The general result furnishes us with three
valuable conclusions. First, that the Seward
aptislavery fusion in New York has exploded;
second, that there can be no reconciliation be-
tween the hard and soft divisions Of the late
democratic party upon the basis Of the admins
tration; and third, that the Know Nothings
have not joined the Northern wing anti slavery
coalition, but are fighting their own battle as
an independent affair. In other States, they
have Frustrated the administration and the
democrats supporting it; in New York, the ad-
ministration being already extinguished, they
bavepreferred to annihilste the Seward coalition.
And thus they have cleared the track for 1856.
A living terror to all the old parties, party
hacks and Presidential aspirants for Baltimore
nominations, the Know Nothings, though they
have lost their Governor, have exhibited q
balance Of power, here as elsewhere, which
renders Kitchen Cabinet arrangements and Bal
timore Conventions alike subservient to the
DEGREES Of the order.
But while the Know Notbings themselves
have broken the backbone of the Seward coal-
ton, and prostrated the administration forces

In a general view of the results Of our late
New York election, it is matter of but tenn
porary and secondary Importance whether
Clark, Sey mour or Ullman is the Governor.
The paramount result and the great moral of
the division Of the popular vote are to be found
in the overwhelming popular majority of Sey-
mour, Bronson and Ullman, combined, over the
allied anti-slavery forces Of the Seward coali-
ton.

has mustered less than onc-third Of the popular
vote Of the State. This is the result which de

This is the great moral Of the election = the
crushing anti Seward reaction in the very camp
Of the arch agitator-which demoralizes his

for the triumphal entry Of new, sound and

Village Ordinances.

Heretofore so little regard has been paid to
some of the Ordinances of our village. that many
of our citizens not aware of their exist
ence. At a meeting OF the Board of Trustees.
however, on Thursday evening last, the subject of
enforcing the Corporation Laws was considered,
and the preliminary steps taken for carrying them
into effect. The Ordinance relating to Guisances
and cleanliness at this season of the year, should
be particularly regarded Thus far, since the
commencement OF hct weather, our village has
been unusually free from sickness, and we have
no doubt this TACT has tended to create remiss-
ness on The part of many who have entirely too
much filth about their premises. Had the Board
the power to raise tax for such purposes, they
might, perhaps, provide for the removal of NUS
ances at public expense but such is not the
case they have 10 resort to the only power given
them-that of compelling persons TO remove
everything of unhealthy nature from their
premises. Mr.. STEPHEN PRIpEAux, Sen, has
been appointed by the Board to examine the
different localities in town, and notify all whose
premises require il, that a cleaning must lie i'm
meiiately effected. We hope, for the health of
the village as wen the comfort Of our citizens
that the Ordinance for this object may be prompt
ly and cheerfulIy complied with, and that no
necessity will arise for forced obedience TO its
requirements. Mr.. SAMUEL c. IyEs has been
appointed special Police officer, to attend TO the
enforcement of the various Ordinances, with in
structons to attend particularly to those relating
to selling liquor on the Sabbath, the burning Of
rubbish and frecrackers and the discharge of
pistols and other fire. earns in the streets. We
presume that notice of the intention of the
Board 10 have the Ordinances lived up TO, will be
all that will be necessary to secure observance
OF these requirements, since all must see the ne
cessty of such a course, yet should any be so
short sighted as TO refuse 10 obey them, they may
expect at once TO feel the force of Law and jus
tice. | f. MEssMoRE, Esq, has been employed
as Counsel for the Incorporation.
Since the above article was penned, one person
has been arrested and fined $40. for violation OF
Ordinance relating TO Saloons and Groceries, in
selling liquor on the Sabbath.
