WHO IS GOVERNOR 2

If nothing gives way in some unexpected quar-.
ter the following dispatches Gin reply to our in
quiries by Telegraph very nearly insure the
election Of MYRoN II. CLARK as Governor:
SYRACUSE, Friday, Nov II, 1854
The Telegraph at Canton gives the vote of st.
Lawrence as follows:
Clark 402 Seymour. 3071
Clark's majority 1881.
ROME, Friday, Nov. II, 1854
have telcgraphed Oswego County Clark's
majority is ,iO7. o. b. PIERCE.
OswEGo, Evening of Nov. II. 1854.
Clark's majority in Oswego County is Fourteen
Hundred and Sertn. L. NJ. HILL, Co. Clerk.
Mr.. Hills is the identical authority on viii n
the friends Of Seymour were claiming, night be-
fore last, a reduction of Clark's majority in
Oswego to One thousand and Screen, which would
beat him. The Oswego papers of Monday even
ing had the majority l,2l6; but those received
yesterday made it Lao, as above. We think
that must be the true figure, and cannot see how
st. Lawrence can be other than as given above.
in returns transmitted as Official, to say nothing
of blunders in those only claiming to be semi
official. In many counties the vote is given diff
ferently in different papers processing to tran
scribe from the same records, and we lave frst
one statement, then another, then third or per-
hsps back to the irs.. Such bewildering con-
fusion as this years election returns have been
we hope never to see again.
The Telegraph yesterday reported corrections
as follows: The vote officially declared for Ulster
gave Clark &c majority as we had it; but mis-
take has since been detected in the computed
vote Of Marbletown, which, duly corrected,
raises Clark's majority to ll9. We have another
dispatch, cutting down Seymour's m,jority in
HsTktmer "a votes; we don't know about this
AS to the rumors Of cheating in this City an
error OF three hundred discovered, &C., they
must be sheer CANNON. Cheating in the canvass
is morally impossible; and the Board consists of
our ALDERMEN, not more than half of whom
care much for Seymour's election. The County
Clerk has the documents in charge. bu, bs
cam OF cheat if be would, aod would not if he
could. We DO not defend the dilatory, dosdlipy
msnner in which Votes are canva.sed in this City:
but the figures we give as Seymour, majority are
those Of the County Clerk himself exceeding
ours probably by reason of imperfect ballots
counted by the Clerk bat not BY cur Reporters)
to the extent of ffty-six votes. We think the
Csnvassers cannot put this City above 1850 for
Seymour, and we do not know another spot ia

RUSSIAN ANNEXATION IN ASIA.

Something like year since THE TRIBUNE was
the first to call the attention Of the public
to the designs of the Russian Government upon
that extensive portion of North Eastern Asia
lying between Siberia and China proper. This
vast region. extending for thousand miles along
the coast of the sea Of Okotsk and the sea of ia
pan, wstered by the great river Amoor, one of the
largest streams Of the globe, which penetrates
some 500 miles directly into the interior of the
continent with magnificent harbor at the mouth
OF that river, nd rich in mineral well as veget
able treasures has now passed from the control Of
the sparse and quarrelsome Manchoo tribes that
have possessed it for centuries, and from the
suzeTalnty of the now lettering Tartar dynasty Of
Pekin, into the hands Of the bold patient, and
energetic Russians, who, whatever be their char
ter in European relations, certainly appear upon
the Aistic stage, and among itaefete mOnarchies
and exhausted traditions as an innovsting, civil
iziDg, and regeneratiDg power. And not content
with thus seizIng on one of the most valuable,
though most remote and ungoveruable provinces
of the Chinese Empire, the same INSCRIPTIONS
hands have also snatcted one of the islands of JA
pau ta'mg 'HcetotualiOulsbsO vi tnat oWlon tcdliu
10 diees! the insult as they may. For making
this second acquisition, Mursvief-the Governor
OF Eastern Siberia, man Of original and daring
mind, who has been allowed, We doubt not,
according to the usual policy of st. Petersburg in
such cases, to follow bis own course in this mat
ter,-has had the ready reason Of every ilbuster,
the necessity ofsecuriDg what be had already oc-
cupied. The i.land Of Saghalien, $40 miles long
and 30 wide, as We are told of rich soil but small
population, extends it's northern extremity before
the mouth Of the Amoor at such proximity that
without the island the harbor could not be safe
against hostile force. Accordingly, Muravieff
bas taken the leland.
According to the data furnished by McCulloch,
the entire territory thus annexed to the Russian
Empire is rs, 900 square miles in area or bat
oDee eighth less than the United States east of the
Mississippi, or than France, Italy, Austria and
Turkey, all together. As 10 the numbers of the
population, We have NO means of knowing what
they may be; the Msnchoos, however, form the
principal part of it. These Tartars, nomad. now
ss of yOre, have fallen from the power they
welded two hundred years ago, when they i'm
posed race of m0narchs and an official language
upon the toilsome millions of China. Since that
memorable event, they have acknowledged q

