Seven States hold elections this month. In
three they are of but little Importance, as the
results will neither change nor affect political
results. These are Georgia, Florida, and Mis-
sissippi, They were held on the Sd, and went
prO-slavsry Democratic of course. They are
African Slave Trade States as well as Con-
gressional Slave Code. We shall expect to sec
our Northern Democratic journals shout and
gloriiy over Democratic victories in The three
States nared, when returns come in. The
sympathy will be made apparent.
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa and Minnesota,
hold State elections on the llth of October
The results in these States, even in Minnesota,
one Of the youngest Of tho confederacy, are i'm
portaBt in their present and future polite bear
ing. They are free States, and have weight in
shaping the futase Minnesota has to elect two
members Of Congress-, and Legislature upon
which shall devolve the choice of United
States Senator. State officers are also to be
chosen. We anticipate the pleasure of haiIing
young Minneaota as thoroughly Republican
State at the coming election, Notwithstanding
the U. s. officials bring up the ignorant savages
in their breechclouts to the polls, to vote down
the will of the white settlers. Iowa has proved
her claims as a Republican State in several
contests, and will do so again on the l lth. The
Legislature that is to be chosen must elect a
Senator, as Mr.. Harlans time will expire in
1861.
Ohio and Pennsylvania are the most impor-
tant battle fields The results in these great
States will directly bear upon the next Presi
deEial nominations. Ohio must and will stand
firm where she has stood in every contest under
the Republican banner. A successor of Sena-
tor Pugh is to be chosen. and Ohio will do her
duty on the llth. Pennsylvania gave victory
to the Democrats in 1866, and in 1857 they
elected their candidate for Governor by much
larger majority. In 1858 the tide turned. The
LecomptOn business broke up the Democracy,
and Mr.. Read, formerly Democrat, now Re-
publican, was chosen Judge of the Supreme
Court, by about $4,000 majority over Mr.. Pot
ter the Democratic candidate The vote Of
the State, however, was about 10000 less than
at the Presidential election in 1856. Thou
sands of Anti-Leeompton Democrats voted for
Judge Read, and many Democrats did not vote
at all. Tho result on the llth will be locked
for with interest. The Opposition are united
on the few State officers to be chosen, and are
slnguine of success. A few days will end spec
ulations on the subject

Hamilton County AHEAD.--SheFif Kessler
arrived from Cincinnati yesterday, with 20 con
Nicts for the Ohio Penitcntiary. This is the
largest number ever brought in one gang, and
a harder more abandoned looking crowd we
never saw; most of them without coats OF
hats, and with scarcely enough clothing 70
cover their nakedness, they presented wretched
spectacle indeed. There was one woman in
the number, sent for grand larceny. The
crimes for Incarceration were ss follows: Grand
larceny l3; stabbing, S; counterfeiting 2; rob.
berry, 2; horse stealing, 2; burglary, g -Four
are old convicts; one, oolored individual, sent
for one year, had been liberated but four
months, after q long term, and by industry
while in prison, had Sl20 laid up; and gave as
reason for committing crime, that he could
make more money in the Penitentiary than out,
and was disFleased that his sentence was NOT
longer.
The sentences of this gang range from one
to four years, the aggregate being seventy.
seven years; whis there are now lying in Jail
at Cincinnati, fourteen prisoners for higher
grades Of crime awaiting trial, the sentence, il
convicted, of part Of whom will be for life.
This reinforcement swells the number con-
fined to 500, and last night 1866 slept in the
Chapel under guard The Penitentiary con-
tains but 7O6 cells, and the addition If now
completed, has but 80 more cells, which will
still leave Ga to te domicIled in the Chapel -
Nor is this all; the fall term of courts will
supply large additions, and the Warden expects
his striped family to reach 900 in a couple Of
months. The question is, Nhat will he do

Russia FavOrins China.

