman and Directors," to which Sir Henry Leeke responded. Mr. Douli on then gave " The Press," to which Dr. Mackay responded in an effective speech. Lord A. Churchill gave " The Officers of the Company," which Mr. Robinson, C.E., acknow ledged. Admiral Fitzroy then proposed " Mr. Allen's Health," as the promoter of the company, which that gentleman responded to; and thus ended the proceedings of the evening. The dinner was of a superior character, and the manner in which it was served up reflected the greatest credit upon Mr. Donald, the proprietor of the establishment. BANKERS' CHEQUES AND DRAFTS. A correspondent writing to a contemporary, says :—" Much inconvenience having been lately experienced in the commercial world in conse quence of a new regulation having been made (by whom lam at a loss to know) respecting bankers' cheques, I shall feel obliged by your allowing me to call your attention to the same. It appears that now all cheques which are made payable to order' must be endorsed by the payee himself, and cannot, under any circumstances, be endorsed by procuration. Now, I wish to point out to you the very serious inconvenience which arises from this apparently uncalled-for change. Supposing any person to whom cheques are made payable to order' to be abroad, or at any distant spot, and where he cannot be easily communicated with ; his return must be waited for before such cheques can be cashed, because no other person than himself can endorse them, thus causing a great risk. This new regulation appears to me to be the more ex traordinary, as it does not apply to the signing or endorsing bills of exchange or signing cheques— all of which can be done by procuration ; and why, let me ask, cannot the same rule apply to ordinary cheqUes ? There is also another plan respecting cheques which I would recommend as a safeguard to all persons engaged in business, which is, that in addition to crossing them with the name of their banker they should mention their own as well across the cheques ; thus, supposing a cheque to be drawn in favour of James Smith. and his bankers to be Barnett and Co.—across the cheque should be written, ' Mr. James Smith's account at Messrs. Barnett and Co.'s." On the same subject the writer of the Times' City Article makes the following observations:— The question raised some time back as to the re sponsibility of bankers in paying checks drawn to order, on the signature of a person pretending to hold a procuration is likely to remain without a definitive settlement. The facts which induced pub lic attention to the matter were as follow :—An action .was brought against the Bank of England to recover the amount of a check drawn payable to order, and endorsed by a person purporting to sign by procuration from the payee, but which procura tion was denied. The claim was based upon the view that the 19th section of the Act 16th and 17th Victoria, c. 59, which protects bankers from respon sibility in paying checks purporting to be endorsed by the payee, did not extend to checks purporting to be endorsed by anotherperson by procuration. The action came on for trial at the London sittings in July last, when Mr. Baron Martin held, without argument, that the enactment referred to extended as well to cases of endorsement by procuration as to those purporti ng t o b e b y the payee in person, the object of this proceeding being to obtain a deci sion of the full Court upon the question of law in the current term. It appears, however, that the plaintiff has decided not to carry the case further, and that the law must therefore remain in its pre sent unsatisfactory state. At the same time it may be remarked, that few persons can doubt that the immunity to the bankers conferred by the Act was intended, to be complete. The clause which, in con tradiction to the entire spirit of the statute law of the kingdom, exempts bankers from a liability to which all the rest of the community are bound to conform, furnishes the worst example of p e tt y c l ass legislation witnessed in recent times, but so lon g as it is permitted to remain it will be advisabl e f or t h e public to regard it in all its stringency. THE VACANT ALDERMANIC GOWN.—The place of nomination of the several candidates to represent the Ward of Walbrook in the Court of Aldermen has been changed from the Bay Tree Tavern, St. Swithin's-lane, to the School room, Oxford-Court, Cannon-street. The election will take place, as already stated, on Thursday next, at two o'clock, ad the polling cm the followiag day, On Saturday evening Sir John Trelawny, one of the members for Tavistock, addressed his consti tuents at the Bedford Hotel. Mr. THOMAS Nictiou.s was called upon to presiae. Sir JOHN TRELAWNY, on coining forward, was received with loud cheering. He spoke at consider. able length, and we has e only space for an abstract of his address. He said : It has been oaen remarked that the House of Commons does nothing but talk, and very little in the way of substantial improve ment. I think this is not quite reasonable, as after all you must not say that because there has been little legislation there has been no success. Parlia ment is a sort of mill of ideas, in which there is found chaff as well as grain ; and perhaps after all it would be wrong if you said no speeches are useful but those which are rhetorical and amusing ; it would be a mis fortune to lose speeches in a short