Pennsyluania-The election for Governor, Mem
bers Of Congress, &C. took place last Tuesday. The
locos and wings both making great efforts to car
ry the Sate-the ocos to retain what they now have
and the wings to wrest it from them. II the wings
should not succeed they will stand just as they now
do. except the loss of the Governor who was chosen
three years ago by minority cote. in consequence Of
q split in the loco ranks. $}tsss
NeiO Jersey, Ohio, and South Carolina held their
elections also ON the day. Our opinion from all
that we can gather. now is, that the two former will
have gone wing, and the latter loco. few days will
put the question at rest.
Georgia held her election for Members Of Congress
on Monday Of last week. Parties there ere 30 mix
ed up that IL is difficult At this distance to determine
who's who-state rights and notification union and
administration whig and tory. Returns are receiv-
ed from only few counties-not enough to wanan:
any opinion % 70 the general result.
ar By the last mail we learn that what is called
the whp ticket for Congress has in Is counties about
IL 800 votes, and the loco foco union ticket about
$500. There are sOms,hng like 70 counties in the
Sate,hose of in the Indian nations being Of course
strongly loco.
Sod Accidenf-We learn that James Trowbndge,
ESQ. Of Roxbury, as he was At work upon the Gam

fell of Or slipped OF about eight feet, and struck has

POVERTY IN New YoRK.-The New
York city papers of the 9th. inst. assert
that the disclosures made at the various
ward charity meetings, are ofthe most aw-
ful and heart-rending character, and great
" beyond any scenes of the kind that have
ever occurred in that, city, within their
recollection. The central committees
report that at the present period, that not
less than forty thousand persons are de-
pendent on the hand of charity for their
daily supplies of food and fuel. And these
are the people, in part, who so bitterly
denounce the institution of slavery, and
SO feelingly sympathise with the unhappy
condition of the slave population of the
southern states.-Grdnd Cuff Advertiser

have viewed the world through the glass
of romance--we wonder that with the ex-
perience of thousands sounding in our
ears and reproving our folly, we should
have INDUCED in Utopian dreams. /,
We examine our characters and md
that we are not what we once were. Our
being has been changed. What constl-
tutes our identity in youth hardly constr
tutes our identity now. Age has thrown
US into new mould. Where are the prin-
ciples that ruled us in early life? The
motives that then swayed US? The ex-
pectations that then guided the farthest
region of the future? Where are the pas
sions that then abode in our bosoms, the
disinterested friendship, that thought only
of its object, the pure love that was be-
bestowed upon others, and the sympathy
that touched us at the petty misfortunes
of our companions9 As the stream takes
the color fits water from the soil through
which it passes, so does nature borrow Its
hue from the different ages of life. What
once was true is now falsehood. Friend
ship has become enmity-love has been
turned into hate. Moderation has assum-
ed the place of extrayagance-reality has
thrown imagination into the background.
The inward frame is entirely new. With
the flight of years, our bodies change. Re
gularity is succeeded by deformity and
beauty by LONELINESS. The eye soon To-
SEES its brightness-the cheek its bloom
the form its grace. Old acquaintance
pass US, but they know us not. What is
this alteration compared with that which
the heart experiences? IT'S there, that
change writes its history in the deepest
lines.
