The intelligent Washington editor of the Journal of writes as follows Washington, Nov. 2. We are looking with intense interest, to the result of the New York state election.

The prevalent idea here is that the democrats will elect a majority of senators and assemblymen, but that the whigs will carrylheir ticket for state officers. Should the hunkers be defeated, it will do much lo establish, not only in New York 4'A the uou slave holdine states, tho principles ot llie Wilmol proviso. Our late defeat ono of the most sweeping and thorough that ever happened is undoubtedly owing to the fact that a majority of our convention nt Syracuse declined to endorse the principles of (he Jef fereoniau proviso for so it should be called. The immortal author of the declaration of independence is as much thooriri uutorof the proviso as Columbus was the discoverer of this continent. Vespucius had his office, and Mr.

Wilmot has his. It is an error to say, however, that tho Syracuse convention decided against that principle they only let it alone" aud not a Jew very plausiblo reasons were given for this course, too. But even this, it seems, would not satisly the people. We must plant our eelvea firmly on the side ofjreedom, and openly espouse it. The late election is a terrific wamiurr of the folly of all half way policy iu such matterslol all compromises that neither receive or reject a great idea, to which the people are once fully awakened.

Yes: the people are now fully awakened to this matter of enacting slavery into new aud free ground. It is idle to attempt staving off its discussion. It is the topic. Men must wear their opinions about it ou their faces, and in their tongues for the great mass of the democracy say, in tones of thunder, that they will not be trifled with. If a man bo sincerely of the belief that the evil of slavery, as a thing to be introduced into the new ground, should not be met hv this Jefferson iau ordinance, cr something like it, let him entertain that opinion, we say with all our heart.

Only let him deliberately announce it as his doctrine, that the people may know where to find him, and that he future may know what to do with him' He may bo as honest as Aristides ouly let him be as frank. The day is not far distant when politicians Will be as eager to prove that they were in this matter on the side of freedom, as ever were men to escape companionship with the cholera or yellow fever A L. veraicl ew York, on the subject of Pviso, is inaeed a most emphatic one. But six short months have passed away, ay, not so since the democracy of this state, with the serenity and strength of a giant, achieved with calmness a complete triumph iu its state ticket, aud showed a palpable majority of sixteen or eighteen thousand. Moreover tho well kuowu drill in and discipline of our party should be taken into account Does any man believe that wi this immense preponderance, aud this almost military party obedience, the great body of the peopl could have frowned upon us, and drawn aside from us iu wrath, through any common reason Think not so for one moment The people are not in the habit of wheeling about on their likings so suddenly.

They have not learned, either to back aud fill, to expand and contract their faith on the India rubber principle for it is uo political fickleness that has made this mighty change. They love our party yet but it must be true to itseir, and to its great duties true to the me mory of the revolutionary fathers who fouMit for freedom, and not for slavery true to him, the" calm browed one, and the noblest democrat of them all, that, in his original draft of the declaration of American independence, inserted as one prjmo charge against the Icing and parliament of Great Britain that they had not taken measures to prevent the extension of slavery iu the colonies. Have the ages bo rolled backward, and humanity with them, that what we went to war to stop, seventy years arr0, we shall now keep up a war to advance Beautv of air tight rooms Some excellent remarks just now meet our attention in the Salem Gazette, on the subject of the ventilation of houses. It may be asserted, and with truth says that print that iu a few of our buildings attempts have been made to introduce some external air vet how insufficient the supply is, may be gathered from the fact that many persons who value their health refrain from going into our crowded lecture rooms, while others constantly experience headaches, lassitude and exhaustion alter an evening spent iu them There are indeed no persons who do not suffer from breathing an impure and close atmosphere, whether they arc at the time sensible of it or not. In nine coses out of ten, it is not the warmth of a church which causes a shivering going out of it, it is not the heat of a lecture room which flushes the face, it is not tho glare of lights in the ball room which makes the head throb with aching but it is the foul, poisonous atmosphere which they contain.

Must this state of things continue Wo trust not. Public attention has been drawn to the importance of the subject, iu some of our sister cities and various modes of remedying the evil have been introduced. Those who are entrusted with the erection of school houses and other buildings for public uses are earnestly studying the best methods of admitting and securing an ample supply of fresh, external air I it Tint cnliir.t i LIJC beI ions consideration of wjuie ui our public uunumgs aim nans yve do not ask them to make i any costly experiments; wo do not urge the claims oi any ol the various modes of purifyine the atmos puero oi crowded public rooms. Wo only ask that it should bo made the duty of somo one in authority to see that the free admission of fresh uir is secured in every public assembly that the doors and windows of our public halls should never bo suffered to be closed upon an audience, unless some more convenient and effectual mode of changitir the air is adopted. i The Adverts, tracts from our nonPr tence in which every thing is perfectly ship shane, nrttl a iuuu crow because we use tho fnrm vividest," as the superlative or vivid.

With a probablo majority against it in the popular branch of the na tional legislature, and but a small, and it is to bo re gretted, not a very harmonious majority in its favor, iu the senato, it may be called upon lo vindicato the past, and will be obliged to support, possibly for an indefinite period, a distant, and difficult foreign war.

