A day or two sgo we heard a report that Medill was elected Guvernor in short that the whole Democratic ticket was elected. Since that time we have heard no contradic tion of the report, and suppose it must be true. Our Whig friends oil over the State trying; to account for this result all seem to ettle down to the same conclusion that is,, the vote being so light there were hot en ough whig tickets got into the various ballot MM The report from Pennsylvania are equally aa cheering as the above. The Ohio Legislature will be lsrgely De mocratic, and largely Anti-Maine Law. Although the majorities of our opponents 'are larger IRan for many yearB befort, still We vill fcevtr say die, nor strike our flag While we have strength lo stand beneath ita folds. We firmly believe that the policy of Our party is for the best and with such a J feeling we make of defeat a Victory, by trengthening our arms for another contest. ! Being in the minority is no evidence of be-1 ing in the wrong, and though trickery and corruption may prosper for a time; it will be ' but a abort time, lor the people will arise, 1 throw off the incubus of Locofocolsm snd be j once TlfdW os of the olden time hcpp.y and prosperous under Whig rule. 05r"We respett Judge X. sft a citizen and neighbor and hope we. ever shall." Oatette A- Citizen of last eeek. Now as evidence of his respect for that in dividual we find him at one time appropria ting a portion of his private property to his own use. That is evidence of respect with a vengeance. This is not all, however, but when 'Judge C.'come out over his own sig nature, and fully and fully and satisfactorily (to any reasofluoTe marry) explains how he 'came to write AM article in question, this erfrne aYlor who professes such respect, ac- buses him of being guilty of Ja falsehood. Save us from sueh neighborly respect shall be our constant prayer! In reference to the pilfering we noticed a Wtrefc or two ago, the Editor across the way, vithcfit denying the imputation, offers as liis "only apology that he "could not resist the temptation." So the doomed culprit on the scaffold pleads, but does the hangman for his pleadings falter Better join the "Anti-ta-Ving-othcr-people's-property society that so ciety whose motto is '-Thou slialt net steal!" We admit "the public do understand" all about these things, therefore we would sug gest the propriety of your confining your se lections to legitimate sources, and not resort to other person's poe'.els or halt for your ar ticles. We do not reflect on the person from whom you obtained the manuscript, for we have reason to number him among our list of friends, yet you placed him in a very delicate position by your ungenerous course. He shewed it to you with the strict injunction that it remain a private matter. We close our remarks on this matter now, by saying that ab far from regretting the oc currence that gave rise to this controversy we are rather pleased that an opportunity is thus afforded for the 'cloven foot' to manifest itself cross the way so soon after our debut as edi tor. We will always hereafter know with Whom we are dealing and what we are to ex pect. We are informed by Mr. Partridge that there is an error in the published report, in this place, of the premiums at the St. Clairs ville fair, o far as Daguerreotypes are con cerned. The premium there was awarded to No. 36, which waa his. No., and not that of -Mr Faris, as published. The above paragraph is from the Wheeling Gazelle, and aa one of those who first pub lished the premium list We bej? "to explain. The list as published fti 'the Wheeling pa pers in so far as the Daguerreotypes was concerned, was exactly as we published it. The probabilities are that our publication is cdriVct inasmuch as it comes to us in the handwriting of the Secretary, which person has ample opportunity of judging. The manuscript is now before us and we ifind written in very legible characters "Best specimen of Daguerreotypes, Wm. M. Faris, Wheeling Diploma." Please s.iy us much Mr. Wharton, and oblige the officers at least. We are requested to state that the NEW ATHENS FEMALE SEMINARY will pain go into apsfratioR on the first Monday in November.