compass containing good counsel, calculated to carry weight when brought,to bear upon public opinion. I see sometimes carpish criticisms in public papers on such speeches ; but really unless Parliamentwere to pay attention to some of the hints given in matters of detail in short speeches before measures were carried through Parliament, we should have very bad legislation. After all you ought not to feel dis heartened that in the late session so much was not done as you were perhaps sanguine enough to ex pect. I observe in looking at the list of the statutes that there were no less than 154 public general acts passed during the late session of Par liament. I know some of them were measeras of detail and routine, and could hardly pretend to be deemed measures of great importance or originality. Still there were a considerable number of measures which you would have been very sorry to miss, and the country would have been injured if these acts had not been passed. Among these acts are the acts relating to tbe budget. It was considered that the budget introduced by the Chancellor of the Exchequer was a very important one ; there were circumstances connected with it which were cer tainly very much to be regretted, and disputes arose between the two Houses of Parliament with regard to the repeal of the paper duty. The French treaty, for instance, some persons think, was a compromise of the doctrines of free trade, though I must confess that it did not strike me in such a point of view. I think you will bear me out that on my former visit I said it would be well for the two countries—France and England—if some step' were taken to increase the trade between them, and thus prevent the wars which we so much deplore, and I then mentioned the article of wine. It did so happen that we had, shortly after this, an intimation that there would be an alteration of the wine duties. I was one of those who sup ported her Majesty's Ministers not only with re gard to the wine duties, but throughout the budget, not taking exception to mere details, in which there might have been small errors, but taking the scheme as a whole, and the result is that neither I nor those of my constituents with whom I have been in communication have had occasion to regret the course so pursued. (Cheers.) With regard to the census, you will recollect there was a great deal of excitement, and I was one of those who did not agree to the clause calling on per sons to state their religious creed. (Hear.) It seemed to me to be contrary to the genius of the British nation that people should be called upon at the point of the bayonet to state what form of reli gion they held. (Cheers.) There was another act —the Annuity Tax—the principle involved in which is very much the same as in the case of the church rate. I very much doubt whether the act passed to settle the annuity tax difficulty will be a success. My opinion is that fixing the rate as a police rate in Edinburgh will not be satisfactory. There will be just as much objection to the annuity tax as before, because the principle objected to will not be touched; already the banner of opposi tion has been raised, and I am afraid that law will not be a success. With regard to the failures—we had among these the ballot, the repeal of the paper duties, and the church rates. Now, with regard to the former, I voted for the ballot as usual. (Cheers.) I voted also for the application of the ballot speci ally to the two boroughs—Wakefield and Glou• cester ; that was on the motion of Mr. Duncombe, so that I had two opportunities of voting for secret suffrage. (Cheers.) With regard to the pap er duties, it is rea lly a ver y serious question, and one which produced a great deal of discussion, and will do so again. It is a most grave and important matter, and it seems to me it was passed over toe lightly. We are at present paying about £4,000 daily in taxes by the authority of the House of Lords. The. House of Lords thought fit to reject a material part of a budget passed by the House of Commons, which, I believe, had not been done for 400 years before, except in matters of trifling im portance, and this will certainly produce a great deal of ill feeling, which I am afraid will last for a long time to come. It produced its points in the last session of Parliament, because, towards the end of it, several measures came down which were not passed in consequence of the feelings engen dered between the two houses. The House of Lords has assumed the office of the Chancellor of the Exchequer ; the office of dealing with finance no longer pertains exclusively to the people's house, and Mr. Gladstone ceased to be Chancellor of the Exchequer, the House of Lords usurping the funo tions which belonged to him. Now that is indeed to oppose the British constitution. If that course be tolerated, if we do not next year retrace that step and get that precedent obliterated, the British con stitution is at an end, as there is no saying to what length such precedent may be carried in the future. (Hear, hear.) I would advert shortly to the subject of church rates. (Cheers.) This subject, I may say, is one upon which I most honestly and sincerely endeavoured to bring the litigation parties together. I endeavour to deal with the subject in all points of view, so as to see whether a measure way be passed such as would obtain the assent of all classes. After a deal