THE ELECTION YESTERDAY—ALL IS LOST. Contrary to onr hopes, but not entirely to our expectations, the Democracy have been defeated in nearly every Northern State, and Gen. Grant -elected President by an over whelming majority. When we take into consideration the im portant issues invested in the election yester day, above ail the vital issue of the life or death of the American Constitution—when we reflect that the contest has been between those who have boldly, in a time of peace, set aside the Constitution framed by the fathers of the Bepublic, established in its stead a consolidated military despotism, and the supporters of the constitutional govern ment—in a word, between Conservative-Be- publicanism and Badical-Despotism—we can not but regard the result, a mistifying proof of the degeneracy of the American people and their unfitness for self-government No human sagacity can penetrate the future that is before us. All is uncurtain and dangerous; not only for the oppressed, and unhappy South, but for the whole American people. The Ship of State is now tossed upon a storm-lashed ocean, without helm or compass. We have no constitution, no gov ernment, no liberty, no society, no law, but such as may be dictated by the mad caprice of a fanatical, corrupt and malignant ma jority. From such a condition of things no good can come. Biit the people of the North so will it, and upon them be the eon- sequences of their unreasoning infatuation. The Sonth must bide her time'with patient fortitude and never failing hope. A King m Parliament. —The ex-king of Hanover, a grandson of George HI. of Great Britain, intends, it is stated, to take his seal in the English House of Lords, under his title of Duke of Cumberland. A curious question has been raised whether the royal marriage act, which provided that, without the consent of the crown, no descendant of George II. should contract matrimony, affects the family relations of this throneless king. Eight sovereigns were present at the mar riage (in 1843) of the ex-king of Hanover, and it would be remarkable if, after all the parade of the occasion, the ceremony was invalid, and if the supposed hereditary Prince Ernest Augustus has no title to his rank or his possessions in England. Another Famine in British India Immi nent.—Northern India is again threatened with a famine that may revive the recent ter rible scenes in Orissa, where'two millions, of people died of starvation. There was scarce ly any hot weather in May and June, and the rains, which began a month before the usual time, have done immense damage. The rice crops, including those which have been sown a second time, are ruined. Orissa and all the districts between Calcutta and the sea have been deluged. Yet, while this supera bundance of moisture has fallen on the coast, the central districts are. suffering still more from drought. The price of bread has great ly advanced already.* ’ * ‘ Durr on Segabs and Cotton.—The Treas ury Department has issued a circular, dated October 29, giving notice that nnder the 82d and 87th sections of the internal revenue act, approved July 20, 1868, all segars, cigarettes and cheroots imported after the above date are liable to an export duty of $2.50 per pound and 85 per cent, advalorem. In accordance with the provisions of the Act of Congress, approved February 3, 1868, all cotton imported from foreign countries after November 1, 1868, will be exempt from impost duty. m The Beport of the Agricultural Bureau ‘at Washington for the month of October hai been published. ■ It says the full promise of the early summer has not been realized in the yrheat harvest. The increased area over that of last year is about neutralized by dimi nution in the yield, so that the increase in the total quantity, as shown by the October returns, will not be more than three per cent., and that is obtained mainly from the Pacific -coast In Maryland and Wisconsin the gain has not yielded as much in threshing as was expected. ' ^ We call npon the President to remove Gen. Meade. He is a revolutionist He trampled npon the Beconstrnction act He is still trampling. He means to keep on at it Let him be removed. He has proclaimed mm-rial law in the five reconstructed State govern ments of North and South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and Florida. He has by that part of the army in his hands, nullified negro consti tutions and virtually dispersed carpet-bag conventicles at the point of the bayonet Men and Brethren,, he is worse tb.n Blair!— JVfeic York World. Negro Jury.—At Talladega Gonrt, in the State of Alabama a few days' ago, a regular black jury was empanneUed. Here is the re sult as described by a party present There were about fifteen negroes trieScf for various offences, each one of whom, on-.his trial, de- inauded a white jury, and every one of them wa6 acquitted - except one, and bis punish ment was -light The colored jurors sat in their box from Monday morning until Satur day night, without -having a single case sub mitted to them. y. c.. Paying Up!