Tur ELEcrroN AND OunsELvEs.-The

TIE ELECTION AND OURSELv Es.-The
elections over, we shall now lay aside poll
tics and furnish our reader with news and
other matter of different character. Du-
ring the late campaign we have endeavor-
ed to do our full duty to eparty to which
we have been attached since a voter, and
which we have had the honor to represent
as Chairman of the County Committee
for several years past. FIVE have failed
in performing any part of our duty it was
not by design. We confess that we have
had heavy task imposed upon us since
we assumed entire control of the AMERI-
CAN, in trying to convince the people of
the county, that they were daily imposed
upon by ring of Office seekers, who held
a firm grip upon the county offices. We
were not only contradicted by the papers
OF the opposition party, but also by one in
our own ranks which showed its fears of
losing a little patronage bestowed upon it
by the Ring. We are happy, to note the
fact that our efforts were not in vain, aud
that honest men of both parties viewed the
has been wrought about in n providential
way. Northumberland county can now
boast ofas good, competent and honest men
elected to Office as ever graccd our county
offices. For this change we hope now that
the share of labor we performed towards
its accomplishment may not be in vain,
and that the officers elected will perform
their duties faithfully and manage affairs
to relieve the people Of the burden of taxes
and let them see that the money is collect
ed and honestly appropriated.
In the Presidential campaign the AMER
IcAN was alone at the county scat in de-
Tending, and in open support Of the Repub-
lican nominees. And although attacked on
every side its vindications of the principles
of the Republican party we're open and
fair. Whether it had the influence which
we desired it to have, we leave the public
to judge. Though frequently told by jour
was without influence we take pride il
congratulating the people of the county
upon the result Of the election which was
cmphatically decided in favor of the mel
and measures which this paper sustained
Having accomplished this much we rejoice
rwith all who helped to bring about thi
grand result, and shall lay down the poll
tical helmet, and endeavor to discuss othe
topics Of interest to our readers and renew
Our efforts TO further improve the AMERI
CAN, and make it more useful in accord
ance with our means of support by gene
rous ,nublic.

committee and others are all thoroughly
exhausted by the superhuman efforts Of the
past thirty-six hours.
The city presents strange and excited
scene. State street is still piled with goods,
which are now being removed, Everybody
appears to be on the street, and sleep and
rest are unthought of
BosToN, Nov. 1i--1:30 p. NJ.
The fire is still under control, and is
now considered thoroughly subdued, al
though the engines still continue at work.
The crowds about the burnt district are
immense. Telegraphic communication is
seriously interrupted, and it is almost
impossible to send dispatches on either
severe losses. Everything is at q stand
still. Business is neglected, and the ter
| rible disaster is the all absorbing topic.
! The outlook for the working class lie ap-
palling for the next ten months, and most
| probably will expose the poor Of Bosten to
serious hardship, unless promptly assisted
| from other sections of the country. The
destruction of coal has been very great.
All the banks except seven are open and
doing business this morniug.
1t was feared when the fire broke out
again in Jordan, Marsh & Co.'s, this
morning, that fresh confagration was
unavoidable the danger, however, was
averted by the promptitude of the au-
thorities in exploding two large stores
adjoining, after which tie fire was speed
lily checked.
The entire distance burned over is sixty
five acres of ground, embracing the best
business portion of the city. Upwards
of seven hundred buildings arc in ashes.
Little definite information can yet be
gathered concerning the loss of life, but
many perished in their attempts to save
their goods. Falling walls and timbers
crushed to death numbers whose bodies
will never be recovered. The police sta.
tions are crowded with anxious iuquirers
for missing friends and relatives.
M.-Engines from other citios did
most effective service and the people are
} grateful.
, 1t is estimated that over IL, 900 men are
thrown out of employment.
| The banks burned were the bank o
North America, Revere, Continental
t Mount Vernon, National and Emigran
I National.
, Dispatches just received state that but
/ two buildings were burned to-day-thes.
destroyed by explosion OF gas. The. fir
, is now eilectually extinguished and M

600 Of property destroyed. The fire on Sat

500, 900. The principal business por-
tion Of the eityis laid in ashes, and thous
ands Of persons are thrown out of employ

WIsHART's PINE TREE TAR
CORDIAL.
NATURES GREAL REMED Y
FOR THE
THROAT AND LUNGS.

It is gratifying to us to inform the public that
DR.. l.. @. C. Wshart's Pine Tree Tar Cordial,
for Throat and Lung Diseases, has gained an en-
viable reputation from the Atlantic to the Paci-
Hc coast, and from thence to some OF the first
families of Europe, not through the press alone,
but by persons throughout the States actually
benefited and cured at his office. While he pub
fishes less SO say our reporters, he is unable to
supply the demand. 1t gains and holds its repu-
tation-
First. Not by stopping cough, but by loosen
ing and assisting nature to throw off the un-
healthy matter collected about the throat and
bronchial tudes. which causes irritation.
Second. 1t removes the cause of irritation
(Which produces cough) Of the mucnous men,
brane and bronchial tubes, assists the lungs to
act and throw Off the unhealthy sccretlons, and
purifes the blood.
Third. 1t is free from squills lobelia, ipccas
and opium, of which most throat and lung re-
NEEDLES are composed, which allay cough only,
and dlsorganize the stomach. 1t has soothing
effect on the stomach, acts on the liver and kid
neys, and lymphatc and nervous regions, thus
reaching to every part of the system, and in it.
invigorating and purifying effects it has gained &
reputation which it must hold above all others II
the market.

BRINGING UP THE REsERvEs.-Thc
Democrat the week before the election,
called on its readers to ''bring up the re.
serve, and they would give Greeley hand
some majority in the county," To bring
out these reserves, the editor of the litera
ry, fictitious and Billingsgate department,
did his best to deflme the character o
Gen. Grant, with illustrations and Ian
guage worthy of the text. The resul
has, no doubt, convinced him that the in
tclligent portion of the Democracy arr
neither devoid of taste or good seuse, and
are not disposed to encourage slang ant
blackguardism whether in politics or il
the social circle.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION
The convention to revise the Constitution
of Pennsylvania met at Harrisburg on
Tuesday last, and organized by electng
Hon. William NJ. Meredith of philadelphia,
President, and Hon. d. L.Imbrie, of Beaver,
as Secretary. An invitation from the
Philadelphia city council was extended for
the Convention TO meet in that city, and it
is altogether likely that majority of the
members favor the removal after the
first Of January next. The Convention
will be in session for one hundred days and
perhaps longer.

GRASTS MAJORITY IN TIE STATE
The official returns from all the counties
but five, viz, Clarion, Green, Jefferson,
Mexican and Tioga, have been received,
whieh make Grants majority 1872, 100. The
more returns we get the higher the MAORI

voted for Greeley, change their votes aud
make this thing unanimous, and that his.
tory record the votes for Greeley along
with those for Black and O'Conor under