of conversation with different parties, the idea was found to be totally impracticable, and it seems to be hopeless to think of carrying any other measure but that I presented. We carried the measure through the House of Commons, but were defeated in the House of Lords. You recollect how many times tkis has passed through the House of Commons, and how very decided the opinion of the public has been that church rates should be abolished. Then I must notice the inconsistency of those who take an opposite line to me. What do they do ? They put up an Irishman —Mr. White side—to oppose me upon church rates, on the alle gation that they are a fixed part of the inheritance of the church, as sacred as tithes, and on no account to be touched ; and then they themselves propose a bill to exempt Dissenters from payment of church rates. If the law were that of the Medes and Persians ; if it be true that every man is bound to pay a church rate, why bring in an act of Pallia meet to exempt any portion of the population from obeying such law ? That is what the Derbyite Government did; but that is not all. My Lord Derby was at the head of the Government which abolished the whole church rate in Ireland in the name of vestry cess, confiscated the incomes of ten bishoprics, and altered the , tithe system by giving up to the Irish landlords one-fourth of the tithes. Take, I say, one ground or the other, but not grounds manifestly inconsistent. If church rates are an inheritance of the church why exempt any one ? If not an inheritance, why maintain them ? I sayithe position of Lord Derby's party is not tenable in argument; there is no argu ment in it. Then, again, how can you say that the church rate was a fixed portion of the inheritance of the church, and not to be touched on any account, when the House of Lords, as it did on appeal in the great Braintree case, solemnly affirmed that no person was bound to pay a particular church rate unless it was carried by a majority of the parishioners present at the time it was made ? If it was a law that could not be opposed, the obliga tion falls on every man equally, and yet the Lords say the majority may refuse to pay, and the tax would not be legal unless the majority enforced it. That then is the unsoundness of the position held by those who oppose me on this matter of church rates. I suppose we shall have to fight the good fight as before, and I suppose by degrees they will find out there is no way of dealing with the subject except that I have presented, and I dare say we shall succeed. But no doubt some bickerings will arise. It is said that Dr. Foster and the Liberation Society were the cause of my not getting a larger majority. A great deal has been said about thi s i n the House of Commons, and sometimes these gentle men have been abused for their exertions. I think they deserve a great deal of gratitude, for, after all, they have been candid and out-spoken men, and although, perhaps, they have not taken the most politic course, yet no one ought to censure them for straightforwardness. They openly stated that they desired ulterior measures, and they stated what they were. Well, I think that ought to receive some praise; in that they expressed exactly what their views were, and there was no deceit about them. You have heard that we have lately had in Parliament a discussion upon the salary of the Dean of York. A. 6 well as I cart recollect, he had about £l,OOO a year, and the Church Commissioners, seem ing to think his case was a very hard one, with only £l,OOO for doing very little, were so very kind as to give him out of the inheritance of the poor £l,OOO more. (Disapprobation.) He is now enjoying a good salary, and I dare say he would raise his voice for a state of things which had afforded him so liberal a share out of funds designed for the bene fit of the poor. (Cheers and laughter.) 1 his is an argument which is of a dangerous nature, because there is the case of ou r p oor c l ergy . I po i n t e d out some time ago that a million of money may be raised towards the increase of small livings. We find there are a number of stipends between £5O and £2OO a year, and these may be all increased to £2OO by a very simple plan ; and still it has not been done, and year after year attempts have been made to obtain such a measure, but in vain ; and I suppose the reason is that some money is wanted for Deans of York, and those in his position, who like him hold sinecure offices paid out of the inheri tance of the poor. (Hear, and laughter.) Perhaps I may refer to certain measures which have been postponed, and which cannot be said to have failed. Amongst these is the measure of reform, which has been rather an unfortunate one. In 1852 we were told another Reform Bill was to be introduced, and the working classes were to be regarded as being yameaorntghset bill lse was b wor r t o h u y gh of t forwdbeingarci,tibzeunts.re rejected with some degree of co n t um ely. And why did it fail ? I believe for thi s reason ; b ec ause it did not seem to offer anything which would go to the hearts of the people. The measure ought, 4n order to suc -need, to be one which ;would . embody a great prin ciple, and I have always contended in this room that household suffrage is the true solution of the difficulty. (Cheers.) I don't say I would extend the suffrage to every man, but you should adopt a principle which gives