FRIENDS AND DFHLLow-cITIzHSs: Even before
had been informed by you that this compli-
ment was paid me by loyal citizens OF Penn
sylyania friendly to me, had inferred that
you were Of that portion Of my countrymen
who think that the best interests OF the nation
are TO be suoserved by the support OF the pres
ent Administration, | do not pretend 10 say
that you who think so embrace all the patriot
ism and loyalty of the country, but do believe,
and, l trust, without personal interest, that
the welfare Of the country does require tha,
such support and endorsement be given
l earnestly believe that the consequences oi
this days work Or be as you assure, and as
now seems probable,) will be to the lasting ad
vantage. If not TO the very salvation, of the
country. / cannot at this hour say what has
been the result of the election. But whateV 81
1t may be, have no desire to modify this opln
ion, that all who have labored to-day in behalf
of the Union organization, have wrought for
the best interests Of their country and the
world, not only for the present but for all fu,
ture ages.
l am thankful to God for this approval oil
the people, but, while deeply grateful for this
mark of their confidence In me, If know my
heart, my gratitude is free from any faint o.
personal triumph. do not impugn the mo
tives ofsny one opposed to me. 1t is no pleasure
to me to triumph over any one. But giv'
thanks to the Almighty for this evidence Of tn,
peoples resolution to stand BY free governmen
and the rights Of humanity.

THE PROPHETIC Z" WORLD -

Less than month ago the New York World
indulged In prophecy in regard to the "Novem.
her elections" We copy their predictions 10
order to show what means they used to delude
their readers into the belief that they were
about TO enjoy Democratic triumph:
THE NOVEMBER ELECTIONS.
The result of the elections in Pennsylvania,
Ohio, and Indiana, as we'll as the recent town
vote In Connecticut, settles the question that
the political tide is running heavily against the
Administration.
All the gain Is on the side OF the Democratic
party, and now that the current has fairly set
In, II will move with accelerated force up to
the time the November vote Is taken. The
present is good time, therefore, to present
some estimates of the probable result In sew
eral States when the presidential vote is taken.
The whole number OF votes In the electoral
college (not counting Tennessee and Louisiana)
is ?3l, Of which 1l6 are required to give clear
majority and elect a President. Now, can Gen.
Mcclellan secure 1l8 votesl We think, nay,
we are sure, he can and will; and we give the
following estimates as the basis Of the faith
that is In usi

THos. E. DUDLEY, Esq, United States Con-
sui al Liverpool, gives the following descrip-
tion OF Semmes's new ship: "The English
screw steamer Sea King, built at Glasgowin,
1868, cleared for Bombay, and sailed from Lon
don on the Sth of October, with large guam
tity Of coal, fifty tons of metal, and crew of
forty-scyen men, iu command of Capt. Cob
bett Mr., SlscO, United States Consular Agent
at Dover, says he has reliable information that
Capt. Semmes is to have this vessel. From
what is known at this Office about the Sea
King, independent of the information of Mr..
SlscO, have not the least doubt she is the YES
sci the steamer Laurel is to meet, and that
Capt. Semmes, with the officers, men and guns
taken out in the Laurel, will be transferred to
her. Their place of meeting is not known to
me. The Sea King is a very fast, strongly
built and fine looking screw steamer, built of
wood, with iron frame, and Coppered, about
one thousand tons burden, and two hundred
and twenty-five feet long, one funnel, three
bright masts, ship rugged, with wire rigging,
heavily spared, machinery abaft the main
mast No doubt her name will be changed" :"

of importance, which go far to control the sue
cess of the vessel; but as they are not as yet
fully confirmed by more thorough eIamina-
tlon, we shall not particularize them at this
time. The trial trip yet to come off will de-
eide in one way or the other the claims ad'
vanced In the ships favor. Till then we may

1t will thus be seen that If Lincoln carries
the doubtful Republican, as well as the certain
Republican States, he will still fall far short Of
the needed llG votes.
1t is easily demonstrable that the same per-
centage of increase of this fall's vote In Con-
nectlcut, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, as compared
with last year, will give us all the States In
November save those indicated above as being
certain for Lincoln.
Although in all human probability General
Mcclellan will be honestly elected President
OH the Sth of November next, still there Is so
large a margin of doubt, that Democrats can
not afford to consider the matter settled. All
hands must turn TO and work with a will in the
Jrief three weeks before us. Democratic speak.
ers must be stirring, and conservative presses
must multiply their issues. One earnest and
determined effort will make the assurance OF
victory doubly sure.-New York World, Oeto-
