The Biters Bitten.

The Wayne county (Pa.) Democrat says
that at the meeting of the Return Judges
of that county, after the Presidential cleo
ton, the democrats undrtook to cipher out
a majority for Buchanan. To do this they
excepted to the returns from three repub-
lican townships, on the ground of in
formality. A rule was established to
make the lack of particularity in the re-
turns from these townships fatal to their
reception. The returns were excluded
Afterwards it was discovered that the re-
turns from three other townships were de-
fective in the same way, and they had to
be excluded likewise. The result was that
the Democrats lost in the operation. The
allowed majority for the fusion ticket was
greater than the actual majority. The ac-
tual fusion majority, allowing all the re-
turns to stand, is 4. Excluding the re-
turns from the six townships, it is 100.
So much The democrats got by trying to
cheat. They defrauded all the electors Of
six townships out of their votes, in order
to swell up a respectable Buchanan major
ity, and all they accomplished was an in
crease of the fusion majority. There is such
thing as being altogether too sharp.

Colonel Fremont.

Whatever may be the current of politics,
Col. Fremont has, in the recent contest,
gained laurels which no mere victory could
have given. He has proved himself pos
sessed of the most eminent qualities of a
man and hero, Maligned by the most
malicious lies, he has not stopped to an
swer them. Assailed in the persons of his
mother, wife and children, in terms which
are only applicable to the vile and criminal,
he has borne it like martyr, and reviled
not again. Amidst a storm of fierce as
saults he has remained calm, nor once de-
parted from the dignity of his position
and the department of q gentleman. The
passage of the Rocky Mountains amidst
the snow of winter, proved him capable Of
courage in danger and of fortitude in suf-
fering, but his passage through the Pres
idential election proves him that rare char
acter-a moral hero. While a shame,
which can never be washed out adheres
to his assailants, he emerges from the con-
flict wiser in conduct brighter in renown.
We were not in favor of Fremont's nom
nation, but if it appeared an error then
the event has proved it right. Nobly has
he sustained the ca,,se committed to his
trust, which has been sullied by no act of
his, but is now stronger and brighter than
ever. 1t is now certain that no other man
could have aroused the same amount of
popular sympathy, and to him has been
paid the highest compliment ever bestowed
by this nation on one of his age. AT for
ty-fve only, while yet young, he has bare
ly escaped an election to the Presidency.
For him it is glory enough.

ct smile"
During all those terrible hours of ankle
ty and dread, his signal gun doomed over
the wild waters, telling its fearful story Of
distress, of danger, and of death. His
comrades fled, strong men quailed, and
cries of agony went up to the heavens, but
Stewart-merer y,aincAed;, and his last act
when the ship went down, was to FIRE his
signal gun, in the lingering hope that some
passing sail might yet learn their danger
and come to their rescue. "His whole con-
duct can be accounted for by the simple
word duty, and nothing else" Il was this
which gave him his .calmness, and inspired
him with courage, and made him superior
to every consideration of personal safety,
causing the name of Steward Holland to be
pronounced all over this great land withad-
miration and reverence.
Let every boy know and feel the sacred
responsibility which is attached to the post
of duty, and let him never desert it. If
all the men composing the crew of9the i'll
fated Arctic had stood by the ship and
her captain, and manfully done their duty,
every passenger might have been provided
with the means Of escape, either in the
boats or on RATS, and the public would
have had the satisfaction of knowing that
all had been done that brave and faithful
men could do for the safety ofthe unfortu-
mates. AS it was, their posts Of duty were
deserted, and consequently found an ocean
grave. Let it early in life become the
vwatchword of every boy, @Fait1fW to du-

OYSTER Trade.

The oyster trade. of Baltimore is of less
than twenty years growth, and now there
are upwards of three hundred vessels en-
ployed in the business, which bring week
ly to the city over 100000 bushels, the
larger portion ofwhich, the american says,
are shipped to the West within twenty
four hours of their arrival. A single es-
tablishment in Baltimore shucks, packs, and
ships 1000 bushels per day, Or more than
100000 bushels per year, excluding the
three months in which the law prohibits
their being brought to the city. AT the
same time upwards of 100000 bushels of
lime are burned. There are large num-
Der of establishment engaged in the yari-
GUS modes of preserving the bivalves for
transportation, and the whole trade far ex-
ceeds 100000 per year. The West
'pays for the oysters" ."-Erchange.

Election Frauds.

The Louisville Journal says that pa
per is circulating in Kentucky for sigma
lures, calling on the Governor to convene
an extra session of the Legislature, for the
purpose of considering the frauds practised
at the late elections and taking some meas
ures to prevent repetition of them. The
Journal does not say what was the extent
of the fraudulent voting in that State; but
it hints very strongly that the heavy ma
jorities in the river counties of Kentucky,
Indiana and Illinois were swelled by vo-
ters who had no right to vote in either, but
who exercised the privilege of voting in
the two that happened to be most conve-
nient.
There can be no doubt we think, that
an immense amount of fraudulent voting
was thus done on the borders of States
contiguous to each other. In all proba-
bility, Illinois has been carried for Buch-
anan by votes smuggled over the border
from Kentucky and Missouri, and it is not
at allimprobable that Kentucky was car
ried in the manner suggested by the Jour
nal. ...-. ~
In Pennsylvania the amount of illegal
voting was unnecessarily large, the demo-
cracy having overrated their necessities.