We must conlcst to an admiring fondness for the Fall--not the fall of Adam, but the Fall of the year which is now upon us with sll ita gorgeous besuty. Tho "sere snd yel low lesf" hasdisplsced the summer verdufe, ud the cober hues of later season are deep ening. "Decay's effacing finger" ia buay; and all Nature seems rolling 'neath its ban. Pause for a single moment, in the turmoil of life, Oh man, sever your thoughts for s time from the bustling world that is tugging so sturdily st you skirts, and cast a glance far away across the countrysee the richly va ried tints of the forest limned by the out stretched finger of the coming Winter the sight awakena something tremulous within which makea you ailent, may be sad. It seems but a short time since all this waa fresh and green in spring now Death ia scattering his trophies with a prodigal hand. In all this you behold a type of human life, and reflect that you too, like the year, are passing away! Passing away! sad words, yet at this season they are the burden of every song, the subject of every wail! In the organ-like grandeur of Nature'a diapason, every liquid note is passing away. The babbling rill, the leaping torrent, the majestic river, all sigh as they g'Ue to ocean's depths passing away. It is written upon every tree and shrub and flower the moaning night wind as it goes Soughing end sobbing over the stubble and the crisp mesdow cries passing away. The infant just tottering upon the stage of life (he youth now stepping out with the first, strong confident tread of man hood the strong man of fifty with the deep ening shades of evening falling around him rs he begins his march over the sober down hill of life all are passing away. The quiet afternoon is deepening into the darker twilight, and the night ia corning on. Win ter lollowa close upon the footsteps of Au tumn as docs the Winter of Death upon the Autumn of life. The winds attend the bur ml of the past season, they cluster like mourners round the grave, and yon tall tree stretching forth its gaunt, spectre-like arms to Heaven seems to be invoking the blessing of God over the leaf-bedecked bier ol the dead summer! Is there no lesson taught in all this to man? Do not the changes of Nature bear a resem blance to the changes in the life of mnnM After Winter Cutties the Spring to renew the decayed beaty of the earth. Listen to the words of inspiration, spoken in relation to man's rejuvenation "And after death the judgment." Yes, and as has been our faithful ness in the discharge of duty, so shall our re ward bar. To some wlil be addressed, in sil very accents-"Como ye blessed;" to others in harsh and grating thunder tones' "De part ye cursed.'1 WAR! WAR! By reference to another column it will be seen thut war has been declared between Russia and Turkey. This of course has been looked for for a long time & wiU'not anrprise any one the only cause of wonder is that the Turks have borne thus long with their uorthen foe. Tho effect of a general Euro pean war at this time will be to enhance the value of our stocks and produce, and afford a better market for our exports. Our manu facturing establishments will look Up and all branches of trade will be benefited. Still we shall ever deplore the existence of war, in any country and under any circumstances. Our advices are general as yet, but before long no doubt we will be able to give par ticulars. It has evidently been the policy of the Czar for a long series of yeurs to be come involved in a wsr with the Turks conquer the Ottoman Empire, then turn his arms towards France, England and the in termediate countries, and make them, in turn, a part of the Russion Empire. To this end he has been pushing forward steadily, Swerving neither to the right nor to the left never for a moment allowing petty (!) question of honor and personal integrity to weigh aught against the one great, absorbing question--unfivalled sway over tho whole of Europe. In this crisisitbenooves England Sl France to look well totheirkingdoms.&if need be lend hand to Turkey;for the lime is not far off when they willedch heed help against the same pow erful foe. This declaration of war is but the beginning of the end, and before peace reigns again there will no doubt be a general war on the European continent. We shall look for foreign news now with intense interest.

