The Globe has found ont, aNer stou,ly

think, when the official ascertnins, tha
the Wing majority for Governor is rising
1000, it will be Informed and understand
also, that the majority ia the Leg islature
is exactly the other way. II is not the

New JERsEy.-The Van Buren, men
have held "a Convention in this State for
nominating members Of Congress and
Electors Of President and Vice Presi-
dent, which broke up after days ses-
sion in much admired confusion. They
elected without ceremony, after violent
quarrel, all their old members Of Con-
gress, and substituted an entirely new
ticket-the very worst it is said, they
could have possibly agreed on. The
Wings have now n fair prospect Of plac-
ing the "Jersey blues" in their old post
Of honor, in the very front Of the battle.

rcn 78, ,053-majority IN favor Of the Van

ber Of votes given at the hate election in
these counties is lat ,623.
The aggregate vote Of the same coun-
ties in 1884 was i6i ,25l. aggregate
falling of, compared with The last Con-
gressioNal election 1858.
The saIDe counties nj the election Of
Governor in 1885 gave an aggregate
vote Of l73 ,487. Aggregate falling off
in the vote Of forty counties this year,
compared with the election one year ago,
%, 1864. From this shouIc be deducted
the vote Of Monroe comfy, which was
not organized last year, hut there will
yet remain u falling of in these counties,
including Philadelphia, Of nearly twenty
FIVE thousand votes, as compared with
the election one year ago!
This calculation proves that %, 900
votes are yet to be polled; and without
stopping to ascertain or estimate in what
manner any Of them voted upon past
questions, we should merely ask, how
these voters are likely to cast their votes
whether with the Wings, or Van Bu-
rem men and Dallas agrarians, when the
Presidential question, and the still great
er Convention question, call them to the
polls, in November3 Who shall say,
there is not yet good hope Of Pennsylva-

From the Cincinnati Wing Of Oct. 18th.
~OsE HUNDRED CHEERs FOR OHiO!
The returns from our late election
come in daily mcst favorable. General
! Vance, the Wing candidate, is no doubt
elected by a majority Of from five to ten
thousand.
We have thus far gained one member
of Congress and from present indications,
we shall have a majority in the Legisla-
ture on joint ballot, Notwithstanding the
infamously unjust apportionment bill pass
ed by the Van Buren'es, at the last ses-
sion. We did not anticipate majority
for the Wings in the Legislature, and
should the final result prove our friends
in the ascendant there, the triumph will
he signally glorious and astounding. -
Enough is known, however, to prove that
tho State will 60 for OLD TIPPecANoE by
large majority.
Let our friends abroad be sure Of that,
and send up their shouts in proud and
confident exultation. We ask for Ohio
100 cheers.
An Extra from the office Of the Ohio
State Journal gives list Of the members

ties show THiRTY-sEvEN HARRisoN Rep
reese entatives, and twenty for Van Buren,.
The whole number Of the Senate is
SO, and Of the House 79. 1t is there
fore ascertained that the Wings will have
a majority in the House, and it is be-
lieved in the Senate also.
Taylor Webster, the present Van Bu-
rem member of Congress from the second
District has been defeated. The Wings
have therefore gained t,so members Of
Congress in Ohio. This intelligence
we derive from the Cincinnati Wing.

TAYLOR WEBSTER DEFEATED.
We have the high satisfaction to an
nounce to onr readers that news has been
received confirmatory Of the report Of the
defeat Of Taylor Webster.
Jesse Corwin, his opponent, has been
elected by majority Of 81 votes. This
is glory enough for one day, and well
repays the loss Of Storer.
LATEST FROM OHIo.-It appears that
notwithstanding the gerryma ndering sys-
tenn adapted by the Van Burenites in
Ohio last winter, the Wings will have a

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. Stn.
We learn from the Capt. of the schoone
Halcyon, from Matamoras, that every thing
was quiet at that place, at the time Of his de
parture, (the LIST inst.) About 5000 troop:
were there, 1900 Of whom were well disci
plined. They were waiting for recruits
The money for paying them of was daily ex
pected. As soon as this was done, and the
reinforcensents had arrived. it was expected
they would commence operations. The ar
my was healthy. The Texan vessels Of war
BrItus and Union had appeared off the bar,
but again left. A short time after their de-
parture, two Mexican vessels came into
port.
John Quincy Adams speech in Congress in
regard TO the affair OF Mexico and Texas was
highly extolled in Matamoras. 1t had been
translated and published in Spanish, and had
gained for him the appeIation OF the Demos
themes Of America.
The only thing contained in the Matamo-
ras papers are the reasons ass igned by FilasO-
Ia for obeying the orders of Santa AnnaA in
Withdrawing the troops, sc.
The HalcyOn brings SlO5.OOO in specie,
which we think goes to show that the COM
mercial relations between the two countries
will not be interrupted, as many have ina
gined, by the detention Of Santa Anna.

Consul at Matamoras by James w. Breed

ment. for the introduction of provisions on |
