WALL SEREET.-We thought, 30 years
ago, that some time or another. within rea-
sonable period, that this "sireet ,oouLd be
finished" But ever since that period it has
been constantly in state of revolution; and
now we understand that next year the public
are to be more inconinoded than ever. The
City Bank, Merchants Bank, and Manhattan
banking buildings arc oil to be torn down, as
soon as spring opens, and large and orna-
mental buildings erected in their stead. For
the last few years tho Custom-tlouso and
Merchants Exchange, with several other
buildings going up have kept the street SO
much upside down that it has been difficult
to get along. Indeed several accidents have
occurred and some lives lost. We were a

others, into vault some Is feet deep, while

multitude that pass through it ut certain
hours in the day is greater than that Of any
other street in the city. We hope this street
will, some day or other, "be fnished."-
Within the period we have named every
house on the south side has been pulled
down, and some OF them three times, and
rebuilt again. On the North side only five
buildings remain untouched. Nearly every
house in tho street twenty five years ago was

ANOTHER IMPROvEMEsr IN RAILROAD
CARs.-We yesterday saw exhibited, on the
track in front OF the Exchange, couple oi
railroad cars, built we understand, by MIR. I'm
lay, and intended to run on the Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore railroad. They
were saId to be fifty feet in length, and have
eight wheels each. The interior Of one OF
them is so constructed that the seats can be
Immediately changed into two tiers of berths'
by which twenty four persons can be accom-
modated. This is calculated for night car,
and an idea of its internal arrangement for
sitting or sleeping may be formed from that
of the packet boats on the New York and
Pennsylvania canals. These two were beau
tiful cars, and are to be used by that company
which, more than any other in the United
States, deserves credit for the convenience,
as well us magniticencc and splendor OF its
improvements. The next step, we presume
will be to have the cars furnished with ac-
commodations for dining in them while ON the

TIE PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION
TOBE CONTESTED.

Tar Political FRAUDS IN PENNSYLVANIA.
The Gettysburgh Star which, 1t is stated, is
supposed to be the organ Of the Hon. Thad'
deus Stevens, says:-
.For the last ten years in the County OF
Philadelphia, the votes returned have oorne
no resemblance to the votes actually polled
The Inspectors and Judges being secured
before the day Of election, and when they
count off. the spurious box IL substituted Ioi
tho genuine one Tickets, with name u
correspond, are added far beyond those actu
ally polled! Such this year is known to have
been the case in the County OF Phliadelph'a.
lespecially in Kensington, making dinerehce
against Mr.. Ritner os about two thousaho
votes :,
That corrupt system, long practlsed IN
Philadelphia county, has this year oeen pu'
in successful operation in Berks anu sln'os'
all their strong counties. In many OF tne"'
where the instruments were bunglers, they
have not been able to add through the whole
ticket. but have added only the Governors
ticket. In several counties, the votes return
ed for Governor is from 300 to SOU more than
for the other parts of the ticket! Ihs
conclusive evidence Of fraud. In other conn'
ties, more votes have been returned thah
there are taxables! A thing impossible 10
be honestly done, except where public woiKs
are in progress. The votes actually poiiea
heretofore have usually been about two-'hlras
as many as the taxables in the State. IL u
believed that 10000 more votes over looo'
are this year returned than the true increase
Of voters.
Tn the County of Philadelphia, the Porter
return Judges excluded the whole of the N
Liberties, which gave Mr.. Ritner about 2,5Oc
votes. In Huntingdon county, they struck
out Morris township, which gave him about
COO majority. In Lycoming county, they
rejected Young womnns,own district, which
gnve him about $50 majority. More than
500 fraudulent votes can be proved in Berk
and in other counties enough to reduce Mr.
Porter into the minority, and cOnclusively
show that the whole election has been 81
tainted with fraud as to render 1t on act ol
Justice to the people 10 declare it void. The
Elective Franchise is n mockery, IT such
things ore permitted to pass unexamined.-
Honest men had better stay away from inc
polls, and let the gamblers have it oil thei'
own way, unless such vliany be prosecuted
and corrected.
II In returning the Senators elect, the Portcl
Judges in Philadelphia county refused II
count the votes of the Northern Liberties, SC
as to return Ingersoll to Congress and Their
County ticket. In the Huntington, Union
Juniata, Mifflin and Perry district, they threw
away Huntingdon County altogether, because
it gave 900 majority for the Rtner ticket
and they returned the Porter senators
II would be too tedious to enumeratc al
similar cases of fraud Enough has beer
stated, to give our readers some idea OF tho
late election.
We will further merely state, THAT Upo,
FULL CONSULTATION OF OUR FRIENDS, IL
HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO CON
TEST THE GOVERNORS ELECTION
