Municipal Elections.

In Cincinnati, the Democrats elected
their entire ticket. on the I'd. The En-
quirer says of the election: The result is,
the Democracy have swept the entire city,
having elected every officer and gained five
members of the Council This is the first
time since 1855 that the Democracy have
carried the municipal election in this city.
Last year the majority against us for Mayor
was two thousand"
In Dubuque, HENRY L. Stout, Republi>
can, has been elected Mayor, by small ma
jority, over SPoTTswooD, Democrat. The
Republicans also elected their Marshal, and
the Democracy the remainder of the city
officers.
In indianapolis, the Republican ticket
has succeeded by about 200 majority.
B. F. POTTER, Republican, has been
elected Mayor of Schenectady, N. Y, by
200 majority.

Connecticut Election.

The contest in Connecticut has resulted in
the election of the Republican candidate for
Governor by very small majority. A
despatch dated New Haven, on the Sd, sets
down the Republican majority at 53l ; but
later despatch, from the editor of the
New Haven Register, to the New York
Journal of Commerce, says :" The contest
for Governor is very close. SEYMOUR is
probably defeated by less than 200 MAORI
ty!" The Republicans have carried the
Legislature-the House standing 142 Re-
publicans to 80 Democrats, and the Senate
13 Republicans to 7 Democrats, and one
district doubtful.
In Middletown, SEYMOUR had 200 major.
ity, in Hartford $40, in New Haven 685,
in Bridgeport 81, in Waterbury 135. He
made gains in every portion of the State,
but not sufficient to overcome the Republi-
can majority. We can heartily congratu-
late the Democracy of Connecticut, not
withstanding their defeat, upon the gallant
struggle they made to redeem the State,
and the large gains secured for their noble
leader in the campaign.

Mr.. Gilhllan's Bogus Tickets.

Mr.. G1F11LAN is still positive that some
of his bogus tickets were polled, but we
Judge the voters he and his friends antici-
pated deceiving were shrewd, and discover
ed the little joker" prepared for them,
before rendering their ballots to the judges.
The election officers of the various wards,
both Republicans and Democrats, unite in
asserting in the most emphatic terms, that
no such ballots as those so infinitely described
and enumerated, in Mr.. GLFnLAN's pro-
test, were cast in the city.
Some of Mr.. GILFLLAN's friends assert
that be had nothing to do with the printing
of the fraudulent tickets. This may be true
or false; but does not the fact that he shows
a willingness to take advantage of the
knavery of bis friends, connect him with the
transaction as principal-as the principal
in guilt
We do not at all regret Mr.. G. D.
G1LF1LLAN's protest. If he can stand it,
we rather think the Mayor elect, Col.
PRINCE, can.

The Wisconsin Election --Dem0cratic
Victory in Milwaukee.

At the election in Milwaukee, on Tues
day last, Hon. WIN. PITT LYNDE, for Mayor,
and his associates on the Democratic City
ticket, were elected by majorities ranging
from 1000 to 1000. The Republicans ran
strong man against Mr.. LYNDE, and were
confident of success.
On the same day the election took place
in Wisconsin, for Chief Justice of the Su>
preme Court. The present Chief Justice,
DIXON, ran as an Independent candidate,
receiving the support of the Democracy.
The Republicans nominated A. SCOTT
SLOAN, who pledged himself, in his judicial
Office, to nullify and disregard the fugitive
slave law. The returns indicate the election
of DIXON, who is conservative man. In
Milwaukee county, his majority is nearly
1000,

wrote it; but, on the reverse, quite amiable
and mild. We will not think that out Of
the sweet milkiness of our temper, has
proceeded such a Prussic acidity of ruin. 1t
don't stand to reason, and it isn't according
to chemistry.
But, in all seriousness, do the friends of
Senator RICE, who are circulating this fool
ish report, stop to think of the ridiculous
and contemplate attitude in which they
place that gentleman Is it a fact, that
the Senator's reputation is so questionable
in Washington, that the mere suggestion
made by paper two thousand miles away,
that, if certain appropriation passes Con-
gress, he ought, as matter of equity, to
receive F." ten or dozen thousand dollars
is our State represented by man so char.
acterless. that SO slight connection of his
name with meritorious public project, is
enough, of itself to defeat it? The Sena-
tors friends do him great injustice, while
they compliment US over>heartily. We do
not believe that the Senator is so weak and
contemplate as his friends would make him
appear, nor that we are so powerful and
dangerous, as to be at once able and dis
posed to knock the Senate of the United
States into cooked hat by chance para
graph.
So, we don't think the custom house has
entirely gone up, yet. We believe the ap-
preparation bill will pass, if Senator RICE
and the balance of our delegation really
desire it to, and that the thirty thousand
dollars will yet be realized, according to the
original programme.

Some weeks since, the St. Anthony N

Some weeks since, the st. Anthony News,
orthodox Republican, charged that you, the
editors of the consolidated, who claim to be
so virtuous, so disinterested, so pure Of heart,
and all that sort Of thing-that you, Messrs.
Editors, had attempted to bride member
of the last Senate, by offering to him as an
inducement for his vote for State Printer,
that you, you, the editors of the Minnesotian,
would secure the reconsideration of certain
defeated Railroad bill, which the Senator
aforesaid, had great desire to become
law. You thus manifested willingness to
bride Senator to vote for you for State
Printer, by bribing other legislators. You
proposed embarking in the wholesale trade,
at once.
This charge, made by so respectable au-
thority as the st. Anthony NeDs, you de-
nounced with virtuous indignation, posi-
lively thrill ling, as an outrageous falsehood,
manufactured out of whole cloth, and called
for the proof. You did; you know you did,
THOMAS and TIMOTHY.
Well, the St. Anthony NesUs responded a
week ago, gave the name of the Senator
you approached, and circumstantial details
demonstrating the truth of its charge.
Since which time, the Minnesotian and
Times has not been heard from. We may,
fboroforo Id %lo h., - IL
is true. So, then, THOMAS and TIMOTHY,
you are not quite so honest, after all, as you
have pretended to be. Your purity is not
above suspicion. Even " the Forty" could
afford to take few lessons from you. But
how terribly bad Brother BANNING will feel
when his virtue is shocked by this news
Alb, THOMAS and TIMOTHY, you should have
thought of that.

A Significant Sign.

On Monday the 26th, Mr.. BLAKE, a black
Republican Representative of Ohio, intro.
duced into the House the following pream.
bic and resolution
"WHEREAs, The chatteling of mankind and
the holding of persons as property is contrary
to natural justice and the fundamental princi.
pies of our political system, and is notoriouslv
a reproach to our country throughout the civil.
lied world, and a serious hindrance to the pro.
gress of liberty throughout the nations of the
earth; therefore,
"REsoLvED, That the Committee on Judicia.
rry be, and the same are hereby, instructed to
inquire into the expediency of reporting bill
giving freedom to every human being and in.
terdicting slavery wherever Congress has the
constitutional power to legisate upon the sub.
ject."
Though the resolution is not very definite
in terms, it was understood in the House as
designed to reach slavery in the States where
it exist by law. Under this understanding
it received the votes Of si1ty black Repub
lican members, or more than one half of the
whole Republican force.
A more significant sign of the aggressive
character of black Republicanism has moi
appeared since the widespread sympathy
which was exhibited throughout the NORTH
for old BROWN in the misfortune that befel
him at Harpers Ferry.
Among those who voted for the adoption
of the resolution were Messrs. ALDR1cH anc
WINDOW of this State.

Here, then, we see the important fact,
that the production of cotton in our coun>

featured, and amounts to four times our min
