ELEOTORAL TICKET. The election, so far as we have heard, has resulted very favourably for Mr. Buchanan. We are yet at aloss to account fully for his strong vote in many administration districts, unless it be that, as in this city and district, the friends of the administration, in very many instances voted for him. The folly of such a course, we have frequently pointed to no purpose- those who have committed the act will probably now, when it is teo late, see and repent it.

In this city, Buchanan's majority, it will be seen, is overwhelming -suffice it to say, that not a few illegal votes contributed to that effect. The persons who have been thus guilty, and their more distinguished advisers, will be ferretted out and dealt with, we hope, according to law. The spirit and character of Jacksonism on the election day was most our next, we shall probably touch upon this subject again. From the official returns which we have seen, Mr. Buchanan has 1062 votes of a majority over William Hiester, in the first district.

Wednesday half past 11 o'clock, A.M. Buchanan is now 1200 But how could it be otherwise, when 100 Adamsmen in this city voted for him? when the paupers, from the county poor house were brought in carriages to the polls to vote for him, and when boys not 19 years of age were not only permitted but solicited by certain men to -This is Jacksonism with a vengeance. A most base and cowardly conspiracy was formed by some of the Jacksonians to commit violence upon the person of the Editor of this paper on the election day. Who was to commit the who instigat ed and contrived it we are not certainly informed, but one thing is very certain, that one of a certain officer's whelps cretely discovered the plot, and by a timely precaution, we were enabled to escape with a 64 whole skin." Several of our peacable citizens were violently and unprovokedly assaulted on the election day, merely because they dared to vote the administration ticket. This is the budding of these things happen in the green tree, what shall we expect in the dry.

From the facts that have come to our knowledge, we have no hesitation in saying, that there was the grossest abuse of the elective franchise in this (the city) district, on the election day. We do not now attribute error to any particular person; but we do hope measures may be taken to find where the guilt is, and to have it punished. Well, indeed, might some of the Jacksonites boast of their anticipated majority, when they knew the sources from whence their votes were to come; but let them not boast, when the people -Every principle of honour seems to wither and die in the pestilential and Syrocean atmosphere of Lancaster City Jacksonism. Will the 4 corn fed' General tell us who insisted on a boy of only 17 years of age voting on Tuesday night? Do, Mr. puissant General, tell us.

Little Andrew was intelligent enough to know, and honest enough to say, he had no vote, and therefore would not cursed honesty is becoming a mere drug now-adays. Lud! how the Gineral swaggered on Tuesday--He thought he was among the 'corn-fed' boys. The farmers tell us that the hogs are the only corn-fed' boys in these piping times of peace. Does the General mean to call the poor people hogs? DELAWARE. The friends of the administration in this state, notwithstanding all the active forces of the Jackson party were ip full play, have been most gloriously triumphant.

Mr. Johns, the candidate for Congress has been re-elected by a majority of four hundred and twenty-two votes; and the Legislature, which elects the electors, is administration in joint ballot, by a majority of eight votes. The three electoral votes of Delaware therefore are now certain for the Administration. Maryland has thrown off the military yoke. She is now for the administration beyond cavil or dispute.

The military have been defeated in their strong places, and the friends of the tion, have marched unimpeded nearly through the whole state. The military cannot now expect more than two votes in Maryland, and we are led to believe, that even they are debatable." Every election, wherever held, brings new hopes to the friends of law, order and the constitution. The people, misled for a. season by the glare of a soldier's character and conquest, shouted Jackson, but the infatuation, like a summer's cloud, having passed away, and reason having resumed the empire which had been violently usurped by passion, they have come to a knowledge of their true interest and happiness, and their virtue and patriotism will never permit them to abandon the one or the other. There is too much virtue in the people to sacrifice a great? and good public wise prudent administration, upon the altar of military enthusiasm.

In a plain word, there is too much wisdom and knowledge in the people to turn out John Quincy Adams merely to make room for Andrew Jackson. We have received a letter from a gentleman in Hagerstown, Md. dated the 10th instant, which says, that "it is, almost impossible for General Jackson to obtain more than one vote in this state." "Fifty one Administration members of the House of Delegates, and only twenty seven Jackson have been elected." COMMUNICATION. TO THE PUBLIC. I have been informed that there is a report in circulation, that I had in my possession, and distributed tickets at the late General Election, on some of which was the name of John Buchanan, and on others, the mama.of Jos.

Buchanan, as candidates for member of Congress, instead of. James Buchanan. To this dishonourable, if not criminal, mode of electioneering, for the purpose of defeating a political enemy, it is unfair and improper to resort. I have been at considerable pains to trace the report to its source, but without success--and therefore publicly declare the report to be an absolute falsehood, and the author of it a scoundrel and calumniator; and further declare that I have never seen, had in my possession, or distributed, a ticket of the kind alluded to. E.

