Difficulties in the Territories.

Difficulties of a serious character have sprang up in
the territory of New Mexico, which threatens a war
between the American and Mexican races in that coun.
try, and when once fairly begun, il may he a war of ex-
trPation. A late account saws that a party of Ameri-
cans had been prohibited the right of suffrage at the late
election by the authorities who were Americans. A
fight ensued, and the Americans took possession Of the
polls. Afterward, the Mexicans increased their force,
attacked the Americans. killed one man, and made pri-
soners of the remainder. Another account has it that
only two Of the American party were entitled to vote,
the others being non-residents. The first report Gen.
sures the Governor. who is Of Mexican caste, inasmuch
as he did not interfere in behalf OF the Americans; while
the other version attributes the excitement to the ma
chinations of disappointed offce.seekers. gotten up with
a view of oustine the Governor. Be matters as they
may, the affairs of the territory are in a very unsettled
condition. The lives of two American citizens had been
taken. and apprehensions OF difficulties of the most Sc.
rious character were entertained.
The reported troubles in Utah are confirmed. The
Government provided by Congress for the Territory, is
totally dissolved. The accounts Of the seditious move
menfs of Gov. Brigham Young, are fully suhstantiated
At the coming session. Congress will find it necessary
to organize a new Government, The administration Of
which will have TO be entrusted to other than Mormon
Observation-Disclosures Gazette.

WISCONSIN Election.

The Wing papers have been claiming the result of the
recent election in Wisconsin as a victory on their side.
The Milwaukee Advertiser publishes the result, accom-.
panied by the annexed balance sheet, which shows pre-
cisely how much this victory is worth. The Democrats
have elected the following officers:
Timothy Burns, Lieutenant Governor; Charles d.
Robinson, Secretary Of State; Edward II. Janson
Treasurer of State; Experience Estabrook, Attorney
General; with a majority in the State Senate, and a
prospect Of a majority in the House also.
VIM. H. Ford, independent candidate for Superinten-
dent of Public Institutions, is elected.
AS an offset to this. the Wings have elected l.. j.
Farwell, Governor. He is an Abolition Wing, and re-
ceived the solid vote Of the Aboitionists throughout the
State.
The Advertiser, reviewing the result, says: "Here
VIC have given debt and credit, and i. is easy to see JUST
HOW MUCH REAL CAUSE the Abolition Wings have TO
boast. But we suppose the 'big gum will have to be
brought out. Let it roar. 1t will be the death-knell oil
Whiggery in Wisconsin. A powerful reaction will as
naturally follow, as il was unnatural to have expected
such a result. But let the combination by which it was
effected enjoy a laugh while they eau. They may not
have another such opportunity for the next quarter OF a
century dayton Empire.

tracing the Democratic family. And where disafec-
ton has been brought ahout, it has been done by a de-
parture from the original faith handed down by our Dem
ocratic fathers. Ambitious wire-workers, for selfish
purposes, have pulled some factious string, 10 crafty
either a revengelul spirit, or to try to retrieve their
sinking prospects. This was the case with Van Buren,

New JERSEY.

The Trenton True American, the able central organ
Of the Democracy, says Of the great victory on Tuesday
last:
There will be a Democratic majority Of about thirty
four on joint ballot in the Legislature. In the Senate.
which was a tie last session, we have a Democratic ma
jorify Of six. Three OF these being from original Wing
safely calculate upon holding the Senate, whatever poll.
teal change may otherwise happen, until 1855.
So far as we are able to ascertain, we will have a De-
mocratic majority of twenty-eight in the Assembly,
increase Of twenty-six upon our majority OF last session.
IL is scarcely necessary to say, that this result far ex-
eceds our most buoyant expectations, and that it is just
Ave times better than we calculated.

Giddings on church Matters.

Hon. J. r. Giddings, in a letter recently addressed to
the Jefferson (ohio) Democrat, thus defines his position,
as regards his staining IN the Church. The letter is
characteristic, quite. We quote:
"Your paper of the 2sd, containing "a extract from
the Free Presbyterian. has been read, and / notice you
call on me for explanation.
/ was a member Of the PreshyteTy at It's April session
A resolution separating our connection with the Gene
raj Assembly, New SCHOOL, was introduced and dis
cussed. I was then-of opiriou that we-bad better retain
our connection until the meeting of the General Assem-.
bly, in May, with the hope that some steps would be ia.
ken 20 free that body from the crimes of slave breeding,
and OF traficking in The image of God. l thought that
body wonld be brought to see the deep stigma. the tran
scendant iniquiiy OF holding fellowship with men whose
hands are actually stained with human gore. / felt that
we might, perhaps. be instrumental in bringing about its
reformation. But 1t has taken a position more firmly on
the hill Of oppression than that heretofore occupied: and
l have now no hesitation in saying that it is the dufy Of
every Presbytery, and every Church. TO withdraw all
fellowship from a religious association whose members
arc permitted to breed mankind for the market, and to
traffic in the bodies Of women.
The time is near at hand, indeed, has now come, when
the Church of Christ must purify itself from such Heav-
en- provoking crimes, or become a stencil in the nostrils
Of all good men.
Very Respectfully,
]. r. GIDDINGS.
