From the Petersburg Democrat. THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELEC TION, The result, anil indeed every circum stance of the Presidential campaign of '52, are in doubt and darkness. Such are the confusion and extraordinary combinations of parlies, that it is impossible to predict their action in any respect. Whether cither of the two great parties Can unite 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 unbroken and they be still found in col-1 leciedand determined antagonism?

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. abolition.

By this means, it is said, Mex ico hopes to recruit her finances. The most determined annexationists will pause, however, says the Philadelphia Ledger Rich Men in New York. A corres pondent of the Oswego Times, thus speaks of three rich men in New York. "Stewart the 'merchant prince,' t)r. Moffat and Wm. B.

If that is all he is worth, Dr. Moffat is the richer man of the two; but the probability is that Mr. Astor is worth over $3,000,000. Dr.. Moffat's dwelling house, with its out buildings, is valued at $ 1 90 000, and, ha o wns other property in the city to the amount of over a million and a half.
