| The Elections TO. D0yssn Pennsy lvanis, Ohio
and. Indiana.
TIE three great and important States OF
| Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana hold their
State elections to-day. The results of these
elections will 20 faI to shape out the general
drift Of parties and factions in the North, in
reference 20 The mou,entous issues OF the ap
: preaching Presidential campaign.
In Pennsy lvania q Governor, a State Legis-
laaure. upon which will devolve the election OF
United States Senator, in the place of Dir
Cooper, whlg), and twenty-five members Of
| Congress have 10 be chosen. At the last cleo
don the delegation stood sixteen democrats aud
nine wings. In dis instance, however, the work
ing OF the spolls policy of the administration,
the Nebraska bill, and the temperance question,
shch, upon The acceptance or rejection OF the
principle of the Maine liquor law is made a
direct issue before the people, render all the
results Of all elections heretofore utterly use
les for any satisfactory calculations OF con.
lectures. In edition 10 these new clements o.
party arrangements, the conspicuous aud
threatening attitude assumed by the. Know
No,sipgs makes The prevailing noise and con-
fusion drCaGiully conionnded. The ad1inistra
iior psily, whipping round the Nebraska bill,
have, . the last desperate alternative, been
making she issue with the Know Nothugs
he exclusive business Of the canvass. We
csnno; pretend 10 predict the consequences.
The general impression appears to be that
the administration VIII DO signally dam
agcl; end that Nebraska, the spells, the tenn
pcrance question, the reciprocity treaty. and
The Know No.A.ngs, wiz al contribute to
siprgiren the wings upon the Governor, the
Legislature and the Congressman. Doubtless
Il win be an unexpected result 10 the spoils de.
mocracy II they escape a total rcut from Dan
TO Bershcha.'
In Ohio. ever since the Van Buren, free soil
| move mcnt OF lsis tho wings, from the loss Of
| their free soil allies, have heen in powerlcss
| minority. AZ the election for Governor in
1858, We democratic candidate polled l47, G63
votes, the wings s5,s2o and the free sellers
! $1,000. The Nebraska bill has changed the
boot 20 the other leg again, and there has taken
place in Ohio VIC suspect, q sufficient fusing OF
the free sellers and wings TO leave the demo-
Gratis nowhere in the aggregate vote. In the
preseSt Congress the State delegation Of the
House stands, twelve democrats, seven wings,
and two free soilcrs. In the election to-day the
tables may be reversed. The hardest fight OF
the democrats viii he for the reelection OF
Odds, in the Columbus district, leading Ne
brasLa man; but the current against BIN is very
strong and heavy. The Know Nothings, In
some districts, especially Cincinnati, will be
very apt 70 cut in and make rs clean Job of
the wrsnglipg democracy as they lately did in
San Francisco.
IN Indiana the wings, since the decline aud
fall Of
Iippe,anoe and y iertoo.
have been OF q very low figure. Of Congress
sional delegation Of eleven members in the
House, thc party have but a solitary member.
But 10 should not I've a, all snrprised If this
days election Ia Indiana, from the general
causes applicable to Pcnnsylvania aud Ohio,
including the River and liarbor bill. were t.
result II leaving The Indiana democracy In n
riiifnl minority In Congress.
We shall be aston'shod al nothing whigh may
result from the elections In either OF the nfJrc
said states, except n triumph o. The admins
,ration. And anything, however like victory
