THE ELECTION or TUEsbAY-We give all the cleo
tion returns of Bedford County received up to Thurs
day morning There is not much doubt, but that
the amendments have been carried in this county by
handsome majority The peace democrats and al
lies of the Rebels openly opposed the amendments.
Men protesting to be honest, and who claim to pos
sess average intelligence opposed the amendment on
the ground that their passage would confer the right
of suffrage on the negro. Many were deceived by
such misrepresentation into voting against the
amendments. Reckless disregard of truth is the only
stock in trade of modern democrats. 1t shows their
rottenness and want Of principle. We think the re-
suit of the election Tuesday viii everywhere be
regarded asa true indication of the downfall and ut
ter rout of the spurious de mocracy.

Governor johnson, in his late speech al
Nashville. made a capital point against
those old doting conservatives who are
eternally prating about the enoImity Of
turning loose the negroes upon US" He
says:
Il have had some come to me and say:
Gov. johnson, are youin favor ofimnedi
ate emancipation? tell them Yes DO
YOU want to turn the negroes all loose
upon US? What will we do with them? Why
sir. reply, a. far as emancipation Is con
cerned, that has already. taken place
Where are YOUR negroes? They ara running
about somewhere. Says on: What doy
call that? laughter They seem to b.
turned loose. The institution Of slavery l.
turened into a travelling institution, and
goes Just where it pleases.
Now it is said the slaves never can BE-
free and the argument Is, that because
they have been slaves two hundred Year,
they are untitled to be freemen, and shall
not be permitted to enjoy tie privilege
of freemen: but by way Of making them
competent it is proposed to keep them
in slavery fifteen or twenty years longer
In the first place it would not do to have
them free because they have been slaves
and in the next place, they should lave
been kept in Slavery to quality them fer
freemen. Laughter.
And now. proclaim it, the time has
come. God being my helper am willing

Even men who were devoted to the
cause Of Southern independence feel
their courage grow less and less, as the

Last summer, when the people held
meetings in many counties in this State
with view to inaugurate negotiations
for an honorable peace, they were de.

Legislative news this morning is con-
siderably mixed "a little of everything
is being tried, but very little of anything
is being done. The Senate in committee
yesterday took vote On the question of
taxing railroads, and majority of mem
bers were found to favsr the passage of
the bill; in the House there il decided
majority in its favor. A bill has been
passed by the Senate abolishing the State
Board of Education, and is now under
consideration in the House. It will pass
with little opposition.
The Senate committee on The Orphan
Asylum" held joint meeting with the
Board Of Directors Of the Institution, last
night, and concluded to recommend
to the Legislature. . bill providing
for q perpetual appropriation Of FIVE
thousand dollars per annum, instead of
asking an endo Fment fund, as at first
proposed, Several propositions have been
received by the board for the temporary
location of the asylum, and quite a num-
Der of good buildings, in various parts of
the State have been rendered for the use

be in working order" and ready for the
reception of inmates on or about the FIRST
of April next.

snug little pile of greenbacks was the re-

however. it comes from the South.
am reliably informed that by Some
arrangement or other the quota of men
to be raised by Pottawa;ta ME to meet all
demands at present on her has been fixed
at THIRTY. (See Mr. Bells letter which l
forward with this). If our county and
city will now go to work in earnest, offer
liberal bounties and otherwise hold out
inducements to recruits, see no reason
why our quota cannot be raised and our
county cleared Of the draft.
Capt S. H. CRAIG. we'll known to most
Of your readers, is stopping in the city at
present. The Captain looks very like
himself and appears to be in an excellent
state Of preservation. lie is engaged in
the freighting trade from the United
Stases to Idaho, and will be out towards
the Missouri in few days, with large
train.
Delegates to the State Convention
are beginning to come in and from present
indications there will be full attend

Since writing the above, the bill abol-