WAR DECLARED BETWEEN RUSSIA AND TURKEY. KOSZTA RELEASED BY CONSENT OF AUSTRIA. NEW YORK, Oct. 17. Trie steamer Atlantic arrived yetiterday. From Vienna we learn, that tne Divan, in grand council on the 3rd, resolved upon a de claration war against Russia, by the ad vice df the fodf powers, arid repoVl says thst hostilities have commenced. Omar Pacha previously demahded privilege to leave, or that war be declared before win ter seta in. The Russians, it was supposed, would move to the attack of the Turkish position at I Roaschouk. I The Eastern question has taken another turn. At the A I mux meeting of Rmpcrors a new proposition Was offered to the Porte. Austria again puts herself in accord with France and England, against Prussia. In j the conference at Vienna negociations were resumed, but the telegrspic despatches from , Constantinople of the 8Uth, state that at the ! Grand Council of the Ottoman Empire, re commended the Solum to declare war aga- 'inst Russia, which caused an immediate mee ting of the British Cabinet, and much appre hension among the public. The Sultan's decision is not known, hut a Courier is hourly expected at Marseilles from Constantinople. Turkey generally is said to be quiet and tranquil. The Russian Minister of War has official ly ordered the Russian army to wintet in the principalilics- The fleets still remain in Besika Bay. Martin Kusta has been released and was to embark for the United States on the 21st. Austria consented to the embarkation. Mr. Brown was at Smyrna, to see him off safe. The cholera it is stated is increasing at Liverpool. The packet ship, Isaac Wright, having600 i passengers on board and bound to New York struck on the Irish coast. She leaked so badly that a steamer from Liverpool had logo to her assistance. The time for the suspension of the import duthM on corn and flour, shipped to Frunce has been extended to July 31st. Another decree prohibits the export from I France of potatoes, dried fruit, or any kind of materials for railways. These articles can all be imported Into Spoin free of duty. The import of BrCadBtuffS into Naples has been extended to May 185 4. The Atlantic brought 200 passengers, a- 1 mong them Lieut. Maury, and Hon. J. R. In- gersoll. -She left Literpoolon the 5th atone oclock. FROM CALIFORNIA. NEW YORK, Oct. 11. By the Illinois, whicli arrived last evpning, ' we have California dates to tho 16th. Biie brings the moils and 9l,3ii5,000 in gold. Dates from Valpariso to the 1st of Sept. state that there is a bill before Congress, pro posing to reduce the duty on silks, and it is believed that . will pass. Chili offers a mediate between Peru and Boliva, and being about an amicable settle ment. It is rumored that Gen. Flores is fitting out an expedition against Eucodor. Affairs are in an unsettled condilioh. A PRECIOUS DOCUMENT. No paper has been prepaired and sent forth by the present administration that so fully ; sets forth the principles af the men now in powerj as the famous letter of Secretary Guthrie to the Collector St New York. Our MadOTl are aware of the quarrel that is going on between the Hurds and the Soils of that State. Marct belongs to tho Softs, and ' the policy of the administration has been to j buy up the old Barnburners and Buffalo plat form men, by giving them office. This has! arrayed the old line Democracy against the J President and hiB cabinet. Collector Bror son is one ol the Hards, and In his appoint- I nients he has remembered his friends This has been a matter of complaint on the part of the Softs, and they have curried their griev ances to Washington. The subject of the distribution of the Bpoils has been gravely discussed in cabinet council, and the President has formally instructed the Secretary of the Treasury to say to the Collector of New York, that he must appoint a portion of Barnburners to the subordinate posts about the Custom House. Think of this reader. The Pres dent and cabinet bf this great Nation, leaVihg the important affairs, that should engage their attention, und desending to the paltry busi ness of directing who should be appointed weighers and draymen ut a Custom House. We do not know how others may regard this letter, but it seems to us to be getting to a lower depth than has ever belore been reached. I It seems to be designed to force UroAso! to resigri. How he can consent to be dictated to,in i this wav, in the selection ofsubordiuates, and ! retain liis sell-respect, is a question that puz zles honet.1 men. j ThB follow ing is the letter and we put it on record, as one of the signs of the times. A PRECIOUS DOCUMENT. WASHINGTON, Oct. 3, 1853. Dear Sir: Slnco the conversation we hud upon the subject of the unfortunate di ! vision in the Democratic party in New York, I feel more convinced that the disorganization cannot fail to ehddtigcr the Success of the party there; uifd to prove injurious elsewhere. Hut the separation is ell'ected. A tJuMvictioi has lorced itself upon my tnirtd, that, by De moir its pledged to each other upon a om mom platform Ol principles, the divisions could : a id utlgttU to have beeh prevented.

