It is a remarkable fact, and one going to shew in very prominent relief the unpopularty of the mea- sures of Mir Van Buren, that in every state where re- cent state elections have been held in connection with the Presidential contest Gen. HARRISON has run considerably ahead of the local candidates for office, or rather MT. Van Bvren has run much behind them. Thus, in New-York, in every county so far as we have observed. land we have examined for the very purpose of ascerraining the fact> MT. Bouck, the candidate for Governor, and comparatively unknown. has run greatly ahead of the President of ths United States 7 This too in his own state. In the whole state, the majority MT. Bouck will obtain over Mir. Van Baren will be from to 5000 Does not this speak i trumpet tones the unworlhiness of the mar to fill high station in the government? It is just so iR Massa achusetts-Guv. Morton has obtained hund- reds more votes than MT Van Buren!|
 Er Whtn some four or five weeks since we pro. claimed through our columns our belief that the mini mum of MT. Van Buren's strength would he 4l, and his maximum Si voes s'me Of our friends laughed at ns and our opponents ritieued for our assurance Now, what has been the result and who has most cause for exnltation? The very states we pointed ont that would vote for Gen. Harrison and Mir. Vau Ruren, respectively, (excep. that Pennsylvania and Virginia have changed sides,) have done so Gan Mir. Van .Ruren receive more than the maximnm, sl Nd-hs utmost limit is 64 and the probability is that it will only reach 6O-lea wing for Gen. Harrison 234!.. We staked our reputation prophet. and a hnle money, upon tho result and we have sav- ed both.
 1r What says our New. Haven friend now-s he yet unwilling to give mp Georgia 2" and Louisiana |? We ready to receive the yelop boys pledged upon the issue, or will take bank rags" an equivalent, if easier to transmit
 Though the recent election has showed very con Cusively that Gen. Harrison sectional candi date--receivinQ he has done tEe votes of the ex- treme north and the extreme south-the atlantic and the wes,crn-ihe slaveholdng ns well as the free states-he result shows that he will he chosen with out the need of single vote south of the Potomac without the vote of single s!aveholdng state.

 This magnificent state, the home of one of the pur' est patriots and brightest ornaments of the age, has also done her whole duty. Her majority of 5000 in August is now rolled up to more than 9O,OoO. No To- cal contest entered into the struggle either here or m any of the southern states. It contest purely between lOcoloessm and the friends of the county Te1saeG&See.
 | This fine state, notwithstanding the roaring 9 he Lion e tAe HermLage,'' has shown that she can' not and will not live long under the influence of loco focoism.