—Mr. Edwin Forrest signed a check in New York, on Thursday, jfor $65,- 000 infevbr of Mrs. Catharine Sinclair, his former wife—the proceeds in part of the old ' * i-^J, ago Forney.the pimp intrigued .Jo indue© Jamison the Son Pier to unite in a conspiracy to ruin the reputation of a virtuous wife. Mrs. Forrest ; triumphs over 1 - ifcar - enemies. Forrest “lingers superfluous* on the stage,” Forney, is-coneagned to infamy by all honest men, and Jamison fills a pyeiqajgre grave. The ^Republican Executive Committee of Massachusetts offer a' reward-hf- $15;000 for the arrest and conviction of any person pro curing or using fraudulent naturalization pa pers in that State. A week; op m PER #KE Hie newspapers, ! are eloquent over the week of universal January 3, 1869. W© will cheerfully aid in giving a timely circulation to the programme and hope it will do much good. We hope a week of prayer will tend to mollify the minds of men—to mitigate hatred and prejudice— rebuke injustice * and oppression—moderate greed, avarice and extortion—the insane fury to be rich—the excesses and follies of fashion and shame the brazen front of vice. But it seems to us most of these things which are classed* as the results of prayer, holy writ puts as its preliminary conditions. The good "book tells -us, lor illustration, “when thou bringest thy gift to the altar and there rememberest thou has aught against thy brother, leave there thy gift before the altar—first be reconciled to thy brother and then come and offer thy gift.” R © are. not sure of the words, but the main proposition will not be disputed. Braver from hearts rankling with hatred, prejudice, passion,’and intolerance—or burdened with the guilt of in justice and oppression are vain oblations. They will do no good. The Bible insists npon certain prelimiSfey conditions <jf purga tion and redress; but they ore very generally lost sight of so far as we can discover. Let onr Northern friends, before they go into this week of prayer, ponder well the grosB injustice they have practiced toward the Sonth, and the spirit of illiberality, intol erance and vindictiveness they still manifest to the whites of this section. Upon any fair construction of the facts they cannot accuse the South of a purpose to injure them. It is true we attempted secession in self-defence, but they knew well that this remedy had al ways been held by the Sonth to be just and lawful; and to say the very least, the argu ment hod left such latitude for honest doubts” that many intelligent Northern minds sided with the South in her view of the matter. Upon what view of justice or liberality, there fore, do they impute to the Southern people the moral of treason, and perseveringly seek to impose upon os political and civil disabili ties, superadded to the awful catalogue of material wrongs and injuries they inflicted upon ns during the war? Why do they re joice in. work of slander and detraction, and industriously seek to whelm us under the op- probium of the world ? Why do they syste matically outrage all justice, fair dealing anti- charitable construction wherever the South is concerned? Why, in fact, does their ha tred provoke them into treason against Na ture herself, so that they study to exalt the besotted'African over the heads of men of their.own race whose ancestors assisted with theirs in laying the foundations of this Gov ernment—men who have themselves fought and snffered for it? Why is well-nigh every Northern pulpit resonant with the thunder of denunciation and the so-called gospel of peace, wrested, in onr cose, into a ministry of wrath and hatred ? Let the Northern people introduce this week of prayer with a due and careful recon sideration of their conduct and position to wards the Sonth. We are entitled, by the law of God, to fair and charitable construction; nor can there he a cordial Christian or politi cal fellowship between the sections so long as it is withheld ? Governor Seymour’s Law Suit.—Governor Seymour has a suit in the United States Cir cuit Court in Illinois against Michael Haley, of Joliet. It is about the ownership of a crop of com on some fifteen hundred acres of land owned by Seymour. Judge Drum mond on Saturday charged the jury strongly in favor of 'the claims of Governor Seymour, who gained his case. . Lengthy Separation and Return.—In 1845 John Elliott left his home and his wife, who had borne him eleven children, in Put nam connty, Indiana, suddenly and in pas sion at some slight misunderstanding that had occurred between them. After he had been gone abont two years his wife, sup posing him dead, married again. - Recently Mr. Elliott, -returned, after an absence of twenty-six years. He had an interview with his wife, and she, without hesitation, re turned to her first choise. Mr. EUiott had been to California daring his absence, and acquired a fortune. Velocipedes.—Nine yonng men who left Bonen on their velocipedes at seven in the morning, reached Paris at nine in the even ing. They performed the distance of thirty- two leagues in eleven hours, having rested three hours during the day. General Kilpatrick opened his campaign against General Butler in Salem, Mass., on Wednesday, but his speech was not attended with mush success, as the cheers for Butler frequently drowned his voice, and general hisses greeted every mention of Dana. > i m i « Emigration to Missouri.—large bodies of immigrants are pouring into Western Mis souri, and the St Louis Republican claims that' the State, has gained 259,000 in popula tion since the war.
