state as yet, though there are conceded to hiss this morning the
following : Maine, 6 vein; New Hampshire, 6; Michigan, 6.
M. Van Buren has not yet a single state. Ohio is at present
doubtful, as the returns, by telegraph, are unfavourable to
the come of Oen. Taylor. In addition, however, to the
124 seats already sure for him, there will be added the vote
of Georges, 10 voles; Tennessee, 16; Lasing's*, 6;
Florida, 3; while there is a fair chance for some of the other

Mends has had an action both ways. It has injured the

domots in New York and Pennsylvania equally as much.
It si
new pretty certain, by the largeness of Taylor's vote,
that a great many persons have supported him quietly and
without noise. The friends of Cam were sanguine of succor
up to yesterday morning, end they laid wagers with a eon
fidelities truly estonithiog. They always rely upon the dis-
cipline of party, but this time they have been mistaken.
There is, no doubt, but the sterling private character of
General Taylor his had a gnat influence upon the decision of
our most intelligent citizens.
Two things in connection with this election strike us as
worthy of notice. One is the great quietness with which this
election of the rulerljof the union his been conducted. No
other country can present such a spectacle. In Europe
bloodshed and violence are necessary to bring about any such
change. Here, it is a mere debate in friendship."
Another is the proof which this choice of Gen. Taylor
'fords of the superior tact and sagacity of those statesmen
who brought him forward es a candidate at this time. The
Mends of Mr. Clay, who "go it blind" for their favourite,
would have risked their whole party for this one person,
sad, in risking, would have again been signally defeated.
It is to be hoped that the wise counsels of Gen. Taylor's
Mends may not now cease to influence public affairs. We
look to a career of peace and prosperity under his admi-
nistration.
We have bad rumours of the approach of the cholera in
sans at the German vessels arrived at this port. But no
appreheneksa exists here at prosaic in relation to its imme-
diate ravages. We look upon the threatened desolation
with aunty, as we fear that in this city many thousands
must fall before its assaults, since the lower wards are
crowded with istnignnte, hundreds in a house, when
filthy dwellings and disregard of personal cleanliness expose
them to disease. These people will not go into the sonny
where their labour is really required, but remain here to as-
sociate with their countrym-n and form false estimates of
themselves and their importance. Many of them suppose
that the question of free soil is one which will give them, if
decided favourably,. right to go and select farms for them-
selves, without money and without price. Nothing can be
more unfortunate than the hypocritical attention paid to
these poor ignorant. creation by our designing p
