Whole !doctoral vote

Lincoln's majority over all 35
The actual figures may somewhat change the distribution
of the States voting against Lincoln ; but from the general
ran of the popular vote in the free States, we consider it
perfectly safe to ast down Lincoln's electoral vote at 176.
The news from the Pennsylvania October election, operating
upon the divided democracy on the Pacific coast, may per-
haps give him also California and Oregon.

A very extensive counterfeiting operation has
been brought to light at Lebanon. Indiana, in which the
cashier and severe] other" connected with the Boone County
Bank, in that place, are concerned. It is supposed that
they have circulated from 3011,000 dole. to 600,000 dole. in
counterfeit bills on that Institution. The spurious and the
genuine notes are from the MMe plate, with the names of
, the auditor and register forged on the former. The presi-
dent of the bank had fled, from which circumstance it is
inferred that he is deeply implicated in the transactions.

Tna FATAL Bonn EXPLOSION AT Enrots-caoss.
—Yesterday afternoon Mr. Wakley, the coroner, resumed
the inquiry at the Victoria Tavern, King's-cross, into the
circumstances attending the deaths of George Wiggins
(engine driver) ind Charles Tanner (fireman), who were
killed on Thursday, the lat inst., by the explosion of a loco-
motive boiler at the works of the Metropolitan Railway. At
the last inquiry several. Ydtimeses were examined, amongst
them being Mr. Amos, of the firm of Easton and Amos,
and Mr. Ragland, of Mitcham, whose evidence went to
show that the explosion took place in consequence of over-
heating, and a defective construction of the boiler. The
inquiry was adjourned in order that the jury might have
the benefit of the evidence) of an officer who had been ap-
pointed to make an inspection by the Board of Trade, and
yesterday Captain Tyler, inspector of railways, wee in
attendance. He read • long and elaborate report, in which
be expressed an opinion that the engine was a very
old one, and that the fire-box had been inserted in it nine
years ago. It had been stated to him that it bad bad only .
three years' week since that time. There was a defect in
the crown plate of the boiler, and a patch had been put on
it since it had been in the pesesstan of Mr. Jay, the con-
tractor for the railway works, but that had nothing to do
with the accident. It was clear that the engine was not in
the first iustance properly constructed, the roof stays having
been put in in • very clumsy and irregular manner. It was
to the weakness of this part of the machinery that the ex-
ploeion was attributable. Looking to ell the cireumstances
ot the case he had come to the conclusion that the boiler
gave way on account of weakness from • pressure
under which it ought to have been perfectly safe.
He strongly recommended that more strict pre-
cautions should be enforced by government, in which
csse accidents would be as rare as they were
now frequent. The jury were nearly two hours coosidering
their verdict. At length they found that the two unfortu-
nate mei, were killed by the explosion of a boiler belonging
to Mr. Jay, the contractor, but that there was no evidence
cf
to show that say person was crim respousible with re-
gard to the accident. They ex their obligation' to
Mr. Amos, Mr. England, and Tyler, and requested
the coroner to bring Captain Ty 's report under the con-
sideratioe of the government. They also added that they
desired the coroner to convey their thanks to the Board of
Trade and the Home-office for the facilities which the heads
of those departments had granted in the prosecution of the
inquiry.. A third man; weed Church, who was near the
boiler when it exploded, is lying in the Great Northern
Hospital insensible, and with very faint hopes of recovery.
