POLITICAL ITEMS.

Judge Alex. McKinstry, of the Mobile City
Court, has come out for Buchanan.
1t appears by the official vote by districts
in BerkS county that in tie fifty districts
which compose the county there is a democrat
majority in every one.
There were 10 2l5 votes pOlled il Cincinn :,ti
last week-S,S35 by the Democrats, 08S b
the Americans, and J, 179 by the Republicans
Last year the total vote was only IL, lO2.
Hon. j. NJ. S. Csusin, the talented and dis
tinguished Wing, intends next week to take
the stump in favor Of Buchanan and Breckin-
ridge, says the Annapolis Republican.
The meeting Of the Fremont State CoDyon-
ton Of Pennsylvania, at Harrisburg, hiss been
postponed until the 25th ms. There il, as
yet, no Fremont electoral ticket in PcrnsyI.

The New Ork Commc reial, ole Of the most
reliable Wing journals Of that city, Is review
inS the result of the Pennsylvania election
says "COl. FIemOnt's election Is really and
without controversy, entirely hopeless -
The whole Wing, American and Democrats
press is naturally enough laughing outright
at the TTibune's story OF their being two IRE
monts, and that the Republican candidate tor
the Presidency is a different man from the
Fremont who has been a Roman Catholic ard
so often been in Roman Catholic Churches.

Their Txcuse.-Our amiable and interest
ing neighbor has made up his mind to expose
the frauds by which he insists the Penn Viva
MIA election Was carried, though still claiming
that his own Fremont State ticket las his
co laboTer Of the New York HsyaM STYLES i'd
has triumphed there by glorious majority.
In this connection he is essentially {" trou bled
with rats" or by tho CHEST of "Fornoy."
The Pennsyivanian, however thus puts to
flight all such excuses for tie recent defe at of
the opposition there
Z" THE AGGREGATE VOTE OF THE Cry -
The opposition, as the most available dodge
to excuse defeat where they had promised a
triumph, cry out fraud because there were
tG i16 votes pOiled in this city on Tuesday
last. Now, VIC need only revert to the fact
that, at the regular annual assessment made
for the year 1856, there were returned from
the twcnty-four Wards Of the city Of Philadel.
rbia, ninety-four Thousand seven hundred and
thirtyone taxable Inhabitants And when to
this number, the extra assessments are added,
1t is officially established that there over one
hundred thousand taxable male adults in the
city Of Philadelphia To assert then, with
this fact before them, that Go, i76 votes could
not be pOlled without a resort 10 fraud, is to
assert an absurdity and a falsehood"
