The Know-Nothings Of Vermont have adopted
policy which we recommend to their brethren
of this and other States. Instead of presenting
candidates of their own, they adopted those of
She Republicans-Or at least claim since Eiec,
tion 70 have done so-and now telegraph all
ever the country that they have carried all
before them. They may carry this aud nearly
every other Free State by pursuing the same
course. Why is not this better than to go in
for Office ard get beaten as they are sure to do
when roaming alone

Thanksgiving Day.

Thursday next is the day recommen-
dcd by Governor Johnson as day of
Thanksgiving to Almighty God for the
bounties which have laden the season,
and the blessings of continued health,
peace and prosperity which distinguish
us as people. AS it is the first occa-
sion Of the kind, recommended by the
Governor of Virginia, and in all res
poets appropriate, it will doubtless be
generally observed.
Rev. Biggs gave notice on Sunday
last, that there would be preaching at
II o'clock on~rhursday at the Prcsby-
terrain house of worship. We are not
apprized Of any other appointments for
religious services in town rs yet, but
due notice will be given where such an
observance is determined upon.

TRH HLECEIoWs.

The returns received at the hour of
going to press, from States voting this
week, are rather vague and scattering,
although theprospcct for theAmericans
are quite as good as could be expected
considering that they have had to fight
the Administration, and all the 'isms'
that couldbc devised to distract them,
and to play to the hands of the Sap
Suckers" at Washington. We give
the latest returns received:
NEW YORK, Nov. THE returns
received in tho morning indicate that
the fusion ticket was gaining on the a.
mcricans; but despatch at l o'clock
states that additional returns show the
American ticket to be gaining largely.
MASSACHUSETTS.-It was thot
from the complexion of the returns, on
the 9th, that Gardner, American, was
elected Governor by 10 to 5000
The indications were also that the A
mericans will have the Legislature.
NEW JERSEY.-Nothi definite
and reports contradictory. The ants
lose one Assemblyman in Monmouth.
LOUISIANA.-New Orleans has
gore for the Americans by large ma
majority. There are no returns yet
from the State, but 50 far the chances
appear to favor the Americans.
The above returns we condense from
tho Baltimore Sun of the 7th.
MARYLAND.-In obedience to
the recommendation of the Mayor Of
Baltimore-made to maintain quiet &
order on election night--no returns
were given out by the officers of the
Election until Wednesday morning ;
hence We are without returns.

Horrible Railroad Disaster.

The st. Louis Intelligcncer of the
End. inst. states that fearful disaster
occurred the day before to a train of
cars on the Pacific Railroad. While
crossing bridge IS feet high, over the
Gasconade river, the bridge fell, and
percipitated ten ears, full of passen-
gers, besides the engine and tender, in
to twenty feet water. Twenty-eight
persons were killed, and upwards of ff-
ty. wounded, several of them severely.
Doctors Mcdowell and Mcpherson
We're fortunately among the guests, and
gayo their best skill to the alienation
Of the wrctchcd sufferers. 1t was i'm
possible however for them to apply
bandages and reset limbs under the cir
cuslstances. The accident occurred
where no houses are to be seen-in q
wild forest-and during tho time a
heavy storm of rain, accompanied with
Lightning and thunder, of the most WV
id description, fell without intcrmis-
sion.

From the Messenger and Recorder
Remarkable Cure of Cancer.

Bro. Siegfried Permit me through
the columns Of your paper to inform
the public Of the most extraordinary
cure Of Cancer that has ever fallen un-
der my notice. 1t was performed on
Anne Elizabeth Scckman, who will be
70 years old the 18th ofnext month
1t was located on the left breast, and
had been coming upwards Of years.
1t was taken out in six weeks, & when
out measured over II inches in circum-
ference, and is supposed to weigh half
pound. | saw it on last Monday, 3
weeks since it came out, and the place
out Of which it came was then nearly
healed over.
This remarkable cure was performed
by Philtp Sechman, by first applying
certain powder, which separates the
Cancer from the sound flesh and causes
it to come out, and then a particular
kind Of salve that heals it directly
| therefore would advise every one who
has cancer to come Immediately and
have it cured; if he does not cure he
will have no pay. lie resides near
Centreyillc, Tyler county, Va.
