strength that the issue upon governor presented itself in
such form attract part Of their vote TO Seymour,
and they predicted before the election that they should be
able this fail to demonstrate the truth Of this position
The result has extent indicated this reasoning
The highest hard vote-being for the candidates who
the liquor ticket and who about 10000 ahead Of
their associates that ticaeis in round numbers
$4,000 against $4,000 for Bronson last year The
this year triae than il last the other
candidates besides Bronson.
The average soft vote ais year all The officers except
Judges is 955o7.
The average bard vote the officers is 53925
The present division in the democratic party originated

er Greiner, laying off his regimentalS, took
US by the arm and we had long walk and
talk! He said they had their own troubles
that since the free soilsrs had cheated the
silver-greys. by Orgaaisings new Council
last fall, taking in Galloway, who had seen
twice rejected blythe original Council, and
then put him on their ticket for Congress,
there was no real unity among them. The
present difficulty was, that the temperance
men, V. s., and others, wanted city ticket
pledged to the Maine law, which was bitter
ly opposed by brothers NJ, H.,
E., and others. He hoped however, that
their mate hatred of the.plangy Dutch, would
enable them to unite. But he feared the
Bhoys in the order would get up separate
X. NJ ticket, and by taking some of other
parties, elect it. "
By this time we had arrived at HesseI.
meris, on From, street, where the Sag
Nichcts" were said to be in session,
and we invited GREINER to go in aud Join.
AAS hS5AtohOu a. uibIg uut VIC uuUliy got
him into the larger beer saloon, and step
ing out moment, we gave some members
of the order the wink, when they adjourned
the real coucil, organized sham meeting,
aud bringing out the beer in large quanti-
ties, organised with Sheriff Miller as Presi-
dent. AT the first degree, GREINER was
made to drink large glass oflager beer, and
and repeat "Sag Nichr' three times. At
the second he drank another glass, and
said "Nisht Sag" three times---at the third
degree he said "E7othiag K1aow," three times,
and swallowed another glass of beer---and at
the fourth and last degree he said Knolc
Nothing" three times, and swallowed anoth-
er glass of beer. By this time he was full
ly innitiated, and we left him clinging to
the counter, hurrahing for "JoEL" he" can
beat SAM" This accounts for the manner
GREINER, became acquainted with proceed
ings which he SO graphictly detailed in the

"Old Virginia never tires"

SPEECH OF HENRY A. WISE, OF VIRGINIA.
sdon the Know Nothings, at Alexandria, Feb 3.
-Hf
Now, gentleman having swept the North
ern and Northwestern non slaveholding
States of the Union, the next onset is on
the soil of Virginia. This Worcester jour-
nal boasts that Maryland and Virginia are
already almost Northern States, and pray.
how do they propose to operate on the
South! Having swept the Nortb-Massa-
chusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, and all
those other States-the question was: how
can this ism be wedged in at the South;
and the "Christian politics" !" to tell them
precisely how, (Cat-calls, derisive cheers,
and other manifestations Of the Know Moth
ing element of the meeting) there were
three elements in the South and in Virginia
particularly, to which they might apply
themselves. There is the religious element,
the Protestant Bigotry and fanaticism--for
Protestants, gentleman, have their religious
zeal without knowledge, as well as Catho
lies. "a voice "true enough, sir.'9 1t is
anappeal to the 100000 Presbyterians, to
the 300 200, Baptistss to the 100000 Metho-
dists of Virginia. Well, how were theyto
reach them! Why, just by raising the hell
of.a funk about the Pope. (Laughter.)-
The Popel snow so poor that Louis Napole-
on who requires every soldier in his king
dom at Sebastopol, has to leave guard Of
muskets at Rome! Once on time; crown

toe; but now; who cares for Pope in TIA

No Coon DEED Losr.--P Philosophers tell
us that since the creation of the world not
one single particle has ever been lost
may have passed into new shapes-it may
have floated away in smoke or vapor-but It
is not lost. 1t will come back again in the
dewdrop orIthe rain-it will spring up in the
fibre of the plant, or plant itself on the rose
leaf Through all its formations, proyi-
dence watches over and directs it still
Even so it is with every holy thought or
heavenly desire, or humble aspiration, or
generous and self-dsaying effort It MY
escape our observation-we may be unable
to follow it, but it is an element of the NOR.
al work and it is not lost. S
WIT-I have talked of the danger Of wit
| do not mean by that, to enter into COM
mon-place defamation against faculties
because they are dangerous; wit is dam
gerous; eloquenco is dangerous; talent
Of observation is dangerous; everything
is dangerous that has efficacy and
vigor for its characteristics; nothing issafe
but mediocrity. The business is; in conducts
ing the understanding we'll, to risk--to aim
at uniting things that are commonly incom-
patble. The meaning of an extraordi1-
ary man is, that he is eight men, notpne
man; that he has aa much wit as il he had
no sense, and as much sense rs il he had
no wit; that his conduct is asjudicions asit
he were the iullest Of human beings ndllis
Imagination as brilliant as il he were ire
trievably ruined.--Sidaey Snaita, 80
