PennsyIvania Election.


We have but meager returns from the Penn
sylyania State election, which took place on the
same day as ours in Ohio. The Patriot and
Union, published at Harrisburg, the capital Of
the State, aud therefore in q good position to
understand political matters, in Its issue of the
llth Inst, says
From the complexion of the election returns
from various quarters of the State, we have
little doubt that the Democrats have majority
of the aggregate popular vote, and probably
have elected q majority OF members to the
House of Representatives. The vote In West
moreland county is indicative Of revolution in
the western part Of the State.
It further adds, in another article:
The returns Of the election are not sufficient
to determine the political complexion of the
Legislature; but 1t is certain that the Demo
Gratis have gained largely, and possibly elected
a majority to the House of Representatives. -
We have never known an election of which 1t
was 80 difficult to obtain the returns. The
Democrats have gained Senator in Philadel-
phia, one in Schuylkill, and, in all proba-
bility, one in Montgomery and one In Bucks -
The current of the vote throughout the State is
decidedly in favor of the Democratic party, and
indicates that IL is destined to control the poll
tics 10 this State in the future.

Ddicis OF emancipation

We exPressod some doubt, o fow days sipoe,
as to the practical effect of an edict of enamel.
patton, even II one should be issued by the Gen-
eral Government. IL is very clear that such
document would have no force beyond the lines
Of our Armies unless 1t should come to the
knowledge Of the slaves themselves, and incite
them to insurrection--an even II this we're de.
sirable, We have, up to the present time, mot the
slightest evidence Of any such inclination on
their part.
We fnd an illustration and, to some extent,
Q confirmation OF these views in the failure of
Gen. Fremont's proclamation to produce any
practical effect during the time that il was
supposed to be in force. Except in the case
Of two slaves belonging to Thos. L. snead, of
st. Louis, an aid-de-camp Of General Price, no
attempt was made to carry out its provisions -
Indeed, General Fremont had no means OF doing
30. At the time IL was issued over one third Of
the State Of Missouri was under rebel rule; In
week after, more than one-half Of the State
was subject TO rebel sway; and, besides, at
Springfield, there were over two hundred Union
prisoners, who had been wounded and captured
in that eyer-memorabe and fearful battle of
Wilson's Creek. When General Fremont's
sweeping lamation--threaieDing death and
condscasion 70 every rebel found in arms within
his lines, and freeing his elayeS--Was received
at Springfield, the rebel commander there
promptly sent him the following message,
"For every man put TO death BY Major. Gen.
eral Fremont for alleged treason, as threatened
in his proclamation, will cause tpo Union
prisoners now In my hands to be shot. For ey-
cry slave liberated by General Fremont, be-
cause Of the alleged treason Of his master. L
will cause four slaves 10 be taken from the adj
herents Of the Union within my Department,
and con6scsted by way Of retaliation = -
Unfortunately, the rebel commander had DOW
or to put his threat In execution, ,-and knowing
tolls fact, General Fremont was Of necessity
compelled 10 forego all attempts TO enforce the
terms Of his proclamation. 80,

The Battle at Hatteras.

A correspondent Of the New York HTdld fur.
nishes the following additional particulars Of
the late battle at Hatteras;
FIVE HUNDRED OF THE EMMY KILLED AND
WOUNDED.
At the request of Col. Hawkins, Capt. Lard
ner remained at anchor, to protect the troops
against such superior numbers as were supposed
TO be In pursuit Of them. He, at the same time,
ordered the Monticello to double Cape Halter.
ss, and procaed elnsa along the shore. and see
II he could discover any traces of the enemy.
He had proceeded but short distance, when
the rebels were discovered in full plume, and
within half gunshot; the Monticello opened FIRE
on them at once with shells, that exploded with
the utmost precision, scattering them in all d.
rections, killing and wounding them by hun.
dreds. The enemy consisted of one regiment
of virginians, the Seventh Georgia, and about
twelve hundred North Carolina militia, making
total Of about three thousand men, under the
command OF Gen. Huger, who, 1t Is said, was
killed at the commencement of the Smelling pro
cess. Lieut.. commanding Braine says that be
expended to their account two hundred and eight
cen shells, every one Of which did good service
Two schooners and two fatboats, loaded with
troops, which had not yet landed, or else had
lJuot Ie-cmUbIkeu IOr tnelf return, lDeTt
entirely destroyed By the explosion of Me SHE'LL
thyopa into them, Killing and icoundinq all on
board. A shell entered the side of one of the
schooners, and then exploded, filling the air
with fragments Of the wreck and limbs of bu.
man beings. IL is considered az BEING ,citlin
bounds to cay that at least .fue hundred ,oeyt
either killed or ,rOundsd. Hundreds of the rebels
were seen to wade out into the sound up to their
necks, and when they would hear a shell COM
ing, they would crouch down under the water,
and remain as long as they could, and then
poke up their heads and listen for the approach
of the next messenger Of death, and repeat the
operation. A more perfect trap could not well
have been arranged for their destruction. The
belt Of land where they were discovered, is not
more than third Of. q mile wide, and separates
Pamlico Sound from the Ocean. Their steam.
ers attempted TO come in close enough to take
them of, but q shell or two sent ploughing after
them induced them to keep at safe distance,
and their troops were left to their fate. As
soon as night set in, the Monticello ceased fir
ing. During the night they must have em-
barked, as the following morning discovered no
traces Of their presence. ltis very unfortunate
that Col. Hawkins did not march up the beach
under cover of the guns OF the Monticello
the Susquehanna would also have been along in
that case-so as to have been on hand, snd
either captured or cut them to pieces after they
had been scattered and dispersed by the shells
from the ships.

