The Court delivered a LONG opinion, sum

the judgment Of tins Court, in the case of
Gaines against Patterson. in lS49, void, be-
cause obtained by collision. 1t aifirms the
decree of the Circuit Court in the present suit
and diSmisses the bill. This is the opinion
of Justices Catron, Curtis. Grier and Nelson
Justice WAYNE dissented from the majority
in a very long opinion, declaring that the ev-

ought never to have been admitted; that the
proof of legal marriage between Mrs Gaines

Gaines was entitled to the property in suit
both as heir at law and by the will of 1918
which had been destroyed.
The motion to modify the decree declaring
the Wheeling Bridge nuisance, was decided
as follows: constructions to navigation mus,
be removed without regard to cost to those
who have created the obstruction, but the
Court will not impose unnecessary expense
in such removal" The Court was OF the o.

testing how much Of truth their predictions con.

We regret TO learn that our able and talented
Elector, Mr.. TUcxEE, will be disqualified from
speaking for a few days, and possibly during the
whole canvass. By having overtaxed his power
of endurance, he has seriously injured himself,
and is now laboring under a hoarseness and aE.
fiction Of the lungs, which would almost leopard
ize his life TO discharge the duty which his whole
heart and inclination suggest. He has the sym.
pathy of his friends, and even,of his political enc.
mics, for no District of the State has had a more
able, honorable and courteous ~elector, who has
discussed principles and repudiated the mere
Slang OF political warfare, than ] RAND. TUCKER.
We hope lie may speedily recover from the
Hfliction under which he is now laboring, and
that his clarion voice may soon again be heard,
rallying TIE Democracy to a glorious issue and
overwhelming victory.

WORTHY OF NOTE.

1t is worthy. of note that twenty,seven ofthe
thirty-One States are at present Democratic.
-Thatlhe latest elections in the several
States give a Democratic majority in Congress
of over so.
-That the popular vote at the same cleo
tions, indicates a Democratic majority of over
100000.
THAT It the Democrats had been as well
united in 1875, as they are now, they. would have
carried The three great States by an aggregate
majority of nearly 10000.
-TThat the Democratic party is united to a
man, upon the nominees. And
+That ahe Wings weak at the start, are
reduced stillweaker by the most nnexampIed de-
lection in A5eis ranks, The Union over.
These thiDgssare worthy Of note. When you
catch a Scott manfin a state of inordinate inla.
tion-iust remnd him of them.

PENNSYLVANIA.

~
The Democracy of the old Keystone feel per-
feet confidence in carrying the State for PIERCE
and KtSe. The following, we copy from the
Union of yesterday
PIrrsBuRG, Oct. Tone ofthe most decided
| political demonstrations ever made in Western
Pennsylvania occurred yesterday at Greensburg.
AT least $4,000 Democrats were assembled from
all parts of western Pennsylvania from Allegha-
ny county alone between twelve and fifteen hum
dred delegates attended. By noon every street,
lane, and alley of that ancient borough wers
crowded by the masses: The delegations still
continued to pour in until about 2 o'clock, when
the meeting wassconvened at Bunker Hill Grove,
in the neighborhood of the borough. The inn
mense multitude was addressed from two differ
ent stands, in English and German. James
I Clarke, of Indiana county, was President, and
about sixty of the most Influential Democrats of
the Stale acted as Vice Presidents. The meet:
ing was addressed by Governor Barbour, of Va,
in a mastery speechfof two hours, followed by
James Buchanan, YIN. Wilkins, and Wilson
McCandless. From the German stand, Samuel
Fleming, Democratic, candidate. for the Legisla-
ture of Allegheny county, and Messrs. Roth,
Jehle, and others, made eloquent appeals to the
German Democracy, who wereassembled in great
numbers. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed,
and several fine bands enlivened the proceedings.
At 6 O'Clock a procession was formed, and march.
ed Into Greens6urg. Some oflhe delegations re-.
turned home by the evening train, but many re-
NAMED to attend meetings at night in different
OaFts- ofthe town.

PRESIDENTIAL CALCULATIONS.

p ~ ~ ~ - 49,. - N.-- .
The New York Herald publishes tables ofelec-
tion results throughout the Union for the past
thirty. years, land saws that, according to ali ia
tional Conclusions, founded on facts and on naIu-
val inferenres-iL wound appear that Gen. ScniI
has not the slightest cha Uce of reaching the Pre-
sidency, and that all the military popularity at
tribufed- TO him is an utter and unqualified absur-
dity in the history of PUlitics in this county,
Our elections have been decided by other causes
and s~pringsthan those arising from military pop
uiariIy, ard even the military renoWn OF Jat K.
son, HARRISON and Taylor, would never have e!e.
vated-any5Ofthem toIIc Presidency without The
cUmbinatiOnrO of other, political, social, CONNER
cial and financial, causes, concurring in those
particular times and junctures. The free soil
vote, bereft of its Van Burcn influences, which
gave it a fdct!Ous Importance in 1913, will be re-
duced to its natural Dimensions. The contest
will be similar in its general features and char
aCleT TO those which have marked the history of
the country for the last twelve years but il will
be the last contest between the Democratic and
Wing parties under these particular applications.
If the Democratic party he triumpianl-as every
figure seems to indicate it will-lhe WING party
will sink into total extinction. Hereafter il will
be ruled in conjunction with the abolition sec
ton, and William III. Seward, defeated in carry
ing General Scott into the Presidency, will fall
back on his original principles of agnation, abb
litionism and demagoguism, out Of which he
sprang, and by which he has reached his present
position. fE
Who is.to be the next President !? The figures
of thirty years past indicate that General Pierce,
by the. present combination and complication OF
Scott, by a probable plurality of ninety-thrce
votes in the several States, and one
hundred and eighty:two electoral votes in the
Union.-RichmOnd ENQUIRER.
