THE DAILY DISPATCH
THE ELECTION NEWS.

The Dispatoh Office was crowded. Io"
the dav of elaction. on Thursday, until Mon
day night, with persons ANXIOUS 10 heai wv
result of the elections, and during that TUNE
crowds occupied the corner IN front Oh our
office. studying the returns on our pui'e'i"
boards. We had made the best arrange
ments we could, and as far as the Telegraph
could subserve the purpose of gathering in'
formation, we obtained it and spreau "
promptly before the public. we adopted
plan by which we received consideraoie
number of official returns at an early period
and they were given as soon as they came
N hand. te the public. Indeed we have lett
no exertion, no expense unemployed where
by we could facilitate the receipt of election
news. We knew the deep interest in the ex'
citing contest and we determined to do all IN
our power to crafty the public. We sat up
late and got up early, and we can say, that
on no former election has the news been SO
promptly concentrated in this city.
Such a crowd, so long drawn together for
such purpose, we have not seen before
and we can bear testimony to the good feel
ing and propristy by which it was marked,
Al sides met here, and all seemed to be in
good humor In the beginning, as the hopes
and fears of parties vibrated, the counte-
nance reflected them, faces were heightened
or shortened, made bright or gloomy, as the
fortune of the day wavered. But after the
question was settled as to Mr.. Wises cleo
ton, the friends of Mr.. Flournoy surrender
ed in the best hulnor, and bore their defeat
as became them. The partizans freely took
and returned the jokes of each other, and
some of the liveliest and best humored bon
mots of the season were elected by the
keen encounter of their wits. We shall be
happy to accommodate the public on next
election day.

nPRINCE NAPOLEON"

The last foreign arrival failed to inform
us of the present doings and expectations OF
Prince Napoleon. Ever since his return
from the Crimea, he has been conspicuous
bv the contrast which his conduct is said to
have presented to that of Napoleon the First.
Judging from the insinuations of the French
press, it would appear that he deserves the
cognomen of the Prince of the White Fea-
Their. He has written a pamphlet, however,
but is believed to be more valiant with the
pen than the sword The ill-natured scribes
of the Paris journals insinuate, that after
throwing down his glove to the Russian
champions, he craw -fshed. 1t is notifying
enough to Frenchmen that Napoleon
should behave in this manner; but the dis
grace becomes far more poignant from the
fact, that he set up pretensions to qualities
which he did not possess. If the ass in the
fable had been content with his original ma
ture, no one would have despised him; but
when he arrayed himself in the lions skin,
and endeavOred to initiate the roar of the
king of beasts, he became very ridicu-
lous, and imposed upon nobody but himself.
Prince Napoleon will never sit on the throne
of Louis.

THE LONDON MERCHANTS AND THE WAR
The London correspondent May 10Y OF tine
National Intelligencer, says that the great
meeting of the merchants and citizens TO,
Gently held in London, was one of the most
important nolitical demonstrations lately made
in England, however deficient 1t might nave
been il many Of The ou:w"rd!y effective cha-
racteristics of great social movement III
numbers and responsibility, both of position
and character. 1t exceeded all anticipation
II is said that there was not single agltator
or politician at the meeting, most hea'thlui
and hopeful sign. They were private ci'l'
zens-men of all parties; men, says Ihe ooi
respondent who represent the real power OF
Great Britain by their commerce, their vast
connexions. and their mercantile celebrity.
at was only the sense OF danger TO nstiohai
honor and to the character of their common
country, which could have induced men Oh
such various and conflicting political opln-
ions to leave the privacy of their counting
houses, to stir up the troubled waters OF Po-
Iitical agitation. But there they were. To-
ries of the old school and Wings of the new
conservative and radical, all on the same
platform. subscribing to the same sentiments
and uniting in the same league. one con-
viction pervaded the whole mass-the con
viction of the necessity for radical reform
Of the abuses which have crept, during the
existence of long peace and the careless
uess of a prosperous people, into almost every
branch of the administrative Government
There was no exhibition of excited feeling
no indulgence of vehement defamation
The work was entered upon IN business
like way, and executed in the calm spirit
with which men of business perform their
counting house operations, with the setpos
session of Englishmen and the confidence Oh
men in the pursuit of justice and right.
The example of London has been follo"eo
by Derby and some otherplaces. Liverpool
Manchester, York, Bristol, Birmingham
Sheffield Leeds, &c, are organizing meet
ings, and there is general party fusion tor
the restoration of honest, vigorous and eco
nOmical government.

FAYETEE ARTlLLERY-This old v0lun-
teer company under the command of Capt Rich
ardsOn had an anniversary celebration at Colonel
Myers farm, in Henrco county where they par
took of an excellent dinner and the necessary
trimmings in which a number of invited guests
and honorary members participated. The Cons
pany had their usual target practice, in which Mr.
James Levar made the best shot and won the
medal.
The Artillery, we regret to see, made a small
parade, not more than twenty men. This should
not be 60, for Captain Richardson, Is not only a
most excellent officer, but worthy gentleman, and
entirely devoted to his corps. Our young men
should como out aud join this company at once, so
as to place 1t where 1t deserves to stand Ia the
front rank of the regiment.
