affair on the Mexican coasts, which resulted
in the capture Of the Gen. Miramon and Mar
aues de Ia Habaua With the steamers were
then six moriars, six 24pounders, 1000 stands
of small arms 1900 shells, and other NUM-
lions of war in proportion. The prizes, in
all. cannot be worth much less that $4,000,
putting the steamers at their lowest vaiua-
ton. The Gen. Miramon, however, is said
to be very badly injured. The Saratoga's
frs; broadside completely riddled her, and
in her attempt to escape she afterwards run
aground 1t was two days before she was
gotten OF, and On her passage up she again
broke down and had 70 be towed inside The

This is very important matter, and we

made suitable for the purposes of such an IT.

but are satisfied that the word " expense "

The Presidential Election

Without doubt we shall in the next issue
convey the agreeable intelligence to our readers
of the election of Lincoln and Hamlin as Presi-
dent and Vice President Of this Nation for four
years from the 4th of March, 1861. Election
occurs in each State in the Union on Tuesday
next, November 9th A plurality of tho votes
in each State elects except in Georgia No
matter as to how large the majority, or rIurall-
", fifty thousand plurality in New York will
not count more than one thousand, each State
must have plurality Of its own votes to elect
its electors. As we do not votes for President
direct. but for electors we must vote for those
whom we know will cast their votes Alright for
President and Vice President, when they arrive
at Washington. We confess to u little uneasi-
ness in regard to New York, but it is more than
probable that shewill give Republican major
iiy Of some $4,000. The conglomeration union
party are, however, making every effort and
spending millions of money to carry the State,
and if the foolish bugaboo Of Disunion raised
by the South has its intended effect the voters
Of the State may be hired OF frightened to stay
at home, and thus the Repu blican majority be
smaller. We expect the vote of eve ny Northern
State, with possibly the exception of California
and Oregon, which will give Lincoln and Ham
lin nearly two-thirds the electoral vote " It'll
tbegaeitics fer telegraphiug which the country
now possesses, nearly every Northern State
p.ast of the Mississippi will be sufficiently hearc
from TO indicate to certainty how the election
mas gone BY Wednesday morning 1t will b.

ana and Pennsylvania send greeting over thu
I lightning wives that they are true to Freedom
and the Union and if but these States ar
heard from it will settle the final result.

ssTHE ELECTION OF JUDGE.--By reference to
tho Legislative proceedings, it will be seen that
Chief Justice Redfeld has retired from the
Bench, and that Hon. L. p Poland has been
elected in Ills stead. The other Ju dyes are the
same as last year with the addition of the new
Judge, Hon. Ashael Peck of Burlington, We
had expected the election Of Mr., Redfeld, of
this place, but when we take into consideration
that he belonged to the other than Douglas
wing Of the Democratic party, and consequent
ly, could not receive the Democratic strength
of the Assembly, and, on the other hand, the
Republicans have disliked his brothers Toliti-
cal notions, and further, that he was supposed
to be Ineligible to the Office on account of being
Post Master, the result is not at all strange
We understand that Mr.. Poland has pur-
chased the dwelling near Judge Prentiss es-
tate in this village, and intends becom ing cit
izen of Montpelier. Mr.. Peck wi IL also reside
temporarily here.
