The democrats who voted for Mr. Cameron s are Messrs. Lebo and Waggensslerbi Scbuyl. b Kill; and Manear of York. n | The announcement of the vote wins rscev.dl with prolonged applause in the galleries. id
 MT. brown presented protest against tssi ieSailty of the proceedings, which is undsr'g stood to refer to the proceedings of the Sensa'v Tn not eectlng teller at leas. one day De0a A the election, according to law ed
 MeSsrs. Ball and Peurose objected to rscsris ing the protest, on the ground that the S,ie vention kept no journal .r,,1 l Pending the question, Mr Penrsse moved Hi' adjourn, which was lost by tie votG-yeassl nays 66 CT; Mir. Browns motion was then discussed ilg some length by various members, and fins. ruled out of order. oq | The convention then adjourned. ''' l Upon the return of the Senate ,o their char' n Der, MT. Brown gave notice that he would ~ morrow present protest against the le.lIE 'o1 of the election. 'c1
 The result was wholly unexpected by a democrats, and has caused the greatest inds \ nation; while the friends of Gen. Cameron n.,., correspondingly exultant. ar | The Pennsy lvanian of the 14th sA TVS: md
 mat Simon Cameron owes his electisn ae corrupt means no man doubts The air b
 been poisoned for months past with rumon
 ms nlaehlhatlons. His emissares of conu!laT toh nave been dispatched to many quarters fd the State, and his friends have boasted repsa fd euiy that ne had purchased, as meat is bousso in the shanoieS, enough miserable money loo. ing traitors to secure his election. The denso. crats who voted for him could by no possibafo. nave had any other than a corrupt motive
 sustain him. They knew the deep indigushN ther 'reachery would inevitably aron.e .nona :. thelr constituents. It is impossible to coucsir.v oi any patriotic motive that could have urs I them to vote for Cameron. d | There IS nothing in his character bis nr;ps
 pies, hls abilities to win the admiration or < Il cure the support of any man. He has b.d =, other attraction, and could have hal no oth,v| inoucement to hold out to these men, thsr n oaSe pecuhiary one. That Camerop has pas scI chased his election, Is the universal sentimsity oi all parties. How far the disgraceof sdndon Ing nm to the Senate may be ayertdd, as Nrd we oo not know. If the plain fact, which ecd men lnstlnctlvely know in regard to the mssix| aud agencies by which he secured his elect est can be legally established, the United S;s5,ed Senate will owe 1t to its own dignity to spu1 him from that body. It seems Una, proaf ] has already been presented against tile legal ,oI of his election. Upon what grounds it is bas on we do not yet know. But public orinion swh demand that no legal means be left antried hc| baulk this debauched political gam ster Dpel snatch from his hands the ill.go,t leu pssuV which Is dlshonored by his possession of l.
 The effect of this transaction upo1 Mr. ney personally, will be rarher beneficial t'i1I' otherwise. Dear as he has always been to pis democracy of Pennsylvania, he never occuF',r11 r1 so proud place in their affections as he dfe a at this moment. Stricken down by the shso aic] less treason of three wretches, wh ose v'' ',sc' ,' hearts are dead to every enaoblng sentin% In. Ra and will be remembered hereafter Cnly sa a'q despised, and by the factious spirit of ,aro] men from whom the democracy had risH of '] expect better conduct, he is beyond the r h... of their power, and can we'll afford to d"' Fl I their opposition.