It is pretty evident that the Russian Besr has
no disposition to see John Bull tear round much
more in the great China-shoP A letter from
the London correspondent of the N. Y. Com
mercial says;
All the private adyices from China, including
those from the American residents, concur in
the undsguised expression Of conviction that
the recent catastrophe was affected by Russian
help. When the peace with China was con.
cluded a year age the news was fund to have
reached st. Petersburgh about three weeks
before its arrival in London. or Paris The
people at Shanghai, therefore, concluded on the
present occasion that we should get an early
communication through that source. There is
ample reason TO suppose that the disaster has
been known for some time by the Russian
Cabinet, and that the closest secrecy has been
preserved

A s0ulh CarOlIna senator,s speech

U. s. Senator Chestnut, of South Carolina,
was rendered public dinner by his constitu-
ents in various portions of the State, given at
C1mden, Sept. 2sth. He made a political
speech Of course, for Southern politicians very
seldom make any other. 1t has been printed
In the Charleston papers, and as usual, Senator
Chesnut predicts a coming storm to the South,
and sees only portentous clouds in the horizon
He declares he ''cannOt perceive those bright
tintS with which many gild the future of the
South" and then proceeds to discuss tn, vari.
Gus questions at issue in the coming Presiden-
tial campaign, taking the now common ultra
Southern ground. In regard to the re opening
of the African slave trade, however, Mr. @.
says;
The proposition to re open the African slave
trade has not attained strength enough to di-
vide the South / regret, however, 70 see it
introduced. With great Difference to the dis
tingushed gentleman who urges it, it seems to
me as another Pandora's box, without even hope
at the bottom. As measure ofpublie policy
1t is altogether imprRcticable ct this time. The
Stete gave the power to Congress 20 prohibit
it, Congress has done so. Until the obligation
is cancelled, South Carolina will not put in the
plea of non est faetum, to her own bond. If
urged az a political issue in the South, it will
divide the State Rights party from the Sabine
to the POtOmac--from the Atlantic to the Mia
slssippi 1t becomes our wisdom, therefore
in the present condition of affairs, to let il
sleep.
He cOunsels union among the people of the
South, remsrking that if they cannot, with all
The motives which now press on them, unite in
the Union, how can they expect to unite out
of it, il driven to that extremity.
He alludes as follows to the Presidential
campaign:
The present indie atoms are, that the South
is glrding on its armor for the contest in 1880;
that there iS counselling among its members as
to the plan of battle; and that il intends TO
hght with rugged energy that will allow no
defeat. trust It will sanction no other princi
pies than those jf the constitution, which are
broad enough TO embrace every true man in the
republic; in fact, let the battle be for the con.
stltution and against the enemies of the con
stitntlon, and not merely for the election of
Fresldsnt In my opinion, the election of a
President will be of little or no avail. unleaa il
bring with 1t a sentiment that will replace the
constitution firmly on its basis, and thus estsb
lish the equality Of the States and the rigbts
OF bosh sections alike-OtheTwise the battle will
recur with greater odds against US. In such a
contest will heartily join with those in whose
fate l am bound, however little ] may expect
from the result.

DIED--In Southampton, England August
80, whittier he had gone for the benefit Of tn ,
sea-voyage, JoHN L. SEVERANCE, of Cleveland.
Ohio, native of Shelburne, Mass, and brother
of I. G. Severance, of this city.
Our friend and brother was one of those rare
n lures, in which the manly virtues are united
with the most delicate womanly tenderness and
purity. Gifted and genial to a remarkable de-
gree, be won his way without conscious effort
into all hearts and circles, "making sunshine in
the shadiest places" and,was lovingly attended
and sincerely mourned by the strangers, made
friends by so brief an acquaintance, in the for
eign land where he died, after two weeks
serious illness.
Only in our own free, chivalrie Christian
land was the sanctity OF his sickness invaded
by discoDrtesy and severity-where, having
sought refuge in Aiken, s. O., from the rigors
Of our Northern winters, he was suspected of
the authorship of that trenchant description OF
the peculiar institution" which set the guilty
community ahame,-irom whose summary ven
geance the heroic avowal of the brave woman
who penned it alone saved him.
But, after a manful and weary conflict of
years with the hereditary disease, an invAlidism
invaded by no repinings or discomfort, he is Rt
rest
His last lines speak of che probable result as
-onlg going nome, he mas tIunu lhe heaVen-
! ly Home, but has lett the earthly one, alas how
desolatel-a home to which, with the nobest
generosity, the four brothers had been welcon-
ed in their early Orphanage; in which the deep
est and purest love Of Father, Mother and
Sister, had replaced that of the natural ties so
early rent; and to which he, with the two
brothers "gone BEFORE" has left the most
beautiful and cherished memories, to assuage
the bitterness of bereavement
His death was peaceful and cheerful as his
life had been, and preceded by gmptes Of the
"glOry about to be revealed" which the relA-
tive who accompanied him writes were an un-
speakHble comfort to him.-BOstoR Libsrator,
