FRIDAY MORNING, NOV. 9th, 1860.
TIE ELECTION Of Tuesday was the most

THs ELECTION OF Tuesday was the most
quiet of any we have ever witnessed in the
State. 1t was fully as orderly as an cleo
ti0n in New England village No drunk
eness, or noise disturbed the dav. Men
went to the polls, voted, stepped back, and
went away, like man. The sobrietv and de-
eorum witnessed are in great degree to
be attributed to the judicious action of the
Board of Supervisors in establishing the
polls at the Court House, out of the usual
beat of the beisterous, and away from the
immediate vicinity Of bad whisky. The
example Of placing the polls at the Court
House we hope will be followed hereafter,
it having been found productive of good
results
The vote was considerably less in this
city than was expected. But l422 ballots
went into the box. OF these, Lincoln re-
ceiyed 624, Douglas 4s8, Breckenridge 22l.
Bell 10, 1t is probable the vote of the
county is diminished one in consequence
Of the heavy emigration TO Washoe.
Lincoln's 7ote in this city, it viii be seen
is much larger than we have ever set it.
In our estimates heretofore, the Republican
vote of the entire township was given at
$50 The vote of the city alone is II
above those figures

"NoRToS l, EMPEROR" seems to have
considerable method in his madness. We
copy his last decree, from the Mirror:
WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois.
is endangering the peace and retardng the
prosperity of the citizens of the United
States proper, by persisting in aspiring TO
the Presidential chair, and by offers Of i'm
mense bribe to obtain votes for the said
Presidential chair, against the honor and
dignity Of our good and loyal subjects
Now, therefore, we do hereby condemn the
said Abraham Lincoln to be banished for
ever from our dominions, under penalty OF
being SHOT for violation of this our decree.

DIscoURAGISG.-Late intelligence from the
oil d.stl lets of western Pennsylvania reveal
the fact that the celebrated Tideout well
stopned flowing over the top, after throw
ing out some two hundred barrels day.
The famous Crosbey well has dwinded
down from seventy barrels day to six or
seven, but the owner thinks the failure Is
attributable to the filing of the pump. and
hopes to do better when it is cleaned. Out
of two hundred and seventy wells on the
creek. above Titusville, only thirty-four are
pumping oil, and many of the oil seekers
arc just now in state of very anxious sus-
pense.

WHAT THE HILLS ARE WoRTH.-Two years
ago Frenchman who was tired Of unre-
muneratiye mining, conceived the idea of
planting q vineyard on the summit and
sides of high hill near the old camp of
Esperanza. His first care was to secure
water for irrigation, which be did by con-
ducting the waters of large spring five
hundred yards distant, to the summit of the
hill, where he had banked up a reservoir of
sufficient capacity to answer his ends. He
then put out 1000 yine-slips, and the next
year G,000 more-making in all 5000. They
have grown well; his water facilities are
ample for twice the number of vines he has
planted, and we are informed that his grapes
are of the very best quality for wine-per-
haps the best in the county. Next fall he
will make several pipes of wine, and year
from that time the wine proceeds from his
vineyard will bring him in an income ample
for respectable support This is what in
telligent industry can do with the hundreds
of dry, sterile looking hills, that superficial
thinkers coudemn as waste land.-San -An-
