OLE BULL.-This great genius of the North had
full house at the Tabernacle last evening. He
will leave town this afternoon Gu route for Canada
He will only stop by the way to give concerts al
Worcester and Springfield. On his return from
Canada, he will probably give concert at Niagara
Falls, and one at Saratoga, where he will make .
short stop prior to his departure for Newport Al
this latter place Ole Bull designs to unbend and re.
lax his energies for while-or perhaps give them
new direction, in the way of composing some
purely original pieces in which the spirit Of our
New World and new institutions shall predominant
A genius like lie Bulls, inspired with the air OF
republican institutions, end with the originality,
vlgor, enthusiasm, and enterprise of our people
cannot fail to produce something worthy of SC

EXPECTED RESURRECTION AT NAUvoo. We daily
expect highly interesting news from Nauvoo A
crisis is evidently approaching, and the news Of
some bloody encounter between the followers OF
the prophet and the inhabitants of the neghboring
cities and villages would not surprise Exter-
mnation seems to be determined on by the latter
against the former. But that will be difficult bu-
slness to effect. The present position of Joe Smith
very forcby reminds us of that in which Mahomet
was placed when he laid the foundations of that
mighty nation and system OF religion which has
for long period resisted all the efforts of Euro
pean civilization and evangelism.

NEW YORK HERALD.


Ii a few days We will begin to receiveth elec-
ton returns of the great Presidential contest The
first elections take place in Pennsylvania and Ohio,
and the returns Of the election in Pennsylvania
WILL ofcourse be the first received, aud will begin
70 come upon US on Saturdayand Sunday, aud con-
tnue coming in for few days afterwards. We
have made every arrangement 10 procure the
earliest and most accurate returns, knowing their
great importance, and the intense anxiety which
will exist in the public mind respecting them.
Aud we are pretty confident that the public will
repose faith in our honesty, and believe US when
we say that we will make no attempt upon their
creduliiy, or on the creduliy of either party.
For some days past the party prints of this city
have been publishing statements in which they
declare that they have arranged expresses to run
from Pennsylvania with the returns, and that they
mean TO publish them at once. we beg the public
to understand that no dependence can be placed on
amy IF 'h"sS declarationsor any Of those expresses
or IN aay of the returns puorrsnsa Dartisa,s
newspapers Gross fabrications ,cia be issued from
me pITff<dn oVices OotH V0TtteS cunning Te""sy-
vania in order TO influence public opinion in this
city and in this State. We shall publish no ex-
tras with returns every half hour or two hours
but when we have intelligence, on which we can
ely implicitly, and of such character as to re-
quire immediate publication, we shall issue it in
order to relieve the public anxiety, and give cur
readers in town and country the full benefit Of our
enterprise and carefulness.
Therefore, let all beware of the party prints Of
both sides. The most atrocious talsehoods, in re-
lation to the returns will be published. The most
impudent claims will be put forth without scruple
But the only papers to be depended upon are those
which, like the Herald, are independent OF all par
ties and all factions, and all influences, except
gard for truth and honesty, and which, with every
disposition to do justice to all parties can tell the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,
regardlessiot every other thing the face Of the
earth.
