a Gigantic Bank Fraud.

New York, November 9.-In criminal
prosecution it has been discovered that
the New England Bank, of Fairmoun
Maine, has issued an immense amount of
notes, upwards of $4,000 worth being
circulated by Wall street brokers during
the past week. The Tribune says there
is no such Bank in existence, and the
whole thing is said to be a fraud from
first to last. Brokers have been furnish
ed with it, and have passed it off in large
and small quantities, as their business
demanded. The whole western country
is said to be flooded with the stuff. and
the calculation is that the projectors of
the fraud have issued about $500 900.

the following:
"Harry Wilbcr and Mr.. Hasoall of the

ond part, in the heat and ardor of the po.
litioal confidence, yesterday, they bad of
the success of their candid Morgan
and unitedly staked the .trength
of their confidence in the following wa
ger: The parties of the first part were to
give their check on the Bank OF Genesee
for the sum of $50, as wager first; and
the said parties of the first part were to
draw a two borsc wagon load Of unbusk-
cd corn into E!Iicot Hall, in the evening
of yesterday, and, with the party of the
recond part, were to bu>k it out during
the evening; and if the parties first afore,
said candidate (Parker) loses bis election
in the State, the said first parties should
forfeit or yield to the second party the $50
wager, and wheel in wheelbarrow all Of
said husked corn, with their own hands.
to the house of the said second party. as
wager second And SO, ulce UerS@. Hence,
we may now expect soon to see Har-
ry, with his colleague, to the music Of
Gardner's band wheeling our riend Thorn

"Sincc committing the above to type,
Harry and HascalI like ~heeltarrow

to Thomas, led OH by Garduer's Band,
playing first Pop Goes the Weasel and
ending up with Yankee Doodle, loud e.
nough to burst their drum heads and split
their fifes."

minnesota Election.

The whole of the State has not been
heard from officially. There is a mem
Der of the House in doubt in the Blue
Earth District, and another in the Brown
and Nicolet District. Aside from these,
the Republicans have elected 49 members
of the House, and the Democrats of all
shades, regular and irregular, %, with
two members doubtful. In the Senate.
the Republicans have lS members. and
the Democrats, II, besides Eli Robson,
Independent Democrat, and Joe Rolette,
who is on his own hook. Counting these
two with the regular Democracy, and the
latter have one majority in the Senate.
On the joint ballot Of the House, the Re.
publican majority will be II, and may be
10! The Democrats in the last Legisla-

An Honest Confession,

A Democratic editor in Tennessee
makes the following frank avowsl
Democracy is progressive. What was
Democracy in Jefferson's time, is not
Democracy at the present day. What
was Dem ocracy in General J Jackson day
is not Democracy now. Aud, indeed
what was Democracy ten years ago, is not
Democracy to day. Democracy is pro-
grcssiye.
Very true. Ga the slavery question
more than any other, is Democracy pro
gressive. We all remember that ten OF
twelve years since the Democracy Of the
North were almost in a body ommitted
in favor of the Wilmot Proviso, which
prohibited slavery in the Territories
Now, the leading feature Of "Dm ocracy'
is that it exacts a population of ninety
three thousand as requisite for the ad-
mission of Territory under free Con-
stituton, while it ia willing and anxious
10 admit toe same Territory, aojth Slareyy,
with only tLirtyfye thousand? Domoc-
racy as progressive!

To DESTROY Bugs.

Bugs cannot stand hot alum water
Take two pounds of alum, bruise it, and
reduce it nearly to powder; dissolve it in
three quarts of boiling water, letting it
remain in warm place till the alum is
dissolved. The alum water is to be ap-
piled hot, by meaDs Of brush, to every
joint and creyice. Brush the creviccs in
the floor of the skirting board if they are
suspected places; whitewash the ceiling.
putting in plenty of alum, and there will
be an end to their dropping from thence.

Mckeen is nearly 100 years of age, and
is the possessor of large amount of real

The Elections.

New York has gone Republican by
over Is, 600 majority. Not single Bu-
chanan member of Congress has been
elected out of New York City. The off
cia canvass in Mr.. Haskin's district is
not yet completed, but so far, the indica-
tions are that he will bave u majority
The Buchanan Democracy are making
a desperate effort to count him out Of his
seat, but we have hopes that they will be
foiled in their efforts.
New Jersey has elected the whole fge
Anti Lecompton congressman.
In Delaware, Whiteley, the Admins
tration candidate is only elected by n
majority.
Michigan has gone Republican by g.
900 or 10000.
Iowa has gone Republican. Massa-
chusctts has gone Republican. The Le-
comptonites are overthrown in Minnesota
Illinois gives small majority for the
Republicans, but the Legislature will be
Douglas Dem. and return Douglas to the
U. S. Senate Even in this Buchanan
is defeated, as be desired to destroy Doug
las, so We hardly know whether to laugh
or cry at the news. This is the result Of
Districting the State. The lower portion
of Illinois is settled from the South, and
and with less population than the north,
which is settled by Northern and Eastern
men, is SO managed as to elect Douglas
men to the Legislature while Lincoln's
friends are thought to have popular ma
jority in the State

The Supreme Judge question has been
