A number of new "strikes" have been made-those of a singlo week having added 550 barrels to the gross daily yiold of Tidioute, whioh is now set down at from 3500 to 4000 barrels. The daily production at Pitholeis estimated at about 2000 barrels, with a prospect- of large inorease. On the Eanawha, in the WoBt Vir ginia oil region, there are single wells said to yield 1500 or 2000 barrels a day. The Common Gounod of Albany have adopted resolutions looking to practical aid to the Fenians; and the Common Council of Troy, with the entire approbation of Mayor PLAGO, was to follow suit on the 1st. The Fenian Rifle Association held a most important meeting in Troy on the 80th ult., and were in session again on the 31st. Everywhere the circles of the organization exhibit more of - practical meaning in their attitude, in view of the approaching possible executions in Canada, than ever was known before. Anns are scattered in great quantities all along from White Hall to Bur? lington, and a largo quantity aro and havoboena long time secreted on Canadian Boil, at a point not far distant from St. Albans, Vermont. Tho Great Eastern, after hor cable pulling, is sadly in need ofa thorough overhauling, but ow? ing to her enormous sizo, it is yet c. question where ibo can bo laid up. On the 3d instant the direc? tors appliod to the Mersey Dook Board for permis? sion to have hor docked and' placed on a gridiron in Alfred Dock, at Birkenhead. Tho application was declined, because oven if tho padcUo-boxea were taken down, it would be very difficult to get the big ship through tho outrances, the wido?t be? ing but ono hundred foet clear, whilo, as she stood, tho Great Eastern was ona hundred and ninotoon feet wido. Thon, tho length of tho quays waB but six hundred feet, whilo that of the VOBBOI was six hundrod and ninety-two foot from stem to taffrail. Tho board would also have to pump five and a half millions of gallons of water out of " tho dock, and they had no appliance.? at prosont for doi ng so. In three months she might bo got through tho north? ern entrances, but even that, owing to tho strong currents, would bo a vory clangorous operation. So tho Great Eastern was at last accounts stiU afloat. Files from Bonnuda aro datod to the 20th of Oc? tober.

As exceedingly well written article, from tl pon ol' our distinguished Southern noYoli? Jon ii ESTEN ?OOKB, entitled "Along tl Jame?," besides a variety of other intcrcslii) matter, may bc found on our inner pages to-da; ELECTION RETURNS. Our readers will have been aware of the fa< that elections occurred on the Otb in the State of Massachusetts, New York, Delaware, Marj land, New Jersey, Illinois, Wisconsin, Mich gan, Missouri, Kansas and Nevada; and of tl further fact that the course of these electior was looked to with much solicitude in ever section of the country. It was not expect cc of course, that they would change materiall the relative strength of parties; but it was cor sidered of importance to know whether th tendency of public feeling was to sustain th j Government, or still further swell.the ovei shadowing power of the Republican party. The returns from all these States have nc been received, nor may those . which we hav received bc entirely accurate, but it is reasonn bly certain, however, that tho Republican have gained. There has been some diminutio of thc Republican majority in New York. Thei majority in 1865 was 27,800, and it is now sup posed to be between 5000 and 15,000. It is sup posed, also, that the Democrats have gained i: Delaware and Maryland, but these advantage have been vastly overbalanced by thc return already'recorded in favor of the Republicans In Massachusetts they have gained 22,000; ii New Jersey 3000; Illinois 10,000; Winoonsii 8000; that they have gained in Missouri is an nounced, though the amount ?B not stated; an< in all the other States, from which reports hav not yet come in, it is to be inferred that thei: success has been ?nore or lesB decided. It i; not to be expected that these results will hay< any practical effect upon the course of pol?tica event?. It was not to have been expected tha they could have been otherwise. The massci of the North, to whom the appeal was made haveacommon feeling that they have achieved ii the recent war some great material advantage to them the restoration of thc Union was not o the slightest consideration, and when the Gov ernmcnt went before those masses proposing that, as an act of justice lo the South, thoj should permit the restoration of the Union, pw in doing*so they should forego the power to op press it further, and was met . by the Republi? cans with the proposition that they should keej the States of the South as provinces to bc plundered at pleasure, there could have . beet no reasonable question of the course the massei