The existence of that war has received the official sanction of every department of the government which is required by the constitution, and it is du to the future fume, as well as present prosperity of this groat nation, that it bo triumphantly sustained Whatever may hereafter bo the propriety of instituting inquiries into the necessity of its occurrence with a view to the just responsibility to public opinion of our public servants, such au investigation may, at this time, and under existing circumstances, as well upon principles of sound political morality, as of national expediency, be well regarded as out of season. Tho war cannot now bo concluded with honor, unless wo receive from Mexico a just indemnity fortho past, and reasonable security for the future. If these be not obtained, tho survivors of our gallant army, who have by their deeds of valor confirmed the respect and compelled the admiration of the world, cannot be brought home without impeachment of the laurels they have so nobly won, nor the memories of the heroic dead shielded from the reflection of having sacrificed their lives in a worse than useless contest. These solemn duties must be performed, it is to bo feared, with perhaps a few honorable exceptions, without the proper aid of au opposition, numbering in its ranks many gentlemen of great talents who have had an unusual share of legislative experience, and aro well versed iu the tactics of partisian warfare. Under circumstances so adverse, the real friends of the democratic candidates for nomination will wtfully misjudge the interetts of their favorites, if, without despairing of the republic, for that is a feeling unkuowu to the democratic heart, but, disdaining sinister influences and purposes of every description, they do not limit their rivalship to the wisdom and efficiency of their effort to extricate the country from the difficulties aud dangers by which it is encompassed.

Sincerely hoping that such may be the patriotic course of all, I am very respectfully and truly your inena, in. VAIN liUKKN. Sa.iicel P. Collins, esq. editor of Republican Farmer, Wilkesbarre, Pa.

How THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM IS ADVANCING IN Italy. By the steamer Philadelphia wo get such a continuation of the news from Italy as to cheer still the hearts of the lovers of freedom The pope, thus far the noblest that ever wore the triple crown, advances boldly, and the people are not yet put dowu. God grant that both may continue to hold their own against the oppressions of the big and little tyrants of that ancient peninsula The followin is the sum of the latest news: Accounts from p'errare to the 27th ofSeptember, announce the introduction into the city, by the Austrian government, of munitions of war. But rumors were current at Rome or tho probable withdrawal of tho Austrians from Ferrare, and that Austria had agreed to give the poutificia! government possession of two foils iu the cily. The custom hous at Plai sancn refused to permit the passage of munitions of war for the Roman army and the Austrian government has prohibited the introduction of portraits, statues, or medallions of tho pope.

Subsidies had' arrived from Italy. The city guard of Naples have acted with more vigor ihau the royal troops. Great excitement exists iu the province of Molise. At Rome, the prince of Syracuse, brother of the king, gave a good dinner, at which the sympathisers with the revolutionists of Sicily carried their enthusiasm so far, that the minister of Naples withdrew from the banquet, highly i.fiended. The death of Gen.

Nuu zeante is announced. Naples is comparatively a be sieged city. In the evening nothing but gendarmes is met, who are ordered to lire upon the people at the first cry of liberty. I he guards have been reinforced. At the palaco of the king cannons are kept loaded, aud torches ready lighted to discharge them.

The students are in a great state of exasperation. They can neither receive letters nor money from their parents, nor obtain passports to go home. Andrea Domeo, chief of the Calabriau bauds, had defeated Gen. Nuuzante, whose death is announced. He drew him into a mountain pass and there defeated him.

A detachment of artiliery belonging to the guard of Morgi anahad joined the insurgents. It is said in private letters thut tho reformers of Naples have diviced themselves into three columns. Tho first division is called the legion of death, and forms tho advauce guard, commanded by Longobero. The centre is commanded by Romeo, who has seized upon Margiauu, a large depot of arms and munitions of war. The rear guard is under the command of R.liiin.

The circus. The last performance of Sands Lent's circus took place lust evening, and the tent was crowdod to repletion. They depart to day for Baltimore whore thoy have an engagement. Tho very groat success which this exhibition has met with hero would seem to imply that any meritorious exhibition of a permanent character would be well sustained in Brooklyn. Is it not about time for this city to be independent of New York, iu some measure, in the way of resources for amusement? There is reason to beliovo that something of the kind might be supported here.

Police court. The revelations at this establishment for seycral days past bavo not been of a very remarkable character.

He is in jail awating au examination Wo also record that Theodore Formau and John Loyd were arrested yesterduy, on a charge preferred by Charles Carman keeper of a public house, no.

Extract of a letter from a highly respectable source at Vera Cruz to a gentleman of Washington city: Vera 1847.. I write, but have nothing worthy of a letter. By the way of Orizaba we have dates from Mexico to the 6th, at least from Queretaro, where you kuow the Mexican government, if it can be called oue, is. On tho 4th, all was quiet at the city uud the new American government going on swimmingly. When I wrote you lost, Santa Anna had made his appearance with some 1500 cavalry near Puebla, and there joined Generals Aivarez and Rea, or they joined him.

Since which the government at Queretaro has pr dered Santa Anna up: aud it is doubtful among the wise Mexicnus whether he is ordered up to be hung by the neck until dead or to ho made president again one is as likely as tho other. These three generals nan wnn mem at t'uebla about aUUll troops; they endeavored to break up Col.Childs, who commands the city, from his fortification; thev would march up lo him aud then march back agaiu. Finding uie coiv.u qo mm no narm, and learning that Gen. Lane hud left Jalapa with 3,500 men, the troops, in companies, with their officers, deserted, and Santa Anna writes so to thn government. The information that reinforcements are on their way has clear the way of our trains; but I regret to say though we have so Urge a force about this city, th guerrillas are more bold than ever.

Yes'erday thei er mo mil luuuf, ann i presumo tiiero i uuLhiuv in eruav thev came within three miles, and this morning our market is very slim of provisions but I think Gen. Patterson is preparing to send out a secret expedition on different routes, and by that means will cut them up. He is determined to break up the den. By our hist accounts from the Mexican povern ment they had called in Senor Cuevas, the former minister, who, you know, is one of their most intelligent men, aud a peace man at that. He declined until negotiations should be opened.

God grant it War is dreadful, both to the victors and the victims and if they do not retreat soon iheir nationality will be lost. Gen. Patterson will move up in four or fivo days with over 4000 men. So that with those with Gen. Gen.
