THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELEC
TION, The result, anil indeed every circum

confusion and extraordinary combinations
of parlies, that it is impossible to predict
their action in any respect. Whether

its forces in support of one man, who that
man will be, and what his chances of sue
cess, are riddles as mysterious and incom
prehensible as that of the Sphinx. When
the flood of agitation and excitement
which now covers the face of the country
shall have subsided, will the old land
marks, and the relative position of parties
remain undisturbed? When the vel
mist and vapor which obscures the a
of the "hostile armies, has vanished before
the melting beams of the morning sun,!
will the ranks of the combatants "be left I

Dreadful Mortality. The Louisville
Courier of the 3d instant says: We learn
that the steamer Grand Turk, from New
Orleans, with a large number of emigrants
on board for St. Louis, lost 25 or SO of
her passengers by the cholera before the
boat reached Cairo. Seventeen had died
before the boat arrived at Napoleon and,
the disease was then raging terribly on
board. These unfortunate creatures were
transferred from the ship fever, and most
of them were in a deplorable condition.
The disease that proved so fatal must have
been a combination of ship fever and chol
era. The boat was very much crowded,
which but added to the fatality.

the probability is that Mr. Astor is worth
over $3,000,000. Dr.. Moffat's dwelling