something to the working men that would induce them to rally round that bill. I don't think that bill contained anything that would be likely to raise the enthusiasm of working men. What the working man says is " that a man is a man;" and they think because that is so that he is deprived of something he ought to possess. I don't go so far as that, but I under stand their feelings about it. It is rather a matter of sentiment with them, and being such I say that if you are ever going to carry your bill you must lay hold of some broad principle, such as the principle that taxation and representa tion should go hand in hand. That doctrine comes right home to their hearts. Now, if yen wish to reconcile them to a modification of the franchise, you should show them that if heads of families are entitled to vote, you virtually carry out the doc trine alluded to. I don't think you would carry your bill so long as it is only a difference of £7 or £B. That would not excite their interest in it. Take the case of a man who has a house of £5 and another holding a£6 house. The working classes would not understand why they are excluded, but they they might be, satisfied with the representa tions by heads of families. It seems to me you would thus virtually introduce the principle of taxation and representation going hand in hand, if all those persons being beads of families were al lowed td vote in respect of their families and ap prentices. That is why I stand upon the household suffrage, and in doing so I have the authority of Charles James Fox and several members of the Whig party. There was another bill which I had something to do with, viz., County Rates. That is one which I hope to carry. During the recess I have read a large pile of blue-books about the county rate and expenditure. I hold in my hand a paper which shows the actual amount of county rates now to be £1,162,878 a year assessed upon an income of £66,364,439. Now, it may be said that that sum is not a very great one. The sum was not a very great one in the case of ship taoney, but though the sum was small, the principle was a very great one. So it is in the case of county rates. It ought to be recollected it is a great benefit in the constitution that every citizen should have func tions and learn to use them. It is very important he should cultivate the quality which enabled him to understand why he votes. In the case of county rates, they are imposed on the ratepayers by ma gistrates, who are responsible to none but them selves. In many cases they are clergymen who have not a stake in the hedge. If a clergy man has a large stake in the property, we can understand why he should have a voice among others in proposing these taxes. But many a clergyman voting county rates has just come into the county, and has no property in it whatever. It bears hard, too, in the case of tenants. A man may have taken a lease for 21 years, and he knows he has to pay so much for county rates, but by and bye the magistrates meet at Bodmin or Exeter, and then he has to pay a larger amount of rates than he expected. The rates bear hardly upon tenants, and although some of them are not imposed by magistrates but by Parliament, still the magis trates have a great deal of power in the case of a large part of the county rates ; and in respect to that power they are responsible to themselves alone, and I am afraid there is a great waste of money by them, so that the ratepayers suffer. I th;nk such a measure is desirable if it were only to limit the operation of the principle of centralisa tion. I propose to continue to advocate the passing of the County Rates and Expenditure Bill. The bill is as near as possible that of Mr. Milner Gib son's, and I intend, as at present advised, to do my best to support it. With regard to France I have very little which it is consolatory to offer you. How do we stand ? We are now spending thirty five millions a year for our army, navy, and ord nance. Within my time we were grumbling that we should be spending thirteen millions a year, with which the Duke of Wellington was satisfied. I don't know where it is to end. We have had £10,000,000 expended on the China war. Indeed, the amount voted thus far has been £9,168,240. The amount for fortifications is supposed to be eventually £12,000,000. The Indian debt is thought to have approached £100,000,000, and it is thought sooner or later the British public will be called to make itself responsible for it. (Hear.) The total Indian deficit for 1860 was £9,881,000, and the estimate for next year is £7,472,000. Soon it will come to be a question, what is the advantage of retaining our Indian dominions. Now, I see nothing in that which is consolatory. With regard to foreign politics, I think there is some reason to be satisfied. In the case of Italy we have seen wonderful results produced by Garibaldi—(cheers)—but let it not be considered that he did it all alone, or that Count Cavour, or Lord Palmerston, or Lord J. Russell did it; but it was accomplished in a great degree by the British people—at least in my opinion they had a good deal to do with its success. (Hear.) There was pn all sides—even among Conservatives—a strong feeling that the abominations practised by the King of Naples should not be allowed to continuo, for they were disgraceful to human nature. My hope is that Austria will give up Venetia, and if she give it up in time it