FOR VICE PRESIDENT
RICHARD Nj. JOHNSON.

All hail to the Democracy of Massa-

themselves and glorious is their triumph.
1t is with heartfelt satisfaction that we
publish the returns Of the election as far
as received. May the accounts from
other parts Of the state be equally cheer
ing. We look for them with great ankle
ty, confident that even old Massachusetts
is becoming tired and disgusted with the
"b base compound" and will very soon
stand redeemed, rcgenerated and olsen
thralled from the blighting influence Of
modern whiggcry.
From the New Bedford Gazette of yesterday.
The Second Monday of November has passed a.
way and, it is to be hoped, has carried with it all
the political jealouses, fears, and anxiees which
invariably possess the minds of the people of Mas
for few weeks days prior to its com
ing. Our returns for State Officers are few--quite
to enable to form probable estimate
IF the result The correct statement which we pub
ish shows that the Republican Ticket" for Rep
of this town is elected entire, by
rage majority Of about two hundred. Last year
he Wing Ticket" was elected entire by about
he same average majority.

Extraordinary Tragedy at Sea.-By letters re-
Gently received at Liverpool, we learn that an ex-
traordinary tragedy took place on board the Ros-
sendale. Captain Ware, of that port on her passage
from Batavia to Canton. Whilst on her VOYAGE,
the ship was crossed by an Arabian vessel, from
which Maly threw. himselfinto the sea, and swan
to the Rossendae. The Captain of the latter took
him on board, and it not possible to send
him back to the vessel to which he belonged, he
was clothed and allowed to live and sleep with the
crew. On the following morning, Captain Ware
was alarmed by hearing shrieks, and an apprentice
rushed into his cabin with his throat terribly cut
and pouring out blood the wounds were of such
nature that death very shortly ensued. The Cap
tam issued forth to learn the cause, when the Ma
lay, seeing him, to the bow of the ship, threw
himself overheard, and was drowned On going
into the cabin occupied by the crew, the Captain
found another of the apprentices lying dead, having
had his throat cut by the Malay, who must be sup.
posed to have been insane, as no motive can possi
bly, be assigned for his conduct When he threw
himself overheard no other vessel was in sight. and
the Rossendale was seventy leagues from land
The names OF the two murdered apprentices were
John Mean and Francis Richardson.

Another Monster,-A petrfed sharks tooth hes
been recently discovered by the accidental
ton oft bank of York River, Virginia. Judging
from comparison of the largest sharks teeth Of the
present day. the animal to which it belonged, must
have been Eirty forty feet in length. The tooth
ls perfect the enamal preserved, and the root entire
Ihe length of the the tooth from the root to the
point Is 3 inches, and the widest part inches.
We have conyersed, says the Norfolk Herald with
several intelligent sea captains, who have looked
many fierce monster in the face, and are we'll
skilled in the wonders of the ocean, and leara from
them that the tooth is assuredly that of shark and
OF a size utterly unknown in modern times. The
subject OF this paragraph is, then, another proof,
added to the ten thousand already existing, Of the
inferiority of the size of modern animals when
compared with their antediTuvian race, or to speak
more strictly, of the fact certain large animals that
formerly existed, are not to be found in modern
times.

An original tiek.-The West Chester Republi

An origiddl tfek.-The West Chester Repub-
can on Monday last, relates the following:
On the morning of Wednesday last while the cars
were making Third street, Philadelphia, to the in
clned plane, gentleman passenger affected to be
seized with sudden chill, and manifested all the
shlverlne tokens thereof A fellow traveller in or
der TO render his situation comfortable as crcum-
stances would permit, generously rendered the suf.
ferer his cloak to mufle himself with. On arriving
at the head of the plane the owner Of the cloak
discovered that not only the victim of the chill
missing, but that his garment had also as uncere-
monopsly decamped, and as far as he was interes-
ted might be numbered among the "things tina,
were." The truth mt once flashed upon him tha,
he had heen the dupe Of imposition, and that the
a" milk Of human kindness" running through his
conformation had been the main auxiliary to it.
Thus is that frequently the good properties of one
class of our fellow beings, are made subseryient to
the profit and advantage of the evil propensites OF
the other.

GJ~The New Yorker an ably, conducted paper

we hnd the following horrid recital in the Miners
Journal, published at Pottsvlle Pa 1t is almos, to
bad for belief:
Dreadful accident and artal seene-On Saturday
evening last, little girl, by the name Of Langton
residing In the suburbs of this borough aged about
years, was burnt to death, it is supposed by her
clothes taking fire. Her parents were absent at the
time On the following morning a coroner's inquest
was convened at the house, and the parents of the
child were SO beastly drunk that they could not give
any information respecting its death. In the after
noon the corpse was conveyed through the borough
for interment by five persons, among whom was the
tather SO much intoxicated that he staggered along
the streets, and in one instance fell down. May our
citizens never behold another such an awful scene.

Sir Jchn f. w. Herschel, in his treatise On As
tronomy says The moon has clouds, nor any
other indications of an atmosphere. Were there
any, 1t could not fail to be perceived in the occulta
tons OF stars and the phenomena of solar eclpses.
Hence Its climate must be very extraordinary the
alienation being that of unmitigated and burning
sunshine fercer than equatorial noon, continued
for a whole fortnight, and the keenest severity of
frost, for exceeding that of our polar winters, for an
equal time. Such disposition ofthings must pro-
duce constant transfer of whatever moisture may
exist on its surface, from the point beneath tine sun
to that opposite by distlation in paeue after tho
manner of the little instrument called eryophorus.
The consequence must be absolute aridty below the
vertical sun, constant accreton of hoar frost tho
opposite region, and perhaps narrow of run
ming water at the borders of the enlightened hemis-
phere. is possible, then, that evaportion on the
one hand, and condensation on the other, may to a
certain extent preserve equilibrium of tempera-
ture, and mitigate the extreme severity of both cli-
mates"

Things to Be Neted.-In Belmont county the
Wings had Harrison meeting, and are now de-
feated in the election. Last year they carried every
thing.
In Muskingum they had Harrison meeting, and
their majority is reduced from 400 to l6O.
In Ross they had great Harrison meeting, and
are defeated in toto. They were heretofore invul-
nerable in Ross.
In Franklin they had Harrison meeting, and
arc defeated. Heretofore they had the power.
In Stark grand Harrison meeting was had,
and they are defeated.
In Hamilton they had Harrison meeting, and
are Waterloo'd. Last fall they elected Storer.
So much for the counties in which the people
had called spontaneously" on Old North Bend,
and would have none other for President Do
these things mean nothing l-Vestern Hemisphere.
The following brief but pithy dialogue occurred
on the epson road between a cockney and a coun-