Moon at Pekir, bu! that pOtentate has exercised
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1854-11-18

We have heretofore published very full ac-
counts of the riots which have occurred in Will
liamsburgh on the day of Election. Since that
time there has been long investigation before
the Coroner NEST of the testimony adduced being
printed in this mornings paper. Ii is in EVIL
dence that the main riot occurred early in tae
morning at the poll of LIST District, Fourteenth
Ward in consequence of an attempt to arrest
man who was challenged, and refused to swear
In his vote. Another disturbance occurred at
roon at the same poll from similar causes, when
the man who had challenged the obnoxious votes
was set upon and severely beaten. The
assailants were evidently oil Irishmen.
The Deputy Sherifs at ence interfered,
and then the Irishuen got hoes, clubs barrel
slaves and other weapons and in the course OF
the fight large number Of persons were badly
beaten, some of whom have since died of their
wounds. The first onset was upon Mr.. Silk
worth, the challenger who had incurred the dis
pleasure of the roting party BY Directing to some
oftheir votes. In reply to the question il be was
voter, one Of the rioters CRIED "Downwith the
odd heretics," and then assisted to drag Silk
worth out Of the room. 1t Is also testified
that the Irshmen armed themselves by tear
ing down fences and splitting the boards for
clubs. Various incendiary expressions were
used by the assailants such as saying
that they would like to "spil the blood OF the
"Protestsnts and id Know NothiDgs." 1t is
also said that the women in the house next to the
poll threw stones from the windows upon tae
crowd, and clubs for the rioters to fight with.
Some on both sdes were armed with pistols, but
there was little or no firing According TO the
evidence, one of the Aldermen (Linsky) appears
to have been interested on the side Of the rioters
saying that he did not think the Deputy Sheriffs
had right to arrest any one aud that he would
knife them if they attempted to seize him. The
testimony is mostly such as restates or corrob-
crates the above points, and tho main facts proved
are, that while the Deputy Sherids were at the
polls in the discharge of their duty, they were
assaulted by the mob, and, together with other
citizens, were beaten. William Henry Harrison
was killed there by blow given by Oliver Lee,
and John H. Smith was also killed by blows from
clubs in the hands of Thomas Newman aud per-
son unknown. These men were principals, and
| some thirty others accessories to the murder,
having been engaged in the riot. At II O'Clock
last night the Jury returned verdict implicat-
ing large number of persons whose names will
be found in another column.

The Courier and Enquirer of yesterday pub
Ishes an announcement, received by telegraph
from London to Liverpool, to the effect that
Louis Napoleon has concluded to yield the point
in the case of Mr.. Soule, and allow that gentle
man to pass through France on his way to
Madrid. The Manchester Examiner makes
similar statement, which may prove true; but
though we were prepared for some concession
from NJ. BSnaparte, so complete an ABANDON
ment of course of action he had beyond doubt
deliberately adopted, does not seem consistent
with the prevalent idea of his character. If it
be so, though be will not have gained anything
either in private reputation or public influence
by his open insult to the American people, he
will DO doubt have extricated himself from an
unpleasant and difficult position. Diplomatic
and possibly commercial non-intercourse with
this country, could not strengthen much the hold
of the usurper upon his blood-stsined and dis
honored throne.
