PRESIDENTIAL ELEcTIoN.-Last Tuesday, Nov. 18th
was the day for election of the President of the U. s.,
in which political strife the whole American people
were probably engaged to a degree never before
known. 1t is utterly impossible to predict here the
result of the contest, but we have been furnished
with the following extract from a letter lately received
from an old politician, In New York State, VINO is
we'll " posted up'' in political matters:
NEW YORK, AUG. 1856.-There is nothing heard
of now save politics. - The
whole country is in a blaze of excitement. discussion
&C. l think there is MOI a contingency of the cleo
ton or Mr.. Buchanan He viii doubtless be elected
by the. people. Mr.. Fillmore has many of the old
line Thlgs, but such men as Rufus Choate have very
generally given their adhesion to Mr. Buchanan. 1
think the Republicans would haze done more and
probably carried the north had they not been so fool
lsh as TO talk OF disunion and they have manufacture
ed TOO many dead men In Kansas. The fight there
has been a humbug. north and south, and the farce is
about played OUT"

Mr.. EDITOR &c Reef Knott is a happy cognomen

ENfCLIPPER RACE To THE SANDWICH ISLANDS. Be-
tween San Francisco and Honolulu there has piled
for a long time a class of very fast vessels, justly
celebrated for their speed, and the track has always
been one where more or less racing is continually
going on. The weather between the two points is
generally uninterruptedly fine, and the strong trade
winds are favorable. a~ffording a fair test Of the sail
ing qualities of the competing vessels. The old fash
loned way OF steering for the Islands was to stand
hrSt well to the southwark, until meeting, the north
ern edge of the trade winds, and then beating away
for the port of destination. This method has been
abandoned by the packets plying regularly between
~ 4 Two ports which now steer as nearly straight all
the way as possible, except in the winter months.
when the passage is much more difficult to make.
owing to the irregularities of the trade winds.
wednesday morning, the race of the season COM
mences. and the following vessels, sailing within a
few hours of each other, are entered for the contest.
with what chances of success we leave all to Judge ]:
