Election News.

Elections took place on the 9Th, in New
York, New Jersey, Michigan, and Wiscon-
sin.
In New York, Governor, Members of
Congress, and Legislature were cho>en.-
The contest for Governor is very close and
lies between Clark, Wing, and Seymour,
Soft democrat. We think Seymour is cleo
ted, and are not very sorry, as Clark not
only accepted, but couried abolition and free
negro support. The Wings have a majority
of Congressman and the Legislature, and
The State officers, with the exception OF Gov
ern0r.
In Illinois, the Wings have five out Of the
nine Congressman, and the Legislature. -
Douglas is essentially used up, on his own
battle-ground.
In Michigan, The Wings and Anti-Nebras-
kailes, have doubtless carried the day, by
large majorites.
In New Jersey, the Wings get four of the
five Congressman, while the opposition have
the best chance for the Legislature.
CENSUS OF Misunderstanding Cover
nor CUNNING, OF Nebraska, has issued a
proclamation notifying the people of Nebras-
ka, that an enumeration OF the inhabitants
will take place. The enumeration commen-
ced on the 3lst ut.
In his proclamation, Acting Gov. Cum
mings says, Sin no case will names be en-
rolled, except of actual and permanent resi-
dents cthe Territory" The temporary seat
Of Government is located at Omaha City
which is opposite Council Bluffs.

Nw- Col. Porter, editor of the New
York Spirit Of The Times, good judge
as we'll as great admirer of Horses,
speaks of the mep Shoe as follows, in
his journal of Saturday last: -.
/" Patent Elastic Horse iSAOe.-Our
attention has been directed to this new
and valuable invention. The Shoes are
made of superior Swedish Iron, with
deep incisions in the heel, into which
India-rubber is introduced in such a
manner as never to become displaced.
This makes the shoe perfect non con-
ductsr of heat, which is matter of very
great Importance; it also prevents the
hard concussion and jar which the solid,
unyielding Iron Shoe produced. And
that is not all great relief must ensue
by the elastic motion produced every
time the foot strikes the pavement,
plank, or hard road. The invention,
We understand, has been thoroughly
tested in Boston and vicinity, and many
testimonials of its great utility have been
received. 1t has received the approba-
tion of scientific men, and if its merits
are fairly developed, it is destined to
supersede the old fashioned method of
shoeing. We learn that it is to be shortly
introduced in New York, and we pre-
dict for it the favor Of all drivers of that
noble, but greatly abused animal, the
horse" .

MARTIN MERRrvALE, HIS p MARX,
is the title of a new serial novel, by
Paul Creyton, author of "Father Bright
hopes," "Burrcliff," sc. &C., published
by Phillips, Sampson & Co., Boston, in
semi-monthly numbers Of thirty-six
pages each, illustrated with engravings,
from origins.l designs, by Billings, and
other artists. To be completed in about
fifteen numbers, at l2 l-2 cents each.
The principal character in the story is
an ambitious youth from the country,
who, coming, poor and inexperienced,
into the city to earn livelihood and
to win name in literary pursuits. In
following his varied fortunes, the author
gives sketches of life and society drawn
with free hand, with touches of humor
and satire, and with vigorous strokes
portraying the tragedy of human passion.
No young author in America has had a
greater number of readers than Paul
Creyton." The works by which he is
most widely known, are read with delight
by persons of all classes and ages; for
his fidelity to nature, and the charm Of
everyday life which surrounds his pic
lures, appeal to every heart. His style
is at once easy and forcible an atmos-
phere of the present moral sentiment
pervades his writings; and his sympa.
thies are ever with the humble, the gen.
erous, and the true.
