THE OCTOBER ELECTIoN.-The news
from the Western elections seems to be
very meagre. In Minnesota the aggre-
gate vote appears to be smaller, and Gov.
Ramsay's (RepubIican) majority greater
than two years ago, when it was 1852.
In Iowa it seems to be conceded that
Gov. Kirkwood (Republican) is re-elect-
ed by a majority of six or seven thousand
over Col. Merritt, the Union candidate.
Except in some localities, where the
rattesnake' Democracy threw their
votes away on some especial favorite, Col.
Merritt polls the full Democratic vote,
with the Bell-Everett vote and some
few Republicans. The returns from the
interior come in more largely Republican
than ever before, making sure the con-
tinued success of that party. Hon.
James f. Wilson of jefferson county,
Republican. is without doubt elected to
Congress, to succeed Gen. Curtis. The
Legislature is Republican.
In Ohio, the Union majority steadily
rises with the returns. The following is
the footing of the latest returns Tod

Not only is the army in too great num-
Der of cases badly differed, fed and
clothed, by means of corrupt influences,
but those officers who have capacity for
the posts they hold are hampered, bound,
and thwarted, by prominent and aspiring
civilians, from fear that they may at
tain a reputation in arms that shall over
shadow in the paths Of political glory,
and thus prevent their receiving the hom-
age of the people when peace is declared.
This las been the great misfortune OF
Gen. Fremont, who since he has had
command Of the army Of the west, has
had to contend against foes in front and
foes behind. He has had to fight those
who ought to be bis fTiends-civilians-
in Washington, and elsewhere, and they
have proved more troublesome than the
thousands of rebels leagued in arms
against him. We're it not for these iet-
ters put upon him by such men as Blair,
Missouri would long ago have been clear
Of rebels, the supremacy Of the govern
ment fully established in that state, aud
he have commenced a grand and glorious
march to New Orleans. But when he
has got ready to strike an effectual blow,
his arm has been paralysed by civilians,
and lie has had the weight Of his own
blow. The agents of the circumlocution
Office murdered the brave Gen. Lyon for
whom a nation now mourns and freedom
weeps, and hundreds Of gallant soldiers
have been sent 10 unnecessary graves by
the same Influences. Politics, aided by
the press, caused the shameful route at
Bull Run and prolonged the war six
months. And this state Of things will
continue just SO long as the civil arm is
stretched over the military. Let it aid
il by all proper means. Bot let the army
choose its own officers and fight its own
battles, while we produce, watch, and
. tarry by the stuff"

FIRE IN CHARLFsroN.-The dwell.
ing house of Charles w. Prescott Of
Charleston, was destroyed by fire on
Monday evening of last week. Mr..
Prescott and his wife were both at a near
neighbours at the time, and their three
little children were alone in the house.
Hearing the flames in the chamber above,
the oldest, girl seven years of age, with
great presence of mind, seized an infant
child which was asleep in tie room, her
favorite cat, and her school book, aud
carried them to place of safety before
her parents came to the rescue. Nearly
all of the contents of the house were de
stroyed, including the wearing apparel Of
the whole family. The fire probably
originated from the pipe or chimney in
the chamber. Insured in Farmers Mu-
tual.

DEDUCTION At RARToN.-The Con-
gregational Society at Barton having re-
modelled and much improved their meet
ing house, appropriate dedicatory sery-
ices were performed on Friday, the 1 Ith
inst Although the day was rainy, yet
the interest in the occasion el a good
nunbrr to assemble, and the house was
well filled.
The services were as follows Invoca-
ton, Rev. 5. X. b. Perkins Of Glover /;
reading the scriptures, Rev. benjamin
Pond of Bangor, Tow preaching at Bar
ton; sermon, Rev. VIM. Scales of Lyn-
don; dedicatory prayer, Rev. S. r. Hall
of Bloomington. The sermon, which
was quite lengthy, was listened TO with
undated interest to the close and the
preacher improved the opportunity well
to impress upon his hearers the import
ance-the necessity, even-of maintain
ing the institutions Of the gospel with a
liberal hand, wherever the people would
not see morality decline and barbarism
take the place of civilization. The ded-
icatory prayer, by Rev. Mr.. Hall, was
one Of the most happy efforts Of that aged
servant of God, who has so long and
faithfully labored in the good work Of the
Lord. He is indeed father in the min.
istry, and few are so universally loved
and rcvered.
