Pennsylvania Election.

In noticing the result of the Pennsyl-
yaDia election, the Harrisburg Patriot
and Union says: aGeary's majority has
reached l7,178 only through the most
extepsiye and bare-faced frauds upon the
ballot-box. Not only were legal Demo-
cratic voters denied their rights in hun
dreds of instances, in disunion counties
and districts, but .colonizing' was resort
ed to in the most open and fragrant man
ner. The manner in which the disunion-
lists 'colonized' in the iron districts, and
in Indiana and Westmorelapd Counties,
(John Coyode's district,) has already
been alluded to, as we'll as the fact that
the oil counties of the northwestern part
of the State were filed with nomadio
Yankee Abolitionists, who have ell abb
squatulated since the election. Every
Democratic paper in the State has ex-
posed cases of fraud and corruptisn-
some of them shameful and gigantic
perpetrated by the disunion leaders, in
order to .thwart the win Of the people.

Fenian Indignation 1.-THE Acqult-
tai of Nar. Lumsden.

TORONTO, Nov. 5.-There is much in
dignation among the Fenian prisoners
and Catholic residents that the Rev. Mr..
Lumsden should be acquitted and that
Father McMahon should be condemned
to death upon evidence which showed
him to be engaged only in acts of mercy
There is strong additional conclusive ev-
idence now here that Father McMahon
was on his way to Montreal to settle the
estate Of his deceased brother, when he
came to Canada. Strenuous efforts are
being nrde to obtain him a new trial.
Bishop Coke, fron Buffalo, preached
to an immense congregation last night, at
the Cathedral. Rev. Mr.. Lumsden and
his wife wore present, and prayers of
thanksgiving for deliverance from i'm
mense peril were offered up.
Sheriff Jarvis yesterday invited Con-
suls Thurston, Of Toronto, and Blake, of
Erie, with correspondents of American
newspapers, witnesses, and others from
the States, to visit the prisoners in the
Jail. The prisoners are ninety seven in
number and seem we'll. McMahen and
Lynch occupy apartments together. We
supplied them with newspapers. Many
prisoners said they were well cared for.
Father McMahen was engaged in relig.
ious reading. Lynch seemed to be wri-
ting notes to his friends. Diligent ef-
forts are being made by Consul Thurston.

New YoRK, Nov. 6.-The Herald's S
Toronto special says; Mr.. Harrison,
Queens Counsel, received an anonymous
letter from Cincinnati detailing the inten-
ton of party of Feuians who are en-
route to Toronto to assassinate all officers
Of the Assizes concerned in the sentence
of Lynch and Mcmahon.
Considerable dissatisfaction prevailed
among the Catholics at the acquittal of
Lumsden.
Another raid was expected from Buffa-
10 on Saturday night, during the Fenian
demonstrations on the arrival of the cap
tured arms recently returned by Prcsi-
dent johnson.
Mass meetings among the Brotherhood
we're held in Buffalo and Indianapolis on
Saturday night, in which retaliatory
measures were threa tened in case of the
execution of Lynch and Mcmahon.
A new trial for Lynch and McMahon
will be applied for during the week.

tiuued our drive around Montreal Noun

tlnued our drive around Montreal Noun
tain, where we were grati6ed with the
sight of many beautiful and almost pala
tial suburban residences. On returning
TO the city, among other places Of note.
we visited the grand Cathedral Of Notre
Dame, and endured the pleasing fatigue
Of ascending and descending ESQ steps to
the top Of he tower, waich contains the
largest bell in Ameg:ca. This bell weighs
upaards of eleven tons, and will accom-.
modate several dozen tail men with com
Portable standing room inside.
In the evening, having done Montreal,
we took passage in the fac steamer Of the
same name for Quebec, where we landed
the following morning. Here the ac-
comm odating landlords of the St. Louis
Hotel, the Messrs. Russell, soon made Us
feel at home. and after dispcsing of an
excellent breaEfse5, @e cbtaired pass
aud visited the citad5l which irowus above
the town. THIS il aprsg3&1le fortress is
considered second only TO GibraIter in
point Of strength. /; is built on solid
rock of great height, and the approaches
to it are almost impassapie by man. Af-
ter passing around the ramparts, we next
drove out on the Plains of Abraham, the
old battle-f field, on which both the Brit,
ish and French commanders, Wolfe and
Montcalm, died on the same day. On
the spot where he died stands the monu-
ment to the victorious General. About
eight miles from the city are the beauti-
full Falls of Montmorenci, which we now
proceeded to examine. These Falls which
have sheer descent of about 25O feet,
although not SO grand and imposing as
Niagara, are very charming to the eye
Returning, we visited the principal pla-
ces of interest in the ancient and quaint
walled city, and on the next day started
on the steamer Magnet on trip down
the St. lawrence and up the river Sague-
nay.

Politics in the Methodist Church.

One DR.. Holloway, in a centenary
address, delivered lately at Wesley Chap
ell, Indianapolis, said:
"There are over 10G, coo communicates
in Indiana, including the German Meth
odists. It is usual in estimating the
whole population to add three non-com-
municants for every communicant, as ad-
herents of the church, and moments
reflection will convince any one that the
estimate is not too high. We then have
a Methodist population of 100000. The
proportion of voters to the entire popu
lation is as one to six.
X x X X X
"But that no one may question the ba-
sis of our calculation in this estimate, we
place the proportion Of voters at one in
c.eat of our population, and that gives
methodist voters in Indiana 60,GC0. De-
Duct, if you please for Democrats, and
possible over-estimate, (although the
facts do not demand IT'D 10000, and that
leaves an unmistakable Union Methodist
vote of 10000.
"That is to say, take Methodism out
Of the State, and our late election would
have gone against the Union party about
$4,000. Thus, it is apparent that Meth
odism has saved our State from being
overwhelmed by intcmperance, Sabbath
breaking, Romanism, and treason, or by
the self-styled Democratic party
This Reverend Divine would, therefore,
make his Church out a regular political
organization, devoted to the partisans of
one Of the contending parties Of the
country. He bitches it on as tender to
the Radical car, and virtually excomGu-
nIcates all the Democratic members from
it. 1t is certainly singular subject for
congratulation that church has become
mainly political engine. 1t is point
not calculated to help the spiritual inhu-
ence of the Church, and rejects more
credit upon the party zeal of Rev. Hol-
loway than his sagacity. The American
people have heretofore not admired those
churches which have boasted of their
ability to carry elections, land which have
followed the banners of party demagogues
rather than that of the Cross.--Enq.

paper again-the Republican having been

The Democratic majority in New York
is much larger than the whole Radical
vote. The Democrats are nearly three
to one in that vast population. When
We add Brooklyn, which is really part Of
New York, the Democratic majority rises
to the gigantic figure of 55.000l This is
IA, 000 more than was ever given before
at an election. Vast as this majority is,
itwould have been much larger If it had
not been for the obnoxious Registry Law
passed for the purpose of keeping out
its legal vote. But three days we're al
loved for registering. and if person was
absent from the city on those days, or
could not get to the Register, he lost his
vote! This and other stringent quali6-
cations deprived thousands of the right
Of suffrage.