F., now in session in Philadelphia, has voted a donation of (500 to the sufferers by the epidemic at New Orleans, and 250 to those at Mobile. The New Orleans Bulletin bears testimony to the devotion and care of the Order in the city to the sick, and states that ever since the fever broke out, they have liberally supplied the necessary wants and procured nurses for every one of its members who have been prostrated, while hundreds of others 'who Were strangers in the city, but ;belonging to thle-Order in different sections of the tountry, as well as many who have no connection with it, have been freely and kindly cared for by them. ThiB has involved them to a large pecuniary extent, and the Bulletin calls upon the Order throughout the country to come to their relief by contributing such sums as may be convenient. ENGLAND AND THE EASTERN QUESTION. TION. Amongst the things settled for a time, in this eastern affair, ia certainly the English name in European repute. Waving all ques tion of the justice of the judgment) it cannot be denied that the position ofEngland is low-1 ered in the eyes of the world. Perhaps the1 previous estimation of our country w as exag-1 gerated, perhaps we were elevated by a sort of moral refraction, and are now seen at our true level,, and the tevel is. comparatively at , bast, a huinbleon?. What Europe imagined M pe a bulwark against the encroachments! of Russia, ot atly other power, has turned out j to be nothing more than a counter, crowned j by way of citadel with a till. Such is the change of view. The Germans say that Eng land, reversing the lottof Francis, has saved all but honor. Be the truth as. it may, and the judgments ol the world an; always in ex cess one way or the other, our prestige is wo fully diminished; and for some time to come it will behove us to carry a low sail, and to abate our pretensions to some accord with the real lowliness of our aims, and their repute in the opinion of the world. To illustrate our present figure in Europe, Punch must design Brittania put in the coi ner in Bes ika Bay. Both consistency and a decent pride would now counsel the disbanding of our forces, so that whenever .the occasion may arise for sup purling an ally against wrong, we may be en abled to plead in excuse our inability to afford the succour. Unarmed, the world moy give us credit for a spirit wanting only the means for display; butwhat is to be thought of the man armed cap-a-pie who wails round the corner while his friend's house is being broken open. The arms ofEngland have been accustomed to many hard knocks, but to knock under with them is a new use, which doubtless finds infinite favor in the eyes of the Peace Ass ociation. The part played may have been the wisest and beet possible, but it clearly cbuld dispense with armies & n ivies; and the retrenchment would save both money and ptide, when the bus'n -ss is to yield. See how secure woman is in the strength ol weak ness! snd let Brittania nbrne doff her theatri cal trumpery of muniments for show, ossume the Quaker bonne', instead of the casque, and Dlace her trust in the resnc-ctfor helplessness. London Examiner. London Examiner. A GERMAN INCIDENT. It dppears, on the 31t of March; I ist V rtar, a child was born at Seehansen. in Prussia, which the father wished lo be baptized under the name of Jacobi Waldecfc, each name being that of a dIStingilishea democrat. The offi ciating cleruyman relused to bajUisethe child under such detested names. The lather was determined it should be baptized as a dem ocrat, or nothing elsc.ahd sccordingly was letting It grow tip without the rite.

We extract from Judge Barrington's "Per sonal Sketches of Ireland Fifty Years Ago" the following Interesting account of an inter view between Randolph and Burr fthd the Irish orator, Grattan: Col. Burr, who had been vice-prbsidettt of America, and probably would have been tbe next president, but for his Unfortunate duel with Gen. Hamilton, came over to England, dhd was made known to tne by Mr. Randolph, of South Carolina, w Ml whom I was very in timate. He requested that I would introduce him to Mr. Grattan, whom he was excessively anxious to see. Col. Burr '.vas not a man of very prepossessing appearance rough fea tured, and neither dress nor polished, but a Well informed, sensible man; and though not j particularly agreeable , yet an instructive Corn panion. j People in general form extrtvdgaht antic ipations regarding eminent persons. The idea of a great orator and an Irish chief car ried with it, haturally enough, correspondihp nblioni df pHysicat elegance, vigor snd dig nity, fihcli was Col. Burr's mistake, I be lieve, about Mr- Grattan, and 1 took cure rtot to UHdeceive him. We went to my friend's house, who was to leave Lontlor! the neSt day. I announced that Col. fturr, from America, Mr. Randolph and fHylelf wished to pay our respects, and the servant informed us that his master would receive us in a short time, but was at that mo ment much occupied on businesa of conse quence. Burr's expectations wore all on the alert. Randolph also was very anxious to be presented to the great Grattan, and both were impatient for the entrance of this Demos thenes. At length the door opened, and in hopped a small, bent