The winter Campaign.

We may consider, We suppose, the summe'
campaign as about over, for we hear talk O
going into winter quarters.
Reckoning from the bombstdment Of Sumter
and the call of the President for three months
volunteers, to the present time, the summer
campaign has lasted six months. 1t has pro
duced some good results and some rather bad
ones. Its record Is before the country; but we
have nov neither the time nor inclination to
dwell uponit
But what of the winter campaign2 We trust
that this talk of going into winter quarters does
not mean that operations are to be suspended or
even slsckened during the next ak months; but
that on the contrary still greater vigor and effi
cheney are to mark the movements Of the Union
forces, military and naval.
1t Is stated that winter quarters are being
prepared at Washington for sixty thousand
troops. This means, we presume, that that
number is to be retained as guard for the ma.
tional Capital, while the remainder of thu
Grand Army is to be divided into divisions, so'
cording to General McCLrLLAN's plan, and
take the field for active and offensive opera.

Ills gratifying to note that General MiTcH.
ELL, now in command at Cincinnati, has been
appointed to head in person an expedition to

to hear of other expeditions moving southward

It was in mid winter that the decisive battle
of New Orleans was fought. under the gallant

more memorable and more glorious thing, If
we could, during the ensuing winter campaign,
have another like decisive battle fought for the
Union in the same vicinity. Cotton bales, Of

storms and against the bullets of the infuristed

CAMP BARROW, PocAHoNrAs County, Va,
Sept l8.-Since my letter of the 10th inst.
Gen. Jackson's command has had rather an ex
citing and adventurous time.
We had not more than got our position before
the enemy, as we supposed, were within one
hundred yasds Of US, but the road here made
such an abrupt turn and the bushes that inter.
vened were so thick, as to almost hide them
from our view. Pretty soon one or two guns
we're fred, not far from US, when the Newman
Guards, which commanded the road, fred one
volley into the approaching mass of men, which
was quickly returned by them. when their com
mander Immediately gave the order to charge
upon us. Instantly our bayonets were fixed
ready to receive their charge. With loud veil
that rent the morning air for miles around, they
rushed down upon US, when the firing commenc
ed further down the line to the left Of our reqi
ment by those who had at first been prevented
from firing In consequence Of the dense forest
which intervened between them and the sup
posed enemy.
About this time the cry " Georgians Geor.
gians Georgisns !" was heard to proceed from
the ranks Of the supposed enemy. We were at
nrst not Inclined TO interpret this cry as it was
intended by those whence 1t proceeded, fearing
lest 1t might be cheat; and we were strength.
ened In this belief, when, above the surround.
ing noise we distinctly heard the stentorian
voices Of General Jackson and Colonel Johnson
cry out, "Its cheat; they lie; pour into them,
my brave boys )" and we were Just In the act
Of pouring one CALLING fire into their midst, when
we discovered the white badges on their hats,
and knew them 10 be our own men. Two men
Sergeant Fielder, of the First, and soldier,
whose name have not learned, Of the Twelfth
Georgia regiments, were killed; two dangerous
y wounded-T. T. Brown, Of the Newman
Guards, and Corporal Hogue, of the Oglethorpe
