bPon ihis issue che parties went into the
contest, and upon this is.ne the people OF
Maryland deliberptely pronounced by de-
c'siyc vote in favor Of Anericauism. This
Maryland election is probably the fairest
and most, decisive test of the real strength
Of Ameracauism, with the masses Of the
people, that has yet been produced. For
weeks preceding the election, the Foreign
journals boastingly paraded long lists of
leading Wing politicians who were afraycd
against the American movement, leaving
the battle to be fought by the honest masses
OF the old Wing and Democratic parties
The latter have trinmphed gloriously ard
give All earnest to their American brethren

eomplished in every State, in fair fight

receipt of and Publishes an 'scxtra" from
the St. Louis Press, in which it Is stated,
under date of For, Laramie, October 10,
that the train which arrived at that place
from Great Salt Lake, which left an the 18th
of September, brings accounts of an AWFUL
earthquake, which took place the l1sh OF
that month. We have seen no account
elsewhere of the reported event, ami therefore
we are inclined to doubt lis truth How

opposite side Of the Lake, at Flat Rock Point,
slid from It's base in the lake; driving the
water before 1t in an enormous wave, to the
opposite slere, where il speedily mounted
to the top of the first stories, conining the
Inhabitants To their chambers.
"About one hundred houses, containing
chiefly women and children, were thus sur
rounded. The sricks OF the women aud
children we're appalling. vi ~
.sFhc rumbling Of the earthquake, and
the shouts aud yells of the frenzied multi

informant, such as he never witnessed be-

subscribers in Napier Township, We would
state that the whole number Of papers 60
lng to the Sehensburg Post Office, were
plaaed in the Office, in Bedford, last week,
on Thursday evening, and the fault iies with
this Post office, that they did not all, IN
stead of small portion, GO TO Schellsburg
on Friday morning. j couple of weeks
ago. our Charlesvilie and Rsinsburg packa-
gcs also did not go en- the Saturday after
they we're published, and as there is only
:. weekly MAI! to these places, they did not
get them uatil eight days after they were
issued. The fault is not ours, as they were
pat IN the office here in due time. This
crobably occurs with others ef our packs-
ges, and it is certainly annoying to ns, as
well as to our subscribers. Itis all, IN our
opinion, the fault of having Jesuits in the

THE FRUIT OF VICTORY.

TIE New \ ork Mirror IN = we'll timed ar
tlele has the following jadicous remarks,
which We commend TO the attention os the
country; The Americans, after various
disasters, incident TO new, iinperfectly or
ganlzed party, are closing up ,hri: ranks,
and planiing their victorious banners in ev-
cry section Of the Union. Considering
their age in the political drama, their tri-
umph has been ample. 0vef-succcss is
over elating and destructive. Hard fought
battles and occasional defeat discipline new
forces and train raw recruits into veterans
1t will be better for them, in tue great
coming contest that they have, 10 these
preliminary skirmishes, found some obs.a-
eles in the way. Il has taught them the
need of unity and harmony in their conn
els, and OF vigilance aud endurance at ev-
cry outpost, and IN all their camps.
The field now lies broad md c!e2r be-
fore the Americans. They are in power in
New York, Ohio, Ealirorn u, Louisiana,
Maryland, keatucky, Delaware, Massachu-
Setts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, aud
Rhode Isiand--and have proved their aLili-
lty to carry PennsY Ylrania On a sauare
American issne. Ia national contest
with fair platform and strong leaders,
they can carry Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee,
Aiabama, and Virginia-and we doubt not
/ Florida, Mississippi, Arkansas, ami North
Carolina. Atany rate, 70 other party can
boast 50 fair ! prospect of national success
~ 1856.
The victories just won viii add vastly to
/ the chances and influence of the American
party Their best fruit will be 10 assure
thousands IN every State, who hare al
along Sylnpathized with the American rncre-
menf, but who, tiinid and waverng, have
consulted their caution, aud waited 10 see
whether American triumph was ccrain.-
These thousands will now rush into the
American ranks, and many leading men Of
Old parties, who have heretofore fought the
! American battle under cover, will come ou,
and fight openly, and will bring the deren,
dant on their example with them. The
moral influence Of the American vic:org in
the great State of New York, with its one
fifth OF the white population of the Union
can hardly be over-estimaied It will in
vigorate Americauism throughout the
Union.
II the battle we're t. be fought over 10
Gorrow, the victory of Tuesday would aid
22,000 30 the American column. The
scattered forces, the camp followers, thc
doubters and warercrs, all tend to the vic.
torlous side--in politics as in war. A crea,
thing for the American party are these tri.
umpbs IN New York, Massacbase;ts, Cali
fornia and Maryland--s rs great IN their in.
iuence OF the masses Of the people, as il
their direct results. Fheg are song anG
prophecy OF national triumph.