would approve. Men love justice in the abst ract but tho most of them believe they pay ever} debt to virtue when they praiBO her, and few are willing to praotioe this or any other virtue at what they conceive to be their own expense This must have been evident to the Govern? ment before it accepted the issue, andras it ii certain it has determined to sustain its policy of restoration, it is to bo inferred that its course will be independent of these results. BALTIMORE DIFFICULTY. The difficulty in Baltimore is now, perhaps, concluded, and there is little possibility of fur? ther serious disturbance of the public peace. Thc Governor ha? determined to remove the Com? missioners, and has appointed other Commis? sioners to supersede them; but, though they refused to be superseded, procured warrants foi the arrest pf the Commissioners newly appoint? ed, and indicated the wish, if not the purpose, with force and arms, to fight the matter through, they seem ?o have subsided. General GRANT has been upon the spot with, a force doubtless considered adequate to back him ; and though the affair still lingers, we adhere to our opinion that no disturbance can occur. This is the conclusion indicated by the pre? sent condition of affairs. We think it not un? likely that an issue of physical force will occur between the Government and the Radical party. Each runnning a government upon tho same track, and in opposite directions, they may come to a collision, and the imminence of such a catastrophe is indicated by the excited state of public feeling upon the subject of this con? troversy. The removol of Police Commissioners, even in a city of thc size of Baltimore, is of itself a vory unimportant matter to thc country, and if it were a matter involving only thc interests and order bf that city, there would Boarccly bo j a paragraph about it. But as it is, the occur [ renco has oooasioned a profound sensation. ? From one ond of tho country to tho other thc feeling ?B intense at each phase of it? develop? ment, and public feeling, more perceptive of coming events Iban individual intelligence, attributes to this a significance very much be? yond that which is indioatcd on its surfaco. Wo still believe, however, that the time is not yet como. The stake is importan*!., and the j Radical party would bo glad to carry tho State { of Maryland, but,they aro not yet at tho point for which thoy will .madly play for it. Ready for an issue, and destined to an issue that will givo them .unrestricted control of tho Govern? ment, they wcro not ready for that issue in support of.'tho Baltimore Commissioners. The achievement of success would not justify the risk, while it is of thc last importance to them to koop the weather-gauge of law, and to do no act which will authorize the Government to usc its force in putting them down. Tho time may come, and will come, perhaps, when thc so called leaders ol' that party will not bo able to control it, and that thc ranks will make an issue, at whatever disadvantage, whioh will open up tho contest. But tho party has not come to that condition ot' disorganization yet. It is still susceptible of discipline. The prudonco of it* ablor members still directs it, and those members will find in Congress a better for ' the display of power than upon the 'si of Baltimore. GOT?ON PLANTING IN THE SAIIA, We have been favored, by a gentleman w official position gives him an interest in subject, with an article from thc Nassau 6 dian, upon the subject of cotton culture in Bahamas, and wc make a few extracts fro which may be of interest, to our readers. C menting upon thc expenses of raising cotto the Slate of Georgia, the estimate of which peared in one of the newspapers of (hat Si and particularly upon the heavy charge posed by thc Government; and remark also, upon the advantage resulting from fact that in thone islands thc cotton is pc niai, the writer makes thc following renn upon thc area open to that product: Thero are soveral inlands in tho Bahama which thero is abundance of crown land avails at tho upsot price of 10s. stg. an acre, for cot e. g., Inagua, Mayaguana, Acklin's Island, There aro other islands where private land ca purchased or rented for similar purposes ant easy terms, such as Crooked Island, Acklin's, I Island, Watling's, St. Salvador, and Exuma,1 its numerous cays. Since tho year I860 wages have risen for agn tural laborers from $6 to $12 a month. These, I ever, must deonne unlesB Borne profitable cult tion liko that of cotton can be established in agricultural laboring islands. Emigrants ace panying any capitalist disposod to embark in ton in the Bahamas on moderate terms would i dor tho business surer. With ordinary care and intelligence tho land i endure permanently, as the oofton in this clin is a perennial plant. At