to the purposes of the 'sGoat Island Bill
and the reasons for its introduction, to-
gether with the past course of the Union
and the Bulletin in reference to terminal
matters, was listened to with much attention
and cannot fail to have good effect, as an
exposure Of the wilful misrepresentation
of those two journals of this subject Dur
ing Mr. Gorham's speech telegram
was received from Frank w. Gross of the
Marysville appeal, announcing Republican
successes in all the States which held cleo

short, but earnest and telling effort. The
meeting then adjourned with three cheers
for the speakers, three more for Grant and

ALMOST AN ACcIDENT.-Near Piety
i i'll at the residence of G.. +. Mcpherson,
Esq, the well top had been taken off to
make some alterations with the pump
The son of Mcpherson, little shaver, was
playing round, and was told by those work
ing at the pump to go of, in doing which
he backed into the well, which was near
ly thirty feet deep and had ten or twelve feet
of water in it. There was no way for a
man to descend into the well (Which was
dug in the smooth bed-rock) except by
means of a ladder, and by the time that
was brought the ' oice of the little fellow
was heard saying; "I'm coming up the
pipe" Sure enough, in a moment he ap-
peared, dripping with water but unhurt
except two or three scratches. 1t was a
narrow escape.

THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS.

If we are to take the result Of the cleo
tions held on Tuesday as fair indication
of the political situation in the East, the
Greeley -Democrat;c coalition has collaTs
ed entirely, and by the fifth of November
next wi not have enough friends left to
give it decent burial. The October cleo
tions which precede a Presidential cam
paign are always stubbornly contested, both
parties in the field put forth their utmost
efforts to gain the vantage ground, and their
results are looked upon as fair indication
of the strength of parties in the more I'm
portant contest soon to follow. Judged by
this standard, the combined forces of De,
mocracy and Liberal Republicansm are
already beaten, and the government of the
country assured to the Republican party
for TIE next fur years.
The triumph is greater than We had
hoped, and yet no greater than should have
been expected. The alliance of extreme
Democrats and extreme Republicans under
one banoer, with 10 sentiment in common
save hunger for office was an un natural
one, and one not calculated to excite en-
thusiasm in either the Republican or the
Democratic branch of its adherents.
And while feeling of mutual distrust
divided the opposition, the Republicans
closed up the ranks day by day, and march
ed united to victory, knowing well that
defeat of but little importance in itself,
would be hailed by the malcontents as sig
nal that the year of jubilee had come, and
all they had to Go was to walk over the
Presidential course in November. 1t is
hard at present to say what effect these re
verses viii have upon the Democratic part of
the "Liberal' party. But few among them
but will admit that they selected Mr.. Gree
ley asa measure not of principle but of policy.
To support him and endorse the Cincinnati
platform was to repudiate verything in the
way Of principle they had ever possessed.
Such a dose was nauseating to the average
Democratic stomach, even when seasoned
with the prospect of success. Now that
the October elections have shown that the
Democratic party is, if anything weaker
with the help Of Mr.. Greeley and his friends
than without it, it is more than probable
that these who reflect upon the ridiculous
attitude in which they are placed by the
action of their delegates at Baltimore, will
hasten to relieve themselves of the incubus
which, like Sinbad's old man of the Sea,
threatens to ride them to destruction
This has been a remarkable political cam
paien in many respects, and we should not
be surprised if the result of the October
election was to force the Louisville presi-
dental ticket into such prominence, as will
make it the one which the Republicans will
have to defeat in the final struggle
