Gc:rLrMEx: ! can give you but little The
Judges in the borough district have only counted off the
sheriff box; but from the result for sheriff. it is obvious
that whole ticket has carried by about 900 majority
in the county. Last year, owing 10 the division IN our
ranks, the majority was 100 against us. The gain will
be leo. From The few townships in the neg hbnri!nod
that have been heard FROM Logan has, in every instance,
gained his competitor over his vote in 1874 ii 10 ma
ioriiy then over Bantz 500 1t cannot now be less
than 1000 over Kirk.
IloxHsr PEyysyLvASlA.-This sound strong, honest
Commonwealth stands out in noble relief, among The
saunches, strrncs and most ncnrrupble IN political
integrity. Her politicians have been bought, but her
people never Firm, independent and answering, they
march to the polls and scatter the mcrccnaTirs as The
breath Of autumn the insects OF summer F"harng ana
indnlgcnt pruvocaons are sometimes endured IN co'S
dpratinn of previous services; but whenever the t"t
appears, the viruous Ianpdcns OF the State cast them
oil
1t will be seen that although the bribery Of The Bank
took effect in the Legislature, lis five millions Of 30
Nus could not buy the people. q" Tutuc, Liberty and
Undergraduates Qhc State true mot:o are far dcarcr TO
the hearts of the people, than roads and canals banks
and all their bonuses. Our columns OF to-day show Il
succession Of victories in many condlng counties, that
took professions for facts. Undeccived by the open pro-
fgacy Of the last Legislature they have spurncd the
tath,css and dishonest party from their favor. Witness
Dauphin. Lebanon Adams Franklin. Delaware. These
glorious counties nobly redeemed. We hope
to hear Of others But enough already known to give
all hail to honest Pcnnsy Globe.

DEAR Sir: Returns from the whole county have just
come in. The Democracy Of Dauphn have elected their
entire ticket; Congress, Assembly, Sheriff, Commits
sionrr, NC, by majority Of over 200! Ritners mao-
ri,y here last fail both the Democratic candidates
was upwards of sOO So much for Opposition gains IN
Pennsylvania
From Cumberland have heard enough TO prove
that our ticket is elected by large majority.
Lebanon has also been partially heard from, enough to
determine TO certainty that DR.. Kelley goes 10 Congress
in the place of Mr.. Clark
There cannot he remaining doubt, but the Democra-
cy of the State have achieved more signal and over
whelmnp victory, than any ever gained before. The
Opposition will not have twenty members in the House
OF Representatives,.

prevails, and in which Ritner had about 1900 ma ority

we have $40 majority for the Democratic candidate; and
