gentlemen the articles he should vote for,
was shown a list in the hands of Senators
Pomeroy, giving the articles Senators had
agreed to vote for On this, Ross was put
down for the first, second, third, eighth and
eleventh. Ross said that was right, except
the eighth. .Pomeroy then drew line
around tile eighth, and Ross then said he
would stand by the rest. This he repeated
at Pomcrny's house at 6 O'clock in the even.

The Result of the Election.

We publish today General Orders No. SO,
from Maj. General Candy, announcing the
result of the recent election in this State. ,e
This seems to be an appropriate time for
bearing testimony to the just and impartial
manner in which Gen. Candy has endcavored
to conduct the elections in this State. We
are satisfied that he has discharged his
whole duty to the best of his ability, and
that he and other worthy officers. who
might be named, are not responsible for the
injustice perpetratcd in several. of the
Counties-we might add many Of them
by the Rebel leaders.
1t is sufficient for the present that we have
carried the State by very large majority.
1t will be for the State authorities to see to
it hereafter, as they certainly will, that
elections are free in this State, and that
petty despots and vile traitors are not per-
mitted, under any pretence whatsoever, to
intimidate and browbeat the honest poor in
their exercise of the right of suffrage.
A careful analysis of the Senate shows
3S Republicans to 12 Rebels, thus giving a
Republican majority in, that body Of 36.
u A careful analysis of the House of Repre-
sentatives shows8 80 Republicans to 40 Rebels,
thus givinga Republican majority in that
body of 40. t.'-' '3n .-',' zi,gl .

Ofthe eighty-nine counties about sixty, we

Mrs. Judd, of New Haven, n poetess,
is seeking divorce from her husband
who is clergyman and LID. As
vet we have but the statement of Mrs
Rev. DIR. Judd. The trouble seems to
have arisen about one Susannah, sort
of q general servant or housekeeper
We hear of her as having fine artistic
taste, which she displayed by design
ing an advertising cut for o patent soap,
uHd also q decided preferences for Rev.
Judd, LID, which she showed by per-
scouting his wife. She it was who
made the poor woman's tea weak.o de
MED it altogether, while the Doctor fed
her on raw beef, raw potato and un.
cooked sausage. She persisted in max.
ing the Doctors bed, and when his wife
desputed her privilege, "pelted" her,
and received stab from pair of scis.
s0rs in consequence. TherenpOn Mrs,
Judd says she felt much relieved, but
she was locked in her room by the Doc
tor and watched by some half dozen
men, one of whom she yainly attempted
to bribe with jar of preserves. Her
ability to take care of herself is attest
ed by the fact that she has been twice
married, has written book, and is part
owner of patent specific pill, ," for the
sale of which she keeps store.

Why do Fanatics of kTery Feather
Flock to the Republican Party.

A correspondent sends us these sug-
gestive inquiries:
Can You answer or explain why all
the spiritulists, free-loveIs, table-tip-
pers, and transcendentalists who hap
pen to be either citizens OF residents of
of the United States, are to be found in
the ranks of the Republican (ultra Abo-
litiOu) party'
More than this-how does it happen
that all the agitators in church instltu-
tions, men who oppose church constltu-
tions and laws, and openly violated
them after taking the most solemn obi
cations to sustain the constitutions and
obey the laws OF the church, are also in
variably to be found in the ranks of the
same Abolition Republican party Is
there not something both singular and
suggestive in these facts! Do they not
furnish a text from which the causes of
all our national troubles may be eX-
planned
The above appears in the New York
World. If for any reason the above de-
scription is admitted to apply to the
Republican party, il answers itself. 1t
is more interesting to know that the
fact exists than to pursue the cause.
The Uorld, however, endeayors to sat-
isfy its correspondent in labored re-
ply, of which the following is the con-
clnsion:
This being q period in which the ino-
waiting spirit has broken loose and runs
wild, the minor squads of fanatics nat
urally hang about the 'skirts Of the
main army, seeking its countenance
and protection, and foraging in its
neighborhood. They are all inspired by
one common spirit ofinnovation. They
have all the same passion for domineer-
ing over others, and forcing their no.
tions and practices upon society. They
have all the same uneasy craving for
excitement, the same adherence OF
quiet, the same valgar lack OF reyer-
ence for any thing which is esta b!ished,
the same incapacity for cool reflection.
When innovation proceeds to such ex-
travagant lengths, it is the certain fore
runner of reaction. After the wild
sects which were spawned in the last
days Of Luther, Professionalism made no
further progress. The extravaganza OF
the Roundheads reconcilsd the Eng
lish nation to the restoration Of the
Stuarts. France accepted refuge from
the madness of her revolutionists be-
hind the throne Of Napoleon. And the
signs are neither few nor obscure that
this country is becoming fatigued and
disgusted with, the Radicalism which
has proceeded 10 such pitch In our
politics. God grant that the reaction
may not carry us to the other extreme
of irrational adherence to past which
the country has in some respects out
grown! ---.--

