AATCHFAELDs AUGUST IJ, lSSOs
 KeRtmcky EIecsiOm-The elections in this state for members of the legislature were held the 2d, Sd and 4h inst Returns from few counties only have been received, and those are far from being salis(ac tory. In Fayeae, the coussy ia which MT. Clay re- sides, the anti-JacksoM candidates succeeded though by less majority lhan last year. In Franklin, John J. Crittenden is elected by small majority. In Ma son, and Clark the and in Mercer the Jackson candidates were successful. Partial returns from few other counties are received, but nothing decisive. The election has been looked with con- siderable sOlicude abroad, as the next legislature is to choose Senator to Congress. And should the anti Jackson folks ssucceed-which appears somewhat pro- blemaca!-we hope to see MT. Criuenden translated 1 to the U. s. Senate in place f,Mr. Rowan.
 Neso- Fork NOm;n0tions.--Th Anti-Masonic Con- vention which convened at Utica the Huh inst. nominated for the office of Governor Francis Gran- ger of Canandaigua, and for Lieut.. Governor Samael Steuens, of New-York. Both candidates are advan- tageousy known to the people of New-York. Mr. Granger, it will be recoIected by our readers, was some weeks since brought forward for the office at meeting on Long Island of the friends of Mr. Clay.- Should he therefore obtain the votes of both these par ties, there be little doubt that he will be elected in defiance of the t!reats of the disciples of St. Tam many. As man oftalents aud sterling worth, and as the friend of Henry Clay, we should be glad to such a result-atthe same time, we must confess are not much pleased with the idea of his being held up as the an,i-masonic candidate. The people of the state of fNew- York however are abundany will ling to manage their affairs without oar inerer- ence. MT. Stevens is said not to be an anti-mason. ] Disturbance at Yale Collsge-We had some days since heard of rebellion, is called, in this insti tuition, among the young gentemeh of the sophomore class; but as the papers in New-Haven made no men- ton of the circumstance, did not then think tt po litic to alude to it. The matter however is preached in other and distant papers. The class have, it appears, as usual such occasions published pam phlet manifesto, detailing their grievances, and the origin as they doubt consider ii of the disturbance. Forty three of the class left coege-to return say in few days, convinced that the laws and regulations of insIi,u,ion like Yale neither to be trampled under foot treated with disrcspect.- The New-York Journal of Commerce gives the fol- lowing summary of the contents of,he pamphlet issued by the students:
 "The origin of the difficulty was petition on the part of the class, most of them July 28th) "re- questng permission to explain Comic Sections frOu the book, and not to demonstrate them from figures, fetu preceding classes had done. This petition not being granted answered by the Faculty, the next step the process was, insist upon the privilege Of explaining and not demonstrating the lesson, and re-

To ascertain the extent of the combination all the names were put ln- box at the hour recitation, and nine successive 4y draRn omand lle indlvdmas Aerrogasea ne io the motives which induced them to decline reciting cording to the mode directed by the Faculty. Each ofthe nine having declared thai they influenced
 tn dOing by the resolution which had been taken ai
 previous meeting, the Tutors dseonsinued the reci-
 aon, declaring that they would pursue the 'nvest'- gaiion further, as was evident the whole class had decided upon opposition lp the government of the College. At subsequent hour, one Of the Professors informed that they were all suspended until the next morning, but that the nine were rec served for especial punishment. When the morn ing came, the class were summoned individually to sign paper, declaring that they would rec'te Con- The "forty three" refused 10 sign: but upon a re- consideration of the subject they afterwards address ed communication to tie Faculty, stating iheif will deseron of the support of the nine whose tate still undetermined, stating also their calm, and decided and promedaled resolution to obtain the same pun. ton to which they were subjected. The amount o' where they say, "We had receded from all oar re- quests and had stated to the Faculty our readi- ness to continue our accustomed duties, provld- ed the nine were permitted do the same. But the Faculty not disposed to treat on such terms. It was afterwards understood by the orty-three that three of those concerned in the rebellion had been dismissed (privately being the most active ins'iga tors and conductors of the rebellion On Monday las they remark, we sent the Faculty to inquire into the veracity of our information respecting the nal dismisson of the three, stating af the same time f those gentleman had been dismissed, that l'ence- forward considered ourselves 6aaly dismissed from the College" The Faculty refused to receive their wards sent, they refused audience. /" This" say the forty ihree ahso!ved US from all censure, at least in our own conviction. We now consider our selves, virtually, dismissed from College, aud will act 1 accordingly"
 Mr. Ciay.-At apubIc dinner given to this gentle ma" at the Sulphur Springs, Ohio, at the close of an 1 address on being complmented with a toast, he gave the following sentiment:
 "The Union-Any just sacrifice to strengthen and preserve no concessions tO lmp0tent threats to dis 1 solve it."
 How the nulfying" gentlemen of the souther" states will relish it remains to be seen. is stated that there were 1000 persons at the dinner. On his way home, at Cincinnati, Mr. Clay was met by pro- cesson of 300 horsemen and upwards of 3O carriages
 &c. Wherever he moves. the accIamations and joy ous greetings of the people arc with him.
