Tho Philadelphia Election.

The Ga@eHe of Monday, following in
the train of some of It's associates
throws up its cap and shouts "hnrrah.'
over the late charter election in the
city of Philadelphia, and claims it as a
great rcbukc to the Administration for
its Kansas policy.
Our Mercurial friends are frequent
ly in the habit Of crying ont before
they are hurt, and still ottener, of crow
ing before they have conquered.
Now the truth, is that the Lecomp-
ton question, had nothing whatever to
dolwith the Philadelphia clections.-
Authentic adviccs, which we have
from that city, state that it was not
made an issue, did not enter into the
contest and did not alter tho vote of a
single nan at the polls.
The subject was not discussed by
the Democrats their sentiments
were known--they had spoken at the
meeting in Janye's Hnll, IN favor of
the pacific course of the Administra-
ton but they thought-howcver con-
fident they were of their strength
that there was no good reason for
bringing it into local election.
The question was ignored by the
Know Nothings, by whose votes the
election was carried. That, in the
city Of Philadelphia, as body is op-
posed to the negro equalization doct-
rines of the Republicans. They rcfus-
ed to consider the question or the re-
suit would have been different.
The battle was fought blythe Demo-
Gratis and Lnow Nothings entirely up
on local issues, and it was upon local
issues that the Democrats were beaten.
The Republicans, Of course, attempt
ed to make the Lecompton question: n
issue, even as they have thrust" bleed
ing Kansas" into every election for
township constable and of School dis
trict, trustees, during the past four
years.
The fact that whatever the result Of
the Philadelphia election might be, il
could exercise no influence upon the
Kansas question, was sufficient reason
why it should not be allowed to enter
into the contest.
Kansas is "played out" and the
sooner our Republican friends discover
the fact the better it will be for their
future political prospects.
If our friends Of the Gazette, wish to
crow over the triumph of the local
policy Of the Republicans in tie city Of
Philadelphia, no one will take the
trouble to interrupt their music.
But if they presist in claiming it as
an anti-Lecompton victory, we shall
soon expect to hear them growing over
the defeat Of Mr.. Ramming, n the
late election for school oflcsrs, y q
gftss ,eaks Is DO Admialstsaslsn.
