Michigan All One Side.

The Detroit Advertiser of Saturday
gives the reported majorilies in thirty four
counties of Michigan, which really look as
If Honest Old Abe walked over the course
all alone. But one county Of the thirty
four gives Douglas majority, and that is
but 80 in Chippewa. The Lincoln major
tiles foot up 22,063.
The victory in Michigan is complete and
overwhelming, both State and NatianaI.
The Republicans have elected every State
officer from Governor down, the four mem.
bers of Congress, every State Senator but
two, every Representative but eight, and
nearly every county officer! The Legisla-
ture will stand, Republicans 80, Democrats
2; House, Republican 72, Democrats 8.

met in Millersburg. last week. and continued
their meeting until Sunday evening. The GER
emony of Ordination took place in the forenoon

delphia, preached an able, pointed and practic-
al discourse, from the 5th and 9th verses of the
l26th Psalm, sketching in mastery way. the
duties, trials and pleasures of ministerial life.
The liturgical services were well conducted by
Rev. J. B. Baltzly, of Wooster. after which. by
laying on OF hands, the Rev. Mr.. KNIsELY, here
tofore empowered only for year at time, was
elevated to the rank of an ordained Minister.

only for definite periods, while her ordained
Ministers are not thus upon trial.

As the returns of the election in the
Southern States are footed up, it becomes more
and more apparent that the friends of BREoKEN
RIDGE. (who include all the Disunionists, and
many who are not Disunionists) are in an i'm
mense minority in the South. Iti evident that
only in few States will his friends have an
actual majority of the votes pollcd. In several
States his electoral tickets have succeeded by a
plurality and not by a clear preponderance of
Inc popular vote. 1t is now evident that in
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Mis-
souri,, Louisiana, and Tennessee, the united
strength OF BELL and DoueLAs greatly exceed
ed that of BRECKENRIDGE. and in Arkansas. Tex
as, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, and
North Carolina, the former, doubtless. nearly
equalled the latter-so that, after all, the onlv
decided stronghold of the Disunon candidate
is the Palmetto State. Virtually. therefore, the
people of the South have not suffered the

rebuked, and notwithstanding the frequent vic.
lent appeals which have been made to theil

stand against the ultra sectional theories of those
who sought 10 lure them on to ruin, and to break

abolition sentiments. Thursday night he
was ordered to leave the city. Refusing,
he was waited on by crowd this after

and Others a milder course. While the
crowd was so engaged, Thayer was convey

Will Mr.. Lincoln Issue n Mani
fCStO.

There is no Disgusting the fact that
many Republicans have feared that the
clustering South would draw from Mr..
Lincoln some manifesto, or some intima-
tion of his intended course, before the
constitutional day for his Inaugural.
No one who has seen Mr.. Lincoln and
talked with him, has such fear. Mr.. l..
knows what is due to the dignity of his
position and to bis own self-respect, ard
the last sensation he will ever experience
will be fear.
A telegraph letter to the New York
Tribune says:
SPRINGFIELD, Ill.,, Nov. s, 1860.
Mr.. Lincoln is still continually visited by
crowds of well-wishers; not only from his
own party, but also from what was re-
Gently the Democratic and Bell Everett par
ties.
There are many inquiries from abroad as
to whether Mr.. Lincoln will make any
speech or write any letter defining his
views, but up to this he has certainly en-
terlained no idea of writing or speaking up
on this subject. He may, probably, in
case of popular demonstration, make a
brief address, but it will be without prepa
ration, and wholly informal. The only
letters be writes are Of private nature, and
there are plenty of these required.
The telegraph letter TO the New York
Times says:
SPRINGFIELD, Nov. 8.
Mr.. Lincoln is continually receiving ap-
plications from Southerners for office, and
every train brings politicians. Mr.. Lin
coin receives his friends at the Executive
rooms, but visitors must tell short stories.
Mr. Lincoln appears to lake more interest
in the State returns than TO his own sue
cess.

stands: Lincoln's majorities $500 Doug
las majorities 1o,94s, Net Republican
majorities 44,56l; Republican gains since
October election 1905; Democratic gains

them to vote as then, Lincoln's majority
in Ohio must be 1864, against 25,27S
in October for Murray Attorney General.
The total vote in Ohio will be 425, 900;
an increase over October of ever 12,OO9.
Bells vote will be about 10000, and

ON FRIDAY EVENING
Election Returns.

The precise majorities in the different States
are not known. As soon as the grand result was
proclaimed nobody cared to look after the mi
nor details.
In Ohio LISooLSs majority is over 10000.
In Pennsylvania it is $4,000.
In New York over $4,000.
In Indiana over 25,000
In Illinois over 10000.
In Wisconsin over l6.00U.
In Massachusetts over $4,000.
In Connecticut, 10000.
And in All the New England States LIScoIS's
majority is SO large that it is thought by some
that the opposition will deny that there was any
election ut all. LINCOLN gets all the Free States
East of the Rocky Mountains. except New Jer-
sey, which divided her vote between the three
opposition candidates. Oregon it is thought will
cast her vote for LINCOLN, and California for
DOUGLAS.
BREoKEsnIDcE will probably get Alabama.Ar-
Kansas Delaware. Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,
Maryland, Mississippi. N. Carolina, S. Carolina
and Texas. in all 81 Electoral votes.
BELL gets Kentucky and Tennessee, "a votes.
DOUGLAS gets Missouri and 3 votes in n. Jer-
sey. In all votes.

