The first, and even second batch of returns from this State, look very favorable to the Whig cause. Returns from 90 to 40 counties in the NY Courier and the Express show such whig gain, as if cor rect, would give the State to HRR1soN by small majority On the other hand, the returns in the Van Buren papers shoU an equally large gain on their side. But both sides coming through New York, where aH unusually excited election is going on, are to be received with many grains of allowance Be- sides which, the whigs have been so often imposed upon by the returns from that State. that ,pe always look upon them, in party papers, with suspicion We believe Old Tip is more popular there, as we'll as every where, than any local candidate-hence have some .taint hopes for even Pennsylvania

The Late East India S9uadron.-The
United States frigatc Columbia and
corvette John Adams, which arrived at
Boston on the 18th ultimo were absen,
from the United States little more
than two years, having left Hampton
Roads on the 9th of May, 1888. Dur
ing that time they visited Arabia, India
Ceyion, Sumatra, China, the North and
South Pacific Islands aud South Amer
lea on the East and West. the voy
is said to have been one Of great variety
and interest. A number of missionary
stations o. the American Board Of +.
Missions were visited, and the benevo-
lent purposes of the missionaries en-
couraged by the general commentator
and approval which the officers of the
squadron manifested towards the miss
ionares themselves; who, in turn, every
where rendered to the officers wei
come and hospitality--and the mission
aries, on visiting the ships. were always
received by the officers with attention
and courtesy. Midshipman Morris.
attached to the John Adams, was left at
the sandwich Islands, in one of these
missionary families; and being in a
decline, and soothed by the kind ca
resses of this family, he breathed his
last among friends, though afdr from
kindred. He now sleeps in that love-
ly Isle of the Seas, instead of coursing
the deep tides of the ocean. DIR. and
Mrs Judd were the friends with whom
young Morris were left, and he died
with resignation that springs from a
hope that his spirit was reconciled tc
God through Redeemer.
We understand that history of thu
cruise, embracing considerable Incl.
dent, both Of a political and religious
nature, with scenes Of private interest
have been prepared by the Rev. MIR.
Taylor, ofthe Episcopal church, who
accompanied the force as chaplain OF
the squadron.
Though there seems to have been ar
unusual mortality among..the crews o
the two vessels, we learn that ever,
practicable attention was given them
and il is believed tina; the impression
which the squadron left IN the East
and among the Islands, has been most
crcditable to the nation and to the cause
of morals and religion, IN the genera
character il has sustained while abroad
The ships were admired for their re-
spactive beauties, as fine models oil
their class, and for the neatness and or
der in which they were invariably pre-
erved We wish our squldrons mly
always bring home as good report as
we have reason TO believe will be Civ.
en- of this interesting cruise around the
wofld.-JJur. Com.
