DIED..

In this city on Tuesday Evening last, Andrew
}. McCauley, aged 30 years. He was the only
child of his widowed mother; young man of ex-
ceent moral character; of an afectionate disPos<
tion; who promised to become useful as an in
teIligent Physician and an industrious member of
society. This heavy bereavement to his family
and friends is meltowed by the recollection of the
manner of his departure from this sub!unary scene.
After sickness Of 20 days, of bilious fever, du
ring which time his mind had been beautifully
exercised on the subject ofreigion, he died in the
triumph of the Christian faith, expressing an as
surance of blessed Immortality.

The coon Mass Meeting which aOas TO have

of some two or three hundred, has been set down
by very intelligent correspondent of ours as one
OF the most decided failures that has ever occurred

" The Wings had boasted that there would be
at least 600 present. A great parade was made
over the "eminent speakers" who were N he in
attendance; but after all, the Meeting dwindIed
down to two or three hundred, and the eminent
speakers" were represented by Gen DocLeru -

Make room for GEORGIA =!

The Charleston Mercury of last Saturday says !;
" We had returns enough yesterday to make it
morally certain that the democrats h0re carried
Georgia. Reports received in the City from 66
counties make the democratic majority 124i. In
the counties at the last governors election,
the Whig majority was 37l8, making democrat
ic gain of 4959t of the Congressman the Wings
have three-Poe, Stevens and Toombs, and the
democrats three--Haralson, Lumpkin and Cobb.
Two districts are in doubt" Had the election
been by general ticket, as it was before il was
gerrymanderd by the coons, the democrats would
have carried every member Of Congress. The
vote of Georgia may be set down as certain for
Polk and Dallas
Both these States, let it be borne in mind, voted
for Harrison in 1910, and are therefore so much
clear gains from the coons

prudent to forbear doing more than giving the re.
ceived returns until now, when we can announce
to our Headers, as we do with sincerely heartfelt
satisfaction, that it is reduced to certainty that
Francis r. Skunk, the democratic candidate, has
heen elected Governor Of Pennsylvania. The
majority will be upwards of three thousand, and
cannot be told with accuracy for several days yet
The same paper says that the flag and Bible
stories raised by the coons against MIR. Skunk,
diminished his majority; and that in Philadel-
phia, where Gen. Markle's majority was 5000
Henry Clay cannot, in any event. command more
than fifteen hundred The State of Pennsylvania
