THE RESULT.

The result of the election this week, in this
county, is gratifying to all friends Of morality
and honesty The power Of the ring which
has SO long controlled the nominations, has
been broken, and it is not probable that the
people win soon again see attempts made, IN
defiance of public sentiment to purchase
nominations by the free use of money and
whiskey. This result is not SO much Re-
publican victory as it is a victory of the moral
and respectable portion Of the community
over a combination Of men who have hesitated
at no unfair means 10 accomplish their
purposes. We trust the lesson win be last
ing one. s H Es.ssa y
Mr. Potts, our candidate FOR Stats Senator,
is elected by about 400 majority. We do not
believe that either the Democrats or the Re-
publicons who voted for him will ever have
reason to feel sorry for their act. He is
man whowill honor the position

Breaking OF the .Ice-ETects OF the
Storm-The Opening of River Naviga-
ton.
POUGHKEEPsIE, March &c. 1878.
The ice in the Hudson broke away at Low Point
this morning. The propeller John l.. HasbrOuck
endeavored to reach here this morning, but when
a mile south of New Hamburg had to put back to
Newburg. She turned up solid ice twelve inches
thick.
The Hudson River Railroad track was washed
away between Cruger's and Sing Sing during the
storm Of yesterday and last night necessitating
the use of single track, but the break has been
repaired and all the trains are running regularly
again.
The ferryboat at this place has succeeded in
reaching the opposite shore.
Reports from up the river state that loaded
teams still on the ice at Rhinebeck and Sau-
gerties.
Heavy west winds have 80 cut down the full
tides that at present there is no freshet in the
river.
KINGSTON, n. " March 80, 1873.
heavy rain storm prevailed all day yesterday
till evening, resulting in slight rise in the water
OF the creek and river. The Ice has wasted rapidly
and crossing is now considered unsafe. 1t ID ex-
pected that the steamer Norwich Will in day or
two attempt to force way through the Ice, tow
in gthe steamer Thomas Cornell to New York.
Preparations are being made for a general break
up OF the ice and the opening OF navigation.

The murderer of Frank Hahn is still at large.
The entire detective corps are working UP the
case but little progress had been made up to
late hour tonight. The impression is that the
deed was done by a colored man. There is an awful

that the skull was fractured with stone, seveTat
OF which were found in the vicinity OF where the
body lay, covered with blood.

EFFECTS OF THE STORM.
Accident to a Bridge ON the Long Isla nd
Railroad, and Narrow Escape OF a
Train-Great Floods.

Accident to a Bridge ON the Long Islam
Railroad, and Narrow Escape or u
Train-Grcat Floods.
The high winds OF Saturday night and Sunday
caused the tide to rise, especially on the south
Side OF the island, to height never before seen by
the Oldest residents The road leading from ia
maica south across the meadows to ROckaway, a
distance OF about four miles, was submerged to the
depth of four or five feet although the roadway is
raised several feet above the meadow level. Every
bridge on this roadway, some three or four in num-
ber has been lifted from It's fastenings and
oated Off, and the road itself is quilted to such an
extent that it will require weeks to repair it.
The track on the Rockawav branch of the Long
Island Railroad was also washed away in several
places and submerged for considerable distance
between the Rockaway road and Ocean Point.
Yesterday morning, as the first tram from Rock
away approached the bridge near Ocean Point on
its way to jamaica, the engineer discovered that
the track was overlooked just beyond the bridge;
but believing the bridge to be safe, he decided to
venture across, but with more than ordinary care.
AS the engine reached the west end OF the bridge,
putting on a full head OF steam, he succeeded IN
getting the engine over. The middle OF the bridge
followed the engine, sunk partly through, and the
against it, fereaking tn. bumpers Of both
The engineer still kept the full head
of steam on and succeeded in putting both cars
out OF the chasm just as the structure gave way
entirely and fOated of with the tide. The train
finally reached Jamaica nearly on time the passen-
gers being duly thankful for their narrow escape
which was attributable in great part to the presence
Of mind of the engineer. All travel, of course is
suspended on the road, though large force of
workmen are repairing damages, and trains may
possibly be again running to-day
The meadows at Hunters Point were submerged
to great depth, and the wharves overnowed so as
to foat OIL large quantities OF lumber. Much dam
age was also done by the needing OF cellars and in
other ways, but no loss OF life Is yet reported,
though the gale was learfully violent at the east
end Of the island, and the strandng OF vessels is
probable. 1t Will be a day or two before the full
extent OF the damage can be ascertaned.

HONESTY IN A NUTMEG. one of the
members of Congress from Connecticut has
touched his back pay They are all candi-
dates for reelection and it is base insinua-
tion to say that because the election takes
place in few days that fact had anything to
do with their self-abnegation. We have
heard of ''the whole thing in nutshell" but
s'honesty in a nutmeg is something rare,
especially in land famous for the production
of the wooden or spurious article.
