THE DISAPPOINTED PARTY. The Wash

acknowledge defeat, is preparing, nevertheless,
TOR that unpleasant emergency. The following
is its language:
cit is too early yet to decide positively upon
the result. We have lost New York, Pennsyl-
vana, Delaware, and Maryland-perhaps New
Jersey But we have Uirtudlly carried New
Hampshire and Maine, and we cannot for mo-
ment doubt old Virginia. There cannot be a
doubt about the Buckeye State. The despatch
of last night from South Carolina is glorious
No one can yet positively predict the result.
"But come what may-wha tever the result
may be-we are determined to preserve our
equilibrium. If victorious, after one OF the
most severe and hard fought battles ever know n
under our constitution, we shall endedvOr to rear
our triumph with moderation and composure.-
We can look calmly on the battle field, filled as
it is with the clustering evidence of that dire
struggle through which we have lcdded, and
with a full consciousness of having done our

short time before his death, becoming frightiully
violent, and almost passing belief in the powers of

FATAL GuNN1G ACCIDENT. Dr. James

killed last week while cunning in the woods OF
that town. His body was found the next morn
ing. A double barrelled lowlng piece, unoaded,
was by the side OF the body and few rods dis
tant squirrel was found on the ground. The
charge OF the piece had taken effect in the head
the entire upper lip, with the front teeth, had
been carried away, and driven through the head,
producing instant death. 1t is supposed that
young Stark was in the act of blowing the smoke
from recently discharged barrel OF the gun, and
had the piece compressed to his lips, when the
other barrel exploded. A faithful dog watched
over the body, which it had partially covered with
leaves, and for some time would allow one to
