Huntington, U. Connecticut, diel on the 1st iust. S. Senator from EJECTIONS. NKW YORK. The election for State officers, except the Governor, took place on the 2d Nov,, being the first mi ller the new Constitution, we believe. The democracy are routed, "horse, fool and dragoons." ns the military phrase goes: owing to distentions which we have before noticed. ISut lc.-t some f our whig readers might think that we only say it was owing to those disscu t ioin, as an excuse, we will give them the word of one of tln-ir own presses, candid enough to admit it. The New York Courier and Knquirir. edited by " Col. Webb of the regular army ," suys : " It were folly to pretend that t lie whi.s alone have achieved this victory, or to deny that tliey have been very essentially aided, by the split in the ranks of their opponents." The wings have elected their Lt. Governor, and large inajrity aia Lcyt;fr.prf. all tfthar State officers, such t, .Secretary of State, Comptroller, Attorney General. Treasurer, State F.nginecr and Surveyor, Canal Commis sioners, and lnsicctors of State prisons. As we SJ'Mlast week, we' further state upon good authori- ty, that the vote was exceedingly small. In the city of New Y ork, the Journal of Commerce says that out of oO. 000 votes, only about ISO.OUO were polled. NEW JERSEY. Our intelligence of this election was partly incorrect last week. We stated upon the authority of the authority of the Washington Union, that the whigs had elected both their iovernor and Legislature 15ut later intelligence shows that th- democrats have elected their candidate, for Governor. Mr Haines. The Legislature is New Jersey Election. The Vhigs have carried 12 senators to Tthe iaine as it was in the election of last year ; and in the assembly they have " 39 members to 20 democrats, (last year it was 40 to 18.) On the other hand, the Trenton News estimates the majority of Mr Haines, the democrat candidate, at 2,715. It is a little singular that in the recent Kail elections, democratic Governors have la-en elected iu Maryland, : emt '(w .Ieriev lliilt the 1 .ei"isl:lt.lirB nr wllii . . , , . .. ... . , ... . Of course the whigs clann all these States because they have the Legislature; and by the same rule they always claim a State when they have onl the Ciov'nr. OHIO. The Ohio Statesman publishes a table compiled from the official returns of the late election in that State, by which it appears that although there is a majority of whigs iuthe Legislature, the whig 'majorities are small ones, find the democratic majorities large ones; and by this mean, there is an actual democratic majority in the State, excluding the abolitionists, of 1.503 PENNSYLVANIA. We notice this State election again for the purpose of correcting an error which the Observer j mad" and has failed to correct. That paper said that it j was "believed" that the democratic candidate for iovernor , was in a minority, counting the whigs. aloIitionists and' scattering votes. Since that the official statement has lieen published showing a majority of 5.0!td votes over all the above allied powers, as follows : Official Retkrtvs. The Harrisburac Arpus "jives an official list of the returns of the recent election for (Iovernor in Pennsylvania, which makes Shnnk's (dem.) vote Mfi,il7, and Irvin's (whia;) 123.3S; Shnnk's majority over Irvin 17, 77.

In regard to thin election, the New Or leans corresioudentf the Charleetpa Courier, says : "Wc have had exciting times here in the way of elections for a day or two past. They were not precisely of a party charac ter, as some of the democratic candidates were elected by whig votes and vice versa. "Wherever parties were, strictly arrayed, the whigs were rather worsted- They elected ten only out of the twenty repre sentatives to the State Legislature, and lost both the State Senators- Mr Landry, the democratic candidate for Congress, has doubtless been elected over Mr Thibo doaux, whig, and over Mr Jacob Barker, independent. Mr Emile Lapree, our pre sent democratic representative in Con gress, is also re-elected to a certainty over Mr Edgar Montegut, independent, who, however, only started in the race at the eleventh hour." THE BALL ROLLING. We notice that numerous meetings hare been, and are being held in various parts oftheSonth, particularly South Carolina, for the purpose of expressing the determination of the people not t submit U the unconstitutional demand of the Wijniot proviso. I IIRKN OLOUY.-The professors of this science contend lUa tlie constant exercise of anyone or more of the propen- Kltie: rf 11... K uuuu. win expand and enlarge those portions of the brain considered by them the sources of that propensity. Thia they argue upon the same principle that the man who labors will have large muscles, while the man vho performs no manual labor will have but small muscles, and their movements will not be very perceptible. Hence they argue that the working of that particular portion of the brain against the skull, wears the skull thin; so that a good phrenologist claims to be able to tell by look ing at a human skull exhumed and devoid of its living ap pendages, what were the prevailing traits of character of the individual. Of course every man has muscles, and every man has most of the propensities pertaining to the mind, in a greater or less degree. Take a man of slender frame, and he may use the sledge hammer for years, and he never will have muscles to swell and protrude with avery stroke of the hammer, like the man of athletic frame. So they argue fhat a man not hav ing that vigor of mind possessed by others, may study and apply himself close, and yet. although he will arrive at considerable proficiency, the man of superior mind with the same application will far outstrip him. Of the truth of the theory this far. we believe firmly. Cut what throws so much doubt upon Phrenology is the great number of exceptions to any rule of phrenology that can be laid down. The New York Atlas says that a very seedy and needy young gentleman, disappointed in love and business mat ters, has applied to Dr. Glover for a situation to personate "Job's turkey."

