ONE VoTE 1--WE find the official returns
of Montgomery county---a county that did
nobly in the recent contest---that one of the
Representatives and Prosecuting Attorney,
both Democrats, were elected by one major
ity each. Here is further u~nmistakable ev,
idence as to the Importance of one vote. Let
Democrats ponder well over this, and never
fail to vote, unless some ungoyernable obsta.
Gle should intervene.

Result in California


The steamer Cherokee brings dates from
San Francisco 10 the first Of October. Re
tu1ns Of the late election Cor Governor had
nearly all been received. The majorides
for the Democratic State officers and mem
hers Of Congress range from one thousand
to Ave thousand. Hon. John Bigler, for
Governor, has fifteen hundred of a majority
in the State, and Messrs. Marshall and M
Corole, Democrats, are elected to Congress
by heavy majorites, The entire vote Polled
is $4,000, and every county gives a heavy
majority. Mr., Marshall was to leave for
Washington on the 4th of October. Mr.. NJ
Corcle would be detained some time by sick
ness.
A terrible fight occurred at Chagres just
before sailing of the Cherokee, between the
natives and American hoatmen. The Amer
leans were beaten and fled, when the natives
turned and beat every American in their way
Fifteen or twenty passengers from Califor-
MIA on their way to the steamer we're driven
back; five are known to have been killed
The other passengers fed, taking refuge in
the houses, which they barricaded. They
finally got on board the Cherokee, through
the courtesy of the Commander of the Brit
lish steamer, who took them off in his own
boat. The specie was also taken off in the
British boats.

THE SOUTH AND CUBA.
FROM rHr c1sc1ssAr1 GAZETTE.

+ +
We have no evidence of the existence Of a
stronger feeling in favor Of reyolu,ionizing Cuba
and annexing it to the United States in the South
ern States than there is in the Middle and Western,
and in those of the extreme North and East. Il is
rue that more violence has attended the excitement
at New Orleans than in the more northern cities,
but we do not believe that this violence had its orr
gin or was in any considerable degree influenced
by attachment TO the "peculiar institutions " Of
the South, or to slavery any where. Il may be
traced to other and very satisfactory causes. The
young adventures who unfortunately fell into the
hands of the Captain General of Cuba had banded
themselves together in New Orleans and embarked
there for the Island leaving behind relatives friends
and connexions. This is true, though much ,he
largest portion Of these adventures were from the
North, who had gathered into that city as to an
appointed place Of rendezvous.

Il E.
! It has long been affirmed that secret treaty ex-
lists between Great Britain, France, and Spain,
guaransying the latter The permanent possession
OF her Yves. India possessions in every contingency.
This circumstance would give sill greater gravity
10 the European bearings Of the Cuba question.
But a. yet graver embarrassment lies in the GER
tanty that the question Of her admission into the
Union when il once assumes practical shape,
will excite the most fearful agitation and discord in
our own midst. To the United States, the subject
is fraught with vastly more domestic than foreign
danger. There will be time enough to measure
the magnitude Of this danger when the establish
ment Of Cuban Independence makes its coming in
evitable, Meantime we rejoice that our Adminis-
tration is sparing effnrts to fulfil our National
obligations. The energetic action that il is now
called upon to take, conflicting as il does with the
symps,hies and wishes Of large numbers Of Ameri-
ci'izens. is indeed no easy nor grateful task
blu. is task in the faithful execution of which
they will be cheered by the consciousness that they
are bat tedeeining their sworn engagements, and by
the appreciation Of every real patriot who has honor
enough TO be sensitive to the priceless worth Of
stainless public faith.
