NAME

The fcGcraSits have elected II members Of the
Senate and the democrats TO- The fideraiiss have
also elected members of Congress, the democrats
? and in the two remaining districts there is no
choice. The character Of the House will be deter
mined by the elections yet to take place.
The election Of Governor rs still undetermined,
The frdcralists claim the election of Kent aud the
democrats claim the election of Fairfield. Our prI-
valo opinion The subject after examining the re-
turns Of both parties with great care and attention,
is, that they not both elected, at least by the
people
The augusta Age, however, says that the num-
her of scattering votes is not enough, in all proba-
bility, TO defeat Gov FuirlicId's recollection, with
an honest count,
Our papers say with the utmost confidence that
the vote of Maine will be given for Mr., Van Buren,.
There is little doubt but that it can be, if the de-
mocrolic party do their whole duty.
The following extracts are from that able paper,

but the day of their mOUrBiRg will come, this time

redeem their honor in November next; and they
will improve the opportunity all the better for their
partial adversely now. Last Monday, they were

the peaceful, the gentle, the pure aad the holy;
and we confess, canddy, that we have little pa
tence with those who mar that idea by unseemly
and unnatural conduct. Who LOVES such .fe-
mates as Fanny Wright or Madam Royal! Who
can? Why not? Because they are out of their
sphere. continued contact with the world de-
stroys the decacy, the shrinking, the indescriba-
BILE modesty, like PRESENCE, in which per-
feet woman lives, moves and has her being, and
out of which she is capable of exciting in man, the
same feeling with which he would look upon Il
fallen angel.
Woman has her sphere, man has his The sight
OF Hercules carding wool, and the Lydan damsels
cutting his ears with their slippers, is not scene
more ridiculous than that of woman wandering
about at indiscriminatc public political meetings,
submitting to what always occurs on those occa-
sons, the boId familiar gaze, and the loose remarks
of the multitude. We had always supposed that
right-mnded women would shrink from such things,
and we think so now.
These things we learned from our own dear
mother, in the little time God saw fit to spare her
to her children; and may her mild eye never rest
upon us again in our dreams, if the insoence and
misrepresentation of men who treat women as
piece of horse-esh, to be tralliccd in as his inter-
est may d. ate; or as creature existing only for
the qualification of his animal passions, coax or
compel US to do her the great wrong of substitute
ing, as the idea of a true mother, sister and daugh-

WIN. IL. CGAyFORD'S OPINION or
GEN. Ill 4 RRISON.

We call attention to the following extract fiom n
letter. written by Mr.. Crawford from Paris, in
May, lSli, to distinguished citizen of Gcorgia.
The opinion entertained by Mr.. Crawford, of
Gen HARRISON was the same that was entertained
by the leading men of all parties during the war.
81 feel great socitudc in relation to the further
prosecution the war. Where are the generals
who are TO meet the able and experienced comman-
ders who have distinguished themselves in the
Peninsula for the last six years. Is it. Wilkinsoni
Is it Harrison,
have heard with surprise and much pain tina,
Harrison has been appointed acknowledgement of
the army. ! have examined with attention all his
letters and official statements which he has written
since he entered the army, and Iconiess that every
thing which has fallen from his pen, savors of the
iow demagoguc rather than the patriotic, engh-
tened and skful general
sit has appeared to me, that from the moment
he entered the army he placed his hopes of pro-
motion upon the influence of the Western people,
and not upon his talents, or the military services
which he had rendered, OF expected to render.
"With high respect and consideration,

WHAT ARE WE COMING TO?

Well may this question be asked by the editor
of the Rutland, w. Herald. That paper relates
on good authority that Gov Van Ness in answer
to question recently put to him at White Hall,
said he believed Mr. Van Buren, would be elected
that General Harrison might possibly get IL ma
jorlly of the electoral votes 6ut il he did he wOuid
not be sggGef TO take The presidential chair!
CIaremOm Eagle.
The assertion of the Herald, copied by the Ea-
gle, is a regular federal falschood.
The Eagle man gets little historical. Hear HIM
"What is the meaning of these dark insinuatons
these damnable inuendoesi Have we in truth
among US spirits like the Dantons, Marns and Rob

NEW YORK SPEAKS!

iB'The Journal of Commerce publishes call
for PUBLIC MEETING in New York CITY, at
the Merchants Exchange, signed by THREE HUN
DRIED MERCANTILE FIRMS and TRADERS,
WITHOUT DISTINCTION OF PARTY, The
notice calls on those 'who approve of the measure
of the Administration, and the reelection of the
Present Chief Magistrate" The Journal says:
''many other names are ercluded' from the call,
for rant Of room
The Federal New York Star, seeing that it is all
over with whiggery in the Empire State, pours out
its vengance and wrath upon the Merchants, be-
cause they have the independence and honesty to
sign the above call, pedging themselves to sustain
Martin Van Buren,, and his honest, faithful and
patriotic Administration.
