and Graham club, large and enthusiastic meet
ing assembled last night in the Council Chamber

journed to meet again on next Monday night, at
o'clock, for the purpose Of electing the balance
Of the officers, and TO adopt the constitution.
The meeting last night was spirited and enthu-
siastic--seventy enlisted under the banner of

Breast TO breast maintain the ground,
And let your decide your foes confound.
All persons friendly to the election Of old Cool

Reid, the present Democratic governor, was
elected in 1850 by majority of 2,774 votes over
Manly, Wing. The contest is now between Reid,
the present able and popular Democratic incum-
bent, and Kerr, Wing.
In 1S4S the Wing governor was elected by a
majority of 800 votes, and soon after General
Taylor received the vote of the State bya majority
of 5000, The same increase over the Wing
gubernatorial vote is now confidently relied upon
We append al the returns that have come to
hand:
In one district Of Robson county Kerr gains
10 votes. Reds majority in the whole county
in 1850 was Ga.
In new Hanover county Reid has majority Of
about 800 votes being gain for Kerr of up
wards of 100 since 1850
In Cumberland the majority for Reid over Kerr
is Cos, being Democratic loss Of l03.
In Halifax county it is reported that the Wings
are all elected, and Kerr's gain is 100.
In Northampton county, we are informed the
Maine law has been advocated by the Sons of
Temperance, to which society the Wing cand-
dates generally belong; and they have all suffered
in consequence.

An Incident OF the Confia grafton of tn
Steamer Clay.

Steamer Clay.
Samuel Steele, school teacher Of Albany, aged
20 years, was on the steamer when she took fire,
and was one of the one or two hundred who must
take to the water or be consumed with fire. He
saw many Of his fellow-passengers jump into the
water, struggle for a while, and sink to rise no
more. He was one of the last four that left the
boat. He jumped into the water feet first, and
went down as far as his weight and impetus could
carry him. When he came to the surface, he
found that he could swim, although he had not
made q stroke that way for 40 years. He pulled
away toward the boat, and, when he came under
meath the guard, he seized a rope suspended from
it, and not likely TO be soon reached by the fire.
Soon after he was surrounded by perishing women,
who held on to him with grasp of desperation.
Several who could not reach him held on to those
who did, and thus were they suspended in long
string.
In about three hours. rs the time seemed to
him, people came with boat and took them of,
three or four at time. Mr.. Steele thinks that
Is persons were saved by that rope.
When he was about stepping upon the shore, a
boatmau said to him, there is your cane Sure
enough, there was his gold-headed cane, which
had been presented to him by his son in the last
hour of his mortal life He had unconsciously
held on to it through his perilous struggles