figure, meagre, yellow, and ordinary, one slipper and One shoe; hii breeches knees loose; his cravat hanging down; his shirt and coat sleeves tucked up high, and an old hat upon his head. This apparition saluted the strangers very courteously, asked, without an introduction, how long they had been in Engiund, and im mediately proceeded to make inquiries about the late General Washington and the Rev olutionary war. My companions looked at each other; their replies were restive, and they seemed quite impatient to Bee Mr. Grat tan. I could scarely contain myself, but de termined to let my eccentric countryman take his own course, who appeared quite delighted to see his Visitors, and was the most inquisi tive persdh in the world. Randolph waa far ihe tallest and most dignified looking man of the two, gray-llalred and weli dressed. Grat tan, therefore, of course, took him for the Vice President and addressed him according ly. Randolph at length begged to know if they could shortly have the honor of seeing Mr. Grattan. Upon which our host, not doubting but that they knew him. conceived that it must be his son James for whom ihey inquired, and said he believed he had that moment wandered out somewhere to amuse himself. This completely disconcerted the Americans and they were about to make their bow and their exit, when 1 thought it high time to ex plain; and, tuking Col. Burr and Mr. Ran dolph respectively by the bund, introduced them to the Right Hon. Henry Grattan. I never saw people stare so, or so much em barrassed. Gruttan himself, now perceiving the cause, heartily joined in my merriment. He pulled down his shift sleeves, pulled u his stockings, and in his own irreeistable woy, apologized lor the outer figure he cut, assur ing them that lie had totally Overlooked it in his anxiety not to htep them waiting; that he was returning to Ireland next morning and had been busily engaged packing Up his hooks and papers, in u closet full of duSt and cob webs! This incident rendered the interview more interesting. The Americans were charmed with their reception, and after a pro tracted visit, retired highly gratified, 'while ! Gruttan returned again to his books and cob J webs. A SUNDAY NIGHT IN NEW YORK. The New York Times thus depicts a Sun day night in New York city: 'Lust Sunday night in a walk from Nasaau street to South Ferry, we hud ample food for comment upon the fourth commandment. Broadway was a perfect hell ol drunkeness. A howling, staggering Pandemonium of i bestialized men.

At his residence in Morrietown, on the 10th inst., William Vasce, in Ihe 78th year of his l gb- The deceased, was born in Scotland oh the ; 6th of January 1765. He emigrated to this i country, and settled temporarily in the city of Philadelphia in 1776 In 1798 he left Phil adelphia, and settled in tl!e city of Baltimore, : where he remained for 33 years. In 1833 he left Baltimore, and settled in the neighborhood ol Morrintown. In 1847 he sold his farm, and 1 in the spring of 1848 settled in Morri town, j where he remained till Ihe timeof his demise. I In all the relations of Ufa he was kind and j indulgent, as a friend he was ardent and sin i cere, as a neighbor he was courteous and ob- ligating, as a citizen, he was patriotic, as he evinced by entering the army as a volunteer ; to defend Fort McHenry, w hen bombarded by Admiral Cockburn, in September, 1814, as a member of society few as upright and honest i and as a christian he was humble and sin j cere. He leaves behind him his widow and , daughter to mourn their irreparable loss, and : a large circle of friends to sympathise with G. MoRaisTou-, Belmont co., O., Oct, 14,1853.

In Martinsville, Belmont county, Ohio, Ew arc Dakar, on the 7th of Oclobei,1853, son , of John and Mary Dakan, inethe thirty-first year of his age, THE MARKETS. i Hoes prices in Cincinnati. By corh- parlno the returns t,f the State Auditor for ' fbrtyrur countiet in Ohio, it appears that the number of hogs a!sesed tliis season is ; 1,315,498, again.-t 638,031 last year. A por tion of this increase is attributed to the dis continuance of the exemption this year of the 20d woiih lo each producer. As regards prices, we annex the following from the Pri ce Current ol Otttober 5th: The prospect of a heavy demand from Eu rope, as might be expected.jmparts a buoyant feeling to the market for hogs, and within two weeks prices have advanced only 75c per hundred pounds, and now 515 is being paid, und is obtain able for hogs deliverable in this ! month and November; in addition to whicli, slaughterers are contracting for the killing at i 30c per head premium. It is nuw reduced lo I a certaii.ly, that the market will open at .or over 85 per hundred net: which wiM be fuily : up to the opening price last year. We do hot know a packer, however, who would think 'of paying this price with a view of going through the seus. n with the products'. We may therefore conclude, that the opening price will not be indication ofthe price that j will be paid during or at the full commence ment ofthe regular p'a'cEing season. Butstill, it cannot be denied that prospects ere deci- ! dediy more favorable to the interests of lite farmers tHun they were three week's ago; ' while with reference id puckers, ihey are the re crab.
