From The n. Y. Express of the 0th.l
what the Election Has Decided.

We are not among those who intend to ig-
more the facts CONNECTED with MIR. Lin
coin $ reelection. We comprehendcd to
what his election would lead four years ago,
and all through August, September and
October, 1860, predicted that secession,
disunion and civil war would be the conse-
Quenccs of the result, upon the Platform of
Principles laid down and the nominees Sc
lcctcd by the Convention held at Chicago in
1860. The EcprcsS did not then deceive its
readers nor the public, and will not dc so
now. Painful as is the confession Of de-
feat, and the acknowledgements of the sec
ond victory of the Republican party, it is
due to the truth to make it. Mr. Lincoln $
success on the Sth of November, 1864, means
--thcn-the accomplishment Of the follow
ing results
lst The Prolongation of the War.
I'd. The Abrogation of State Rights.
Sd. The Continuation of Arbitrary Ar
rests.
lth. The increase of Debt and Taxes.
9TH The Continued destruction of South
crn Property.
9th. The Abolition of Slavery in all the
States.
7th. Continued war upon the Union as it
was and the Constitution us it is.
Sth, The support o! the President IN all
Assumptions OF Power.
9th. The exercise of Martial Law in
States not in Rebellion.
10Th. The presence of the Federal Mill
tary to control State Elections.
/ It'll The Abandonment Of the Monroe
Doctrine.
18th. The denial of justice in cases Of
false Imprisonment and arrests.
18th. The administration of Test -Oaths,
as in Maryland and Tennessee, by military
officers of the Administration.
llth. The keeping up of the prices of
goods in store: thousands having voted for
Mr.. Lincoln in order not to depreciate tho
value of property on hand Prices there
fore are to be kept up and increased.
These are some of the leading measures
involved in the issues decided yesterday at
the ballot-box. We comprehend them all
and we think much better than many of
those who have chosen to act and re-enact
them for the government of people hith-
erto approaching and maintaining their own
and the public liberties. The history of ma
tons, the history of wars, and the lives OF
men who have ruled States and Kingdoms,
are an example for all time. If the m0ori-
ty of the people of these States, forgetting
the great past choose to be governad by
mlltafy power, by inc spirit vi iaualicisii,,
by combinations of the purse and sword,
by bringing the patronage of the Govern
ment into conflict with the freedom of cleo
tons, by the fear of doing right in the
dread of some greater evil thereafter-il
they love the character and rule OF such 4
man as Abraham Lincoln. rather than thu
character and principles of man like Geo
B. McClellan-why then the minority mus
submit and hope for better men and bette
times hereafter. We neither desire to des
pair of the Republic, nor to hang out falls
hopes for the future History and expert
cnce ought to be our leaders; and, guide'
by these, we can easily see where We ar

VIII Lager Beer IntOXiCatc!

This question, up to the present time, has
received no satisfactory answer, although it
has been quite rs much mooted as the bold
query in regard to the marriage of Capt
Schindley, the probable explosive quail
ties of saltpetre; but we think the following
sworn evidence given in Chicago, 10y gen
uine German named lichienbcrgcr, in Il
breach of promise case, will settle the mat
ter.
Q.-llow many glasses of lager beer did
you drink on the occasion Z
Al don't know how many | did drink.
Q,-llow many do you generally drink?
A.-Sometimes drink six glasses, anC
sometimes drink two or three gallons.
Q,--llow much does it take to make 20,
drunk
Alt takes about three gallons of lagc
beer to make me drunk. N. T. Herald

From Rev. j. Newton Brown, d. D., editor Of
the Encyclopaedia of Religious Knowledge,
and Christian Chronicle, Philadelphia.
Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines in general, through distrust
of their ingredients and effects, yet know of
no sufficient reason why man may not testify
to the benefits he believes himself to have re-
ceived from any simple preparation, in the hope
that he may thus contribute to the benefit of
others.

lands German Bitters, prepared by DIR. &. NJ.

against them for many years, under the i'm
preston that they We're chiefly an alcoholic
mixture. am indebted to my friend, Robert
shoemaker, esq, for the removal of this preju-
dice by proper tests, and for encouragement to
try them when suffering from great and long
continued debility. The use of three bottles OF
these bitters at the beginning of the present
year, was followed by evident relief and restor-
alton toa degree of bodily and mental vigOr
which had not felt for six months before, and
had almost deSpaired of regaining. therefore
thank God and my friend for directing me to
the use of them. j. NEWTON BROWN,

AppOIOgising.

Most of the Abolition papers are now,
that the election is over, agologising for the
epithets they have applied to Gen, Nc
CLELLAN and to Democrats generally. We
have nothing to apologize for, We have
said nothing against Lincoln or his party but
what we honestly believe to be true.

DIR. G NJ JaclIson--Dear Sir: feel 1t pleas
ure thus of my own accord, to bear testimony
to the excellence of the German Bitters. Some
years since being much afflicted with Dyspep-
sia, l used them with very beneficial results.
have often recommended them to persons en-
icebled by that tormenting disease and have
heard from them the most hattering testimoni-
ais as to their great value. In cases of general
debility, believe ii to be a tonic that cannot be
surpassed. j. NJ. LYONS

rience enables me to say that regard the Ger
man Bitters prepared by you as most excel
lent medicine. In cases fsevere cold and gen.
eral debility have been greatly benefited by
the use of the Bitters, and doubt not they will
produce similar effects on others.

letters from some Of the most proninen-
citizens Of Cincinnati and CovingtoD, etc.
speaking in the highest terms Of DR.. Strick
lands Anti Cholera Mixture for the cure Of
diarrhea aud dysentery. The letters are
too long to publish. Mr.. Woods, Of Coy
ington, says he was pronounced incurable
by the best doctors in Cincinnati, and one
bottle Of DIR. StricklaDd's Anti-Cholera
Mixture effected permanent cure after
suffering for months with the worst form Of
diarrhea and dysentory..
Another says he was discharged from the
United States service after suffering in the
hospital for s months as incurable, and as
last resource tried StricklaDds ADti-Cholera
Mixture; he got well directly and has now
entered the army again in good health
One writes he has cured seven or eight very
bad cases of diarrhea and dysentery in the
barracks he was in:with one bottle of this
valuable medicine In fact we could fill
half our paper with similar items from
these letters Why does not our govern
ment secure this valuable preparation -
Our aImy ought TO be supplied with it,
Ii is but short time since one Of our men
laid in very low condition at one of our
Cincinnati Hospitals, his wife was sent for
the doctors considered his hopeless case.
She, however, gave him Strickland's Anti
cholera Mixture, and in three weeks he
was able to return home with his wife to
New Richmond, o All these cases right

of their comrades. 1t is for sale by Drug
