the most signal triumphs which the repub-
lican cause has yet achieved in its cen
test with Jacksonism. The circumstan-
ces attending the election were such as
TO leave no room for cavil as to the
grounds on which Mr.. A was chosen.--
His competitor is the friend of the pres
cnt administration. Mr. Arnold is the
friend Of Mr.. Clay. Mr.. Lea denounc-
ed the American System and the Bank
Of the United States, and stated that the
administration was "staked" upon the HI
dian Bill Mr.. Arnold avowed his de-
yoton to the Tariff and Internal Improve
mcnts, characterised the Indian Bill as
"wickod mcasure," Iedged himself,
if elected, to go for its repeal, and de-
clarcd that he knew oino one measure OF
( General Jackson's administration which
| he approved! The press in the District
was all against him; the local banks were
against him-sX out of seven SheriIis
were against him. 1t is stated, morrow
er, that Mr.. Senator White was ardent
in his efforts to defeat MIR. Arnold; that
he attended at the polls on both the days
of election; scrutinlZcd the votes, and
was even involved by his unbecomng
zeal into personal alterations.
Under all these discouraging circun-
stances, in one of the strong holds OF
Jacksonism, and in defiance of executive
patronage, Mr.. Arnold has been elected.
Our readers recolect his contest with
NIr. Lea before Congress, i'll the winter
of $3.50, and the ability and moral
courage which he manifested on that oc-
casion. His constituents will, we doubt
not, find abundant cause in his Congress
sional career to congratulate themselves
on having elected him; and we trust that
his success will encourage the opponents
Of the present wretchcd administration,
to organize their strength against it, cv-
Ell in quarters where that strength may
be apparently inconsiderable. Where
did Gen. Jackson seem safer than in
1 Tennessee; and yet even there he has
been made to learn that "truth is NIGH
ty, and will prevail" With proper cf-
forts on the part of the National Rcpub-
licans, he will be taught this lesson in
every part OF the Cnion.-.Nat. Jour.

The New York Courier has the fol-
lowing paragraph.

wvDrANA.-No doubt Of the Jackson
candidate for Governor having been
elected in this State.
"Now the fact is that Mr.. Noble, one
Of the two Clay candidates, is so far
ahead of the Jackson candidate, as to
render his election almost sure. The
Courier could have had no information
to justify he above assertion.

ELECTION. The frecmcn of this State
will assemble in their respective towns
on Tuesday next, for the purpose OF
electing Representatives to Congress,
and Representatives to the General As
scmbly. In this town, we would par
hcularly caution our political friends to
be at their post early.-An opposition ii
is city generally understood, will be
made to some of our Representatives
in the General Assembly. 1t is there
fore highly important that we should be
at the polls in season and not leave the
ground until the contest is fairly over and
won. We know of no opposition to oul
Congressional Representatives, but
nevertheless, hope the freemen will give
them large and respectable vote.

/ INDIANA. The indianapolis Journal
and the Ninccnncs Sun, both of the 9th
inst. contain the returns of the election
for Governor Of that State. AS two OF
the Canddates-Noble and Stapp, are
National Republicans, by adding their
votes together it Will be seen that the
strength Of the Clay party i'll the State
OF Indiana is nearly double to Tint OF
the Jackson party. The whole number
of votes for n oblc is l1,O32-lor Read
1I,I26-and for Stapp 1895. The bad
policy of thus dividing the an'i-adnIinis-
traton votes, and thereby contributing
to the success Of the political enemy, is
sufficiently apparent; but it is equally
evident that let who will be elected
Governor, the State is decidedly Clay.

| AMI surgeon -
lady, suffering from incarcerated or
lstrangulated hernia, was informed by her
physician, after exhaustiEg his efforts at re-
duction, that she must submit to the opera

it. He soon arrived, with knives thirsting
for blood, and prepared to afford her relief
by displaying the paraphcrRalia of his Of
fee. 4 chemist, who was present, told the
surgeon that if lie had O pair Of Leliows he
could relieve the patient without the knife.
The lady overheariDg him, and preferring
chemistry vastly before surgery, soon had
her kitchen bellows transferred to the
chamber, and ardently beseught him to try
the experiment. The surgeon was now d.
reeted to lay by his sanguinary case of in
sttnments, and simply pour sulphuric ntfer
upon the tumor, while the chemist busily
Piled the bellows to hasten its evaporation.
In few moments the structure was over

the lady was strong enough to get up and
run away, leaving the doctor, surgeon, and
chemist, to soliloquize upon the comparative
merits of their respective departments Of
Science.-Badger's Messenger.

tilation from corn, perceived an oil which
rose upon the surface of the liquor. He
took pains TO collect it and make n trial of
its properties. 1t has been determined hy
repeated experiments by various persons,
that the oil answers as well for burRing as
the best spermaceti oil. 1t is equally pure
and as free from any offensive smell, and
will burn as long. Further experiments are
making of its use in painting, and it is alleg-
ed although fair trial has not yet been
made) that it answers all the purposes Of
linseed oil. Mr.. Curtis procures little
less than "a quart from bHshe of corn, and
from to IL gallons per day, from the guam
tty of corn he works up. This is worth
