WEAVER OBTAINING AND EXAMINING PRIVATE
BAGGAGE-Mr. Do.r makes the following
statement in the Bangor Journal, which re-
mains unconlradcted, and no explanation has
been offered by Weaver in The Morrill, papers:
Messrs Editors Upon arriving, stranger
in yonr beautiful city, Saturday. per steamer
Penobscoi, my trunk, in which was my travel
ling apparel, was detained npon the wharf, by
one Of the police Of your CITY, under the pre-
,ence he had right To examine the contents,
for the purpose Of discovering liquors. Upon
asking the Marshal why he annoyed me in this
way, he rudely replied that he had the right
Ia. Suffice ii to say, opened my trunk rath-
er than resist or have il broken open, when the
contents were tumbled over, but no liquor
found
In the meantime the hacks and carriages had
all left the wharf, and had 10 walk up 10 the
Hatch House aud get one 10 return and bring
my trunk up. Whether this is the custom of
your city officers, or whether the people Of
Bangor coanlenance and uphold such proceed
ings, know not. To me an entire stranger,
aud accustomed to respectable treatment in my
travels heretofore, | confess was annoyed and
provoked.

during the bombardment and assault IS estimated al

The Result i'm the Old keystone.
10000 Majority for Plnmer.
Il DE.MCR.4TIC LEGISLATURE
and
A Democratic u. y. Senator.

The election OF last Tuesday resvlted IN the
giorIogs triumph o. the Democracy and the
friends of the Constitution. The returns this
county are not all reported. Enough however
Is known to secure the election OF The Know
Nothing Treasurer and Auditor. The Com
missioner is yet in doubt with about an equal
chance between Horton aud Whetstone.
The average majority for the know nothings is
considerably less than il was last year. There Is
nothing IN the result TO discourage any Demo-
crat. Before the election the K. Ms boasted
loudly Of carrying the County by 900 or 1000
majority. By this means many good Democrats
were induced to remain at home. Ehe Eesah
proves that with any thing like a FAIR turn out
Bedford County is Democratic by large ma
iority.
The conduct of the K. n. party has driven
many good men from the ranks of the opposi-
ton and they are now so completely disorgan-
ized, that it will be impossible for years to rally
them together in opposition to the Democracy.
In our Legislative district, the noble Demo-
Gratis of Cambria county, have rolled up q ina
iority of nearly 800 for our ticket.
Fulton County has given the very large ma
ioriy of 223. These results secure the cleo
ton of Major BERNHARD and GEO. n. SMITH
Esq, 10 tue Legislature oy ifoiu elShe " HfHS
hundred majority. 1t was said before the elec-
ton that the Know Nothing Candidates were
formerly Democrats, and went over for the sake
Of office. II SO they have been slightly dsaPPoin-
ted.
The Democrats have carried the State OF
Pennsylvania by at least 10000 majority. The
Senate and House of Representatives are both
Democratic by larger maiorities than We have
had for some years. This secures United
States Senator for SIX years.
The returns of the city Of Philadelphia are
as yet somewhat incomplete, bat nevertheless
indicate clearly the triumphant election OF
GEORGE mcgee, the Democratic candidate for
Sheriff, by majority approzimatlng very near
ly to tlcO thousand, and CHARLES w. CARRI-
GAN, Register of Wills, and JOHN SHERRY,
Clerk of the Orphans Court, by nearly the
same majorties. This would be OF itself 4
glorious result. but, in addition, we have efec-
ted eleven members of the assembly, and a
state senator in4ihe connty, and -iaSa- mHmhsrs-
of the assembly IN the old city out of four,
giving, at the same time, t1co thousand three
hundred minority for Arnold Plumer for Ca
nal Commissioner over the Republican, Abo-
lition and Know-Nothing candidate
