Tn re election of Mr.. Lincoln decides
that the war shall be prosecuted on the
emancipation policy till the rebellion is
suppressed. 1t does not determine that
the war shall be prosecuted till slavery is
absolutely destroyed. But the utter de-
struction of slavery was determined, new
ertheless, by the elections on Tuesday
The gain of Republican members is sufici-
ent to more than complete two.thirds me-
cessary to pass the constitutional amend
ment abolishfng and forever prohibiting
slavery in every State. The amendment
will be adopted by the next Congress, and
tho people will ratify it with eageruess and
delight the moment they can get att. Thus
will slavery be legally and constitutionally,
abolished throughout the Union. This re-
suit of Tuesdays effort is even more inn
portant in its ultimate consequences than
the re. election of Mr.. Lincoln. 1t is the
browning glory of the peaceful victory of
the day. 1t is triumph for all time. 1t
settles the vexed question which has
brought war, bloodshed and debt upon the
patton and precludes the possibility of an
other rebellion in behalf of slavery. The
grand triumph is nearly completed. Let
us thank God and push on.

The day has been found too short for
the untiring stock spectators. They
gather in great hotel, and renewing the
morning strife for gain, Prolong II to the
late hours Of the night, which they make
hideous with their eager aud noisy COM
petition. What care they for wives de-
serted, children unseen from day to day,
and turned nights after nights into beds
unbIessed by q fathers kiss; domestic joys
aud duties forsaken, and all the claims OF
social intercourse neglected, provided they
gain their cent. per cent.
=, It is obvious that when all are seeking TO
make their fortunes ct each others expense,
that most will be disappointed. Each one,
however, thinks that It will be his neigh
Dor, until he aWakes some morning and
finds Il lie himself who is ruined. There
are some seductive examples undoubtedly
of great success, of the rise of poverty to
wealth in the course of q few weeks.
There will be, too, with no less certGinty,
before long, many striking instances of a
fall from riches to beggary. Michelet, in
his chapter on Laws scheme, tells Of one
who was footman at the beginning of the
month, millionaire by his successful
speculations at its close, and again foot
man before the end of another thirty days,
with nothing in possession but his stock
of linen, and nothing in prospect but his
wages.
Il Is not within my province 10 discuss
the policy or necessity of the issue of the
present paper currency; it is obvious, how
ever, to all that the increasing abundance
is the exciting cause, which acting upon q
community singularly prone to the disease,
has produced the prevalent fever OF specu-
lation. Some of the largest fortunes have
been made by those shrewd men, who
from the beginning foresaw the natural eff
feet of redundant paper currency in rails
ing prices; these With apparent reckless
ness, but with real shreWdnes bought every
thing of value they could borrow enough
of money to buy or purchase on credit.
AS the currency deprecated and prices
necessarily rose, they paid their debts in
less value than they had received, and
received greater value in what they had
brought than they paid. The rise in prices
from day to day, as the paper money be-
comes more abundant aud less valuable,
is the great stimulus to speculation. 1t is
advisable for thoss who possess substan-
tial property TO cling to it. If you have
houses, farms, land, or even merchandise
which can be kept without spelling, do not
be tempted to part with them too readily By
the high prices ogered in paper. Again, if
you have currency to invest, do not be
frightened by the high prices. but buy
what is of substantial value, and that alone,
even if it takes great deal of paper to do
1t. Above all, eschew speculation, and
trust not the bubbles which the fatulent
enterprise of the day is blowing so indus
triously.

