LATCHFGELD, NOV. 6, 1884.
 The notice from the Secretary pro ten. of the Lirch field County Temperance Society a. its late meeting i' South Farms has been received but as does nO differ in the names of the officers elected from the brief aOsice published last week, we have not hOugh it worth while to publsh it. The accouot says-sFAn able aud interesting address delivered before the meeting by Dr. BronsOn or Waterbury. The meeting was also addressed by Rev. Mir. HickOk of Li,chfed. Fhe meeting adj"Orned IO meet in Rorbmy on the fourth Tuesday of NOvemLer."
 Our readers referred tue second page of this days paper foe article from the British Court Jour. nal with regard to the character of Mr. Van Buren, l will be that the opinion of that paper (which usually speaks as the organ ofgOvernmen that he as of the leaders of what it considers the democratic party, is the perso" Lee calculated to bring this gov er"ment first int" Ognrchy, and tIen into EMitrd monarchy Gen. Jackson having DO sons to inherit the crows" cannot blythe British governmen, be con- sdered suitable person to bring aLou revolution as Mir. Van Buren.
 Last night at sunset the election in the State of New York closed. h will have been probably one of the most spirited and closely consesied conflicts as has ever taken place eveM in that excable state. We roufess thai prepared hear lha, ,he Jackson Van Barcn party successful so far as the elec- 'ion ofihe Governor majority of the members Of,he legislature. and also majority ofthe members of Con gress, concerned. The vast power and patronage ofb",h the general and all she offices n eacl'-are held by the Jackson party; aaL every wilt be exered, aud money profasey expended sustain the asceMdancy of the pariy But ahaN he disanno;nfoA if sho SVb;0a hava noe o, increase of Members of Congress. This grea, state eends 40 Representatives Congress. or the presen, delegation there are g Jacksonmen and ouly eight Wings. And from the best information we eau ob- sain the struggle will be strong and the majority either way be small, in from twenty to thirty districts Beyond that is believed the Jackson party will suc ceed by considerable majori,ies. We have scarcely any hope of obtaining majority of Members of Con gress. That Mr. Va" Buren, with all the advantages which wealth aud power aod patronage can give him. coupled with the effect which pride would naiu- raliy produce minds, should not succeed in is native state, wouid indeed be surprising. We are prepared ihen, repeat, hear that Van Burenism will in he nais be successful in the Empire S,a,e," though not by so great majority as heretofore.
 Dangae being appreheNded at the election from the moLiis spirt which has sundry occasions oi late aeen manifested i" the ely of New-York, the Mayor has ssoed proclamation, as ae suggestion of the city authorities requesting ali ,he voters ofhe city to con. fins themselves to the wards ia which they respective. y reside. This may be a very proper measure, bu. very much dOubI whether it will be sufficiently aended lo to prove eHicacious. The Jacksaa party at Hartford one day last week 6red 100 guns ia hssor Of tha great Jacksan ctOry achieved iN Ohio by the Joss of two members of Con- gress. % 90 members of the Legslatu,e, and 600O votes foe their Governor:-and the Whigs day sr ,wo afterwards fired equal number for their gan in the sane s,aie Lose gaia remain stationary, the yacksoaians must make noise. "Vlllainous salt pe,rs" mus. be burnt.
 From the official canvas ofvotes by the Legislature oi versBoat for Members of Congress, it appears sai Nlessrs. Hiiand ili Ofihe lst district, and Wm Sade of the 2J are elec,e-he former by 95 majority, the latter by 733. h has been generally believed that OnIy one district had chosen it's member In the three remaining districts, asolher coRest will be had soon In ,wo of ,hem the Whiss have large majority; bu, a he third the Jacksoaans have Aatered themselves that they should succeed in elsc,ing Mr. Fletcher accoas ofihe per,inaciy of the whgs and an'im"sons iu adhering their respective candidates. This dif- sul,y is said Is removed by the most prominen, ca0dda,e (Nir. Uphamj consen,ing to have his name wi,hdrawa. Mir. James and Mr. Fletcher wi ,hcre- fore be the oniy candidates.
