Minor has pIu- rality of 7e9. Over 5000 votes were cast for Wm. I. Miner, however, which being of coarse intended for William T. Minor, will De so reported by the Committee of Canvassers appointed by the Legislature. 1t is also said that the votes for Ca.ef and Merrelis, alie American candidates for Trea- surer and Controller, are variousIy spelled. but as it has been oyer and over again set tied that bad spelling does not viiiase a vote or a return of votes, these gentlemen will have the benefit of them, without question
 The Congressionaisote shows majority of s.so3 against the Administration. Sid ney Dean, in the Sd district has the enor- nous majority of4.fsS, or more than twice as many votes as his opponent. There were I65 votes returned for Ezra Clark without out the s.Jr." from Holland County, but they do not affect his election.
 Among the Senators, Seagrave Smith, (Admin.) has an apparent plurality over Lawrence Hebbard, (k. N. Whig,) on ac- count of his, Richards, name being mis- spelt in some of the returns, but his real majority is 335. and he will be given the seat by the Senate. From a similar cause, Wm. Cothren, (W. and K. N. is returned in the l6th district. though Beecher, (Adm. has a real majority of i6, if the votes given for Abram instead of Alraham Bcecher, are received.

While President ofthe Crystal Pa lace, he had contracted to purchase 223 shares of Crystal Palace stock of Orrin D.

The suit was withdrawn but it appears that Barnum declined to buy the stock as per agreement: hence the action and the yer dict againstthe defendant. Barnum seems to have made some awful blunders lately.

FROM THE WAR.

The steamer Nashrile arrived at New York, on Sunday, with one weeks later news. The Vienna Conference adjourned until the 9ih, to await the Russian ultima tum, and the arrival of the French and Turkish Ministers of Foreign Affairs at Yi- enna.
 The feeling in England becomes more prevalent tha. nothing Is left but to fight it out.
 There has been a succession of sanguin- ary conflicts between the French and the Russians before Sebastopol, for the posses sion of the rife ambuscade pits, with vary ing success, but with much loss. The la test battle the night of the 23d, put 5000 men hors dc combat, but no details are giv- en. Both armies are actively engaged in strengthening their positions, and preparing for the grand operations of the spring cam paign.
 A dispatch from Berlin, dated Friday, states that the Russian party is predomin- ant there, and that Prussia will most likely throw herself into the arms of the Cxar in case of unfavorable result of the Confer. ence.

A serious row occurred in this city this morning, growing out of the Maine law and license question. One man was killed and five or six others wounded.

An immense crowd collected and knives and clubs were freely used. The principals were arrested and the excitement is now diminishing.

HlcH PaIcEs The average markc value ofprovisions has, we think attained higher point than ever before. With the opening spring, which it was hoped would bring re- lief, the prices have still an upward tenden- cy. The prospect is certainly gloomy for the largeclass of consumers who depend on the ordinary prices of labor for their daily bread, aud we know of but one way to miti gate the evils which seem likely to increase through another year. Something may be done by substitutes for the more expensive articles of food, but the great remedy is with the Farmers. We are inclined to the opinion that there is scarcely one, who by the application of fertilizers, and the ein- ployment of more lahorers, could not profit ably double the products of his farm. Now is the time to give attention to the subject, that the poor may not have 10 endure re. petition of the suffering of last winter.
