Elections in the Northern States
The-news-from elections in the'North
ern States, though very meagre, are
quite 'discouraging, and if they are
a eorrectindioation of the final result
vre may regard Lincoln's election as
certain. The strongest hope at the
South was that he might lose Pennsyl
vania. but his - Mends are confident
that that State has gone for Curtin, the
Bl^ck Republican candidate for Govern-
o>, by from ten to fifteen thousand ma
jority. The returns from Ohio indicate
increased Black Republican gains, and
the same unwelcome intelligence reach
es us from Indiana. These two latter
States, however, we did not expect to
see go otherwise than for Lincoln.—
And the Influences whioh were brought
to bear in Pennsylvania, and the imper
fect arrangement* for a fusion against
Curtin, account, in some degree for the
result ,$here.
The iron manufacturing interests in
that StMe are very consideable and the
number of persons dependent upon it
are great. For several years post, some-
of the manufacturing establishments
have been suspended, on account of
the low tariff on iron, and hundreds,
perhajp thousands of operatives thrown
out' ^employment. These, and all
others interested id this department of
industry will of course support that po
litical party which Is 4 most fully com
mitted t<> a protective tariff. Lincoln
and his mends have pledged themselves
in every way to carryout this policy
'and have .thus secured this vote in
Pennsylvaniai.whlch is by no means
inconsiderable.
Mr. Buchanan in 1856 received a large
proportion, oftfals vote, on account of
known hlgh'tariffproclivities, and he was
enabled, with this vote, and such as
State pride, and his personal influenoa
gave Mm^ to carry Pennsylvania. While
WO do n^t entirely despair, fet, we have
little hope of taking this Stato from
Lincoln, and we must now turn our
eyesto'New Yotk to rescue the Gov
ernment from fbedisgrncG of Black Re-
ppblicaq, m$tijfiv. 3pj[ the calamities
Which are almost inevitable.

A Pacific Hallway.
In his late report, Mr. Wadsworth,
Engineer of the Dalton A Jacksonville
Railroad, says: “From Cleaveland to
the Gulf at Pensacola or Mobile, your
Road can have no rival, and these are,
in fact the most important points of the
whole Southern seaboard. This seems
to be the point at which the future
commerce of the country is likely to
be concentrated, and a glance at a rail
way map of the United States shows
there are already several prominent
lines about being finished up all the
way from the great Northern Lakes.—
Upon this coast will eventually be built
up the great commercial emporium of
the continent and the ports from which
not only the productions of the South,
but also of the Northwest will find their
departure to foreign markets. Thus
the R. A J. Railroad in connection with
other liu«a travelling In the* same gene
ral direction will become one of the
important througlifares betweon the in
terior States and the tropics. Its suc
cess thus becomes of common interest
with these lines, and they are equally
-interested in its progress and the gene
ral features of its construction. Every
commercial, community perceives the
importance of reciprocal support and
when the advantages whioh will accrue
from the completion of the D. A J.
Railroad to the connecting roads is ful
ly understood, they will offer their hear
ty oo-operation and endorsement, for
the interest is one and identical, and
in aiding the construction of this they
but contribute to their own existence
and extension.
From Dalton Northeast there are at
this day 1320 connecting miles of rail-
^ ond, in operation reaching to Bangor,
the interior city of Maine, thence to
Halifax the most Eastern harikJf 'ipf the
continent 415 miles, of whichjtriqre than
two thirds of the distance is- operating
and the remainder in’progress towards
completion Southwestward.to New Or
leans, 520 miles (the Ala, & Tenn. River
Railroad is to bo completed to Jackson
ville by Feb. 1st. ’61, and the Selma A
Gulf Road is being worked with vigor)
and even to the Rio Grande, the west
ern border of Texas, 1220, this Great
Railway is in progress of Construction
for the greater port of the way. The
Rio Grande, Mexican A Pacific Railroad
will complete this extended, chain of
Railway.
Its whole length is some 3500 miles,
and with but few modifiestionl it is the
shortest and without doubt the most
practicable route for a Railway across
the continent. It is tangent to the
ooast of New England and the Gulf of
Mexico, the general bearing being about-
Northeast and Southwest. It passes
through some of the flourishing and
populous cities of the Union, and in
its latitude and longitude embraces the
road.
Of the Mexican portion of (tips “Conti
nental Railway” as It will eventual ty
iiornpe, it Is sufficient to say that lilfe.
ral charters have been given, and that
too, to citizens of .Ota United States,
and all other privileges that could ho
granted for tho favorable prosecution of
the work; and that Its progress has on
ly been staid by the unstable condition
of the government, The Railway wHl
not be arrested at the .border of Mexico.
The necessities of the commercial world
demand that the best route across the
oontinerft shall be made available and
that at an early day, and the progress tf
he age is of itself sufficient guarantee
that the ground will not long remain
‘unbroken” and unoccupied. The
opening trade of China and Japan, as
well as Australia and our own Western
coast require this to be done pronfpt-
iy.
The distance from New York to San
Francisco direct is about2800 miles; by
Monterey and Masatlan some 3800
miles; but the difference is much -less
than 1000 miles when the excessive
curvature of the northern route is taken
into consideration. All the commerce