may be possible that Austria, existing as a power in the centre of Europe, may prove a barrier to Russia; but unless Austria gives up Venetia soon, I think it will end in a great European war, and Austria will deserve to be extinguished. (Cheers.) The Volunteer movement has this great merit—that all parties coalesce in it. Party spirit seems to be where the Volunteers are concerned effete, and a man is as proud to be a private as he would be were he an officer. I believe it will also have this good effect, that in another generation men will be taller, stronger, and stouter, and indeed they will be more fitted to defend their country. I am quite sure it will add to the strength and health of the next generation, and I know that is the opinion of many persons who are acquainted with the laws of the health of the human body. Thehon. baronet having referred to almost every topic that had come under the notice of Parliament during the late session, resumed his seat amid lend and pro tracted cheering. The meeting passed a resolution expressive of its unabated confidence in the political principles and Parliamentary conduct of Sir John, and terminated with the usual compliment to the chairman. WATCHES AS A BRANCH OF FINE ART MANUFAC TURES.—" Having extended our search through the West end and the City, after an ordinary good English watch, possessing an artistic design, we have come to the conclu sion that but very few of our English watch many'actu-ers have yet properly appreciated the advance of the p ublic taste for a higher order of ornamentation from improved designs. Small though the watch is, it yet affords ample scope for the display of the genius of rn artist. It is, therefore, with much pleasure that wo can mention one manufacturerlwho has given especial attention to the artis tic ornamentation of watches, and whose productions mani fest a decided advance in regard to rules of art and the re quirements of an educated taste. The manufacturer here alluded to is Mr- J. W. Benson, whose recently enlarged show-rooms, at 33 and 34, Ludgate-hill, form one of the conspicuous features of this great City thoroughfare. The display of gold and silver watches, together with orm o l u clocks of rare designs , is q uite imposing to the passer-by. Here the purchs!ser of a watch is afforded every f ac ilit y o f c h oos ing one suited to his purpose and means, and pos sessing at the sa me time all that can be desired i n fi n i sh, t as t e , and dengn."—Globe.—Benson's illustrated Pam_ phlet, post free for two stamps, is descriptive of every construction of watch new made. Watches safe b y to all partA of the globe. post AMERICA. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY. The Asia, which touched at Queenstown yester day, arrived here to-day. The result of the Presidential election is thus summed up by the New York Times, a Republican organ : " The political campaign of 1860 has reached its termination, and has unquestionably resulted in the election of Abraham Lincoln to the office of President. In reaching this conclusion, we have very imperfect information from States which the consest of all parties had assigned to the Repub lican interest, but from what have been regarded as doubtful States there are overwhelming majo rities for the Republican ticket. The result in this city, where the Anti-Republican interest has ob• tained a plurality slightly exceeding 27,000, has, in connexion with such meagre returns as reach us from the counties, demonstrated the triumph of Lincoln in this State ; while in Pennsylvania, where a serious reduction of the 30,000 majority of Curtin in October had been looked to by zil parties, that majority in favour of Lincoln is swollen to an incredible figure, little less than 100,000. From Connecticut we also have large Republican gains, evincing the astonishing growth of the Republican sentiment. It would be unsafe to estimate the actual majority upon the Presidential ticket, but it is safe to announce the election of Mr. Lincoln as entirely assured. As incidents of this generakresuit we may mention that Mr. Pell has probably carried both Maryland and Virginia. As the present edition of our paper goes to press, we have too few returns from the Congressional canvass to announce a final list of the successful candidates. In Massa chnsets Mr. Burlingame has been defeated by Mr. Appleton, the Union cadidate ; and Mr. Eli Tnayer (Independent) is beaten by Bailey (Republican). The Republican tickets were elsewhere successful. In this city Mr. Wood is chosen from the Third, Mr. Kerrigan from the Fourth, Mr. Taylor from Fifth, Mr. Cocbrane from the Sixth, Gen. Ward from the Seventh, and Mr. Delaplaine from the Eighth District. From New Jersey we hear the gratifying intelligence that Speaker Pennington has been re-chosen over Perry, his Fusion antago nise. The local issues of this city have been di rersely settled, though we have no conclusive re turns of the contest. The impression, however, prevails, in view of such figures as have reached us at this hour, that Mr. Barnard is chosen Judge of the Supreme Court ; Mr. Ulshoeffer, Justice of the Superior Court; John T. Hoffman, Recorder ; Edward C. West, Surrogate ; John Sedgewick, City Judge; Matthew T. Brennan, Registrar; and C. Schwarzwaelder, Supervisor. The count for Assemblymen is still unfinished." The same journal remarks on the result as fol lows : " It is