There seems to be no room to doubt that means
which every honest and law-abiding citizen must
regard with contempt and indignation were freely
used by the fedenalists TO carry the election.
The Courier and Enquirer the other day says:
"immedistely preceding the election, We received
letter from highly respectable source in Column
bia county, which asserted that Mr. Young had
promised 10 pardon the murderers OF Steele, and all
the anu-renters in prison, il elected governor.
We declined giving II publicity. Since then, we
have received another letter from the same gentle
man, from which we make the following extract:
al repeat what | wrote before the election, that
Governor Wright having positively refused to grant
any more pardons il reelected, Mr.. Young was APP
piled TO, and unhesitatngly promised # elected, to
grant the pardons asked for
ain addition to this the most positive declarations
have been made in different quarters, ia relation to
this matter, which have not been conuadcted by
any friend Of Mr.. Young" ~.
A great State carried in order to open the prisons
Of band of murderers and rioters!
Nor is this all. Disclosures are yet 20 be made
which will show that other expedients az proaigae
were resorted TO for the same end, and with too
much success. . .r
The fuss made by the fedeulists about the result
in Delaware, even supposing it to have any good
ground, is sufficiently cool in the fact now fully es-
posed that they have just carried this State by
pledge to prostitute in the most shameless manner
the pardoning power OF the executive.
Did the veto Of the harbor bill affect the election
in New York; The Niagara Cataract answers this
question conclusivey; "No, for in Erie county where
the veto most severely felt the true democracy
reduced the federal majority more than 500 from
1874"
Thus is another Of the federal ''causes" disposed
OF. To such an argument federal disingenu-
BUSINESS can furnish no reply.
The Alfred L. Kershaw spoken of by some
ofthe Washington letter writers in connexion with
the 5000, 900 loan, must be the same person who
was recently before the police Office here with one
John r. Townsend, on charge of having engaged
in fraudulent insurance business, or some such
swindle.
The last excitement in the fashionable circles is il
relation to the Yiennoise children. The two steam
ers have brought us each different story-one tina
the destitute and forlorn condition OF the youthful
Ggpanies, after their shpwreck in the Great Britain
had excited so much COMMUNICATION, that they woulC
not be permitted TO come out--the other that the,
have actually embarked, commiseration or not, OF
board Of the Yorkshire, which sailed on the 81 inst
So, Ito come or not to come" ID just now the alb
sorbing question; and until it is settled the war; tn,
tariff, anti-rcnt, the effect of the tariff on the
price ofsilks and calicoes, the wild beasts and the
unfortunate "aifair" up town, must be content with
scarcely passing thought.
The notabilities at present in town are, John @
Adams and family, en- route for Washington, ash
Allen McNab," of Caroline notoriety, and the ven.
cradle Ambrose Spencer.
The magnificent production of King John, al
the Park, has been thus far entirely successful and
undoubtedly will continue TO be so, amply repaying
the money and trouble expended by the management
and Mr.. Kean.
In the following paragraph from recent Penn
sylvanian, is another indication Of the ruin with
which the tariff is to overwhelm all manufactures
but especially iron-works:
"Nor ALL RUINED YEr-Our readers will have
obse rived In this paper advertisement for the sale
of an iron establishment in Hartford county, Mary
land, by a receiver. The works have been sold for
ST. 100, reserving the Of wood, coal stock and
iron ore, to complete the present blast This is con-
sidered fair sale, and does not look as if the new
tariff had destroyed the value Of welllocated and es-
tablished iron-works, as those in question are"
The city papers, (nearly a,) with one accord, are

the conductors owe on explanation, which will show
that the line was not controlled on the recent ar
rival of the steamer by -four spectators.

Mrs. Child, for her 'tgenial enthusiasm;'' but
the types would not let me, but made me talk of
general enthusiasm;" which, like most generali-
ties, amounts to very little. ..