The London OIL furnishes the follow

The London Opi furnishes the follow
ing late naval intelligence: 'The Ark
was built in Messrs. Shem & Japhet's
yard, toe foremost shipbuilders of the
period. At her launch, though from
her size and build, it must have been
clear that she was destined for rongh
service, and not for mere coasting,
which was then the only trade, no re-
moustranee seems to have been ad-
dressed to those in authority. She was
a three-decker and gopher-plated. She
was fully previsioned; evidences were
ample that she had no intention Of put
ting into any port, but that her mission
was TO keep the seas for an indefinite
period. At the end of her cruise moth
ing besides herself was left On the sur
face of the ocean. She held undisputed
sway. Yet her owners were never called
to account for these results There is
a tradition that one of the firm on board
named Ham wanted TO hoist the black
flag, but was speedily rebuked by the

Union Soldier. and their Uses.

Tie power and plundsr party of this
State seems to have very limited ap-
probation of the uses of Union soldiers.
According To the estimate of that party
they are useful as Radical voters and
for little else. Hence they are marshall
ell iato organizations like the Boys in
Blue" Soldiers League" and the sc.
A. r." These institutions enable the
politicians to mass and control the votes
OF many of the men who were in the
Federal armies, and so long as they quiet
ly submit to be applied to such pur-
poses, the gratitude Of "loyalty" is un-
bounded, and its admiration for the
"drieuders of the Republic" finds the
loudest expression. They will even
given to an occasional soldier q beggar-
ly position, but always with view to
being able to control the best places for
themselves. r-.... ...a-s.
A Convention of 'lsyal" Soldiers and
Sailors was called at Parkersburg, for the
?Oth of this month. 1t was not held.
The loyal" leaders of the State seem
10 have discouutenanced the Conven-
ton. 1t would not do to let the mill
'ary element organize upon such AN ex-
teusivc scale. The "Boys in Blue" by
consolidating their forces might be able
To dictate Congressional nominations,
and the like. Such consnmmation
vas not To be tolerated. Hence the
Convention failed. The soldiers are to
be allowed to have such organization
as will be suitable for election purpo-
ses, but not for nominating purposes.
The suubbing of Brigadier Hangman
HARRIS is another case in point. Yes
terday be was virtually read out of the
palty by the Entelligenoer. At any rate
he was given to understand that
his post Of houor is private sta
ton" His greatness was belittlsd, his
services underrated aud his claims to
promotion summarily dismissed. The
h'sihgeNoer even adds insult to injury
by the manner in which it spits upon
h'D. 1t ''prefers the nominee
TOR Congress from this District should
be man of respectable ability and
reasonable fitness for the place." As if
the shaggy genius of the gibbet was not
respectfully able" for anything, and
reasonably ft" for any place in the gift
OF loyalty Ever since HARRIS re-
ported to the Legislature that FERGU-
son ought to he expelled for thieving,
be has lost caste. The implication of
his report that theft was not virtue,
'ickened the soul of "loyalty"and ever
since the leaders have soured on him.
Then again he aims too high. As
long as he is pleased to be content with
asltustion in the legislative kitchen,
II Is well; but when he aspirss to the
congressional parlor, he trenches upon
Tue prescriptive privileges of his bet
'e's, and is severely disciplined in con-
sequence.
And SO it is with the military element,
Whenever it comes in contact with the
ASPIRATIONS of the stay-st-heme dema-
gogqes of the "ring." "Soldiers are
sood IN their place." it is condescend-
'91siy admitted, "but they must not be
SloWed to 90 beyond it.
