October Elections.

. No Republican can hope. for brighter
.kies than those which shed light upon the
returns from the elections Of Tuesday
last. In Ohio--gIorious Ohio, clean sweep
is made, and the footing up shows, even by
I.ocosoco admission, Il clean majority OF Ser
entee. Thousand- probably greater. There
will be a "Pugi" to let in the Buchanan
Meeting House, in a very few weeks, in Ohio.
In Pennsylvania, Buchanan bites the dust,
and the sting Of his defeat is the more exas-
perating. Tina, arrow which pierces him has
been whetted and poisoned by his old bosom
friend Forney.
The great living principle of Free Labor, is
onward in its march, sweeping before it, all
opposition, and planting its banner further and
further westward, as it proceeds, keeping even
step with civilization and settlement. In the
States Of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa
and Minnesota, victory is the word, and in
neither of these States, remains the first vesiige
Of LocofOco Supremacy. Evenyoung Minnesota
lends her voice, TO swell tho anthem % freedom
The ST. Paul Times Of the 18th says: Returns
received thus far show the following Republican
gains on the vote of Is5.-Ramsay Co., 800 !;
Hennipen, 500; Dacotab, 400; Rice, 100;
Washington, 100 Anoka, 100; Carver, 100.
The Republicans are known to have gained one
Senator and two Representatives in Ramsay, one
Senator and one Representative in Anoka, and
probably tvo Representatives in Dacotah.
Democratic gain--four in Winona. There il.
but little doubt of the election Of Republican
Congressman, Governor, State ticket, and both
branches of the Legislature.
This news well pays such men as Bingham
and Chandler, CofaS, Grow, and Carl Schurz,
for their labor in that new vineyard. IL is
painful to observe the efforts of the Detroit
Free Press, to soften the effect of this perfect
crash of disastrous news, TO the ears of its
readers. With assiduity to conceal and paate,
it give forth column Of most lachrycose jer.
emiad.

al power, through the Free States, and hence.
forth, so long as Republicans are true to their
faith, judcious in their nominations, and concil
iatory among themselves, there need be no fear
that slavery will stroke its bloody locks again
north of Mason and Dixon's line in a generation.

PROM Europe,

Our advices yesterday by the Arab. at Halifax

The British Ministry have decided on an appeal
to the country through dissolution of Parliament.
That 10 manly resolution, and will commend them
to general respect, Whatever may be the result of
the contest If they should be sustained by the
Parliamentary opstituencies-which is not gener-
ally deemed probsble-their Reform bill will be
carried, and their lease of power indefinitely pro-
loDsed. Should they be beaten, their successors
will be constrained to iDaugurste still larger
measure Of Reform. 1t is not likely that the elect
ors win be content with the vague generaties of
Lord John Rus,ens motion; they viii insist on
specifications, at least in outline. If the dissolu-
ton should only convert Palmerston and Lord John
into Refo,mers in earnest, it will be worth all it
costs. The canvass will be short but excited, and
the result will be awaited with the deepest in-

PLEA FOR COmnON SENSE,

Now that the Legislature is adjourned, and the
Quarantine question can no longer be Affected
either one way or the other, by cock-and.bul
stories of incendisry meetings on Staten Island, and
the pretense of an urgent necessity for measures
TO prevent some new and imminent outragss az
Quarantine, would it not be quite as veil to permit
ourselves TO be influenced somewhat by the sug-
gestiops of common sensei Throughout the
Winter, whenever there has been a probability
of any immediate and positive action at Albany
which should put an end TO the controversy as to
the removal of the Quarantine, tho town has been
frightened out of its propriety BY tbs announce
ment, in q morning paper, OF preparations for new
Sepoy war mole dreadful even than that through
which our gallant army went with so much
honor last Autumn. So lately even as Tuesday
evening of this week, as the Appropriation bill
might still be sent back to the House from the
Senate amended, strong reinforcement
of police were sent to the Island, notwithstanding
the report of the Special Aid Brevoort the day
BEFORE that there was not the slightest reason to
spprehend any outbreak among the Islanders. As
the policemen were sent, however, they very prop
erly did their duty, aud sat sentnels, roOstng in
trees, and placed in other advantageous lOokOuts
all night, to watch for and give warning of the
coming of al event which was about as
likely to happen as that the shad
which came in with the tide should
come ashore at sight of the yellow flag, and ask
for clean bill of health. Would it not be we'll
now to end the farce and drop the curtsn 7 The
Staten islanders are satisfied that Quarantine will
be removed under the old law, for after all, it
not the want of law, but the want of action, that
they have felt aggreyed at, and the latter now, i!
is certain, they will get. The enemies to the
removal of course are satisfied, or ought to
be, that they have defeated the bill this
Winter; host of new oficeholders ere about to
crop anew this deep, rich field Of public clover,
and they, Of courre, are eminently satisfied; and
So, as the number of macontents must necessarily
be small pray let US have peace and common sense.
As the legislators have all gone home, there is no.
body left row who can influence the MISTER either
one Way or the other, whom i! is at all worth
while TO try TO make fool of. Til the first little
bill of 500 000 is provided for, it is as well not to
begin 3 new score unless somebody is to gain
something by it. We would not be illiberal, but
We getting to b. more wasteful of cents, sense
and sensbihty in this matter than is either prudent

No portion of our citizens we're more interested
ia the proposed Reform OF our City Charter than
they were. None were more fully aware OF the
fscts which rendered that Reform Indispensable.
The shameful bargain between the Wood Alder
men and TIE hold over City Inspector was as smoke
to their eyes, and they had, at least tacity, con-
CURED in the application to the Legislature Tor IT'S
overthrow by reorganization of the Health De-
psrtment Of our City Government. They knew
that the more comprehensive Charter Reform bill
was mainly right; that after it had been purified
by tie election of Busted 1t was all right. And yet
Msyor Tiemann was melted TO issue manifesto de-
nouncDs al but shred of il as unjust and mlschiey
GUS and taking ground against the right Legis-
lature 10 initiate, under the circumstances, any
such measure. OF cOurse, the Lesisseure saw
that the principle here enuDciated struck at the
foundation Of the Sanitary as well as the Charter
Reform bill And, while other influences power
fully cOnspired with it, we may safely ssy thai the
MAYORS manifesto killed both the Charter and
Sanitary bills. Cool heads in the Legislature rea.
soped after this fashion, of New York City
wants her Charter reformed, why don't she ask
for that Why does her Mayor, whose powers
Twill be increased by this Reform bill, echo the
" denunciatioDs Of the Aldermen, &c, who are TO

"vote against the bill, or not vote, which is IN
effect the same thing" And thus the bill WAS

This result leaves Fernando Wood. with his ally

has carried all his points, and enters upon the Fall

be Fernando Wood or Republican. And as to