eEThe Republicans had bit of jolliica

The Republicans had a bit of jollifca-
tion in Millersburg. on Monday evening last,
over the result of the recent elections.
A number of Douglas Democrats, forgetting
that it was their funeral, and not their spree,
got little tight, and seduced a few Republicans
into getting tight with them. An Arabian
evening, hurrahing "for de Dou-gal-lass." A
countryman of his, whose face looked like a
green bolona sausage, with the sausage pulled
out, stood. or rather leaned. by his side, ex-
claiming every few minutes, Il is democrat,
hurrah. hurrah, more beer"
Taken all in all it was considerable Of a
-. but We are sorry so many Douglas men got
drunk on the occasion

Election Mt LincOln,s Home,

The election at Springfield, Illinois, was
quietly conducted, and special dispatch
to the N. Y. Tribune says:
Mr.. Lincoln has passed most Of the day
in the Governors House, receiving numer-
Gus visitors, entertaining them with discus
sions upon various topics, not exclusively
political, but sometimes humorously touch
ing upon matters as foreign to the business
of the day as splitting rails.
The city has been enlivened with per-
formances of rowing bands of music, dis
charges of cannon, and other manifesto
tions of popular feeling.
The multitude at the Court House,
where the polls are fixed, was very great
during the forenoon and the early part of
the afternoon; but, toward 8 O'Clock it d.
minished sufficiently to allow tolerably free
passage. Mr.. Lincoln who had intended
10 delay voting until five o'clock, was couu-
seled to take advantage of this oppoituni-
ty. He accordingly, after surveying the
Court House, and the crowd surrounding
it, from his window, and stopping mo
ment to read fragment of good news sent
to him from New York by Simeon Draper,
started out, accompanied by few of his
more immediate associates, and walked
leisurely over to deposit bis vote. He was
not observed by the masses until he reach
ed the Court House steps; but at that mo
mens he was suddenly saluted with the
widest outburst of enthusiasm ever yield
ed by popular assemblage. All party
feelings seemed to be forgotten, and even
the distributors OF opposition tickets joined
in the overwhelming demonstrations of
greeting. Mr.. Lincoln passed through the
ball and up the stairs without impeachment,
but on reaching the Court Room the crowd
gathered about him with such excess of
zeal that it was with some difficulty that
he made his way through. Here, as in the
street there was only one sentiment ex-
pressed-tha. of the heartiest and most
undivided delight at bis appearance. Mr..
Lincoln advanced as rapidly as possible to
the voting table and handed in his ticket,
upon which it is hardly necessary TO say,
all the names were sound Republicans
The only alteration he made was the cut
ting off of his own name from the top,
where it had been priated. As he emerg-
ed after voting, from the temporary enclo-
sure, the manifestations of enthusiasm were
doubled, and Mr.. Lincoln removing his hat
bowed in acknowledgment. Many persons
pushed forward TO take his hand and ex-
change cordial word with him; the rush
was loo great for comfortable conversation,
so he was soon released, and escorted out
with all the popular honors that could be
lavished upon him. He at once returned
to his room in the State House, after an
absence of moi more than five minutes al
together, and resumed his quiet intercourse
with his visitors, as composedly as if he
bad not been the object of as overwhelm-
ing testimonial of public affection as eve
ry man was visited with.

When Mr.. JEFFERSON, after the EXCITING
contest OF loOo. was about to accede to the Ad-
ministration of the Government, and when. as
now, grave fears were entertained for the Der

inaugural address, as among essential princi-
Piles of our free institutions. .c preservation of

Mr. ClskEy:-Permit me again to occupy a

SO far as EsTrLL is the subject. His trying to
screen himself in his last issue behind Van LEAR.
has convinced me that his mate meanness is SO
deeply rooted In the very nature of the animal,
that a reformation is impossible. His dodge be-
hind his friend JOHN VAN LEAR-a man as des-
.tItule of courage as he is of any other manly
principles truly laughable. This VkS LEAR
never stroked my bead. True, he tried the
thing on, but most signaliy failed. AT the same
time saw man with but the use of one arm
make him show the white feather. Now, Es-
TILL. suppose you try 10 contract with your val
liant friend JOHN, TO do what you have not the
will nor ability to do yourself, but my opinion
is. that the woody heads In your party can t
raise money enough to get JoHS into any such

Ucry easy you can contract with your friend VAN

ly you have me frightened, or is it only dirty
trick of yours to screen your cowardly carcass
behind that of another.
l am now through with EsrILL, as the game
does not pay for the ammunition. His last sat-

sEAt the election in Maryland the question
of enslaving the negro population of that State
was submitted to the people. The Baltimore
American thus notices the result: "In all the
counties in Maryland from which we have re-
ceived returns in which the act for the enslave-
ment of free negroes was submitted to the Peo-
pie, the voters have emphatically and signally
denounced that unjust and and unchristian law.
The question has been met and decided with
out any reference to party politics, and the law
is defeated by majorities amounting almost to
unanimity. The result is greatly creditable to
the counties in which the vote was taken, and
honorable to the State at large"
