1T is DONE.

The election is over--the die is cast
the fate Of the candidates is decided, and
we have nothing now to do but to wait pa.
tien,Iy until the result is ascer,ained. We
long ago predicted tina, Gen. Taylor would
be elected, and we believe that prediction
has been fulfilled, for we are satisfied tina,
q large majority of the citizens of the Uni

since determined TO put their seal of dis.
appreciation upon the course pursued by
the present party in power. On Tuesday

good resolve. by casting their votes fo

Omo.--The total vote given in the late
election for Governor Of Ohio, was $780,.
9s7. In the Presidential election of ls44
the total vote was 1924, $3.50 Of which
was for the Abolition candidate. In the
election for Governor just before the Pres
idential election of 1914, the total vote
then given was 235,253--not including
some $4,000 votes given for the abolition
candidate. This would show an increase
on the Presidential vote Of say, 65,cGO
votes. A like increase at the election las,
Tuesday, on the Governors vote, would
show popular vote in the State of 36l,'

zens did not vote las, month.

CONDITION OF THE CoUNTRY.-The Bal.
timore American, speaking of Mr.. Buchan.
ans late par,izan speech, says, it may not
be known TO Mr.. Buchanan that at this mo.
ment the country is suffering from finan-
cial pressure fast approaching in severity
TO that which preceded the general bank
suspension in 1889. Men in business know
il, If the Secretary of State does not. And
we may undertake to express the opinion
that, If the disastrous effects of the Sub
Treasury upon the currency and business
of the country are not appreciated now,
the election of Gen. Coss, should the PEG.
pie determine to continue the present sys.
TEN, will demonstrate those effects in an
unmistakeable manner before he will have
been six months in office.

has never replied to the letter. 1. was un.

Missouri MINEs.-The ST. Louis Organ
has lately had some very valuable articles
on the Maramec Copper Mines" of Mis-
souri, from which we make some extracts.
The Organ says "no other region, that is
equally rich in ores, combines so many ag-
ricultural advantages. and such proximity
to facilities for reaching market" These
accounts are evidently not given to aid any
private speculation. ut must not be sup.
posed. however. that these gentlemen have
. monopoly of the mineral lands. Thou
sands Of untouched acres full of ore, yet
remain there, and may now be entered for
a dollar and quarter an acre. The field
for speculation is not only wide and rich

ting. That il will occupied and improved
in very short time. can hardly be doubt.

ExPENsBs OF GOVERNMENT UNDER ALL I
the ADMINISTRATIONS take the fol-
lowing from the New Bedford Mercury:
! deem il important TO call your atten-
ton to the following exposition and statis-
tics Of expenses. Of our government, taken
from the journal Of Congress, for every
administration, commencing with George
Washington's and concluding with James
X. Folks. II will be found correct, with
the exception Of the expenditures under
President Folks administration, which are
probably under estimated at least some
$50 900, 000--il being stated on competent
authority that this Mexican War cost US
Two hundred and fifty Millions Of dollars,
nsteadI Of two hundred millions Of dollars,
which is the amount placed in the schedule
below. By giving Mr.. Polk the benefit of
$50 900, 600, still il will be observed, the in
crease of the expenses of government have
become tremendous.
What is very remarkable, yet true and
beyond contradiction, is, that every locofo-
CO administration has cost and taxed the
people ofihis Union vastly more than either
Of the Wing administrations. Thus il is
to be found, that the whole expenditures Of
VuS commencing WIN
Washngton's and ending with J. @ Ad-
ans, during period of forty years, land

oluiion, much Of them we're paid under
Washingtons government, and all the char
ges occurring in consequence Of the late
war with Great Britain, in Mr.. Madison's,)
the Locofoco governments, commencing
with Gen. Jackson's and terminating with
General Folks, period Of twenty years,
are run up TO the enormous sum Of Three
hundred and thirteen millions, sic hundred
and 6ty-tUo thousand, and foriy-seUen dol
lars, over and above the Wing governments
for forty years A sum sufficient 10 have
made internal improvements, deepening
harbors and rivers Of the West and South,
and building piers for the harbors on the
lakes and seaboard, to an extent that would
have been for all time TO come of immense
benefit TO our countiy-a sum sufficient to
have educated millions of poor children
and placed schoolhouses in every city,
town and village, and paid for teachers for
many years. 1t is of vital importance to
every friend of his country to probe this
subject to the bottom, and ask why is it.

diure ofnational treasure. Shall our hard

A Coon DAUGHTER good daughterl
There are other ministers of love more
conspicuous than her, but none in which a
gentler, lovelier spirit dwells, and none to
which the hearts warm requitals more Joy
fully respond. There is no such thing as a
comparative estimate of parents love for
one or another child. There is little which
he needs to covet, to whom the treasure OF
a good child has been given. But sons
occupations and pleasures carry him
abroad, and he resides more among temp
talions, which hardly permits affection that
is following him, perhaps over half the
globe, 10 be unmingled with anxiety until
the time when he comes to relinquish the
shelter OF his fathers roof for one of his
own, while good daughter is the steady
light of her parents house. Her ideal is
indssolubly connected with that of his hap
Ply Preside. She is his morning sunlight
and evening star. The grace, vivacity and
tenderness of her sex, have their place in
the mighty sway which she holds over his
spirit. The lessons of recorded wisdom
which he reads with her eyes, come 10 his
mind with new charm as blended with
the beloved melody of her voice. He
scarcely knows WEAKNESS which her song
doth not make her forget. or gloom which
is proof against the young brightness Of
her smile. She is The pride and ornamen,
of his hospitality, the gentle nurse of his
numberless acts Of kindness which
one chiefly cares TO have rendered because
they are unpretending, but expressive
proofs of love. .-as. l.s.