C. REIGART. October 16 LATEST FROM EUROPE. FROM THE SEAT OF WAR. The Russians have been repulsed from Chumla, after nine days hard fighting, with a loss of 40,000 men in killed and wounded.

The London Standard, (a ministerial paper,) says that this account has received general credit, and that it is confidently asserted that the English Government has received advices of the event. The Turks had 10,000 cavalry in the field. I Chumla, then, is not yet taken, and Varna is still in the hands of the Turks. It seems that the Sultan has neither been playing the fool nor the braggart for the last three months; for instead of 60,000 infantry he has 200,000, and instead of 10,000 cavalry, he has 30,000. The Turkish accounts state that in the camp of Chumla alone, there are 500 ces of cannon well served.

The foundry of Kophana has not been idle. Information has reached Paris, that the Russians have also been twice repulsed from Varna. The Russian Bulletins say nothing of these events--they are only framed for the purpose of celebrating the triumphs of the Czar, not of recording his defeats. If we believe the Russian, there is no reason why we should disbelieve the Turk. The character of the latter for veracity, is fully equal to that of the former.

With these remarks, we introduce the TURKISH BULLETINS. Constantinople, July The hopes which the Porte had conceived that its position on the northern side of the Balkan would form a bulwark against the Russian armies, has been nearly justified by a series of successful engagements fought since the beginning of July. It appears that the Russian commanders had not collected imposing, forces upon any particular point, but lost much time in partial attacks, which having been frequently repelled by the Turks, inspired the latter with great additional courage, and confirmed the Porte in the system of operations which it had adopted. The first bulletin from the Turkish head quarters arrived here on the announced an attack made by the Turks on the position of Hadschi OgluBazardschik, between Chumla and Varna, and their defeat, after having experienced a loss of 1,500 men. The day after, says the bultetin, the attack was renewed, and repulsed as before, chiefly through the courageous defence of the regular troops.

The Russians lost in this action many men, and six pieces of cannon. The saine day a sharp encounter took place between a Russian corps of about 15,000 men, with 20 pieces of cannon, and the Turks stationed at Moldavia, opposite Widden, on the left bank of the Danube. The Russians after an obstinate action of five hours, were repulsed; and lost on that occasion, 2,000 men in killed and wounded, and a great number of prisoners. They were even pursued to a considerable distance on the Wallachia territory by a column which debouched from Kalifat. On the 10th, a Russian corps of 4,000 cavalry, and from 4 to 5,000 infantry, was defeated by Alish Pacha at Taschilitope, and lost 600 horsemen, who were killed, and some prisoners, among whom was a staff'-officer.

From the 10th to the 16th, there were several conflicts less favourable to the Turks. Here therefore is a chasm in the communications by the Porte, which leaps at once to some skirmishes which occurred in the environs of Varna, and at a short distance from Chumla. On the 15th, 16th and 17th, the Russians made several attacks on the Turkish positions near Varna. They had succeeded in approaching that town, but the arrival of captain Pacha with considerable reinforcements, compelled them to fall back. On this occasion they are said to have had a Colonel taken prisoner, on whose person important papers were found.

Accounts from different parts of Spain mention the existence of great discontent among the soldiery, on account of their being so much in arrear of pay; at Cesta this is not only the tase as to pay, but even as to rations, and the garrison has hardly bread to eat. Dr. Gall, the celebrated Phrenologist, died at Paris on the twenty-second of August. It has been agreed, says the Journal of Commerce, that the umpire to decide the question respecting the boundary line between Maine and New Brunswick, shall be the King of the Netherlands DIED, In this city, on Tuesday evening last, Mr. FREDERICK D.

HUBLEY. OBITUARY. DIED, on the afternoon of the 5th instant, in the 48th of his age, Mr. JOHN BARR, afterta short but severe illness, which he bore with Christian tortitude and -His long standing as a merchant in this borough, had gained him the esteem and respect of a large circle of acquaintance; but it was only in the immediate, connexion his family which may be added, a lew private friends--that his character as a man was fully unfolded. To them he appeared in that truly amiable light, which, if universal, would render earth worth enjoying.

In the death of this amiable man, society bas been deprived of a bright ornament; a wife of a kind and tender husband; his aged parents of an affectionate son; and a widowed sister of her best friend.

Terms made known on the day of sale, by JOHN RUBY, Adm'rs. HENRY RUBY, AGRICULTURE. In order to disseminate extensively the advantages which flow from the developement of new resources aud valuable improvements in the Agricultural World, it is reasonable to presume that a medium for the accumulation and distribution of practical knowledge in sylvania, must prove of the first tance. A periodical Publication devoted to these purposes, if conducted with spirit and industry, cannot prove otherwise than eminently useful. Under these impressions, the Publish-1 ers have determined on offering to the agricultural community THE FARMER'S MAGAZINE, as a repository of useful information; satisfied they cannot render to their country a more valuable service, or better contribute to its permanent prosperity, than in subserving, as they hope to do, its agricultural interests.