too early to speak confidently of detailed results of yesterday's election. But there can be no reasonable doubt that the Republicans have elected their President. It has been universally conceded that the issue lay with New York, and New York casts her vote for Lincoln. What the majority will be cannot yet be known. We believe, however, that it will fall very little, if any at all, below our esti mate of 40,000. Pennsylvania has very largely in creased her majority of October, and there is no reason to doubt that the New England States and the West are largely Republican. We have no disposition to exult over this victory, signal and important as it is. The contest, on the part of the Republicans, has been throughout one of principle ; on the part of their opponents it has been waged almost exclusively on the basis of fear. There has been no union of principle among them, nor have they been able to concentrate their strength upon a single candidate. The result is what might have been expected—disorganization, demoralization, and defeat. This election will inaugurate a marked and most important change in the administration of the Government. The policy of extending slavery and increasing its political power will now be checked. The slave interest will no longer im pose its claims and its law upon the Federal Government. The constitution will no longer be regarded as a mere instrument for fortifying and increasing slavery. The African slave trade will not be reopened, and more vigorous and effective measures will be taken for its suppression. But, above all, we shall have established at Washington a rule of honesty and patriotism in place of the corruption, imbecility, and intrigue which have controlled our public councils for the last few years. It is quite time we had a change in these respects. The Republicans now have it in their power to lay the basis for the most useful, popular, and per manent Administration the country has seen for a long time; but they must not conceal from them- selves the obstacles which they will be compelled to encounter." The New York _Herald repot is the result as fol lows : " The great battle has been fought and lost by the allied forces in New York. The presidential result may be summed up in three Words—Lincoln is elected. In a more exact form. according to the returns before us, the several States have cast their suffrages for President and Vice-President as fol lows : LINCOLN AND HAMLIN.

The news from the Pennsylvania October election, operating upon the divided democracy on the Pacifie coast, may perhaps give him also California andrn ng to Oregon. i We have neither space nor time this comment at length upon this great and momentous nianomentous revolution in our political affairs. Th Conserva tives, who still believe in the strength of the Union, •will be comforted with theassur ance anti - Republican majority in Housesboth in of Cn gr e t s h s e .

Are our anxieties at or are our troubles only to an swer until we shall have heard from the Legislature begin ? We cannot a of South Carolina touch ing the test question of Lincoln's election." The Nov York • Journal of Commerce remarks : We have wet the enemy, and we are theirs. Such, at least, are the unmistakeable indications. The splendid Democratic-Union majority of 29,000 in this city has doubtless been overborne by the avalanche of Black Republicanism from the middle, Western, and Northern parts of the State, and if so we have nothing to do but to submit with the best grace we can. The vote of the Empire State, added to those of other States which may be considered sure for Lincoln, make it all but certain that he will be our next President. We regret it deeply— profoundly ; not so much on our own account as be cause of the dangers it willhring upon the country. Heaven grant that she may sutvive them all. She has rode out many a storm, and may ride out this. One consolation remains to us as Conservative , men —viz., th a t we h ave b ot h H ouses o f C ongress . This will check any wayward fancies that may seize the Executive, under the pressure of his Abolition ad visers or otherwise. Let us hope for the best." The New York Courier and _Enquirer says : " All honour to the freemen of this Republic; congratulations warm and hearty be theirs, for the great principle of the defence of freedom within t sh .he free territories of the United States, to which the Republican party entered upon this can Tess, has its complete vindication in signal victory. (But, stsndieg thus rejoicing on the field of battles no unworthy exultation enters into the perfect satis -1 faction of our triamph. It is not a triumph which 1 brings ruin to those w ho have fallen ; it is, on the I contl-ess-•. - '-'- - - - ..:ph in which the fallen may rise We as item and share with the victors the fruits of victory. Abraham Lincoln is elected, but in his ladministration the South will find all their rights respected, and will see all the cloudo of misrepre sentation which have obscured his real charocter, and that of the party whose standard he bears, roll away from the view. Stretching out o'ur hands to the South over this victory, we have n'o word of taunt to utter for the threats of disunion' which were raised for our defeat. Let those threats be buried in oblivion; for through t he lon g vista I of this SUCCCSg we see a reign of peace from slavery agitation, establisilA