We nut the election news from this State in
general summary, not being inclined 10 give 1T sep
arate notice, now that all the excitement is over.
The Washington Union, of yesterday has tele-
graphic despatch, Just received, which thus sums up
the whole matter:
"Braggs (Dem) majority over Dockery (Fed) is
2O25 The Senate composed of SO members, has
80 Democrats to 90 Wings. The House, composed
of 100 members, has 65 Democrats to SIS Wings,
making 20 majority on joint ballot The land of
Macon has done WE'LL"
There is such u thing running matters in the
ground The Know Nothings," for instance, hav-
ing obtained power in Philadelphia busy turn
ing out various persons simply upon sectarian
grounds Two ladies, a Miss McCuen and Miss
Winsow, teachers in the Reed street Grammar
School, in that city, have recently been dismissed
for the openly -avowed that they were
members of the Catholic Church, there being no
other charge alleged against them. Now, if the OBJ
ect be, as we suppose Isl to restrain the growth Of
that denomination, the measures adopted TO effect
that end are in the highest degree, impoLtic-as
everybody, who knows anything must be aware that
nothing so tends to the growth of any body as even
the appearance of persecution or prescription. Why
even the Mormons owe much of their growth to the
violent course of the people of Illinois and Missouri
towards them. The idea of absolute prohibition or
the Maine Liquor Law, somehow connected with the
Temperance movement, in this State, has, we feel
certain, injured the cause, and perhaps, postponed
if not actually defeated, the hopes of proper and
cessary reformatory legislation, of a moderate char
acter, which nearly everybody is willing 10 admit
is called for by the wants of the community The
conclusion is that overzea is injurious any cause,
good, bad or Indifferent.
The telegraph is great institution, but far from
reliable. 1t somehow always contrives to mix up
election news SO far to be of no value at all We
notice this particularly in the of this State-not
one despatch TO be found in the columns of papers
abroad making an approximation to the truth. 1t is
also little strange that the telegraph always gives
the election to the Wings, until the actual news by
mail has rendered it impossible any longer to keep it
up. That is popularity of the lightning line
The Geographic from Missouri and Iowa is
pretty much of this character. At present, all the
returns appear way. In few days il is possible
that their complexion may be changed.
Mr.. L. Badger has retired from the editorial con.
troll OF the Portsmouth (Va) Globe. The paper viii
be conducted hereafter by his former partner, Mr.
Hyde, to whom, as also to the retiring editor, we
wish much successfully Journal 14th inst.

GENERAL CAss ON THE BATcHELDER CAsE.-The
brief and eloquent remarks of General Cass in favor
of the bill making compensation to the family OF
Batchelder, who was killed in the attempt Of the
aboitonists at Boston to the fugitive slave
Burns, will be responded to with appreciation by all
national men. General Glass; in a single sentence,
teeming with eloquence and devotion to the Union,
makes an argument that is conclusive of the ques.
ton. The whole speech as follows
" Mr.. CAss. Mr. President, cannot vote for ia
ng up any question which would interfere with the
river and harbor bill That is now under consdera-
lIon and unless Immediately disposed of, it will be
tost at this late stage of the session am in favor
of this measure of compromising the family of Batch
elder who was killed not long since at Boston Your
laws grant pensions to the connections of all
persons who lose their lives upon the field of BATTLE
while defending their country against foreign
enemy. This man fell in the hottest of causes-in
defending the constitution of his country when vio-
lently and ruthlessly attacked and | know of no
case which commends itself more strongly to the
sympathy of the American people or to the favorable
action of the American Congress. | shall vote for
the sum reported, feeble compensation to a be-
reaved and afflicted family, and also as an encourage
ment to all persons called by competent authority
assist the majesty of the laws TO execute that duty
fearlessly and faithfully, knowing that grateful
country will take charge of those dearest to them
should their lives be the sacrifice of their patriotic
exerons'

The RECIPROCITY TREATY.-The st. John New
Brunswick) Morning News, of the 9TH instant, says,
in regard to the reciprocity treaty:
"Now that the American government have ratified
the Eg treaty, there is alternative left but to
accept of ii in the provinces Johnahan has got the
best oil the bargain. But, notwithstanding this, we
look upon this opening for the bright
est future that New Brunswick has ever known In
stead of now being confined to Great Britain with
our trade, to suffer with her reverses we have the
whole continent of North America for a market
We now 60 in for the treaty-hook, line, bob and
snker."
The Oswego New York; Palladium says:
We congratulate the people of Oswego, and of the
Northern frontier, and of the British provinces upon
the success OF measure, which, while it does I'M
tce to no class of community, bestows such great
and liberal advantages upon all interests both in the
provinces and in the States 1t is great stride in
the path of progress and beralty and of civilization
1t is measure OF more direct and practical impor-
lance and benefit to the people than all the abstract
questions of mere agitation for the last twenty years.
And while we rejoice in its final contamination, so
far as the American government is concerned we
can do no less than express thanks to the admins
tration through whose enlightened and perseverng
labor and sagacious craftsmanship has been accom-
plished.'

California.

We have before us a file of the San Francisco
Commercial Advertiser, from the 10th to the 18th
july inclusive from which we are unable to CLEAN
anything of interest. The topics are nearly of the
same nature, and treated in pretty much the same
way, as those in our Atlantic City papers !: seems
there is split among the Democrats in California
somewhat similar to that in New York but the merits
of the case we are unable to understand. Ii would
appear to be fight between tweedIedum and twee-
dledee, in other words squabbIe for ascendency in
the party, each wing claiming to be the simon pure
article and denouncng the adherents of the other as
bOlters.' Both claim to be g sound upon the sIa-
very and Nebraska questions. The result, if not the
object of their squabbles, will probably be, to give
the State to the wings.
In glancing over the business columns of the :'Ad-
vertiser" it strikes that prices in San Francisco
have pretty nearly found their level. For instance
the "Virgna Restaurant" advertises board at six
dollars week, and various Hotels and Eating Houses
advertise board and lodging at $40 to $l4. Board
by the day, 81 25; Meals-5O cents for breakfast or
supper, IS cents for dinner. The price of the Ad-
vertlser" ITSELF has got down to So year, for the
daily paper. The era of fabulous prices is about
over. The on y difference we find in the advertising
columns of the California papers from those at home
is the absence OF Railroad cars, for the simple rea-
son that AS yet they have not got the Railroads.
Lumber and cOrd-woOd seem to come from Oregon