Win agree that the more vigorously il goes
DO the better, that the interests aud the
honor of the nation demand united aud
vigorous action. While therefore we re-
eOgnize the patriotic intention Iof those
who voted against US, and yet who are
the friends of the Union, We hope they will
equally recognize the paramount claim
that the government has upon its citizens,
aud that we shall join ia one general and
united effort to uphold the Federal author
ity, and to show the men who are contend.
ing against it that they fight against uni

WE have received the first number of the
West Virginia Journal, new paper just
started at Charleston, 7Kanawha county,
and Internationally devoted to the main
tenance and advocacy of the Union cause.
Messrs. Moore & Bro. are the editors and
publishers. From the programme laid
down by them-as their platform of tprinciv
plesr we. make the following extract:
We are UEooNDITIoNALLY for the Union,
and shall give the most hearty support to
the Administration in all measures neces
sary to vigorous and successful proseou-
ton of the war against the rebellion. In
local politics we shall advocate only such
men for Office as we believe to be thor
oughly Union. We believe in the New
State of West Virginia, and shall most
jealousy watch and guard her every inter-
est. Men who have allowed nothing to
swerVe them from their love for and devo-
ton to our county, and such only, should
be entrusted with the interests of our new
State. .G.
The Journals we'll gotten up mechani-
cally, looks lively and healthy, and gives
COED evidence throughout of ability to sus-
tain itself. We trust it may become an
abiding institution in the Kauawha Valley.

PhiIadeIphia ana New York.

These are the two largest cities of Amer
lea. The first is q paradise to live in,
compared with the latter. In all that
goes to make up good society, Philadelphia
is as far superior to New York as light is
distinct from darkness. 1t is not surpri-
sing, therefore, that the former gave 10,-
600 majority for the Union, while the lat
ter poiled $1,000 the other way. The
masses of the people of New York do not
care copper for the Union. They are
Ishmaelites in everything. The intelligent
Of this class study self. They would sell
their birthright for mess of pottage,-
They grow fat on the trade poured into
their laps by the loyal merchants of the
West, and always stand ready to cheat
them in return. Another portion of this
GLASS is made up of the off scourings of all
creation, and the two combined give the
city the character of a very SOdom. The
characteristics of Philadelphia are the op''
posite of all this. Now see how they voted
on Tuesday. Here are the figures:
New York. Philadelphia
Lincoln 36S4i2 bOS35
McClelan........ 1882 al 4so
.lO9,87I 92,82O
UNION majority in ........ $3.50
Democratic majority in New YOrk, S77
The rural districts of Pennsylvania in.
creased the Union majority of Philadelphia
to fifteen or twenty thousand. The rural
districts of New York oVercame the city
majority and gave 1000 to 5000 besides.
When the people come to vote, the honest
yeomanry of the country are too much for
the knRVes, scoundrels and rebels who
crowd New York city. The result shows
where Seymoars "friends, =" who murder
defenseless people, and burn orphan asy-
lums, live, and who they are, and what
they Cincinnati GOzetts.

Old English Manners.

In the reign Of James l., men and women
wore looking glasses pubIicly-the men, as
brooches or ornaments in their hats, and the
women at their girdIes, or in their bosoms, or
sometimes like the women OF the present
day,) in the centre Of their fans, which were
made of feathers inserted into silver or ivory
tubes.
Atfeasts, every guest brought his own knife,
and milestone was placed behind the
door, upon which he sharpened his knife as
he entered.
In l564, Dutchman named William Boo
men, brought the first stage coach into Eng
land, and it is said, the sight Of it put both
horses and men into amazement. Some said
it was crab shell brought out of China and
some imagined it to be one Of the Pagan
temples in which the canibals adorcd the
devils.
The business OF cap wearing was ruined in
1901, BY the common wearing Of hats, which
then came into vogue.
4 Mrs Isabel Danton, Of Leeds, Is said
to have first invented hats and baskets made
Of straw.
In 1854, two rich women desired to marry
the Earl of Huntington for the title. One
Of them offered to lay down 100000 on the
day of her marriage. The other offered f500
wear, during his life, and 5000 in cash,
he to 90 with her to the church and marry
her, and Immediately after the ceremony, to
take leave at the church door, and never to
see each other again.
In Clarcndon's papers is the following:
At Henlv upon the Thames, a woman,
spcaking against taxation imposed by Parlia-
ment, was ordered BY the committee to have
her tongue fastened BY nail to the body Of
tree BY the wayside, on market day,
which was accordingly done, and paper, in
great letters, setting forth the Nervousness Of
her crime, fixed to her back.