simply by that circumscrib ing of slavery within its local bounds, and that film defence of the integrity of gatiol. , al freedom, which this triumph of the Republican party on the 6th of Novemb er , 1860, sea l s now an d hencorofth.” The New York Express says : " For the first time in the history of our 00v,ern ment, we have a President elected exclusively h)" a sectional vote, and by the agency of a party o'- ganised geographically. The consequence of this departure from the chart of Washington and from the spirit of the Federal Constitution remains to be seen. We deplore—deeply deplore it—and yvt as good citizens, it is our duty to make the best ol e it, and acquiesce in it, as under the forms of, if not in the spirit and intent of, the Consti tution. What our Southern countrymen may do remains to 1, ( -: en ; but we hope their apprehen sions will be )othed, if not assuaged, by the fact that the H,ase of Representatives as well as the Senate are to be Conservative, aid cannot be wielded for destructive principles against the States of the South. We are well aware, however, that the apprehensions of the South come not frozn Con gress, but from the Northern States themselves:- their personal liberty bills. their underground re'll roads, their incendiary publications, their judicial 7 7. 7 , - -'-- decisions AS in-the _ Lemmo n case, and from that .. general feeling of hostility which the States of the , North manifest against the States of the South, and which, as the South fears, must end is the revolu tion of the Federal Judiciary, and thus in the ewer; throw of the Judicial as well as Constitutiot: al protection these States have had since the founds tion of the Government and of the old Confederty tion. We hope and trust the newly-elected Pre sident will avail himself of the earliest opportunity to cut himself loose from the passions and preju dices that have elected him, and so give a pledge to the now fermenting Southern States, a pledge that he himself means nothing, whatever his party or partisans may mean by the election." It was rumoured at New York that the United States' gunboat Seminole had been destroyed by fire off Pernambuco. Thirty-nine persons had been killed on the Mis sissippi by the explosion of a steamer's boilers. At the special request of a number of prominent citizens of Georgia, the United States Arsenal at Augusta, in that State, had been placed in posses sion of Federal troops; and the arsenal at Fayette ville, North Carolina, was to be occupied by a com pany of the 2d Cavalry, at the request of citixenP of that place. This movement was intended as a measure of precaution in view of any possible trouble which might arise from the result of the Presidential election. Official despatches received at Washington from Peru represent that Mr. Clay had demanded his passport, at the same time addressing a note to the Government explaining his reasons. Presi dent Castillo was taken by surprise, as he had been led to believe that his proposition, which had been forwarded by Mr. Clay, would be acceptable to the Washington Cabinet: In reply, the Govern ment transmitted Mr. Clay's passport, with a reite ration of their argument in answer to his note. Senor Zagarra was instructed to remain at Washing ton until further orders from Lima, when he, too, will probably withdraw, and thus terminate all diplomatic intercourse between the two countries. Advices from San Francisco report the loss of the mail steamer Granada at the entrance of the harbour. A civil war had broken out in Yucatan, caused by the imposition of inland duties on goods from Campeachy, and a contention for the revenues of the island of Carmen. Preparations for hostilities were going on, and Campeachy was marching troops on the capital. A very extensive counterfeiting operation had been brought to light at Lebanon, Indiana, in which the cashier and several others connected with the Boone County Bank, in that place, are concerned. It is supposed that they have circulated from 300,000 dols. to 500,000 dols. in counterfeit bills on that institution. The spurious and the genuine notes are from the same plate, with the names of the auditor and register forged on the former. The president of the bank had fled, from which ci rcum st ance it is inferred that he is deeply implicated in the transactions. Advices from British Columbia to the 10th ult. state that the Government of Vancouver's Island was about to advertise to borrow 50,000 dols., at 12 per cent. interest, for the purpose of improving the harbour of Victoria. The mining news does not vary from previous accounts. It relates the usual items of discovery, with nothing very startling. The schooner Langley had sailed from Victoria on an exploring expedition to the north-west coast. She was manned by a crew of six men, whose par pose was to thoroughly explore the coast for pre cious metals as far as Sitka. She was fitted up with two three-pounders. The leader of the party is the celebrated Sebastopol Russian, well known as a suc cessful prospector on Fraser River. DREADFUL FIRE AT POPLAR ANIJ LOSS OF LIF.E.

For tunately, the proprietor of the shoe shop and his family were not at home when the fire commenced. The premises of Mr. Donovan were next door to the property of Mr. Quin, proprietor of the Silver Lion. Tavern, and it was owing to a little girl who was in this house that the fire was first discovered.