In bis speech at the Court House

qualified him for the Presidency. He
remarked also that.he would have been

listened to the;solicitations. of his
lad to hear bim applaUd the course of
ohn Bell, by saying that be “nod stay

posed’that this should decide the claims
of tho great aspirants, and that as Bell,
even in the estimation. of the distin
guished Senator, had done better than
either of tho other opponents of Lin-
ooln, and, like a dignified candidate for
Presidential honors, “had stayed at
home and behaved himself liko a gen
tleman,” the people had better take
him.
Mr. Bem.’s Soundness.—One can
scarcely take up a Democratic paper in
this section without finding Mr. Bell
denounced as unsound. At the North
a different opinion prevails. Senator
Wilson, of Massachusetts, a fit col
league of Sumner, made a speech in
Jersey City not long since, and declar
ed that “John Bell hod been the most
eoruietent, most determined pro-slavery man
who ever held a seat in the Senate, lie had
cast over 50 votes directly against Freedom,

“Ion,” the Washington cores

U -Vnnrt tho same.
I learn from reports of Engineers who
have given their personal observation to
this Mexican part of the route, some
facts which may be well mentioned in
this connection and will bear compari
son with the various reports at govern
mental surveys to the Pacific.
The route through Monterey and
Masatlan is easily accessible to the
ocean, smooth in profile, pleasant in cli
mate, and abounds in materials, food
and labor, Ac., Ac. * * * As to the
cost of building the two roads and the
expense of working the contract is as
great as that of their climates. Politi*
cal considerations may force a road at
governmental expense by a route more
northern and circuitous, but this of all
the projected routes, connecting our
Railway system in the East with the
Pacific, it is believed will alone pay in
terest on the cost.
Out roR Bin, and Everett.—Wo
learn from the Alexodnria (La. j Consti

who has been for setae time past, acting
with tho Democracy^' has come out for
Bell and Everett. National men are
everywhere finding their true plaoe un
der the folds of the National flag and

Stii.l Another Accession.—We learn
from the Alexandria (La.) (Jbnstitutional,
that the Central Organ, published in the
Parish of Avoyelles, and edited by a
Democrat, has raised the Bell and Ev
erett fing. and come out for tho support
of the Union and the Constitution,
ggy*The Petersburg (Va.) “True
Democrat,” a Douglas Democratic paper,
argues that oil charges brought by the
Breckinridge Democracy against Bell
and Everett, beoause they do not answer
“questions,” will have to be suspended
until Mr. Breckinridge responds to the
interrogatories of Mr. Lamb. It odds
that “the great issue of this campaign is
Union or Disunion, and on that issue
there is no silent party but the Breck-
nridge party—no mum candidate but

_ _ 'In Fauquier county, Va., three

A Novelty in the Art World!
Photography upon Porcelain.
Secured by letters patent in tbe United State.-.,
England, France, and Belgium.
THE AMERICAN
Photographic Porcelain Co.,
No. 781 Broadway, NEW YORK,
MINIATURE LIKENESSES OF PERSONS
ON CHINA,
presenting all the attractive and advanta
geous features of ordinary photographs, the
brilliancy and finish of a water-color draw
ing, and a hitherto unattained quality of du-
ility, by being rendered ai imperishable
as the natural properties of the articles upon
which they are transferred. —
As the patented process of the Company
enables the reproduction of Photographs,
not only on plain surface, but upon such as
are round or of any degree of irregularity—
portraits can bo reproduced with faultless
accuracy, and delicacy of deliniation, upon
Porcelain wares of any description and di
mension used as articles of luxury or of
household utility, such as
URNS, VASES, BREAKFAST CUPS,
TOILET ARTICLES, AO.;
thereby securing faithful portraits and fur-
nishinga unique and exquisite style of orna
mentation of a: tides in domestic use.
In order to furnish facilities for the gratifi
cation of the popular taste, and to meet the
want* of those patrons of tha Fine Arts de
sirous of having Portraits on Porcelain, the
Company have imported from Europe a col
lection of ..superior porcelain goods, manufac
tured to their own order, which they sell at
cost prices.
As tho American Company are owners of
tho patent right, and consequently the only
persons authorised to use tho process, they
have determined, in order to afford people
in every eeotion of the Union an opportunity
to possess
, PORTRAITS ON CHINA,
to make the following proposition to
RESIDENTS IN THE COUNTRY.
Persons sending a photograph, ambrotype,
•r daguerreotype to the office of the Compa
ny in New York, accompanied by
FIVE DOLLARS,
will reoelva in return by express, free of
other charge,
A RICHLY ORNAMENTED BREAKFAST
CUP AND SAUCER,
with the portrait transferred thereon. By
transmitting a daguerreotype and
TEN DOLLARS,
they will secure In like manner,
A HANDSOME FRENCH VASE or TOILET
article;
with the portrait reproduced by the patented
process. By sending a pair of daguerreo
types and
FIFTEEN DOLLARS,
they will recelre in return
A PAIR OF RICH SEVRES VASES,
with the portraits exeonted equal to minia
ture paintings; and, in like manner, por
traits can be reproduced on porcelain wares
or
VASES OF EVERY QUALITY OF FINISH,
ranging in price from
$20 TO $100 THE PAIR.