St. Salvador tho insects ronder tho ootto somewhat precarious btiH inonu, but not so at L> Island, and other islands. The profits on cotton must, of course, depi on the markot price of cotton in Europe. li supply exceeds the domand it will bo low-but i very in America boing no longor a competitor, chancos aro that, on an avorago, cotton will rai higher than it did prior to tho goneral cmanci tion in tho South. t Thore ia no export duty on cotton grown in BahamaB. An annual pruning of tho plant i top-dressing are requisite to keop it in health, i render it bushy and fruitful. Tho islands abo named are, we believe, better adapted to cot than the more westerly Islands of tho Baha ?roup, as they aro not subject to the same he, OWS, which lower the temperature, and somet?a cause the pod to drop in an immature state: 1 cotton has been profitably cultivated on New Pr idence and Andros Island, and there is no roat why every petty cultivator who grows an acre corn and potatoes for his family Bhouldnote ono acre, and if he has children, two, three, or ft acres of cotton-fields to his annual crop, whi would enable him to add immenBoly to the comf of himself and his family, meet the too frequi contingency of the failure of his corn cropB, a add largely to the wealth of the Colony. It ie said that a crop of oom and pumpkins ru be taken off the same ground as the cotton. Tl may suit thoso who have no ground or labor spore. But this is not usually the case, and aro inclined to think that the cleaner tho grou around the cotton plant is kept the better. O soil is not generally BO abundant or deep as to si ply nourishment for two crops on thc same grout To this article is appended the following si tistics of experiments, uponga small scale, it true, but which will present to the cnterprisi: planter the reasons for bolieving that, with ; enlarged experience, experiments could much improved upon; and that, consider? the greater security of investments under tl protection of the English Government, the islands present an inviting field for plantii , enterprise. 21?

S.-By tho abovo it will bo aeon that at tho present price a profit ?B undo of $35 por acre. We would not bc understood to commend to thc planters of our country, even under pre? sent, discouragements, to abandon it? fortunes. It is probable that, for a time at, least, wo may be at the caprice of a dominant and hostile party; but ive have still tho confidence that out of present political fermentation, a govern? ment will result in equal and just relations to Uie different sections of this country, and firm and strong enough to repress the aggressive tendencies of any section. But, it must bc con? fessed that, under proecnt circumstances, (lie discouragements toenterprise in 'bia section ave very great, and that thc opportunity presented by these islands, protected by ri stable and fos? tering Government, where thc culture of cotton would not only not bc discouraged by a direct tax of throe cents per pound, and (ho onerous machinery of an internal revenue police, but is actually encouraged by bounties exocediugly .attractive. Tho authorities of this country, perceptivo, as they ought t> be, of tho imper tance of that great proluot, uni of its liability to pasa from them by Uo superior induce raen te of these and other favored lands, should con? sider! whethfer? fr?jfn. jregard to,thlir^ ow? inter? est if not from a sense of justice to ..those en? gaged in planting.operations at the'South, a more liberal policy should not bo practised. It is loo much to expect that our planters will bo retained, by. a senso of patriotism, in a country of wh?se'G?ye?nment .they know nothing but its exactions; while it is reasonably certain that, upon^thesc favored islands, with their knowledge of the business, their habits of in? dustry, and within easy reach of commercial j centres, they have certainly, at present, the prospect of brighter fortunes.

These witnesses have declared in thc most explicit terms tliat tho preparation is a safeguard ngainst epi domlcs, a sovereign remedy for dyspepsia, a valuabio anta bilious medicine, a promoter of appetite, a genial and ^ harmlos? stimulant, a good acclimating medicine, a strengthener of tao nerves, a gonoral invigorant, a pro? tection against tho deleterious effects of malaria and im? pure water, and that it impiu'ta a degree of vigor and ac? tivity to tho vital forces which is not communicated by auy other of tho tonics and stomachics in azo. Under those circumstances tho self-preservative law of natura should teach ovory rational person who, either by reasoa of inherent debility or in consequence of exposure to un? wholesome influences, is in peril of losiug tho greatest of ail temporal blessings, HEALTH, tho importance cf using tho BITTERS, as a definitive medicine.
