In the twenty-frst district ANDREW stuart Dem.) is

The despatch further states that the returns for
Supreme Judge and Canal Commissioner, as far as
received, indicate that the Democratic candidates
are elected by very large majority. The range of
this majority is stated at from 10000 to $1,000
intended, we presume to represent plurality, and
not a majority, as there were three tickets in the
field. It must, however, be the mere guess-work Of
somebody, as the returns are not in.
COLUMBUS, (OHIo) OcT. 13.--Returns sufficient have
been received by telegraph and otherwise show that
the State has gone by $1,000 to $4,000 majority for the
Democratic Supreme Judge Ills majority last year

elected by eight ten thousand majority. Six Wing

The Telegraph brought US no reports from Penn

this paper to press We have, therefore, additional
returns from only seven or eight counties, which
are gathered from the Philadelphia Ledger Of yes
stated in round numbers, clearly showing that they
are not given with precision. On comparing them
with returns from the counties as published in
the Democratic paper at Harrisburg, we found them
to disagree in some cases from one to two hundred
votes. We give them, however, as we find them in
the Ledger, although the report in the Harrisburg
"Union" is most favorable to the Wings. The lat

GOLD DIGGING IN AUSTRALIA.
Correspondence Of The Commercial Advertiser

LONDON SEPTEMBER %, 1852
Since the last packet have had arrivals of gold from
Australia TO the amount Of about 1880 900 sterling but
later news the vessels by which il was brought hav

advces via India by the overland mail extended to the
end Of July Further intelligence is therefore, still look

doubt is entertained that the statements incidentally
given in the last accounts of the yield of gold at Mount
Alexander being nearly equal TO 100000 50 600
per week is perfectly 1t known that before
the approach of the rainy the miners had been
lively engaged for long time in heaping up earth from
the most prolific spots, to be ready for washing and

ply of water obtained the results would be magn

quenty not owing much to dstrust Of the partial in
formation already received the curiosity that prevails
to ascertain whether the rate of increase which
ported to be taking place week by week is still going
1t appears that in the four weeks from May the 28h to
June the 10Th the yield augmented in steady progression
from SO 600 los 900 ounces each show

In short time great additions to the population might

if the gross yield is So 600 per week. the average to
each must be 800. Such product incredi-

OHIO.

What is the prospect in Ohio p is
question anxiOusly propounded in Political
circles, and generally answered as feeling
or prejudice may dictate. The organs of
Sham Democracy assert that there is no
question in the premises-that the nomi-
nation of Hale at Pittsburgh has settled
the business-that the former Wing ma
Jority on the Connecticut Reserve will be
thrown away on Hale and Julian-and that
Pierce will carry the State by 10000 ma
Jority. Having thus fixed matters to their
liking, they decline further discus sion.
The Wings, on the other hand admit
that the nomination of Hale is against
them that it will draw of and sluander
a large vote naturally and additionally
with us, cutting down the old Wing ma
jority on the Reserve from 10000 to very
much less than that amount-and that we
shall lose some votes throughout the State
on Free Soil grounds. But they say that,
not only is the State naturally Wing by
some five TO ten thousand majority, but
that there are several thousands of her vo-
tiers, both Americans and Irishborn. who
personally admire and love Gen. Scott, and
Will vote for him in defiance of their for
mer party associations. On these and
similar grounds, they expect to carry the
State in November by u moderate but
decisive majority.

THR PATROON TITLES

Judge HARRIS, of the Third Judicial Dis
trict of our State, has decided, after pa-
tient and thorough investigation of the
Manor Titles involved in the legal contro-
versies between the Van Rensselaers and
their tenants, that those Titles were not
originally valid, at least not to the extent
of the claim, but have generally become so
by acquiescence and peaceful possession.
His conclusions are as follows:
l. That at the time the Colony was surrendered
to the English by the Dutch, in l66i the heirs Of
the FIRST PATRON had Just claim under the pledge
given by the but n charter Of PATRONS 10 a tract
OF land extending eight miles upon each side Of
the rlyer and back from the river reasona Die dis
lance for the convenient use Of actual occupants.
= That there was no Just claim for a grant Of
the extrayagsnt character which the Donegan pat
eut presents. Such grant can only be account
ed for by the subs HIency OF the Colonial Gov
eminent and the political troubles which then agi-
tated the parent country.
3. That the grant was made in trust for all the
heiIs OF HI an Van Rensselaer,, the first PATRON.
ard the subsequ grant 10 hiliian, the son Of
JeIemas, IN l.Oi could not operate 10 divest
those trusts. lie sill held the premises Don
the same trusts specified in the patent Of 1855.
But whether those trusts were ever satisi ID or
not, is question not in soived IN this action. 10
either the title Of the plaintiffs would be d.
vested, il the grant ITSELF was valid.
That the provisions Of both patents, that OF
l6S5 and that Of 1904, whereby manorial priv.
leges and franchises were conferred upon the lord
OF the manor, were in express violation of the es-
tablished law, not only in England, but Of this
colony and for this reason, both grants were lie
gal and void.
;. That the act Of 1921, passed uponsthe ac-
c. sson of William and Mary o the crown of En-.
gland for the purpose Of confirming certain grants,
&c, had no application to these patents. Ii was
apoltieal act, having references exclusively to the
polItlcsl troubles through which the country had
Just passed.
o. That the mere voluntary payment OF Quit

h,rr;nr the right Of the people. Nor ls there, IN
this case, any evidence OF such comnutation
NJ the Quit rent under the act OF lSOl, as amounts
10 a release OF the peoples right. There Is, IN
fact, no legal evidence Of the payment either oil

interupted period Of forty years, under the manor
or title the statute of limitations, independent OF

Anpesls is legal bar to an acton by the people,
In this action, therefore Judgment must be
rendered in favor ofthe plaintiffs.
We wish those who have so much
10 say in denunciation of the Anti
Renters of the Manor Counties would
make themselves acquainted with the real
matter in dispute, and learn rhy 1t Is that
there is an Ambient controversy. Let
the cowardly ruffians who prowl about

Memorial Titles and the Feudal exactiOns
based upon them.
