THE SELECTIONS TO-DAY.

To-day elections take place in three States
Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana. These are
important elections, and will go far to fix the
Political complexion of the next Congress.
These three States will this day elect fifty seven
representatives, and Pennsylvania and Indiana
swil elect legislatures on which will devolve the
duty of choosing two senators; the terms Of
service Of Senators Cooper and Petit having
expired.
Thus this 10th day of October viii be busy,
exciting, and eventful day in three important
States. The results of these elections are
anxiously looked to. Never before was the
issue so completely made up between the enc
mics and the friends Of law, order, and the
Constitution. Never before have dsorganizers,
abolitionists, and incendiaries mustered in such
formidable numbers, exhibited so perfect a
union, and menaced the country with such
calamitous results as at this time. Not many
hours will pass by before we shall be enabled
to present to our readers the results of these
elections, and we therefore shall not at this
time indulge in conjectural estimates. We
would simply admonish our readers to bear in
mind that the first accounts are almost always
| in favor of our adversaries. 1t is to be appre
hended, in consequence of the unusual excite
ment Of the public mind, that many unpleasant
if not bloody scenes, will take place at the
| polls in the more populous cities.
