KlNGwoon, Aug. Q, 1852:
Mr.. Editor:
The Magistrates lately c.
lected for the County of Preston, as
scmbled at the Court House of said
county to-day Monday and proceed
cd to the election of n presiding Just
ice. William II. Grimes, of West
Union, General B. Fairfax aud john
S. Murdoch were nominated as candi-
dates for the office. John S. Murdoch
received a majority of four votes! and
was declared to be duly elected. 1t
is to be hoped that our chief magis-
trate Murdoch will use all his intlu-
ence against the liquor traffic. He is
a man of good sound Judgment, and
we trust that he has seen enough OF
the evils of intemperance to discoun-
tenancc the efforts of some Of our cit
liens to establish recruiting offices for
his Satanic majesty among us.
The Democracy Of Preston were
favored with speeches from Messrs,
Kidwcll, Of Marion, and Clemens, Of
Wheeling. Va. And if we had never
heard of Franklin Pierce before-we
surely heard enough about him on
Monday. Waitman 7. Wiley, Of
Monongnlia, replied to the remarks Of
Messrs. Kidwcll and Clemens, in his
usual able manner. From all the
remarks that we heard, we firmly be.
lievo that no votes will be changed
by the speeches. 1t is an up hill bu'
siness to make democrats Of wings OIL
wings of democrats.
We heard from Mr.. Cheering, of the
Tunnel, that on Sunday night last a
large mass of stone gave way in the
Tunnel, and will prevent the cars from
passing through for several days
Since tho mail is being transported

almost incredible spced-nearly all
the time at the rate Of sixty miles all

Hoping soon to send you another
communication, we bring this one TO d

NEW YORK, August 8, 1852.
Mr.. Editor:
The steamship Hermann arrived
here, this morning, with 95 passen-
s sB5 G65AHs aes
Considerable satisfaction was OK
pressed amongst the mercantile inter-
csts of London, Hayre and Bremen
ut the regularity and rapidly with
which the passages of these steam
crs have lately been performed, as
compared with their former voyages.
The general elections throughout
Great Britain were not quite conclud-
ed when the Hermann left ; the re-
turns from some English and Irish
counties having to come in. Enough
was known of the general result to
render it certain that Earl Dcrby's
administration would not be able to
command a working majority in the
House of Commons.
Thegrowing crops in England were
generally favorable; and the weather
was magnificent. But in some instan-
COS blight and mildew had appeared
in the wheat; and there were renew
ed reports Of Tie potato disease in lrc-
land. fs.+g '.-r .-..
In the Money Market there was no
great change; and capital was abun-
dant-furtlcr arrivals of gold from
Australia having taken place. Rail-
way shares and foreign bouds had de-
clined a little from their previous high
prices; but the English funds were
pretty firm. ..t,
In the Liverpool Cotton Market
the demand continued moderate, and
prices were firmly maintained.
The accounts Of tho state of trade
in the English provinces show, on the
whole, greater activity than might
have been expected during the cleo
tions. At Manchester, there was no
alteration, but at Birmingham incrcas-
ed orders have been received, while
tho trade manifested continued firm
ness. The state Of tho woollen dis.
tricls was satisfactory; and in the
Irish linen market there was All i'm.
proved demand.
The principal news from France re,
lates to the tour Of Louis Napoleon to
Strasbourg, to inauguratc the opening
of the new railroad. If Louis Napo.
leon were really Emperor, no greater
state and magnifcencc could be adop.
tedto give eeiat to his progress through
the department. The li0aitcur Of
Paris states that tho President was
everywhere received with tho most
joyous aud enthusiastic acclamations.
Louis Napoleon reached Strasbourg
on tho 18th ult., where extraordinary
jetes and Examinations were prepared,
and where monster review aud sham
fight took place. Ho was to return
to Paris on the 21st ult.
There is at present good deal Of
activity at the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
The Marion aud tho Washington have
both been docked and oycrhauled;
aud the old Constellation is now being
thoroughly re.ftted up. The latter
vessel will be ready for sailing in a.
bout six weeks; but her destination is
