Editorial Embarrassments.

Going to press this week on the day OF the
Presidential election, we feel in rather an awK-
ward predicament. We can Of course give no
returns of the election, and it is too late to dis
cuss the claims of the rival candidates. Yet up
to the latest moment our exchanges have come
to US burdened with electioneering documents,
and eloquent appeals to the voters. Matter OF
this kind fills their columns to the exclusion OF
almost everything else. To complete our EN-
barrassment, there is absolutely no local news
Of the least interest-no dreadful murder"
"awful catastropby," or appalling contagra-
tion." Under these circumstances, we ind II
difficult, not only to make up an interesting pa
per. but even any paper at all. We have, how
ever, used our utmost diligence TO exc out OF
our exchanges every items of general news and
every piece OF interesting miscellany, and hope
our readers will not find this paper entirely I'M
worthy Of perusal.
In regard to the result of the election we are
cultivating as philosophical frame Of mind as
possible. Indeed we may say that we are en-
loving the blessedness of the man who expects
nothing. If Fillmore should be elected, which
we do not anticipate in the popular vote, we
shall rejoice if Buchanan, we shall not only
submit as GOOD citizens to the will otthe people,
but also trust that it is blessing in disguise
We say nothing about Fremont, because his cleo
ton is not within the range of possibilities.

OLD GORDON AND HIS LADDIRs.-The following
is told of John Gordon, who died, some time
since, near Turriff, Banffshire Scotland, at the
somewhat advanced age of one hundred and
thirty-two years. All the travellers who
CHANGED to call at the neighboring inn of Turrif,
were uniformly directed by the landlady, Mrs.
Wallace, to the cottage of the patriarch, "where
they wad see," she used to say, ''the auldest
man i Banffshire a. the world" Among
the visitors, one day, about the close of harvest,
was young Erglishman, who, coming up to
the door of the cottage, accosted venerable
looking man employed knitting hose, with,
$50, my old friend, can you see to knit at your
advanced period of life2 One hundred and
thirty-two years is a rare age. "Diel's in the
man it'll be my grand father we're seeking-Im
only seventy three yell find him round the cor
ner OF the house." On turning round the cor
ner, the stranger encountered debiitated old
man, whose whitened locks bore testimony to
his having long passed the meridian of life, and
whom the stranger at once concluded to be Cor
don himself. You seem wonderfully fresh, my
good sir, for SO old man 1! doubt not you have
experienced many vicissitudes in the course of
your very long life." "What's your wull, sir ?"
inquired the person addressed. The observation
was repeated. ."Oh,ye'll be wanting my father,
reckon; he's i the yard, there!" The stran-
ger now entered the garden, where lie at last
found the venerable old man busly employed in
digging potatoes, and humming the ..Battle of
Harlaw." II have had some difficulty in finding
you, friend, as successfully encountered your
grandson and son, both of whom mistook for
you; Indeed they seem as Old as yourself Your
labor is rather hard for one of your advanced
age" 1T is" replied John; shut am thanin'
that I'm able fort the laddies, poor things,are
not very stout now"

How CITIZENS ARE MADE.-The rapidity with
which our Courts about election times furnish
aliens certificates of citizenship, and the revolt
ing scenes that not unfrequently illustrate the
prog, ess of the work, would seem to afford suf-
Client ground for the amendment of our naturali-
zation laws. But the investigation that is now
going on in Philadelphia into the late election
frauds in that city develope still stronger rea-
sons for the necessity of such change as will
surround those laws by sufficient guards to pro-
tect the ballot box from the outrages committed
against it, purity The contested election insti-
Prosecuting Attorney, has brought to light nu-
merous fraudulent votes OF forged naturalization
papers. -Four men were examined who voted
though they confessed they never declared their
intentions. The papers in one case were found
by the witness in his coat pocket. Another was
thrown into the voters house None knew
where they had come from. John Cotney has
been arrested for supplying the fraudulent pa

THE EDITOR OF THE LONDON TINES That
mysterious parsonage, of whom everybody has
heard but ofwhom so little is known,the editor of
the London Times, is now in this country. He
arrived in the Niagara, at Boston, on Saturday
last, and has gone into Canada, but intends COM
ing to New York in time to witness the great
stuggle for the Presidency, in November. The
name of this great potentate in the newspaper
world is Delaine; and, like many great poten-
tates in the history of nations he has inherited
his honors. The father of Mr.. Delaine was for
many years sub-editor of the Times, and after
wards edtor-in-chief Of the Morning Chronicle.
The younger Delaine was educated at Cambridge
and served under his father, while the latter
was on the Times, and the father and son were
the editors of the rival papers at the same time.
There arc now in this country the edtor-in-chief
and two of the prominent writer's Of the ''lead-
ing journal" The result win. doubtless be a
much more accurate and temperate view of A
merican affairs in that paper hereafter than has
characterized its leaders in times past.-N Y.

Mrs. HARRIET BEEcHER STowR ON TIE STUMP.
Mrs. H. B. Stowe has been lecturng the Scot

political movements now taking place, as dwell

supporting the Anti Slavery Presidential candi-
date, Fremont,) from whose election she hopes
for great results to the cause OF the slave, not
only in regard to the admission OF Kansas as an
expression Of public opinion, but also because
the President has the appointment of persons to
all the State Offices, and to have all these filled
with Anti Slavery men, would be OF essential
service. Mrs. Stowe (the editor adds,) though
still in very delicate health, appeared, stronger
than on her former visit She visited Koslin and
Melrose, and finally left Ednburg on Wednes-
