BowING TO Tdr REsULT-The
Southern press generally expresses
itself IN regard to the result of the
late elections in q manner which is
natural under the circumstances.
They are not disappointed in any ma
terlal degree as to the Northern States,
and rejoice that Maryland and Della
ware stand somewhat as q barrier in
the contrast which they present. The
following, from the Richmond E.c-
dm7|er, is a pretty correct reflex of
the general sentiment Of our South
ern contemporaries:
q majority of the Northern people at
this time are unwilling that the South
should participate in the Government
without consenting to tho most inju-
rlous and degrading terms. This fact
has been for some time perfectly we'll
understood at the South. It's con
frmation by these elections will not
produce a scintilla Of excitement
among our people. We have, in many
districts, sent to Washington indivi-
duals who could take the oath, as
they said. The continued exclusion
of these persons from their seats is
not q wrong that excites our special
resentment AS to those who could
not take the oath, we consider them
much better engaged at home, in
attending to their business pursuits,
than in such a Congress as the pre-
sent or the future. In q word, we
bow to the result, and wish our North
ern brethren much Joy in the sole and
undlstlrbed possession of tho Govern
ment, IN managing which they have
shown so much wisdom, moderation
and public virtue
1t is lamentable, however, that any
portion of the American people, anx-
ious and desirous to discharge their
duties to the Government, should
have occasion thus to express them
selves in regard to the action of an
other portion of their couutrymen.

We regret to announce that the
dwelling house of Mr.. William Fl.
Brough, near Mount Carmel, in this
District, was consumed by fire on
Tuesday of the last week. The fire
was the work of an incendiary-a
negro girl employed on the place,
who alleges that she was instigated
by another to commit the deed. The
accused parties have been lodged in
jail.-AbberMe Press.

The Alabama Legislature will meet
tomorrow. Among the important
measures for it's consideration is the
constitutional amendment proposed
by Congress. We presume that Gov.
Patton will recommend its rejection,
and that the Legislature will not
hesitate to concur.
TREASURY DEcIsIoN.-The Solici-
tor Of the Treasury has rendered an
opinion to the effect that incorpo-
rated banks, under the Revenue Act
Of 1864, are liable to license tax only
upon the amount of their chartered
capital, not including surplus funds.

He asserts his independence OF party

THE LATE HURR1cANE IN THE BA-
HAMAs. Tho Nassau Guardian, Of
October 30, is filed with details of
the recent hurricane that visited the
Bahama Islands, on the 1st ultimo.
Commander Cooper states that the
entire settlement on Turk's Island, all
the salt ponds and everything apper-
tanning thereto has been destroyed.
Thirty foreign vessels were wrecked
off the island. At the different Gays,
everything like vegetation and foliage
IS sighted, and presents reddish
tlnge. The Guardian has had COM
piled statement exhibiting damages
inflicted by the storm on the island
of New Providence, from which we
learn that 617 houses were destroyed,
and 600 damaged; five churches and
chapels destroyed, three damaged;
seventeen warehouses destroyed, and
eighteen damaged; twelve shops de-
stroyed, and seventeen damaged; five
school-houses destroyed, and two da-
maged; and one theatre destroyed; (;
l,034 persons were rendered home
less by the hurricane. On the out
islands, the damages were equally
heavy. The total number of vessels
destroyed is ninety-two-ninety-se-
ven were seriously, and forty-two
slightly injured.