(Kf- The Legislature of New Hampshire, as well as that of New York, have passed resolutions affirming the princi ples of the Wilmot proviso. We have no means of knowing, hut we presume that a large portion of the democratic party, together with the whole of the whig party of the entire north, have resolved to maintain this doctrine, even though in direct violation of the constitution of the LTnitcd States. When New Hampshire gives in to it, we can have but lit tle hope from any other State. The question is assuming a serious aspect. The "whig State convention of New Hampshire have ac tually nominated an aboliti onist for Governor. Nathaniel J. Berry.

But pray, says my friend, tell me what good purpose that man answers, whose iuordiuate love of ardent spirits has gradually reduced him from the happy and respected arti san, to the beastly, besotted drunkard; reeling through the streets, breathing pestilence from his nostrils, and blas phemy from his lips outraging the proprieties of life, until he exhausted sinks into a gutter, to lave in its tilth, like the swine of the herd .' Ah ! it is a great mistake, if yout think that man answers no good end. Hard as ft may seem, an All-wise Providence may have selected victims to be offered up as a sacrifice to the public good. That man, so disgusting to others so I biirtliensome to himself and perhaps so painful to the part ner of his lite, and their little offspring, causing them to shed tears ofbitterness.it may be that he is set up before us as an example of the horrid degradation which awaits all who give full license to their appetites and full sway to their passions. He is as a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night; as a lloating buoy to warn us of the breakers of destruction. He suffers that mankind may benefit by his experience. Like the criminal who forfeits his life upon the gallows, or drags out his days in a prison: he suffers not from any revenge of the law. for it entertains none, but that his untimely end may stand out in bold relief as a beacon and a warning to his fellow-men.

The whig State convention in Con necticut lrave passed resolutions denouncing all further ac quisition of territory, uidess free from slavery. Several gentlemen of the convention in their speeches, I expressed their love fir Mr Clay, and their desire to vote i i-M",'-lu""" 1 . lor him as next t resident. These sentiments received ap- nlause from the convention. So it is some consolation to know that the whigs of Connecticut, while they will insist upon the Wilmot proviso, are willing to vote for a southern man for President. 37 The whig State convention of Vermont has adopted the Wilmot proviso as a part of the 4i creed" of the whigs of that State. Mr McKinly. si democrat, (editor of the Harrisburg. Ta.. I'nion) has l.ecii appointed Postmaster at Harrisburg, in place of Mr Peacock.

They were arrest ed as fugitives from service, and carried before Judge Haywood. The jury rendered a verdict in favor of the claimants. "While removing the slaves from the Court House back to jail for safe-keeping, one of them resisted, and the populace were considerably excited. In the disturbance the military had to interfere, a uniformed company: and some of the slaves were hurt. Order was restored, and the slaves lodged in prison to be taken by the owners. An abolition paper gives another case a follows : Fugitive Slavb- Case. A southerner arrived at Tow Hill, Pa., in search of a fugitive slave, whom he discovered and arrested in a corn field. The owner and his party started for Lancaster with their prize, but were overtaken at .Mount Plea sant by a large delegation of Tow Ilillers, men and women, who had received infor mation of what was going on, and started in pursuit, determined on a rescue. These were armed with guns, pistols, knives, clubs, handspikes, broomsticks, and such other war-like equipments as were at hand. The party proved too strong for the south ern gentleman, and succeeded in recap turing the slave, and he was marched back to Tow Hill, and there disposed of in such a manner that all further trace of him was lost, and the slave hunters may as well put him down to the account of profit and loss. Another slave, who was working in an ad joining field, was fortunate enough to dis cover his hunters in time to make his es cape to the woods, which he did with as much despatch as his power of locomotion would admit, 37" Mr Edwin Croswell. the veteran editor of the Al bany Argus, informs his readers that he retires from public life. This, we fear, hae been brought about by the dissen tions in that State. It is matter of regret that the editor of the Albany Argus should leave his post, for he has becu one of the firm friends of the South, especially in the late course of the democratic party in that State. Mr Croswell took the side of the constitution, and opposed the Wilmot proviso. Ot?" Corn will scarcely sell for more than 25 cts per bush el at Charlotte. N. C. says the Jeffersonian. SLAVE TERRITORY. We all know that ever since the formation of a government by the inde pendent States of North America, there have been heartburnings and jealousies between the north ern and southern sections of our country; and in later years the great west has grown up, and forms another party to the same feelings. The annexation of Texas has, we fear, excited this jealousy still more, and alarmed the northern people at the increasing weight of southern pow er. Overbalancing the south in power during all this period, in the Congress of the U. States, the north has rested in some measure content; but now that the south has receiv ed an import ant accession of territory and prospect of consi derable more, she fears that the sceptre is about to depart from Juda. And she comes forward and tenders a condition upon which such territory shall become a part and parcel of the American Union; a condition at variance with and in viola tion of the common compact signed sealed and ratified by the States; as the law of the land, to guide us all. Now, why tender this condition in the face of the law? Why not alter the law itself in preference to violating the law? According to this condition now tendered, the South has no choice : the north can overrule her in Congress, and the north can say we w ill take this territory, but no slavery shall exist in it ; or the north can say, we will forgive Mexico the debt ; our citizens to whom she owes millions, must get their dues the best way they Can; we want no inore.territory. "In the first instance the South is wronged only, but in the second the whole Country is wronged. What can the south do in either of these cases ? She must either submit, or dissolve the Union. To do either the South must be.united. m " L- As we nave before mentioned, a number of meetings held in the South, seem to indicate that she is determined to demand her rights un der the compact of the cons titution or dissolve the political copartnership. Probably it would be better if a line were struck. But time only can show which isthe wiser course. LATUM FIIOM MEXICO.
